I got an idea. Let’s rank all the FE games!
To make this easier for you, I’ll be going by every five games.
All the criterias are ranked on a scale from 1 to 5.
These are:
Story
Characters
Gameplay
Music
and Difficulty
At the end of it I’ll create a ranking based on which games you think are the best and the worst in the series.
Here’s a link to the first poll:
Rank them fair, do not let nostalgia guide your hand!
Ok, GBA games go in F tier then 
EDIT: I am a terminal moron and forgot this doesn’t have the GBA games
So for Difficulty is 1 like super hard and 5 is easy peasy? Or is it more of super unfair and fair?
It’s bullshit/unfair - fair but challenging
Cool Idea, lets try it!
cool I can finally rate genealogy gameplay as horrible
All right!
Here’s the second poll!
Today we rank FE6- FE11
So!
Today’s the day for the third poll.
We will rank FE12 - FE15. FE14 has been split into three and these were in fact separate games.
Have fun and vote!
Alright! This is the last poll. We have to rank the four routes of 3H, each separetly.
Finished, willing to see the results 
Can’t wait to see GBAemblem low ranking.
please please please please please please please please…
jk
So! Voting’s over! Now, I’ll present to you the results, which are… interesting.
By the popular vote, the FE game with the best story is:
The second place belongs to FE4 with 4.41 points and the third to FE5 with 4.02 points.
The award for worst story goes FE14 “Fates” - Revelation route with an abyssmal 1.33 points.
I must say I’m surprised. I was sure FE4 would win by a large margin, but it seems you really like the FE9 story!
FE15 and the Blue Lions and Golden Deer routes of FE16 made it high, too. From the Kaga games, FE4 had the best story, from the GBA age it was FE8, FE9 was the best of the peroid before Awakening. Awakening was bashed very hard, getting the penultimate place before all the Fates games.
The award for the best gameplay of the series goes to:
Not very surprising, Conquest is universally agreed to have the best gameplay despite its abysmall writting.
The second place goes ex equo to Blue Lions route of FE16 and FE10 with 3.86 points. Next we have the Golden Deer route with 3.83 points (closely followed by Black Eagles route with 3.8).
The award for worst gameplay goes to (again) Revelation. It’s a bad game.
Surprisingly FE6 got much worse score than the other GBA games.
The award for the best characters in the series goes to:
Seems you really like FE9!
The second place goes to FE15 with 4.2 and the third to FE4 with 4.02 points.
Not really surprising all of these games are known to have great characters and story.
And the “award” for the worst story goes to:
Birthright!
Yes, not Revelation. I agree with that verdict - Birthright characters are so blad and boring.
And the award for the best music goes to:
Technically the second place goes to Black Eagles and the third to Golden Deer, but I decided to merge FE16 for this one (since the music is mostly shared) which gives them a second place with 4.21 points. The third place goes to FE10 with 4.11 points.
The award for most bland OST goes to FE1 with 3.28. It’s kinda obvious as it was the first game and the software wasn’t particulary great yet.
The difference isn’t very big though, the music is very good through all of the series.
And the award for the fairest diffculty in the series goes to:
The second place is FE8 with 3.62 and the third FE7 with 3.5
The difficulty seems to be either “OK” or “BULLSHIT” There’s little in between.
The award of most bullshit difficulty unsurprisingly goes to FE5 with 2.35 points. Well, it’s FE5 after all.
The award for the best FE game ever made goes to:
(drum rolls)
Wow, you really like FE9. I must say I did not expect that. I would think that either FE4 of FE16 would win. But no - FE9 won! Nice!

I would like to thank everyone who voted. You guys and gals are the best!
I can’t say I’m surprised with these results but I’m not happy about it either
This is really interesting! Thanks for the effort!
Wow, this sure was interesting to participate and react to, but i have the feeling that very, very few people participated, which mean we lost a lot of opinions and diversity.
Welp, maybe in the future we can repeat again.
Anyways, thanks for the effort Jey, this was really cool.
About 30 people per vote. It wasn’t bad.
Im mean, yea, its not bad. But 30 from, for example the 500 views this post has its low.
Cool data honestly. Nice
I knew people loved Tellius! Overall, these results seem pretty fair (Even if they were only decided by a handful of people)
The thing that surprises me the most is the Gameplay section. FE4 over FE6? Really? It even got beaten out in characters, too… But I guess that’s just personal taste.
I wonder if we could do this kind of polling in the future, too. Maybe ask questions like “Which Fire Emblem games have you played/beaten”, “Which game is best balanced with permadeath in mind”, etc.
