>what's going on?
I'm playing (partially blindly) through one of the most famous hacks of Fire Emblem 7--The Last Promise.
While I do, I'll be taking inputs from you on various things, and sharing notable differences and things added to the hack(for all the shit it has, there's a LOT of good in it too)
offscreen growths and the return of Haas, Noah, and LIQUIIIIIIIIIIIIIID
>>345363619
Welcome back. Are you feeling better today?
FAQs:
>what's this hack called?
"The Last Promise"
>where can I download it?
/feg/ has a pastebin of ROMhacks in their OP.
>is this the one with the hilariously edgy MC?
yes.
>I'm new to Fire Emblem. What's a good game to start with?
Fire emblem: The Blazing sword(aka Fire Emblem in the USA) is a fantastic starting point, featuring a comprehensive tutorial. Alternatively, Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones also has a briefer tutorial and is all around easier.
>I heard this series is just shitty waifu pandering
that's Awakening and Fates.
>what does each stat do?
HP-health. lose it all and your unit dies(permanently)
STR/MAG- how much damage you do with attacks. this is augmented by your enemy's defenses and your own weapon's MT
SKL- your chance to hit with attacks, as well as score crits
SPD- if your SPD is high enough, you'll be able to double-attack enemies, also affects your chance to avoid enemy attacks.
LUK-affects accuracy and avoidability
DEF-affects defense against physical attacks
RES-affects defense against magical attacks
CON- unit's weight. this affects who they can rescue or be rescued by, and if your CON is too low, you will suffer SPD penalties while using heavier weapons.
>Why are you so shitty?
I'm impatient
>Is this the one with the self-insert that gets NTR'd?
no, that's MK404

I'm still laughing.

>siegfried and kelik aren't here, and shon is losing his spaghetti
this is great.
alright, any party changes?
>>345365106
That seems fine. Shame there's no space for Ace.
>>345365414
could drop karina.
>>345365463
Well if you want, Fliers are a bit less useful indoors.
I also picked this up in the last stage.
who gets it?
>>345366282
Rex
>>345366391
why? He's never getting used again.
even if ace dies.
>>345366282
How is Liquid on speed? Axe users tend to lack it.
>>345366282
Give it to Lirin, she needed some fast.
Is there a backup of the FE7 threads? I need to read through Lyn's story

