I sure hope Rumia who is best girl is a unit in this game, she was locked alllll the way at the end of the first game and it would be nice if I can recruit her much earlier here.

Iâve made it to the Interlude, but even after talking to all the units, I canât progress to the next chapter from there. Is this a bug?
see here
Has anyone encountered this before?
I started my first run on the first save file and got this cracked Kasen.
It was on Hard mode, Classic and Dynamic.i also answered patchouli with âFlexibilityâ. I followed the same steps on the second save file, but she was normal there. I canât reproduce it anymore.

if i had to guess it probably has to do with dynamic growths which are known to be buggy, but if it wasnât replicable that basically makes it impossible for us to troubleshoot properly. there might be a way for me to circumvent this specific bug though, might be fixed in the next patch (coming soonâ˘)
This is a post about the chapter 6 boss, and sheâs troublesome to say the least.
as one can imagine, Rinnosuke here is the character with the highest hitrate, and still he can barely hit this stupid bunny! Reimu isnât an ption due to the boss high speed, res and a magicbuster weapon. if there was a way to increase hit rate/ decrease avoid, or even if there was way to make her move OFF the throne, that would be amazing.
i know in the story, it makes sense for her to not want to risk herself in a mobile fight, but story shouldât sacrifice gameplay. Her fightâs stupid, and i hate it.
Thank you so much. I couldnât understand it because I canât read English. This game is so much fun, and Iâm really happy I can keep playing it.
Having a lot of fun with the game so far, just finished chapter 9. This is definetely one of the most promising projects iâve seen. Thank you for your hard work.

Hi there! Of the crossover hacks, Touhou Emblem 1 set itself apart from HoloEmblem and Drama Emblem (the only other crossover hacks I know) with something unique: IIRC the chapter bosses were also Touhou characters.
So: Is the same being done for this one? Iâd assume so, and it is an interesting distinction.

Yes, you will be in fact slashing and hacking your way through your favorite touhou characters and then impressing them into your ragtag group of war criminals
When i get back to developing the game vs playing more yugioh

Feels right. And accurate to the franchise too.
Speaking of which: Why do the other crossover hacks use generic bosses instead of throwing actual characters from the franchises at you?
(And do you know of any besides HoloEmblem and Drama Emblem, BTW? I donât.)
Maybe itâs just a choice the respective authors chose. I wouldnât hold it against them

Understandable. Putting that much effort into a one-off boss sounds harder than necessary.
Do you know of any similar crossover hacks BTW?
LMAO
i probably messed with some values somewhere and forgot to change them
well i guess this is a reason for me to get back to work
Itâs probably safer as a crossover dev to use generic baddies, or copies of the characters explicitly said to be AU versions of them, as villains. Otherwise youâd get some fans mad their favourite character is OOC and on the side of evil.
The only other FE crossover I know of is Pokemblem. Itâs got Pokemon.
Thatâs understandable, but shouldnât some of those franchises have enough evil characters, even minor ones, to fill an FE boss roster? And yes, I did know about Pokemblem, and itâs more like âPokemon ported to Fire Emblemâ. An amazing effort, but not the type of hack I was thinking about.
What type did you mean? One where Pokemon characters like Ash and Misty meet N from the games and Ruby from the comic and talk to each other in long cutscenes and fight Team Rainbow Rocket?
As for the boss roster thingâŚ
Just imagine being a fan of⌠I donât know, Shadow The Hedgehog from Sonic The Hedgehog. Youâre a huge fan of him and you play a Sonic Fire Emblem game specifically to see more of him. But when you finally meet Shadow in the game, heâs just written as a one-note grumpy jerk who sucks and calls everyone else losers, and then the game says you have to kill him. You canât recruit him, befriend him, see his support conversations, see him grow, see his rough edges soften and icy exterior melt, see him accept technical help for the first time since Maria when Tails helps him repair his motorcycle, see him reminisce about Maria with Eggman, see him teach Cream how to shoot guns and learn gardening from her mother, take him into the final battle with you to see his unique dialogue before and after you kill the Dark Dragon. You just kill him and move on. He has less plot relevance than Farber.
Compare that to Sonic And The Black Knight. You run into the settingâs AU version of Knuckles The Echidna and kick his ass. And then he âŚdude go look the scene up on youtube right now if you havenât seen it already. No emotional connection is ruining it for you, and itâs interesting to see how differently from canon he acts here. Heâs not âAnnoyingly OOCâ like Shadow is in Sonic Boom, heâs âSir Gawainâ and his strong resemblance to âKnuckles The Echidnaâ is purely coincidental and has no lore implications whatsoever. But still, this could have been a made up character with his own name and face. Itâs a fun cameo, but itâs not a great role, and itâs a waste of a good character.
Now imagine being a huge fan of Gawr Gura. You love her, watch all her streams, laugh at her jokes, feel bad for her when sheâs sick, cheer her on when she performs. You love her on stream persona and her more real moments. And in a Hololive fangame you played specifically because you wanted to see more of her, âThe real Gawr Gura seen when the cameras arenât rollingâ is portrayed as a violent alcoholic bratty jerk who torments and abuses her coworkers, and you have to kill her and move on. Sheâs a wrecking ball on the side of evil none of her coworkers like, not even the evil ones. Everyone who talks to her thinks sheâs stupid and annoying. You canât recruit her and see cute scenes where she interacts with Korone or anyone else. You donât recruit her after kicking her ass and sparing her and then killing her evil boss who forced her to be evil for a while. Sheâs not the final boss with an understandable motivation and bad methods for achieving it like wanting her overworked friends to take a break and have fun with her, sheâs just a disposable underling working for the main villain Omega Alpha or Yagoo or Nijisanji or whatever. Imagine how seeing that would piss people off and wouldnât be worth it when drawing a helmet and angry eyes onto one of Pekoraâs Nousagis to fill that disposable villain role means both less work and less angry fans. Even with the excuse that this isnât the real Gawr Gura and this is just her AU version in this fantasy role, putting her in a role as crappy as this is a waste of a good character.
The âDisposable douchebag FE villain you canât recruitâ is a bad role for named characters people like in crossovers. Even not being part of the game at all is better, because it means the character could be added in an update DLC-style locked behind an optional area or event.
That isnât what I meant about the generic baddies problem.
I do think thereâs a way around it with both of the hacks you mentioned. This was my actual meaning, BTW.
Sonic: IIRC there are enough evil characters across the franchise to fill one boss roster. The Deadly Six, Infinite, Hard-Boiled Heavies, E-100 Series, etc. I didnât mean someone like Shadow. Someone like Heavy Gunner having the same amount of plot relevance as Farber, being a random Eggman Empire general you fight and destroy, might work. In fact, if you grab someone more obscure like the Jackal Squad they might have MORE relevance than canon. Just find characters who would NOT be OOC if they were one-off chapter bosses.
Hololive: There arenât enough evil charactrers in HoloLive, but I do think that the Holostars being the one-off chapter bosses of HoloEmblem couldâve worked, considering that hack has Capture. Could portray the lot as people who are being forced to fight under the villain, and used Fates-style capture to recruit all of them. Large amounts of support arenât necessary, just some boss convos, a portrait, a sprite, and enough to be a base playable. So maybe adding them in as a boss DLC could have worked, with the Nousagis only being a temporary thing. Sure, there being no âDisposable douchebag FE villain you canât recruitâ among even the chapter bosses would also feel odd, but hey, itâs better than the idea you put up.
