Fire Emblem Deity Device.
Is that enough? It’s 20+ chapters, finished and it’s three parts. If you have played Metal Gear Solid, Final Fantasy, and so on.

He said “not stupidly long.” Deity Device is over 40 chapters long.
Edit: Not to denigrate the thing (I mean I liked it enough to want to make portraits for it), but that’s not what was requested.

It look’s really cool! might want to try it myself!
Oh, and do I have to of played the hack to tell you about it?

I didn’t expect it to be the total opposite of what he meant by long.
If you never played it, Dark Lord and the Maiden of Light is a great one. It as a very good vibes of a Fire Emblem that could have existed on the GBA, and it as some very clever level design

I’m gonna be that guy and recommend my own hack mostly because the hacks I have played are some of the most well known out there and you’ve most likely already played them.
sword of heaven and earth, project ember, vision quest
I recommend Sun God’s Wrath. Not too long and has some of the best features in any hack I’ve played like scrolls and movement level ups like thracia. The story can get confusing at times but the gameplay makes up for it ten fold. So many unique player and enemy classes. I could go on. Also start out playing normal if you do, hard can be rather punishing for those not familiar with the mechanics and design. Good luck!
Maybe someone knows some hacks with more of a serious tone and no sword protagonist XD
Seriously though, I’m going to remove swordmasters if I ever make a hack.
Very well I shall try out what you have baked and write a review after.

wait seriously? Thanks a lot, I haven’t gotten much feedback on the project yet so getting a review on it will be super helpful!
While I can confirm that Deity Device is stupidly long, all the protagonists are mages and the playable Myrmidon is so bad that I get hassled about how bad she is fairly regularly.

Is all of the unit’s mage’s a serious statement?
is ALL of the units REALLY mages? and the myrmidon.
Not all of the units, all of the “lords.”
ooooohhhh, ok. sorry! 
Ok, played the hack, it was terrible.
The story is a mess, really.
I think this Sol fella is an immortal demon that is reincarnated? But it was super confusing. Half of the dialogue being written with low caps and no comas didn’t help too.
It was dumb as all hell but I managed to make it fun for me by breaking the game entirely due to the number of bugs.
But the real question is… is it like The Last Promise level of it or not?
Last Promise was a lot better than Host of the Dark.
You could at least follow the story there and the maps weren’t empty deserters to f nothingness. Apart from being extremely corny, TLP is actually a very competent hack.

It’s kind of a mess but curiosity begs me to ask, how much did you play?
Its certainly a hack that wasn’t made with average skill in mind some of the later maps are actually pretty good, minus the like last 5, and the story is actually about a 7-8/10 for me. It’s just a little unfortunate that if you don’t pay 100% attention to all of it then it gets stupidly confusing.
As far as Sol, not a reincarnating demon, you just don’t kill him or other certain important characters the first time you meet then.
It really is just kind of weighed down by some really bad ideas, such as two bosses that literally have 100+ crit.
okay before I say anything I just want to tell you that the only thing about your comment that bugs me is the fact that you didn’t reply to my comment, while yes I am seen floating around many threads I could just completely miss this, when talking about someone’s work at their request it is courteous to inform the person of when you actually say something about it. If this is simply a mistake then forgive me for bringing it up.
now then, I can’t exactly get a lot from your small comment, the only thing directly useful I can gain is to pay more attention to punctuation, I would prefer it if you would provide examples if you play a hack and say you’ll review it I assume you would think about taking screenshots or at least mentally note specific examples. A simple bug report is appreciated as well, what bugs did you find? I playtest my hacks a lot so if you found a bug I would very much like to fix that.
other than that I have no issue with your criticism, in fact, I prefer honest criticism of anything I do, it allows me to grow.
tldr: tell me when you state your opinion on my hack in the thread where you said you would and be specific with your account.