>>345367036
She must go beyond the limit!
>>345367036
Give em to shon
>>345366610
here's LIQUIIIIIIIIIIIIIIID's stats.
>>345367331
He'll be fine. If Shon isn't capped do as >>345367272 says. If he is I guess Kevin could always use speed.
shon it is!
as said in the OP, I'm going completely blind now. I've never gone past chapter 21.
>>345367331
God liquids got the most fucked up face
He's got a beard, a scar, half his head is hair, and his face is lopsided, and he looks like he's constantly on the verge of tears
He's like a 14 year old kid in a shitty Halloween costume who just got told how bad it looks Jesus Christ
so, if you
A:finish the prologue chapter 1 without using siegfried at all(unlocking prologue part 2),
B:Kill pellenore with shon in chapter 10
C:engage howard with shon in the chapter he's a boss
You finish a sidequest, and get an upgrade to shon's new sword!
here we go!
>>345368209
Shon about to start tearin shit up
>>345368510
>those bonuses
goddamn shon!
>C-Cia-sama is watching! I gotta look good!
DO YOU FEEL IN CHARGE?
>>345368797
>assassin
That's clearly a fighter
wait, what the fuck? why does liquid have Lethality?
>>345368992
He prefers the killing to the sneaking.
>>345367036
um, that just shows broken links?
>>345369057
Because this is a well balanced and clearly thought out romhack
>>345369295
go install 4chan x, it'll automatically link dead/pruned posts to an offsite archive
>>345367974
and yet he's a big ol' fuckhuge berserker. And an OP one at that
>>345369517
Somebody was clearly compensating for something here
https://youtu.be/TJuHS9OO_hE
I'm not exaggerating either.
Liquid has fucking Lethality.
>>345368209
>and get an upgrade to shon's new sword!
The game is mostly trivialized now. Blazer's sense of balance is fucked up.
>>345369057
And there's another example. And Althares' random +15 crit boost. And Kelik. And lol no axes.
>>345370291
>lolnoaxes
you get Mark in like chapter 17.
>tamiko might cap MAG
I think the only base healer that I've ever seen pull that off was Rhys in FE9.
H U G E
Ace proving why he has a spot on my plane.
>>345370379
Who was your axe user before then, especially during Shon's chapters? Bonus if they're not an easy to miss prepromote.
>>345371095
BACED
jesus christ.
for comparison: iron lance vs silvans, vs a sword-user.
>>345371190
you act as though axes are super crucial in this game.
especially in the GBA titles, axe-users tend to be underpowered as fuck, due to shit SKL and terrible accuracy. not having an axe user is not all that unbalancing.
>>345369057
Tekun, Liquid, the Assassins and IIRC Kelik all have Lethality.And a certain lategame boss in the longest chapter of the game
>>345371445
>still 4 crit
>>345371805
>kelik
Of fucking course
today's date appears to be april 20, in the USA!
CIA IS NOT A BIG ENOUGH GUY YET
>this is what had to replace lirin
>>345371445
Those are poor excuses to he as dumb as IS.
>man, IntSys is shit at balancing, so my hack should be shit too!
It's not like he was a goddamn hacker who could fix that. He clearly made Kelik and Tekun broken, why not show axe users some love? Also, most of the early game chapters are filled with lances in some form, if I remember correctly. If it wasn't for Kevin the man, it'd be the dullest hell.
>>345372840
Don't need much to replace a corpse.
that's it?
>>345372897
>man, axe users really suck, and very rarely do you get usable ones
>we have lots of horsemen in these stages, lets give our MC an anti-horseman weapon and have lots of lance and ranged weapon wielders!
you also have to remember that every character in the hack was designed by a forum member, not blazer.
really, it makes sense, and it's one thing I don't fault blazer for.
>>345373320
reminder of her before promotion bonuses.
>>345373580
>using a slow peg
Actually, I was looking for that so I could compare them in my taunt, but that link doesn't seem to be in the OP. Probably want to get on that, since there was also the Ace vs Rex wars in that thread.
nghaaaaa LIQUIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIID
>>345374095
reminder
4 levels lower, and without promotion bonuses
lirin had:
+2 HP
+1 STR
+3 SKL
-6 SPD
=LUK
-1 DEF
-2 RES
that's, again, several levels lower and without bonuses.
you're waifu a shit compared to her.
goddamnit howard, are you really just a shitty prepromote with decent bases?
>>345374432
I cannot get over that fucking portrait liquid has
>>345374580
>people thought he would get on the flight plan
>>345374580
Are you really going to give Cia to this man? Because she deserves better than that.
so...on top of having 18 fucking MT and 85 accuracy, silvans is also a brave weapon.
AND it gives a bunch of stat-ups.
>>345374432
You got lucky with a shit unit! Shanna is still the best!At least your Karina is doing good, right?
>>345374726
>implying CIA isn't already having hot /u/ sex with Tamiko
>>345375110
she's okay
>>345374726
>>345375131
should I bench howard and A-support her with tamiko?
>>345374432
BROTHEEEER
so the assassin unit with no personality is gone.
>>345375271
Do it
There's only enough room on this plane for one of them
>>345375450
Wooh.
>Shon slowly inheriting his father's "God, why?" stare
>>345375271
Yes. If Howard really wanted Cia then he should have thought twice before getting those levels. Now Cia is going to be a lesbian an it's all his fault.
>you just wiped out my assassin organization
>I didn't try and kill you myself, so can I join?
HOLY FUCK I'M LITERALLY LAUGHING OUT LOUD.
>>345375965

Cia's creator must've been a moderator or admin. It's the only explanation.
>>345379043
The self inset of the one girl on the forum that blazer had a boner for
>>345379043
all shes missing is to be absolutely vital to plot and have her own unique weapon
any party changes?
>>345379420
nope
im fairly certain nobody gives a shit about the other charaters outside of the current team
>>345379420
Maybe drop Howard and try to salvage Storm, or just use Haas/Lyam. Otherwise it's all good.
>>345379420
Drop Howard for Zach or Storm.
>>345380116
>>345379823
done.
brought storm.
>>345380429
Post Storm's stats too, and compare them to enemies throughout the level. Don't want to be bringing dead weight,
pretty underlevelled, but eh, I need to use him and haas next chapter anyway.
>>345380776
Fucking great speed, at least.
pffffhahahahahaha

speaking of which, has /feg/ made a romhack yet?
>>345383328
Tacthack was working on one but he's disappeared. Rumor has it that he's working on one even now.
There's also the Rokevin one.
>>345383328
they've made multiple attemptsI designed a wyvern knight for one
>>345383210

