Just started Fire emblem engage

[TheWanderer]

So basically I just started the game after finishing 3 houses
But the story is rough like there is nothing eye-catching
Does it get good afterwards ?

The story? No. The gameplay however is one of the best in the series, though the balancing with crest warrior rings are a bit off. Unless you like cheesing games, I'd recommend going a playthrough without using them.
No Fire Emblem has ever really had much of a well written story, it's just there. Engage kind of embraces that and doesn't even try, going for the more draquest-tier simplistic adventure feel. A real departure from the themes of war it's really known for, but either direction it would've been rather simplistic like always.

Are at least any of the characters appealing to you? I find that pretty important in tactical rpgs.

Though 3 houses had a decent enough story tbh I liked the bit of teaching a class and all that

I'm still early on ,chapter 3 maybe but up until there .The characters felt generic tbh .the only thing that keeping me going is as you said the gameplay. I liked the presentation in this one and I'm playing it on hard so there is a little challenge .but the thing is I'm a dude who craves a good story.
Nothing mind blowing but something that keep me interested to see what's going on and I'm easy to please btw.
