Hi Hijiki! I love to see artists and creators from Japan come and hang out with us. What are some of your favorite FE fan games?

That’s a good question! :thinking:

I’ve played through most of the Japanese hacks, and every single one of them had amazing characters and stories. Among them, I think I’ve spent the most time playing “The Two Princesses” (二人の王女)!

Unfortunately, due to ROM compatibility and my limited English, I haven’t been able to play any overseas hacks yet :sweat_droplets:

I’d love to know—what are your top recommendations? :smiling_face:

I love a good story as well! I believe 7743 was working on translating some of the more popular English-language hacks into Japanese, not sure what came of that. As for recommendations, the classic one is Vision Quest - practically every romhack that came after is in conversation with it, like that Terry Pratchett quote about Tolkien and Mt Fuji. If you like FE8, there’s a hack called Dark Stone, which is a retelling of Sacred Stones with Lyon as the protagonist and all the bosses as playable characters.

Wow, thank you all for the warm welcome and recommendations! @KingStaragna Thanks for the info on “Vision Quest” and “Dark Stone,” they both sound super interesting! I’ll definitely check them out.

@Aswink Haha, thanks for the Warp Staff! I’ll do my best to level up my staff rank before getting caught! :joy:

@Squidjees Thanks for the reply! I’d love to have your help, but since I’m a new user here, it looks like I don’t have the option to send private messages yet. Could you shoot me a DM first? Thanks!

Start with the legendary The Last Promise

I am curious about what’s the JP hacking community’s equivalent of the one that started it all

Thanks for the info!

I’ve already reached rank 2, so I’ll keep visiting every day and take my time to get to rank 3 :smiling_face:

To be honest, I’m not really sure about the history of the Japanese hacking community, so I don’t know what the equivalent would be! :anxious_face_with_sweat:

Does anyone else here know about the legendary Japanese FE hacks?

Maybe ask the communities you found here, what pioneered GBAFE hacks there
