Does Fire Emblem:Three Houses turn up the
heat on combat?

00:00:09.720 --> 00:00:12.460
Let's just say it sizzles, but doesn't quite burn.

00:00:12.460 --> 00:00:15.580
"Well, then I guess it's up to me 
to guide you from now on."

In this tactical fantasy role-playing sequel,
players take on the role of a military academy

00:00:21.400 --> 00:00:24.960
professor tasked with training students for
a coming battle.

00:00:24.960 --> 00:00:27.840
"Well well, scored a teaching gig, did you?"

00:00:27.840 --> 00:00:31.840
The fighting here can be intense at times
but never gets too graphic.

00:00:31.840 --> 00:00:37.470
Attacks involve swords, axes, and arrows,
as well as various types of magic.

Defeated enemies grunt, fall to the ground,
and just disappear.

includes themes of duty, nobility, sacrifice,

00:00:54.100 --> 00:00:59.820
