I have a love hate relationship with Thracia. I love its weird mechanics, even the unbalanced ones, but I find its maps to range from inoffensive but forgettable to downright awful, with few exceptions. I've often wished for a way to play with thracia mechanics but on better maps...and well, Bells of Byelen Delivers on This Promise. But this is so much more than a simple Thracia clone...
In Romhack Recommendations, I talk about Romhacks I enjoyed, go over the features I enjoyed about them, and try to give a general review/recommendation as to what to expect if you choose to play them. Remember that all these hacks are made for free by members of the community who are passionate enough to spend tons of time working, so even if you personally do not like a specific hack, be kind in your criticism.

The thing I adore most about FE4 and FE5 are their art direction. I love seeing hacks use the muted and earthy palette.
Lol all the clips of the thief dying to the devil weapon
Random chance fucking your life irreparably is the gender-non-conforming experience (though not exclusive to us obviously)
Thracia 777 finally came out.
Shoving being infantry exclusive is geniunally brilliant. Love the idea of it being the counterpart to mounted's Canto. Idk how I feel about the fatigue "buff" but I always thought the idea of the system encouraging you to use more of your army interesting.
Anyways - looking forward to 0% growths Bells.
"both the lords are fliers"
oh god no, I'm so bad at keeping mounted units alive.
that aside, looks interesting.
Remember that you can dismount any flier if you want.
The artstyle actually also gives a blend of Thracia and GBA vibes - adding this one to the queue too
I adore Bells. Some of the most unique map concepts I've ever seen like the Cromar map with an optional 3v3 arena gauntlet, a "seize then escape" map, one where you have to capture an escaping princess, a big "open-world" one where you're trying to gather help from a bunch of different factions and have to do a bunch of side quests to win their approval; those are some of the big highlights but there's plenty of others, too. The telephone nature of the hack gives me a strong vibe that almost every chapter wants to do something really cool and memorable. And somehow, despite being a telephone, the story mostly comes together in a really satisfying way.
Move over Moulder the Boulder, Svetomir the Biggest Here has arrived.
Save state is like my savior in my many Fe run. The longer the game is the more important save state is.
Honestly, this hack might top Vision Quest for my favorite FE romhack of all time. I love Thracia 776, and seeing it expanded into a game that takes its best aspects and mixes it with some of the other best aspects of the FE franchise was incredible to playthrough twice (and probably a third time in the near future). My only gripes with the game was, as you mentioned, support bonuses taken from 3H felt somewhat useless, and I agree that the “certain plot point” in the middle of the game that would have caused a few units to potentially leave should have been concluded within the game rather than in the character endings. Overall, those are minor nitpicks for a game I adore.
Also Awa x Delilah is probably one of my favorite supports I’ve seen in quite awhile.
Man, i am never going to catch up on all the games and hacks i want to play. Ive got your emtire review list to chew through, thracia, 6, and then the gamecube games.
Hornet my beloved 🐝
When I got that luna for bow users item she cooked so hard
Definitely want to check this out! Awesome review as always
This is my favorite rom hack i've ever played. I love how replayable it is with all the different kinds of units available. I haven't read all the supports but so many of them are amazing. Also Mish supremacy
Always enjoy these hack reviews. This video is gonna make me do another run through this game. Wondering if anyone here has played Drums of War? Thats another great hack i would love to see Dani review
Great game honestly, loved the story and the gameplay all around
Oh boy another one to bookmark to my neverending backlog of FE romhacks!
I'm so 50/50 on Fe5 that I'm kinda dreading to eventually replay it.
Great video! Really sold me on the new and old mechanics didn't watch the story section don't want to be spoiled. Not touching that fog of war character nope.
I definitely need to check this one out! I just finished with Iron Emblem and Iron Emblem: Age of Steel, so having another fun-looking Fire Emblem hack to work through will be awesome. Thanks for the highlight.
I love ALL Dani Doyle videos!!!! ❤
I just finished this game yesterday as my 2nd fe rom hack (the first being illusory dungeon) by recommendation from a friend
Definitely a tremendously difficult experience coming from someone whos never ventured into Lunatic before, but also some of the most fun ive had with a Fire Emblem game. By the end, my friend and i compared armies and they were entirely different, if thats any credence toward the point of unit diversity
Great review!
Thank you very much for this wonderful video
Been enjoying this hack quite alot so far. The only thing i dont entirely like is the amount of text at times. Sometimes there's so much but I felt like little was added. Also, an 80% to hit feels more like 65% but it's been a very great hack so far.
I know its not the focus of the video but what the fuck is Ryan Malis talking about
You only have 2 sword users, one being an unkillable prepromote on the other hand you have 3 axe users , a lance cav and an archer.
