Players report Fortune's Weave single save slot and deadline mechanics frustrate progress

gamingSep 27, 202642541

In Fire Emblem Fortune's Weave, early players have zeroed in on the game’s single save slot and strict deadline system after several reports that missing a deadline forces replaying an entire chapter. Many posts show players grappling with weekly errands and free time decision paralysis while following Leda’s revenge route, with one player noting they only reached chapter 5 free time after 15 hours. Players also call out Dante as a late recruit who can harm unit strength if missed, and the difficulty has pushed people to design original characters and revive zine ideas to process the grind and long playtime.

I feel the same! But you just gotta remember to have fun! Don't be "optimal" if it's miserable!

Finished Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave. .... Kidding this game is massive but still trying my best to fulfill Leda's lust for revenge.

I appreciate how extreme she can get, she holds nothing back.

Leda's route, her intensity (and desire for murder 😂), it was definitely interesting + fun. 👍

Yeah I started with Leda as well haha. Angry dancer is a fun new take for the series.

Fortune's Weave only having a single save slot and making you re-do an entire chapter if you miss a deadline is fucking diabolical

Sigh. Fortune's Weave is a ten-million-hours-long game, yet I find myself wishing all eight of the Flame Lords had their own playable paths. I really like all of these weirdos. I want Orchel Video Game

FEFW giving me massive decision paralysis during free time segments so I started parsing this out instead (WIP Dagsion day theme, Throngs of Dagsion - Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave). Should prob start using the auto activities function

omg this is amazing! so happy to see you posting arrangements for a new FE game! can't wait to hear your take on Leda's theme, perhaps with some guitar/violin friends! 🥰

LOVE this arrangement! The rhythmic influences in this soundtrack are so peak! (But I’m with you, major decision paralysis. I end up just wandering the world map and hoping I’m not making terrible mistakes.)

fortunes weave making dante this attractive but also making her a late recruit on all routes in the game that fucks units over very badly for being late recruits is fucked

You can tell it's a classic FE game because they did this to Karla Marissa and Lucia too

I just started Fortune's Weave! I wonder if this will kickstart the FE zine community again. It's a shame it peaked (and imploded) during 3H, but I miss fan art books of my fave characters...Alexandra zine when???

Went with Leda's story in Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave and been enjoying her path to vengeance so far

Stylized fanart of Leda from Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave based on the gun meme where she's pointing a pistol with a floating hand at the viewer while making an eerie smile.
