Birthright
Polygon (8.5)-"Fire Emblem Fates is an emotional war game"
Gamespot (80)-"Fire Emblem Fates: Birthright polishes the series' time-tested strategy combat and adds intimate, exciting interpersonal relationships."
Destructoid (8.5)-"Birthright is probably the best starting place for newcomers. Not only does it offer unlimited grinding opportunities to beef up your party, but the actual missions mostly consist of easy "rout (kill) the enemy" parameters."
IGN (9.4)-"I’m addicted to Fire Emblem Fates, and that’s fine by me."
Gameinformer (9.3)-"Birthright takes Awakening’s combination of narrative flexibility and tactical strategy and makes it even better"
Conquest
Polygon (Shared review with birthright)
Destructoid (9.5)-"Conquest on the other hand is a more enjoyable from my perspective as a strategy veteran. It's much more complex from the start, and offers bigger maps, more interesting objectives (such as point defense or sieges), and a more intriguing plot."
Gamespot (7)-"Fire Emblem Fates: Conquest is a punishing strategy RPG that marches forward and never looks back."
IGN (9.5)-"The intense difficulty is squarely aimed at veteran Fire Emblem players, and its satisfying campaign is full of variety and challenge."
Gameinformer (9.3)-"Conquest is a challenging game that richly rewards players willing to undergo its trial by fire"
Revelation
Gamespot (90)-"Of all three Fire Emblem Fates titles, Revelation is the most rewarding."
Destructoid (9)-"It's a great middle-ground overall, really. Players can still grind like they can in Birthright (a mechanic that's eliminated from Conquest), but the difficulty is more in tune with the other release."