Doesnt this chapter have like.. two Gaidens?
>>345383806
If only she had a good character.
>>345383806
BIG GIRL
>>345383807
For the first one, you need to have all of the Emblem Weapons.
Then in the first one, for the second one, wait out the turn counter.
>>345383954
Fucking hell, Ace. You were supposed to be the good one.
>>345383450
showe the picture nigger!
>>345382453
Were assasin promotion bonuses always that shitty?
I want to emulate a fe game considering I've only played the games path of radiance and beyond.
Which title does /v/ recommend for maximum fun
>>345384332
Yes.
GBA Promo-Gains were mostly shit.
>>345384348
FE7 or 8 are good. FE6 or FE4 if you want more of a challenge.
>>345383954
hey siggy/2, do you think we will get FE Go?
>>345384348
7 is always recommended cause its more or less the standard the series is held to here, 8 is maximum comfy, 6 is hard and kinda boring, 3 - 5 are really different from everything that comes after but also really fun
i say 7 > 8 > 6 > 4 > 5 > 3
>>345384190
no, he was just the BETTER one.
>>345384125
first one is automatic
second one requires all the emblem weapons, as well as the one you get in the first one.
>>345384216
I gotta boot up my laptop for that, gimme a sec.I don't think he was too offensive. mercenary who got super attached to a village, got his wyvern through a bet in a bar, used it to help the village out, got mad when the prince and the villains' conflict threatened the area and joined in.
>>345384348
7 or 4 (the fun didn't kick in until a bit into 4 for me, but when it did, oh man)
>>345384538
And to wait out the Turn Counter.
I remember that vividly.
>>345383954
>we benched based Rex for this
>>345383328
>>345383423
Tacthack is still going on
At this point in time, we are at the stage of getting most of the stages complete and working in dialogue. Nightmare and other stuff is a bitch.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UoM02c4vJr0
By the way, this is just the supportwriter talking, not Tact. He is working on house dialogue at the moment and making sure that stuff worksfor a demo

did you even see his horrid growths?
>>345384994
HE WAS GOING TO GET BETTER
>>345384940
we've never actually been shown where exactly people get wyverns, and depending on the game, they're plentiful as FUCK.
>>345385134
that is surprisingly solid logic
>>345384896
>spear user MC

>>345385628

not bad storm.
shame you're going to be benched after 23x.
>>345385628
He looks smug.
I like him.
>>345384896
What music is that for the battle themes?
>>345385964
I think I edited kent and legault's sprites together and edited the colours using hawkeye's skin tone.

>>345388268
It's a school project now
>>345388019
Shit sucks, why do hacks hate axe users?
I dun get it.
>>345388268
He made it his final project for a degree of some sort, as far as I recall. If he doesn't finish it he can kiss his future goodbye.
>>345388304
>mediocre stats
have you even SEEN mark's growths? christ, give hate where it's due, man. I'm guessing you're the same retard who hated on lirin before actually seeing her stats. I get you have a boner for inanna and lirin, but axes are terrible in the gba games. accept it. having less axes than other weapons is not a big loss.
>>345388325
>>345388398
Huh, well he was becoming incredibly inventive for it to the point its barely 6 anymore, didnt expect it to be a project though. Guessing any updates on it is whenever he decides to visit feg or did he actually put a site up for it?

>>345383423
TQL is still alive too. Progress has been slow since the first demo, but mostly because I'm a lazy shit. But we've been picking up momentum again and we're making steady progress so far.
>>345389042
Shon can take part in the final chapter. Well the first part of it anyway.
He sits out final-final but that battle's more of a Kelik and insanely durable lance user affair so Shon wouldn't really help out anyway.

fucking hell, i know FE isn't know for realistic looks but why does every character needs to look like a humanized pony OC after the first world war?
>>345391768
One issue is custom portraits look out of place, so splicing is the way to go. Palettes are much easier to make look nice.
