>>712669972For me, that can be forgiven,
However, the game is just ugly as fuck and ruined the character designs
>>712666437Anon, fans tend to be parasocial with this kind of genre. Just look at the threads in 4chan, look at the Japanese Market, which eclipses the West.

>>712666437Rival marriage only works if the game is catered to one gender and they actually have asshole rival that feels cathartic to cuck.
Is it true that you can only see dialogue for the romantic social activities such as hug and sharing a parasol once and thatโs it?
>>712677283auto skip repeated social activities is on by default. You can turn it off.
>>712676870she's cuter as a giant green pepper though

>>712678907can't sakuna get something like 11-15 rice paddies in a day? Rice takes 6 days to grow so even aiming for the low estimate she can handle 66 total fields if you stagger planting them. That's a lot of rice!

It's diy lolcow milking
>>712679348It seems like the rival poster AKA the Rivalcuck should fucking hang himself then lol
>>712679453You're not good at getting a hint, are you?
If you didn't sperg out every time someone mentioned the rivals system, they would stop. Full stop.
There's no reason to stop if the lolcow (ie you) keeps engaging and types up tl;dr posts crying about it
>>712679653Why? I am not the one who's so pressed that he has to samefag a lot because none of us wanted to play along with his mental illness.
>>712679849You are the one, however, who gives it attention every time it's posted without fail, who goes on easily identifiable rants about people being cucks and how you're not going to buy GB because it has rival events, and brings up your imaginary enemy "ruining the comfy threads" when it's you taking the obvious bait that derails and ruins the threads.
>>712680256>PeopleIt's one person samefagging. Literally exposed himself.
>>712680256lol defending himself by pretending he's someone else how fucking pathetic
I just don't understand why people feel so threatened by a rivals system, its only purpose was to make the game more interesting.
It's literally impossible to not get the girl you want because you can even steal them mid-marriage.
I would understand if you were bitching about the HM one because that one was designed to fuck you up if you weren't actively working on your relationships, but the one in RF2 was barely noticeable, you didn't even get rival love events, it was just the marriage.
>>712680686>if you were bitching about the HM one because that one was designed to fuck you up if you weren't actively working on your relationships,Bullshit, even in HM the only time you'd ever lose a girl to a rival was if you were a genuine incompetent retard who'd have been kicked out by the mayor ages ago
>>712680686even the animal parade system would work well
you can straight up tell the other guy to fuck off
>>712680686Because people are parasocial as you can see from the previous threads. Mixing rivals with a dating sim isn't the smartest thing to do with the Japanese crowd and all. And also, Azuma doesn't even tease rivals so why even post that here in the first place?
How do I ride the air current in the winter cave? It worked when I did it next to Watarase's house.
>>712681262The winter cave with the big rocks?
Are you coming at it from the side or from below? There's a section of that cave that isn't on the map that is the key
And if you are coming from there, stand on the current and jump
Can I do the summer fireworks festival of I don't have Kanata yet?
>>712681171>Azuma doesn't even tease rivals>Kai/Kanata>Matsuri/Murasame
>>712681262Equip Umbrella, jump, float
Dont worry Matsuri eventually those brain cells will rub together.
And if they don't we'll rub another way.
It's okay to be a meathead.
>>712681460Yes, it worked for me yesterday.
>>712680686I'm fine with the idea of some bachelors and bachelorettes pairing up after the player gets married to someone else, as opposed to be forever alone, but some weird NTR 'rival' guy is weird.
I love some pandering but I think this game goes a bit too far.
Hina is pretty much begging me to breed her on bond dialogues and I'm still on my first week.
Older RF titles barely gave you romance'ish advances until you're like 5-7FP/LP.
It feels cheap.
>>712681171Shipfags are annoying as well I'm fine not having them at all thank you
So if you actually pick bonds as a sacrifice do you have to rewatch all bond scenes/redo bond quests?
How is this explained in-story? You forget everyone and everyone also forgets you?
Weird how two other options affect MC only.
>>712682907you'd only lose like 1 or 2 points in them, hardly a sacrifice.
>>712680686>you can even steal them mid-marriageYeah, I'm not interested in a girl who was that close to getting married to another guy after getting close to me, and the type willing to ditch a guy they were that close to marrying. It's messed up in all levels.
>>712682976Why is this even a choice then
>hey, let this person die or lose literally nothing
>>712683448Woolby tricking you into thinking selling your soul to others is a bad thing
>>712683448Oops I mean bond levels. Yeah, the choices are really dumb. Old devs would've screwed the player and decrease all his seed points.
>>712683448It's for people who think it's better for the childhood friend to die than live and suffer from getting cucked
>>712665981There's a third field?
>>712683623I mean, if the choice is between a penalty and saving an important character, and a bachelor/bachelorette at one I would expect the penalty to be pretty substantial.
I would have probably still bitched about it, but would understand why they did it.
Why isn't she romanceable bros? Why must this series constantly do this to me
It's kinda wild how all of GoA is happening in the bumfuck nowhere boonies of Azuma, people in the capital/major settlements just end up hearing that over the course of a season all of their missing gods have come back from their slumber, the evil blight spreading dragon's been defeated, and the Neo Sechs Empire got defeated and subsumed into one of those random frontier villages
>>712684201>Why isn't she romanceable bros? Same reason why Hound isnโt for the fujos, cockteasing.
>>712662626 (OP)Beat the story in Summer 26th
Since I held off on dating anyone I think I'm gonna go for Clarice if her bond quest is good
*ahem* does creamapi work for this game?
Barging into this wooly couple's home and assaulting them feels wrong...
>>712685074I laughed when I found out you can still beat or maybe burn the wool off of woolies
>>712670981Rival marriages are probably the one thing that would kill the game for me. Druing the GBA/DS eras and before I barely tolerated them but I'm done tolerating that shit, there's plenty of HM and RF clones these days.
>>712685185based and same
>>712677998>we WANT the 3Housesfags and the GenshinfagsHow horrifying.
>>712685185The funny thing is even all the clones of HM now I can't even think of any of them that have rival marriage. Nobody wants it.
>>712677998and stardew valley which is the most popular farming dating simulator doesn't have a rival system!
see? i can cherrypick too!
>>712685407I'll be honest here, I almost screamed at my screen "HUG HER" during her main story scenes
Girl really could use a hug...
>>712685608The Western fans kept asking so Evershine will have it for minor characters (characters that don't havefull romances or are part of the main story), the Japanese and Chinese fans want that shit far away. Seeing the West vs East fenale players is fun, the Western girls want baras and widowers while the Eastern fans want the prettyboys.
>>712685608i feel like most people don't really care about it. the ones begging for it are middle aged women and homosexual. i remember the director of the hm/sos games saying, in an interview, that it's a hassle to script and most people in jpland wouldn't mind it removed, so they scrapped it.
>>712685970>Western girls want baras and widowers>widowersI don't want that
>>712684287Shut up houndfag. It's nowhere near the same. Hound is a bloodthirsty genocidal maniac that has wiped out entire populations for shits and giggles, and then is one of the few in RF shitty enough to earn the right to actually fucking die in the story and stay dead. It's not the same as the dragon goddess you're friends with the whole story and it's not the same as the neko izakaya owner who otherwise have no reason not to form lasting interpersonal relationships.
>>712685998JPfags dislike it because the girls and guys are designed for each other and (you) are the one breaking them up, sometimes they are childhood friends. CNfags are purityfags that don't like seeing other character's romances.
>>712686153It's not something I'd mind if the character is good, but I'm definitely not going out of my way to look for one
>>712686350some jpfags are also purityfags, thoughbeit.
>>712686153Thry had a poll to upgrade 4 minor romances to major romances during development, and look who the girls voted for vs who the guys voted for.
>>712686549100% gays for this shit