I honestly have no idea. Its such a bizarre statement that it became a meme overnight.
He confused Chapter 1 of Thracia with Chapter 6 of Revelations. Common mistake, we forgive Ryan
@@darthr0xas363 that's not even true of rev though. You have a sword/stone user, a knife user, and a lance user, and face mostly sword enemies... So I'm not even sure if there is a single chapter in fe that fits that description
@DaniDoyle okay I'm glad I found this comment because I'm playing thracia for the first time a week after watching this and the map wasn't anything like that 😂 the joke flew completely over my head
I am currently playing for the first time thracia 776 (using savestates and such because i just cannot bring myself to play the way it is intended) and i love nothing more than the growth scrolls, build and movement growths, vigor and pcc, just looking that this hack have those, i got convinced to play. Ah, and my beloved capture (i don't really like fatigue tho, i just cannot like it in anyway even if it is fair)
Edit: allright so this game makes exceptions for talk events and that, something that thracia is a literal troll with, i don't wanna miss out on anything because i don't replay games so that is pretty neat
Finally, it’s time people stopped sleeping on Bells of Byelen
10:55 ackchually 🤓 nosferatu is a light magic B tome rank in this hack
Doh, brain fart!
The tweet at 0:45 is a shitpost/bait right? I don't know what game they're thinking of, but it isn't peak fiction Thracia 776. Swordlocked could only apply to Leif and Eyvel, and the latter is unkillable.
How do you download the hacks in your phone
I want to play just for enby thief with devil effect now
Honestly, I kinda want to play Thracia again sometime so I can personally re-evaluate it. But Bells of Byelen looks neat.
Also, is it me, or are some of these tiles from Final Fantasy V?
This game is awesome. Just as an example of the kind of stuff this game cooks up, you get a dancer halfway through the game with 3 move stars. 11/10 unit. Still gotta watch out for fatigue though.
This is my favorite fire emblem game ever
FE6: The Binding Blade finally came out?
play New Theory of Thracia, an amazing romhack that makes Thracia replayable imo
fatigue the best mechanic in fireemblem??
I have never played thraccia, I had problems patching the rom, I need to try again sometime.
@@projectmessiah Oh I'll try that, thanks!
chapter 1 only swords v lances? what about orson and the pugi?
not even to mention the other axe users you have, halvin, dagdar?
Does this project use LT or FEbuilder?
Neither! This is a Buildfile project
Is the all sword units against all lance enemies a meme? I havent played Thracia much and not in awhile but pretty sure the first map is the one in the village taken over and you get like 4 axe units, 2 sword units, a lance unit, and a bow unit to start with.
It's a meme of someone saying it unironically even though its far from true
@@DaniDoyle I wonder where they even got this idea from? Do they mean chapter 5 or whatever the prison chapter is?
My theory ia they thought of ch4 which is indoor so all your units have swords and all the enemies are lance soldiers until the final room
@@DaniDoyle yeah I think that is the chapter I mean where you lose everyone except Leif and Lifis. All of your units besides the thieves can one round them pretty much though the wta doesn't matter.
I have questions
1. Is this rom hack playable in gba emulator ?
2. How do i download this rom hack ?
1. It's a romhack of a GBA game. Take a wild guess.
2. Download the UPS file from the link in the description, patch it to vanilla US FE8 rom. If you don't know how to do that, look it up.
It feels so very Dani that the game footage over the course of this video showed Mish dying to her own devil weapon like four times. Never change.
They, not she. But yeah, they are a silly unit.
@@DaniDoyle My apologies. I had registered you mentioning that they're nb and then promptly forgot about it while writing the comment. My bad.
This might be the hack that gets me back into trying FE hacks, as Thracia is probably my favorite Fire Emblem
0:44 Actually you have Finn, Osian, Halvan, Dagdar and Marty who are not sword units. Litterally everyone but Eyvel and Leif.
I love BoB too ! It's a great game.
I was referencing a common meme (pictured on screen)
@@DaniDoyle I didn't know this meme
FE5's first chapter does NOT give you all sword users (2 sword, 1 lance, 1 bow, 4 AXEMEN SMFH, just another reason to stay off twitter as it's filled with idiots lmao), and the stats on the lance-wielding enemy soldiers don't really make them much of a threat. Add in that weapon triangle is only 5%, and yeah you were really grasping at straws with that opening argument.
All good though, good to learn about a cool romhack. I feel you should put the name of the romhack in the title, so more people can find this when searching and just in general know what the heck this video is about right away.
it is in reference to a meme, which showed on screen.
@@DaniDoyle Ah I see, sorry I forgot to check my memecyclopedia
