  • Thanks to Pheonixmaster1 for the thumbnail!
    As the disclaimer in the beginning says, please watch in a resolution that allows 60fps!
    Otherwise you might miss some frames in some fast animations!
    I truly cannot believe it.
    It's finally done.
    I poured my heart and soul into this.
    I started this project way back in 2008 or 2009 I believe.
    Yes it's been that long.
    I wanted to remake this video because of how cringey my old video was.
    (I think someone even reuploaded it and I don't like it lol)
    I spent a lot of time crafting a scene around each clip through ROM and RAM hacking.
    I timed the music so that it just felt right.
    Some remenants of previous iterations that got scrapped might show through (like a ROM hacked battle frame for Hector).
    But I really just didn't want to redo previous portions of the video as the music transition was already synced to certain clips.
    I removed custom animations and most reference to ROM hacks unless they were really early in the video or would screw up some other clip/music timing.
    If it has a custom battle frame, it's ROM hack footage.
    Thank you for being on this decade+ long journey.
    I hope you Fire Emblem fans enjoy.

    Beta Animations included:
    ・Eliwood Durandal Beta 206 (Short Durandal)
    ・Eliwood Durandal Beta 219 (Long Durandal)
    ・Lyn Durandal
    ・Eirika
    ・Revenant
    ・Bonewalker
    Note: Some sound effects have been fixed through video editing (some stuff is silent or breaks BGM)
    That includes:
    ・FE6 Female Sage (FE6 didn't have sound for the crit. It was added in FE7.)
    ・FE6 Female Druid (Same as Female Sage)
    ・Promoted Eirika (unmounted)
    ・Revenant
    ・Bonewalker
    Some items were also modified to have different ranges to showcase sword animations.
    Such as Audhulma and Maltet to have ranged Ice Spell (Fimbulvetr) animations thematic to their item lore description about being ice legendary weapons.
    Some animatons had to be modified:
    ・Promoted Eirika (Her crit used the normal hit effect, but worked properly)
    ・Sword General Ranged (No weapon glow)
    ・Sword Great Knight Ranged (No weapon glow)
    Fully unique animations in FE7 for alternative classes are included.
    ...that being Hawkeye.
    I tried to include some like Lloyd or Nino... but at some point I decided it wasn't worth showcasing something like two extra thief and assassin animations for something like Legault's hair or Linus's slightly changed hero sprite.
    Special Thanks to:

    I love this so much. Crit animations have always been my favorite thing about the GBA titles, and it's beautiful to see everything put together here. And I love that you took the time to add in a range of different sprite animations for the same classes, both for differing gender sprites and varied character representation, even going so far as to tailor the opponent to each character. You put a ton of effort into this, and I thank you for that.
    And for the record, I love the pun clip too.

      Oh my god someone actually noticed the extra details I put in there. Thank you *cries*
      I think some people get confused by that if you scroll down...
      But it's details like that like how the Husbando Execution exhibition for Awakening had every battle map be the first place you recruit them/see them... Is what makes the stuff I make mine.
      I hated giving Echidna everything and even had a ROM hack sprite from DoF for it... But after some feedback I decided to remove as much of the ROM hack stuff as possible.

    • @KageRyu798
      @KageRyu798 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@shadowofchaos725 Oh yeah, I did see that comment on how you even made a spreadsheet to keep track of the classes and which characters would rep which, and even which map would be fitting. I really respect that kind of effort. I'm not enough of an FE nerd to recognize every setup, but I could tell from the ones I did recognize that you put thought into each one. (I had a chuckle from seeing Eirika get hit by crit Demon Light and then thinking "okay next must be Ephraim taking a crit punch" and being absolutely correct.)
      I also wanna add that I liked how you used a bunch of different tomes to showcase the mages, which besides adding variety to keep from staling and having different tomes to suit different characters, also doubled as a tome showcase. And my heart soared seeing Serra crit with Aureola, as she's my favorite FE7 mage and that's my favorite Light tome animation (actually my favorite tome animation in general). Gods I wish she could use that in Heroes.
      PS: I do remember the map thing in your Husbando Execution video as well! Though at the time I watched it, I think I was too proud of Cordelia moving on to mention it.

    I always love the Warrior's slick toss and catch and the fist pump dance they do. As a generic sprite, I like the implication of the unit, the individual character or the generic enemy, having a moment of celebration to themselves cuz of how awesome they are.
    Dorcas would be the last guy to celebrate a kill like that, but Bartre or Ross would definitely relish and dance in their victory in such a way.

    Welcome back!
    And a plenty of crits are for more iconic moments too
    And some of the boss HP look way higher than expected so there is probably modification, but it doesn't matter because we are here for the critical animations

    • @shadowofchaos725
      @shadowofchaos725  ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Boss HP were taken from Hector Hard mode and FE6 hard mode at least for final bosses. FE8 was taken from actual playthrough saves from 2018. I referenced the two FE wikis for most bosses. They never differed by more than 8 HP at most between those modes.
      So I actually don't know what you mean by way higher than expected.
      Batta was modded because Mani Katti would destroy him on first hit the way the tutorial fixes hits.
      Pretty sure Eliwood and Hector being able to fight says "I'm hacking every single one of these" right at the start.
      But no I still don't understand how its way higher than expected. All player units had their average stats hacked in unless there were situations that gave a "0% crit".
      Bosses need higher HP thresholds for the typical player not to one round them.

      Most of these clips are from actual stages in each game except for the arena memes to showcase non-rep characters I couldn't fit in.
      While I think the custom clips like Eliwood vs. Hector might confuse people and is understandable... Little details like this is what makes my take on videos mine.