Hound is a bloodthirsty genocidal maniac that has wiped out entire populations for shits and giggles, and then is one of the few in RF shitty enough to earn the right to actually fucking die in the story and stay dead.Yeah but they didnโt have to make his design the way they did if they werenโt intent on cockteasing fujos, they couldโve made him look like the old man Nazi who took care of Clarice instead. Even the director retweeted Hound/Kaguya fanart.

>>712687176why would they bother doing shit that is divisive towards their core fanbase?
Talismans suck.
Also whose idea was it for the ranged weapon to include a backstep that puts you even further out of range?
Marvelous looking at how the black character is always the least romanced and going "grand bazaar needs a black woman with frizzy hair and her personality is described as strong, tough and independent" is always funny, I'm surprised they didn't make her from Wakanda too.
>>712686549>>712686763>That โdiverseโ castGross, why the fuck does every Western made lifesim have to feature the colors nogs and browns? Why are all lifesim indie creators retarded leftists? Having a multiculti community that looks like the streets of LA instead of a traditionally ethnically homogeneous rural town common in farm life isnโt comfy nor cozy.
Having to manually schedule contests is dumb.
Shit, I posted in the wrong thread. Anyway:
I'm 10 hours in and have been immediately evicting every big eater assigning villagers to shops or logging/mining while I just farm myself. Is there anything else to worry about or watch out for with these villagers? Also great game so far

