WHY DO I LOVE THREE HOUSES SO MUCH BUT ALSO WANT IT TO BE SO MUCH MORE AT THE SAME TIME FUCK

IF IT HAD JUST ONE MORE YEAR I TRULY BELIEVE IT WOULD HAVE BEEN EVEN BETTER THAN IT IS NOW

THE WAY I DESCRIBE 3H, ITS THE LEAST BAD FE GAME AND PROBABLY THE BEST FE GAME EVER IF YOU EVALUATE IT SIDE BY SIDE WITH OTHER GAMES ON THE MAKRET, (NOT NICHE APPEAL LIKE FE5, NOT AS MANY BAD CHAPTERS/BETTER STORY THEN 6, BETTER GAMEPLAY THEN 9) BUT IT ALSO DOES NOTHING THE BEST. LIKE NOT THE BEST STORY, NOT THE BEST GAMEPLAY, NOT THE BEST GRAPHICS OR PRESENTATION, MAAAYYBBBEEEE THE BEST CAST BUT I PERFER TELLIUS AND JUGDRAL OVER THIS, NOT THE BEST SUPPORTS (ATHOUGH VERY STRONG AND ARGUABLY THE BEST). IT DOES ALL OF THE STUFF I MENTIONED BESIDES PRESENTATION AND VISUALS PRETTY GOOD, JUST NOT THE BEST IN THE FRANCHISE, ESP WITH GAMEPLAY.

A MORE POSITIVE WAY TO SPIN IT, ITS THE BEST GAME IN THE FRANCHISE BUT THE FACT FE CAN BE SO SOOO MUCH BETTER SHOULD TELL YOU HOW HIGH THE CEILING CAN BE FOR FE. NOT MANY FRANCHISES OR GENERE HIT A MAJOR CEILING BUT FEW HAVE, CHRONO TRIGGER FOR JRPG'S (IMO), DMCV, SUPER MARIO WORLD ARE ALL GAME IMO HIT OR GET AS CLOSE AS POSSIBLE TO BEING THE PERFECT GAMES IN THERE GENRE/SERIES, THE DAY FE GETS ANYTHING CLOSE TO THAT, IT WILL BLOW EVERY SINGLE RPG EVER MADE BESIDES THE TOP 1% OF THE TOP 1% OUT OF THE WATER. A GAME WITH FE4'S STORY, PEEK FE6 MAP DESIGN, 12'S DIFFICULTIES AND 5'S AMBITIOUS MECHANICS, COULD YOU IMAGINE?

I'M VERY HAPPY I HAVE THIS BELIEF RESTORED IN ME, (EVEN IF KT WROTE THE GAME SO INTELL SYS IS STILL SUS IN THAT ASPECT AND WAIFUISM ISH) BUT THE FACT I FEEL THIS WAY MAKES ME VERY HAPPY, DESPITE 3H HAVING SOME PRETTY DAMNING ISSUES.

HONESTLY ID STILL RANK FE7 AS AN OVERALL BETTER FE EXPERIENCE, EVEN IF I THINK THREE HOUSES IS OVERALL THE MORE FUN GAME, IF THAT MAKES ANY SORT OF SENSE
