Elise!Ophelia is really, REALLY good. And try reclassing Leo into a Sorceror when paired with a magic boosting partner. He absolutely wrecks train.
I wouldn't call Birthright the "Good Path". I'd call it the "simple path". You don't think too much on your actions because the justification is easy. Conquest's plot might be a bit TOO convoluted, but at least it isn't practically a parody on the old Fire Emblems.
I'm loving Revelation so far, though.

I find that in Conquest your Hoshidan siblings are a bunch of unreasonable and whiny little pricks. ESPECIALLY Takumi.

I want to murder Takumi. In Chapter 10 if you weren't protecting the squares I'd curb stomp him.

I finished conquest on hard classic and found myself way too burnt out to go through birthright or revelations. Eventually!

Ugh don't remind me. The memes of the internet spoiled conquest for me and I couldn't enjoy it. Trust me I wanted to murder the hell outta pineapple head too on both playthroughs. I hope revelations makes him a bit more tolerable.

11 chapters into revelations. Well.. these story reasons are also stupid!

Agreed. And it's not like the games were complete trash. There was still quite a good deal that I enjoyed. Conquest's main story point is contrived and Revelations is really poorly balanced unless you don't mind grinding outside of the story, but while those two gripes are fairly large to me they don't really overshadow the good in the games. There were a lot of steps in the right direction, I find. Just a few steps in a slightly troubling direction as well.
Not to mention as "bad" as the localization was, there was quite a bit that they fixed from the original games that would have sucked to deal with. A lot of the characters were translated to be less tropey over here, for one. A big thing for me was they greatly toned down the heavy favoritism towards Hoshido and Birthright the originals had. It's still there, but it's not nearly as severe.