>>712687556The studio is based out of China though. It's just that they speak more with the Western side because they use crowd funding. These are the main romances while two of the side romances got upgraded to being core romances which was decided by a Backer vote.
>>712687960Subaru and Matsuri are just Okinawa brown, but lots of the villagers have super dark skin.
>>712688156Because there are more and more gays in Japan. Unironically. But also because the west bitch hard enough with RF4/RF5 that they don't want to a repeat of last time

>>712688663>Clarice pitted against UlalakaI thought itโs Kaguya? Ulalaka is pitted against Iroha.
I hope Grand Bazaar is the final nail to the coffin of that dying franchise. Literally one the least popular entries in the series.

>>712688732Not-Tear I remember being best girl.
>>712688747It's everyone else vs Ulalaka. She's too strong
>>712688867>Steam tooNice.
>>712688867Not really, Freya was a bitch to court.
Who would win, the dragons, the gods of the land, or the Turnip-Rice-Honey alliance (and they have Sakuna and light eaters on their side)?
>>712688865To be fair, in a way itโs better to remake a bad game so you can try and make it better and donโt have as much to lose, than remake a game that was great already and risk making it demake.
>>712688865They can just keep remaking games which is probably what they will do.
>>712688865I think tale of two towns is worse
>>712689084POOT is the actual worst
They really should rerelease just vanilla Animal Parade on Steam/other platforms
It's great as is, only thing that would need to be fixed was the horrendous frame rate
>>712688965I meant personality-wise. But yeah, Freya is a pain to court, and amusingly enough, also has the worst rival events in the game because it ignores her own personality to hook her up. She's supposed to be a mild ice queen you defrost but she's on Ivan's dick from black heart, her events with the player are way better.
>>712689116Oh yeah, without a doubt
>>712689147I forgot about the rivals, yeah that sucked too.
>>712689084>>712689116Grand Bazaar sold less than those two. Literally the most forgettable HM game in the franchise.
>>712689237I remember the rival events in the newer games being really shit because it felt like it was written for shippers. Not "two characters become friends and closer overtime" but immediate romance from black heart. Which may answer why they fell out of favor.
>>712689116>>712689084Original DS, Island of Happiness, Grand Bazaar, Tale of Two Towns, POOT
Story of Seasons really has had more kusoge then not huh?
>>712689402I remember the island one also has this problem. I completely wiped that off my memory.
>>712689429>Original DSWoah there, son
That game might have been a glitchtastic mess, but outside that it was basically FoMT but way better
>>712689398>Literally the most forgettable HM game in the franchise.Nah, Grand Bazaarโs character designs and setting still felt inspired. POOT literally felt like a town full of generic NPCs from a Pokemon game or something, even the marriage candidates.
>>712689398>sold less than ToTT and PooTGod damn that's brutal, it's arguably better than both.
>>712689429It's really infuriating because original SoS and Trio of Towns are among my favourite games in both the franchise and genre, but then they just stopped being able to make those.
>>712689661Yeah, POOT feels robotic as fuck.
>>712689429That era was a dark time for BM games in general
They frantically tried to find a new/working gimmick and pushed a lot of people away in the process
>>712689773>Implying the Switch era hasnโt been a new Dark Ages for Bokumono, potentially even worse than the DS era
>>712689852>Rune Factory: A Harvest Moon Fantasy
>>712689734>It's really infuriating because original SoS and Trio of Towns are among my favourite games in both the franchise and genre, but then they just stopped being able to make thoseYeah. It really felt like they were starting to figure things out with those games, but I guess the transition to having to leave handhelds like the 3DS behind meant they never figured out how to do proper console/PC games.
>>712688363She just doesn't feel like the same kid from 5.
>>712689850The AWL remake was pretty good though, they clearly learned their lesson from the FOMT remake for the most part
>>712689734>It's really infuriating because original SoS and Trio of Towns are among my favourite games in both the franchise and genre, but then they just stopped being able to make those.Because Hashimotoโs team went bankrupt or something so they kicked him off of Bokumono. The bankruptcy is probably also the reason why RF5 is so bad, Hakama only has pennies to their budget now.
>>712688501I didn't even play 5
How do I reach this frog?
>>712690061 Very carefully.
>>712690061Pay attention to the puzzle, if its the daruma room its the left path.
If that's the secret back room theres a destroyable wall behind you after you fall in
>>712688363She just feels added in unlike the other candidates, and her personality is nothing to write home about.
>>712689948>AWL remake>GoodNo it was censored slop. They redesigned Murray, changed the Blue Bar into a โcafe,โ and removed anything that could be triggering such as you abusing your kid or two-timing the girls and then them coming over and chewing you out over it.

