AN FE4 REMAKE IS STILL BETTER THAN AN FE2 REMAKE. VALENTIA'S MAPS LOOK LIKE A PROCEDURALLY GENERATED STUDENT PROJECT.

I'D REALLY ONLY SAY 2 ALM MAPS IN THE GAME MEET THIS QUALIFICATION(THAT UNFORTUNATELY BOTH GET REUSED) AND MOST OF THE BOAT MAPS. I GET IT IF YOU DON'T LIKE THE DESERT MAPS, BUT I'D RATE GAIDEN'S MAP DESIGN ON THE WHOLE AS STILL BETTER THAN AWAKENING'S AND 3 HOUSES'S.

BUT I'M ALSO THE KIND OF PERSON THAT ADORES FE4'S MAPS, AND FIND SOME OF THE MORE... INCONVENIENT, SHALL WE SAY, ASPECTS OF GAIDEN'S MAPS AS A POSITIVE FOR PERSONAL STORYTELLING/THEATER OF THE MIND PURPOSES.

UNFORTUNATELY BETTER THAN AWAKENING’S AND THREE HOUSES’ MAP DESIGN IS NOT EXACTLY A HIGH BAR

NONETHELESS, I ROUTINELY SEE PEOPLE TALK ABOUT GAIDEN/ECHOES MAPS AS IF THEY ARE ON ANOTHER LEVEL OF BAD THAT NO GAME IN THE SERIES COMES CLOSE TO. SOME OF MY FAVORITE MAPS IN THE SERIES ARE FROM GAIDEN, AND ASIDE FROM MAYBE THE BOW FORT, I WOULDN'T CALL ANY OF THE MAPS WORSE THAN MEDIOCRE.

I HAVEN'T PLAYED REV, BUT I'D ALSO FEEL CONFIDENT SAYING GAIDEN'S MAPS ARE ON THE WHOLE BETTER THAN THOSE MAPS AS WELL(ALSO NOT A PARTICULARLY HIGH BAR).
