If Fire Emblem was written by Vivziepop.

cant wait to play it. how long till this room completed? good luck🤩🤩

Love þe darker tone of þis compared to most; your storywriting ability among your work is amazing! Your original compositions for everyþing have been great too! Enjoy yourself þe most you can!

I had a good laugh at the idea that the main character is responsible for a teenage angst song that became popular across an entire continent. I can see why you got exiled from FE Universe for this romhack though. I can only assume they want to keep all content on their site rated T or lower like the source material.

Heh, I can see the familiar story beats and themes that would eventually make its way to your Darius mod. Would love to see more!

...exiled??? Wtf??? Damn..... you good though?

awesome hack man, God bless ya! do you have a reference map for all the items? it's a bit troublesome to search for them even in the video haha

I could actually sleep peacefully listening to this tune. It feels rather peaceful.

Is there a version without the sprite glitches?

This game slapped - hard mode was fun to Ironman no matter how many attempts it took

Where are this myrm and the swordmaster animations from? They look sick

Welp. Life hit me with a gotcha. All my progress is gone. My work. My legacy. Dust in the wind. Gonna be taking a break and restarting i guess.

its colliding

Sorry for the question but what is the final version of your hack room? I downloaded it from a video on your channel but it was version 1.1 and I'm not sure if it's complete, if not could you send me the link to the updated version?

n e a t o

oooh, nice 🎉

while I was playing in this map, Yosef got hit by the berserk staff from the Lich at the bottom. The berserk status never wore off, and I had to play the rest of the map with him berserked, and even had more than one close call with him landing critical hits on my units. Do you have any idea what might have caused this?

I uhm... hello. The map sprite glitch thing is an OAM overload I think it was called? That is, there's a limit for how many map sprites can be on a screen (Or map in general?) at once, I don't know the limit proper, but all of those 32x32 map sprites are quadrupling the amount of memory that's used, so it ends up collapsing into itself making things a bit funky. Yay memory shenanigans?

How to get crash?

Hello. I've been playing this hack and really enjoying it so far, but it seems really difficult. Has Difficult Mode been tested? I'm starting to worry I really should have picked Normal Mode for my difficulty.

Looking at this stream makes me remember that I fucked up the blinking frames in Wentz's portrait and that I actually made an updated version of it some time ago. I could send it over to you if you'd be fine with that.

I am a simple man, i see DoS i come in and loop it. (Man finally yt did something right on the impression thing...)

Could be right out of Aria! good stuff👍

as someone currently playing through DoS on the Delta emulator, noice.

When the Chuggaaconroy drama first came out I dismissed it because I thought it was the same situation as the Sean Chiplock drama. To summarize what happened with Chiplock what it boiled down to was, he called people out for gatekeeping Genshin ships and people who refused to listen flipped the script and tried to accuse him of supporting an incest ship with the character he voiced and another character that was related to the character he voiced. It was later discovered that the DMs they used as evidence were fake and that one of the primary accusers was a pedo/zoophile. Back to Chuggaaconroy, when I first heard the claims I assumed he called someone out and they threw a fit and tried to cancel him. When I found out that he actually did mess up my response was, “I hope he takes accountability and is able to clean up his act.” This was further reinforced when he posted the thread. Sorry about the essay, had a lot to say.

