As an overall game I would probably say Awakening.
Birthright is just a worse Awakening.
Conquest has the best gameplay out of all Fire Emblem games, imo. The main problem is the extremely hight difficulty compared to other games and the story which is one of the worst in the franchise.
Revelation has an even worse story and is a weird mix of Birthright and Conquest. Not as hard as the latter but also not as varied and what should be a "best of two worlds" is imo worse than both other routes.
Echoes has the best presentation out of all games, but the map design is just horrible and later on you get real bullshit. I still haven't beaten it (maybe halfway through chapter 4, nearly done with Celica but only the Witch Tower part on Alm's route is done), which is actually a first before the next game releases. The only other time were I didn't beat a FE in one go was with Shadow Dragon, which had the exact opposite problems of Echoes: Map design was great but the story was so non existant that that was the reason why I stopped playing.
