[FE8] [COMPLETE] FE: Dream of Five - Definitive Edition

Song titles?

There should be a list on the site that maps the ingame titles to what the originals are. If it’s missing it was likely pulled out of the fe7 version of the game and we forgot what it was

I’m not sure whether y’all care about bug reports, but for some reason I’m able to Promote Arcus using the Flash of Glory weapon obtained in 13A. This doesn’t happen for any other character, and I’m still able to do it after I send it to the convoy.

Also I’m having a blast :slight_smile:

We do have plans for one last bugfix patch sometime down the line so this is appreciated :+1:

Making an account just to say this hack was an absolutely amazing experience which I enjoyed very much. The story and characters grabbed me from the very first moment and didn’t let go. This is some terrific work and awesome writing. I very much liked how the story is incredibly personal, and has high stakes without being a fight against generic ultimate evil. The villains’ motivations make sense and go beyond “I want to have power for the sake of power”, there’s a certain tragedy to the story that is going to stick with me for quite a while.

This game blows the vast majority of “professionally” created games out of the water, and it’s not even close. Thank you both very, very much!

Now to go play route B :slight_smile:

Hello Team,

Just finished my first playthrough and wow !! So much to unpack !! :open_mouth::laughing:

Amazing story, a bit long to digest on one playthrough but completely worth it comes the latest chapters.

Map design is on point, Chara design is sublime, (huge applause for Thyra the Enforcer, and both Arcus and Trajan Scipion :star_struck:), and overall the game is a bit hard but feels quite rewarding in the end.

Huge thanks, I really enjoyed it !

Glad you enjoyed! I’m pretty proud of both Thyra and Trajan’s designs myself (shout out to Astralunasol for Arcus’s) so I’m happy you like them : D

Thank you to all the team for the game, I had a good time. The hats were great, my favorite one was Tricia´s hat. It make her seem very polite (which she is). If only she had more lines in the story.

My only complaint with the game is she can´t recruit Kahn. His loss.

Edit: I can add images now.

Endgame Tricia

She doesn´t take fights she can lose.

His loss indeed.

Playing this on my GBA and good god is it fun so far. I just made it to chapter 5 and it’s just like… Fire Emblem+. No crazy breaks from the standard formula, no wacky gimmicks, it’s just some good-ass Fire Emblem. Story’s super interesting so far, the characters are really well-written, and just in general the writing is just as snappy as the gameplay. Which, for the record, the gameplay is very snappy. I do wish I could see growth rates tho

Anyway here’s my current team (Kolbane died in chapter 2 and I could not be bothered resetting for him sorry):

I’m very much new to romhacks but as one of my first ones this is absolutely blowing me away!

OH MY GOD I MISSED THE EARLYGAME HEALER

Just played through the first chapter of the route split (I’m on the A route) and man, this story is seriously engaging. I almost find myself wishing I could skip the gameplay just to get to the next part of the story, but then I remember that the game is fun as hell too and get conflicted

I really like how Garath has remained extremely useful despite not receiving a single level, I don’t make him do much but when I need him he’s really really solid, great at sitting on chokepoints, one-shotting frailer enemies, and weakening the stronger ones so somebody else can get the kill

Also I will say, Chapter 6 was very tough compared to everything else so far. Not in an unfun way or anything, I did enjoy the chapter a lot, but man I had to restart like 9+ times. Admittedly the difficulty more comes from the first few turns than anything though, those first 4 or 5 turns were super tight
