I would still recommend a Blind Lunatic run to Fire Emblem Veterans for the uniqueness of the early game difficulty. I liked the Puzzle Emblem and how it forces you to play a certain way aka clear out as many enemies as possible with your strongest unit and if you don't like it, don't touch Lunatic again but at least try to get as far as you can. Since this is not a review I didn't want to straight out recommend it in the video but I did so here if you're interested enough to read.
Forgot to mention a couple of things: best Boon for Robin in my opinion is DEF as it allows him to be able to tank the mostly physical enemies earlier and gain EXP which will snowball faster into his other stats. Magic is another reason why Robin is good as it gives 1-2 Range cover and targets the usually lower RES stat early on. Virion actually did some work with his 2-Range, only ones with Bows at base so even the good ones went to him, and has effective damage against Flyers. Supports are busted in the stats they give. With no-grind it's probably optimal to not train the backpacks/units. Rallies are pretty good.
TLDR - Story and Characters are meh, tier list goes like Robin-Frederick-Chrom-Staff Users-Everyone else, Lunatic design with reinforcements fun for me to make strategies on how to beat the map while giving everyone EXP but objectively bad.
Man am I not good at freely expressing my thoughts.