Darius is the fe equivalent of Nick Cannon and me. THE GOAT

So I beat Darius a while back, and I've got a fair bit to say. I ultimately don't think I overall enjoyed it. I liked parts of it, but much of it was weighed down by the presence of many things which detracted from those positives. Hopefully this'll be constructive either way, seeing a sequel is being cooked from what I've heard. Just to forewarn. My English is not the best and I'm really sorry if I at all come off rudely with my wording. I swear there's no offence intended, words are hell sometimes ^^". -- GAMEPLAY -- It's very much like code of the black knights in this department. Early is pretty solid, team up to kill, and slowly get the scrubs up. though the map where you get you real jagen does have the issue of feeling like you're stuck in one place breaking through a horde. By midgame it does feel like it hits this slump of many maps not having much room/reason to really split and so you're often dragging a deathball around that just kills a bunch of guys each turn. Your bow units have likely come online and you get some promotions and now things start to be hard for the enemies to really keep up. Then endgame suffers from the same problem Cotblack does, where it's just your lord with an incredibly powerful series of prfs soloing the endgame vs foes that can't keep up. With a final boss that unfortunately just devolves into a slugging match while your guys down below.... ..Well, don't really get to do anything important, and I wish they'd have some way to help impact the fight Darius is having with Hardhammer without it just being warping up Crash (if you find him). As is they exist and don't get much to contribute to actually helping take him down as your ball of stats fights another ball of stats one combat at a time, waiting for procs to speed up the pace. Skills were a hit or miss thing. By late game it made for enemies which were more frustrating (generally the monsters) and emphasizing NUKE ASAP (if they had a proc). Otherwise skills often did feel like they made for a situation where the rich get richer unitwise and some classes with strong units just get way better vs their peers. Canto+ was also just way too hard to pass up, that stuffs powerful AF, LOL. 2-3 Bows worked way too well. especially in tandem with Canto+ on mounts. As it meant that archers/snipers lacked a really valuable trait and actually made them arguably the weakest bow units of all. Meanwhile mounted bow units became much more powerful for having these things. They became incredibly overcentralizing compared to other options because they gave so much power in a way little could really contest with. Even without Canto+ it's definitely the same conundrum PE had with it's 2-3, where Archers just are their worst users. It's a matter where I think if it was just 2 range, and archers just had bowrange+ for 2-3, it'd give them a valuable tool over the the rest while still keeping bows valuable. Then there's the matter of the very late (10+ turn) reinforcements that grant stuff like statboosters. This isn't good for design because it's encouraging me as a player to play SLOWER. It's rewarding me for turtling rather than doing the opposite and rewarding me for being proactive with my plays. (continued in replies)

This chapter really beat me around. Just gut punch after gut punch. But i did it. As is my duty. I conquered this. And i will conquer the rest of them. But good lord. Really had to start to use all my brain power

Playing this hack has been an enjoyable experience. Even if i am not that good at it. Since i have been playing the game and after each chapter i check in here to see how i compared. Your units are far higher levelled already

Hey, man. Even with the understandable controversy of Black Dragon, I’m still quite curious as to what it’s like on a gameplay level. Do you still have the UPS file? The Google Drive link is dead, so if you still have it, I’d appreciate a link, if only to sate my curiosity.

Is this something that's in the game's data but scrapped in the final game, or is it fanfiction?

Hey zane i was looking at the hack earlier and wanted to suggest you add the lava weather effect to i believe chapter 24! I think it would improve the feel of the map

I’d love to meet all my discord buddies eventually too.

1:09:37 Huh? Thats weird, Tar-ga-otch looks quite different compared to the version I'm playing, he looks more like a magic user in this stream.

it feels cursed to have my name be called out loud

This was and is still one of my favorite Rom Hacks. I binged it so quick, characters were fun, maps were challenging at multiple points in the game. Absolutely love this so much. Got me super into trying a bunch of hacks

Very cool, this is a good video for anyone aspiring to make a FE hack. This hack is next on my list for sure. I came across your channel a while ago and loved what you had going with this, but didn’t watch the full series as I wanted to play the game for myself.

Cool watch, guessing this is going to be a series?

Honestly, I relate a bit to some of what you've gone through. The Shackled Power playthrough actually started partly as something to help me get through things; I'd lost one of my dogs from childhood and simultaneously had a terrible end to a relationship awhile before starting it. Since then, my videos have doubled as something I enjoy and a way to keep myself doing something. Those nagging feelings don't ever quite go away, especially with the world being as dystopian as it is, but it has made things just a little easier. It never gets easy, but it does get easier. Or so I've heard. Hang in there, man. Good luck with both the sequel hack and the game you're planning to make, too.

