Old school Fire Emblem has a very specific rhythm to it. It's a rhythm that even its own franchise has largely evolved beyond, but as Dark Deity shows, it's still a formula that can work and be entertaining. Unfortunately, Dark Deity pushes itself a little too far and sometimes confuses complexity for depth, bogging down an otherwise entertaining game. Overall, it's just kind of ok, but in such an underserved sub-sub-genre, even ok can sometimes be good enough.
