With the recent release of Fire Emblem Fates, I have a question; what exactly is the point of Birthright and Conquest when Revelations exists?
For those that don't know - Fates takes place before before even the very first Fire Emblem, even before Marth etc. ever was. Birthright is supposed to be what happens if the Hoisido win, and Conquest if the Nohr are sided with and win.
But even before the release, Nintendo revealed the existence of Revelations, which is the ACTUAL story, and the only version of the story that allows the future Fire Emblem games to actually occur. So I kind of have to wonder...what is the point of Birthright and Conquest if you've relegated them to "What-if?" stories before they're even released? They're basically fancy Outrealm DLC, with Revelations being the only one that matters.
Does anyone know what exactly they do in the two other version to make them relevant? I won't be finding out personally, since I won't be spending my own money on the game and I don't think I'll be getting it as a a gift anytime soon either.