I've just wrote a comment earlier in one of your videos complimenting DTC... I don't know what to say... But I understand how you feel... Unfortunately, FE Romhacks are not something that can be profitable as a product itself, because well... It's a romhack... And even if it's made from scratch, it's not a popular niché either. You could try to recommend it other youtubers to play it, but still... It's kind of the charm of the romhack: It's something done out of passion. That's why they are so enjoyable (Well... At least for me). And the tools and resources the community has developed are really good. I have much more fun playing The Last Promise or any other random FEGBA Hack than any other AAA Game (I'm exaggerating a bit, but you get the idea). Doing it from scratch... It's possible (Look at Undertale), but you need to have a lot of knowledge and time. And eventually, if you want to get it done faster, you need people. I'm currently trying to make my own short FE romhack to make something bigger in the future that comes out from there (Pretty much inspired by DTC, Black Fang and Vision Quest). I was even planning to share it with you to have your feedback once I had the first chapter done in the next month or two XD I work as a programmer and took some manga classes some years ago, so I think I have the necessary skills to present something decent by myself. I've just been fiddling with FEBuilder and it's quite intuitive despite its looks, but good lord... it takes time to do everything... Even frankespriting takes time... And it's a bit frustrating that in the end it won't be profitable. I enjoy every second working on it. Thinking on the dialogues, setting up skills and stats, even editing the sprites and planning the maps... But well. I have my everyday job where I have to invest my time for a company I don't even care about... They treat me well and I genuinely feel useful, but I care less and less each day. I feel like you: I should be working on a project of my own and stop wasting my time. But well... I have a life, and society needs to get things done to work and they pay me well for it, and I don't have time nor energy to get good at everything as I would like to... And in the end, the fated date comes for everyone when they least expect it... I got into anime thanks to Dragon Ball. And from there, I got to know a lot of things more. I'd probably be a much more miserable person if I didn't watch that series as a kid. The recent news were heartbreaking, but what eases my mind is that Toriyama left an incredible legacy behind. And everyone should strive for that. And I definitely want to leave something. I feel like the days pass without me doing anything meaningful. It destroys my soul little by little. In any case, I think that DTC and whatever that comes next to it has what it takes. I really enjoyed playing it and I could feel the passion behind every little thing. As a matter of fact, it inspired me to start working on my own FEGBA romhack as I said earlier. And I've also been a little down lately for personal reasons, and playing DTC and many other FEGBA romhacks helped me to feel better. I honestly would like to give you a hand, but I'm still a bit green programming videogames and I don't have the time availability I'd like to focus entirely on a project. And I don't want to get involved in something I won't be able to dedicate my energy 100% to it. I've been very tired as of lately and I want to focus on resting or working on personal stuff. But if you have questions about programming or art, I can give you a hand. Probably in the next one or two years, I'll try to make myself time to work on a videogame project.

Very sorry to hear about your pet, so many young adults have this sort of traumatic separating from their childhood pets that's tremendously difficult, it truly feels like leaving something that's been a part of you behind, the final severance from childhood

