^ There is some weird other world gate that they travel through to meet these characters.
Fire Emblem is just trying to reach out more casual gamers (hence casual mode) and while I do agree the series has a more realistic look and has added a few gimmicks here and there, it has not gotten to the point where they should change the name of the franchise like some other games should. (like Final Fantasy and maybe Sonic)

Don't get me wrong, Fire Emblem as a game is still great, and as long as the true core mechanics stay intact (though that is becoming increasingly worrying with the advent of the "perma-death" having an off switch) I'll still get the games. It just seems to me that Fire Emblem is losing part of its soul, and this series should take up a different name for it's mantle in order to preserve Fire Emblem's "honor".