>>712689908>Afraid of being rejected for being a half breedShe should just move to Sharence, sheโd welcomed with wide arms there.
>>712688276At least in Japan she is popular like the second most popular. She just isn't first because Ulalaka exists.
>>712690420She's not even a half breed, she's a quarter. She was rejected because she WASN'T a half breed, and because she wasn't a half breed she was born a fucking womanlet.
>>712690061Assuming that's the maze room, the main trick is that you can jump over the walls using the small props on the ground or by lowering the gear platforms and climbing up onto those first.

>>712691212I find it easier if I set a theme, but don't stick to it completely. It lets me plan out an area better.
I set that one up like a little park with a barbecue overlooking the beach, and slapped in some shops to wall it away from the main road, a some carts to add a little people-clutter.
Then I put the little garden there instead of another building to stop it from feeling claustrophobic, but because it's too small to look like an actual farm, I'm sticking every pot plant I get to make look more like the hobby garden of the owner of the building next to it.
Also plan where you want to put your trees, because then you can plan your buildings and paths around them in a way that looks natural.

>Ulalaka is into muscles

>>712691631Undecided. But when I first saw the list of heroines I really liked Clarice & Kanata's designs.
At about 27 hours in and only just met Clarice, with no signs of Kanata.
Maybe I should focus on the story, but it feels like RF5 and meeting Lewdmila after about 50 hours.
How much longer after the Winter Village for them two?
>>712692679Clarice is post game which you're still quite a ways off from.
Kanata is kind of near, but you have to unlock another god before her first after winter
>>712691621It's a good thing Matsuri can't read or she'd beat you up for writing that

Depressed childhood friend

>>712691525big unromanceable dark skinned tities
>>712688663Never would have worked out.
>>712690518That's just pathetic.
>>712694883I'm not sure which part you're saying is pathetic but her village is actually fucking trash and it genuinely gets worse for her. It's why she's incredibly insecure.
>>712694941Her not even fitting in with bear fuckers is pathetic. Her lack of a tail makes sense however.
>>712689923Lots of people forget that even back then, she was a precocious bratty girl.
Considering her personality framework, it make sense that she'd grow up to be who she turned out to be in Azuma.
Also, people forget that her mother was Misasagi, a very standoffish single mother. Grown up Hina definitely took on some of her mother's more abrasive pecularities.
>>712695273She sounds like a bitch.
>>712695391Pitfalls of growing up without a proper father figure.
Closest one she got is a retarded (but still very nice) dudebro.
>>712695142Those bearfuckers are assholes. She only had her (adoptive) father and she was basically a runt, so they treated her like shit and isolated her. [Which is why she made friends with spirits that she could see, because she otherwise had no friends but her adoptive dad. But then when Kamurosaki came in and killed all their warriors they kneeled to her and made her hunt for them because the ones that didn't die couldn't do shit for themselves. But even after she leaves for "Revenge", they try to get her to come back using her own adoptive father (he couldn't really read or write) so that she could provide for them again. It's fucked, and they really screwed her over. Bears hate. Pilika love.
Wait, Pilika is actually part bear? I thought that was a joke...
>>712694882Pilika.
She's a fucking bear.
>>712695491Yeah but she smol. The smallest in fact. Naturally that causes bullying. Comes with the title.
How many rice paddy can one villager manage?
>>712695746Yes

>>712695930I give her a lantern because I'm autistic.

Livia is way cuter than Venti.
She also admits that she's so spiritually and runically(?) fucked that she can barely go dragon anymore, and that her human form is so weak that even fucking Julian can manhandle her tiny body effortlessly. JUST IMAGINE.

