Conquest's gameplay isn't just pretty good. Its easily top 3 in the franchise. Perhaps the very best.
What's shocking is how bad the story is. Its not just mediocre, like Awakening's, its outright madness in how every choice is made. It feels like this strange combination of too many cooks in the kitchen and 'production targets' from above -- game must have children, must appeal to children, must not have politics, etc.
An edgelord might say that's irrelevant. But its not. I never hated a Lord as much as I hated Corrin. I wanted him to die a painful death and I relished every moment in the story he felt like shit. So I made the most of it by killing all his friends and letting him die at the hands of BETRAYAL. The canon ending, in my mind.