Hey! I've just finished Darius The Conqueror and it rightfully earned its place as one of my favorite FEGBA romhacks. Let me share you my feedback: Gameplay wise, it was really satisfying overall. I played it in Normal, and up to midgame, I felt that the difficulty was on point: Smooth, fair and satysfing (with emphasis on satysfing). You really know how to draw the line for the player and push them without making the game stressful. I think that the levels that better exemplify this are chapters 7, 11 and 14. Sometimes it's a bit too lax though. In chapter 5, I managed to kill the boss before the Wyvern reinforcements came. Also, you handled the skill progression masterfully. I got a bit uneasy when I saw some endgame clips where each unit had 6 skills, but I never felt any type of overload throughout the hack: You get all the skills gradually and have more than enough time to get used to them. I was surprised when enemies kept learning skills at the last levels. However, I felt that bows were a bit broken, specially for fliers. I cheesed the game quite a bit after I promoted Persephone and Orion and gave them boots, and Assassin Crixxus was a killing machine as well, he could easily double and proc Lethality + Adept with Longbows, which is insane. I'd probably nerf them a bit (Couldn't test Boudicca because I played a Soft Ironman and got her killed embarrasingly to a longbow...). But when you reach the endgame and become so insanely powerful you can sweep half of Havgan's army in one turn with all the Legendary weapons and Barbarus, you really feel like an unstopabble Conqueror. It's dangerously satisfying XD Loved the Fog levels as well. I inherently hate those levels, but in DTC there are few of them and they really set the horror mood with the Hellspawns coming out of nowhere and debuffing your party. I lost some units to that because I'm a bit of an optimal/impatient player thanks to Vision Quest XD But it added to the experience. Each time Barbarus went "HSSSSSSS!" I was like "Oh no..." in a good sense. Your tracks are really cool too. I find myself listening to many of them out of the game XD It really sets the "Roman Hype" mood the game tries to convey. Graphically it looks solid. Not going to dwelve much here. As long as the graphics aren't assembled like in Code of the Black Knights and I get to see custom animations, I'm fine with that XD (Code of the Black Knights is cool and I love it because it tries hilariously hard to stand out and takes itself very seriously for what it is, but its presented terribly...). Maps look fine and coherent, and you picked the correct animations for the units and gave them a good pallete for them all. I'd probably would've picked another animation for unpromoted Darius and the Archers, and gave Julia a less generic portrait (She appears once or twice, but she's important), but it's fine either way. Special mention to the dialogue: this hack has a lot of words and I'm not a native English speaker, so the idea of reading complex english sentences is a bit dreadful for me even though I use it everyday at work and have formal studies, but everything was really clear and easy to understand, regardless of the alliterations. I always looked forward for the roasts, insults, and sarcasm that each character had to say in the game. My favorite one is when Ulysess mocks Pericles for his "impeccable comedic timing" at the desert. And it was equally funny when the characters broke all that grandiloquence and started swearing as in the modern times. But the overly complex dialogue also made all the introspective moments much more meaningful and intense. I really liked Darius' conversations with Rasheverak. They always went straight to the point with what they felt at the time and they articulated everything with the upmost clarity and precision. It made everything more mystical and meaningful. Also loved when Darius and Oratorius make a meta reference playing Fire Emblem in chapter 6. Generally, that kind of stuff it can be extremely cringey, like Code of the Black Knights mocking Roy in Chapter 1 for absolutely no reason or the self insert character it has that makes constant references to Kingdom Hearts (I ended up liking Zero though)... But the cameos and references here were absolutely fine. This hack also is quite dark too. Aside from the strong language and insults, it doesn't beat around the bush to describe some situations (Nemesis Deep-faking a Darius and Helen NSFW video to deceive Polonius was a really underhanded move XD And what Commodus does to one of its illegitimate sons... Damn...). Personally, I don't mind dark stuff. I think that everyone should be free to express what they want how they want. It might even help to know if someone is about to go off the rails sooner. And I was even expecting more crude things to happen, as if it weren't enough what Burrus did to Sculla's family (Maybe I'm already off the rails...). But I think you handled the dark themes maturely and with the correct degree of subtlety as well. Not everyone feels the same way about dark topics, and the warnings were well placed. Finally, I really liked the story and its characters. I found it really simple and engaging. I liked that it never hide that something wrong it's about to happen in the next turn. Everything felt extremely sincere. It's proof that you don't need to be too ambitous or shocking to write something enjoyable (Like Code of the Black Knights... Again, I love it, but it's too dense). The story has this "Hey, this is just a simple beginning" feel from start to finish, but Darius and his crew really go through everything. Each chapter, the plot advances forward, presents every piece of info you need, and doesn't waste more time than needed. The antagonists get build up correctly and we get to see every side of them, no matter how cruel they are, leaving hints here and there about some future events (Loved when Barbarus hesitates to struck Nemesis and we realise later why). Darius screws up here and there due to corruption, reflects about his actions, clashes with other point of views, learns from all of that, and reaches to a solid and sincere conclusion after beating Havgan. However, I felt that the plot drags a little bit during the Exile arc. It made sense story wise and it was useful to add more chapters gamewise, but I think you could've taken away two or three chapters from there. The most important stuff that happens there were recruiting Timon, the Non-humans and Aerion and to form the Delian alliance. I would've probably merged chapters 17 and 18, as well as merging chapters 20 and 21 to go over that part of the story quicker (Easier said than done, of course). Nevertheless, after Darius gets recognized as the Conqueror, everything gets back on track with a lot of impulse to reach the conclusion. I felt that Darius swoops the antagonist forces a little bit too fast, but it makes sense due to having aid from Barbarus. The end twist was pretty cool too. (On a side note, I didn't expect Rasheverak to be a perv. It's absolutely uncomfortable and hilarious XD) I think you also did a very good job matching the themes of the story with all the different characters. For example, each of the starting Preatorians is from a different race and birthplace. It gives a good and efficient glimpse from the lore of the story, and how their lineages impacted their day to day lives. You can see how people from Angaron discriminate most of them in various degrees, cope with that, and find their place through the journey thanks to the Praetorians. It adds to the feeling of saving the world with your band full of misfits, which suits Fire Emblem games really well. Haven't read all the supports yet, but the few I read were pretty cool. Crixxus and Pharah's C Support is my favorite so far. Also loved the endgame convos. It's really fitting how after the long journey, everyone knows each other very well and have no problem telling what they feel. My favorite convos from the endgame are the ones that Viper and Garrick have with Darius. They really let out everything there. Well... Sorry for the long comment. I really enjoyed the romhack and wanted to congratulate you properly. You really put a lot of effort and came up with a very unique hack. Never knew I needed a Roman Fire Emblem until I played DTC. Looking forward for the sequel. I hope that Darius does nothing wrong like a certain long haired albino dude XD

Hello where is normal enemy attack theme?

This game looks awesome! I so wanna play this now, after how hard you worked on this!

This video is my first impression of your project, and I am excited for when I have time to play it. God speed you, stranger.

“Saria, Saria, now you know this song, it’s stuck in your head, forever.”

Heard this theme in the videos for ‘Darius the Conqueror’, and you’re right; it is catchy.

Some of the character in this game are names of historical warriors and general that lived in the past

It probably helps that Chrono Trigger was from a console with similar sound capabilities, so it was composed in such a way that a GBA soundfont won't have to cram instrument tracks together or anything. So saying, though, this is a great conversion and this soundfont really flatters Frog's Theme.