>>712698614I evict timid worrywarts with zero hesitation despite being one myself
>>712698614They squander your grace with their indolence. If they cannot feed themselves, they can feed the soil.
>>712696281Don't think we ever had her without the seed costume before. Didn't notice she had that tail hidden
Wow
50 hours in and I just realized the damage numbers change color depending on the weaknesses and resistances of your enemy
grey numbers=bad
white=neutral
orange=super effective
>>712699048What, why?
How?
What is the stupid shit I'm gonna have to do?
What the fuck have I done to myself Anon?
>>712699274 You can get to rank 7 but once you do the first date it's over if you haven't beaten the game because you won't be able to ask her out for the second date because of a shitty bug
>What will you have to doEither marry someone else to unlock the alternate lives so you can marry her
Or supposedly deactivating and reactivating the DLC also works
>>712699274Not him
When you reach bond level 8 (i think) after confessing, if you don't beat the final boss literally that same day, you'll get softlocked because the "wait till tomorrow" checkbox will be checked but it will never get recognized as checked
>>712699473I never really used elemental weapons
I basically just facerolled with an element-less long sword
>>712699586You didn't use Matsuri's weapon at all in her area?
>>712699752Not really, it's actually my lowest leveled relic

NOT ON MY WATCH, BUDDY
>>712698614>Productivity 1>Slacker>Big eater>WorrywartI have evicted /v/ so many fucking times and he still keeps coming back.
How was I supposed to fight the White Wolf the right way? I saw that it was Fire ele in the HP bar so I tried to use the parasol but it did jack shit for damage. I had to wail on it for 8 minutes.
>>712698614>>712700113At first I tolerated idiots like these because it said "YOU WILL NEVER SEE THEM AGAIN" and kinda felt for em, but by the time I got the third one I started culling.
It made me realize a lot about myself.
I'm surprised that they didn't have Mihoshi Habaki recreate a new "town" area that's just a large flat space we can do anything with. Really seems like an easy thing that they just didn't do.
>>712700408Fire ele by the hp bar means it's weak to fire. Those icons pop up when you find a boss' weakness.
>>712700471I'm more sad you can't renovate your old and busted town
>>712700408That's the element it's weak to, not the element it is.
>>712700408You're the smartest person in this thread, anon. Keep living to spite us all.
>>712700408Is this Matsuri
>>712700416I have yet to cull anyone. Not because I'm scared to, I just don't feel it's right to throw the elderly out on their asses. I'd rather have an inefficient system than a cruel one.
Unless we're literally dying from inefficiency (which we're not), then it might be time to make some tough choices.
>>712695930Play her this

>>712700697Inefficiency is fine if they're cute.
If they're not though...
>>712697501Where do the water come from?
>>712700697>PicWhy are birds so stupid and creepy at same time? Is this because they are dinosaurs?
>>712698234My wife and our two children
>>712700818Just wait until you look in the ocean. We got glowies, we got living water filters, we got plants that walk around, we got organic growing rocks, and fucking octopuses. Need I say anything about the fucking octopuses?
>>712700773It's Minecraft water
This dude is seriously the easiest townie to satisfy, and he even lets me skip whole hours each time

C:
What's your guys' favorites weapons? I tried talisman cause I'm a magicfag but it kinda sucked ass so now I'm just full Kirito with dual blades.
>>712701097I just short sword all day every day
>>712701097Short Sword and Bows
Why complicate things?
>>712701097Long sword, because of how satisfying charging up and just mashing enemies hp bars felt
Though now that I have an RP bar worth a damn I mostly just abuse the fan
>>712701097I went long sword first for big stick swings, which was fun. For my second run I go daggers, they are also fun

>>712701097I just unlocked this. There's not that many games that allow you to use a Kanabo
>>712701097Yeah talismans are ass, I'm gonna use my general points to level their skill tree.
Does the game just end after talking to Mihoshi Habanero at the forest of endings? is there nothing to do with your divinity after that, no extra stuff?
>>712701736Shameless slut flashing her pits to make shota peepees hard.
>>712701885Absolutely nothing
>>712701097I spam sacred tools most of the time
otherwise I mostly use a bow
>just bust into a wooly couple sleeping and fucking brutally murder them with 1 charged kanabo hit
>See big turnip
>Hit F to harvest
>It takes the plot and gives me a seed back
Why...
>>712701097Leveling DualBlades and Fan for the dodge time shit.
But I enjoy Longsword Charge + Matsuri flame the most.
>>712701239If only there was weapon skin swapping too, I wanna ungabunga 4 of these with Matsuri, Iroha, and Zaza
>>712701885I mean it's not like anything truly changed for you even after that convo when you were already doing that job anyway
>>712702245>he pressed the remove button instead of harvest Matsuri...
>>712702713Remove is shift and requires you to hold it. There's no messing that up.
