Story planning for a romhack

Hello, I’ve been writing a very fire emblem inspired story, I’d be interested if anyone thinks this story is worth making into a rom hack?

It’s called “Crusader - The Silver Sword” on Royal Road or Ao3, please let me know if it’s worth making into a game!

If you think it would be fun, it’s worth giving it a go! What are they crusading against?

It’s historical fiction, I blended two of my favourite stuff, Fire Emblem and Vinland Saga, but whilst it’s based on real events, I think it could be a good rom hack

Do you think that this video game medium is a good fit for the story you want to tell? With FE in particular, I find its framework tends to lend itself better to stories centered around larger ensemble casts rather than closely focusing on like 1-3 core protagonists. Not to say that a story like that can’t work well in FE (Drums of War is a strong example of this) but I think it can sometimes be a bit more challenging to make that kind of story the best it can be in an FE form.

I fully encourage you to try if you think what you’ve made would mesh well with the bread and butter of what makes FE itself.

Well, I’m not too sure, maybe I will finish the story, then after I will see, but this story is taking forever because of the scope, and I have to research historical accuracy, it’s either I make it a romhack or publish it lmao.

Thank you for the input :slight_smile:
