@Satsuma incredibly persuasive recommendation, i am putting it on my wishlist immediately. thank you so much
@pho4cexa 3 houses is probably the mainstream starting point—it’s also getting a sequel in September which will probably give its ao3 cred a boost.
if you like game boy advance games Sacred Stones and Fire Emblem (called by its JP title Blazing Blade by fans) are both free on the Nintendo Switch’s gba emulator (and easily available on any other gba emulator one might have access to)
@pho4cexa I would like to take this opportunity to recommend you play Fire Emblem which is like 50 works short of six digits and also a series with many enjoyable games
(the tag for the sonic games series has 12,083 works, for comparison)
