Overall, ''The Blazing Blade'' features no significant changes to its gameplay compared to ''The Binding Blade''. | Overall, ''The Blazing Blade'' features no significant changes to its gameplay compared to {{title|The Binding Blade}}; though there were several smaller adjustments. | ||
''The Blazing Blade'' reintroduces the ability for enemies to drop items upon defeat, a gameplay feature absent from ''The Binding Blade''. Additionally, the player may now use [[class change]] and stat booster [[item]]s from the [[battle preparations]] menu instead of deploying the desired unit to use the item in the next chapter. ''The Blazing Blade'' also removes the ability for units to gain multiple S [[weapon rank]]s, instead limiting each unit to mastering only one weapon type (with one playable [[Athos|exception]]). | |||
[[Thief|Thieves]] and the [[Transporter]] were both given class changes; both classes lacked the ability to class change in ''The Binding Blade''. | |||
''The Blazing Blade'' also adds the ability for the player to decline [[sidequest]]s. | |||
Compared to ''The Binding Blade'', ''The Blazing Blade'' has several more [[gameplay modes]]; ''The Binding Blade'' only has normal and hard, while The Blazing Blade has Lyn's tale, Eliwood's tale, and Hector's tale, with each tale having a normal and hard variant. | |||
Graphically, ''The Blazing Blade'' made revisions to several battle animations introduced in ''The Binding Blade''. These revisions include smoothing out some animations and changing the outfits of some classes; for instance the female [[Sage]] loses the poofy sleeves on her dress and gains elbow length gloves, the [[Druid]] was given a new sound effect when performing a [[critical hit]], the [[Mercenary]]'s outfit and build were given slight modifications, and so on. Additionally, ''The Blazing Blade'' was the first ''Fire Emblem'' game to have character portraits blink during dialogue scenes. | |||
''The Binding Blade'' gives every weapon in the game a line of flavor text,{{hover|*|Recent fan translations also remove these descriptions}} all language releases of ''The Blazing Blade'' instead only feature descriptions on [[regalia]] or weapons with special effects. | |||

* Of the official English localizations of the series, ''The Blazing Blade'' is the only one where item names do not have their entire name [[wikipedia:Capitalization|capitalized]] - for example, "[[Iron Sword]]" is spelled "Iron sword" - and are accordingly presented as common nouns rather than proper nouns (aside from [[regalia]] weapons and the [[Light Brand]]). From {{title|The Sacred Stones}} onward, capitalizing the entire item name became the series standard. The ''gringe'' [[fan translation]] of ''The Binding Blade'' and "Project Naga" fan translation of ''Genealogy of the Holy War'', however, handle item names the same way as this game. | * Of the official English localizations of the series, ''The Blazing Blade'' is the only one where item names do not have their entire name [[wikipedia:Capitalization|capitalized]] - for example, "[[Iron Sword]]" is spelled "Iron sword" - and are accordingly presented as common nouns rather than proper nouns (aside from [[regalia]] weapons and the [[Light Brand]]).

*This game supports the ability to allow characters to wink and blink during dialogue, though the former is used once in the entire game by [[Matthew]] in his recruitment conversation with [[Guy]]. Because the wink animation plays at the same speed as the blink animation most players miss it. | *This game supports the ability to allow characters to wink and blink during dialogue, though the former is used once in the entire game by [[Matthew]] in his recruitment conversation with [[Guy]].
