FNGC Reviews: Fire Emblem Fates (ft. Jala Prendes)

This week Nick is joined by Jala - of Jala-chan's Place Podcast - to review what is arguably the most infamous title in the FE franchise: Fire Emblem Fates! This 2016 TTRPG is a fascinating game to dig into and I'm frankly astonished that it exists to this day. From the updated mechanics, the deceptively good(?) map systems to even the mind-boggling "face-petting" with that 3DS stylus - we got it call covered in this review! As always, let us know what we missed and who was your favorite character from Birthright, Conquest or Revelations!
