>>713781440...you're shitting me. He's godamn 60? I'd never have known listening to him do his hot blooded yells as I abuse the local wild life for sport.

>>713785705Woolby should give you hints on the village tab. Usually there are unmanned facilities or not enough housing space.
>>713785705It basically amounts to housing vs population
plop down more houses, think shops help too
my autumn village is the only one that doesnt have good housing or shops and its the only one that isnt maxed at 100
Not that it really matters, it seems you have to REALLY fuck it up for something to come from it

I finished the main story without confessing to anyone as I intend to date and marry Clarice. However I'm only two days away from the Summer Festival and I can't increase her bond enough to invite her to it. Who should I invite in her stead and cruelly lead on? Note that I'm playing as Kaguya and I consider all bachelors and bachelorettes eligible.
>>713783973I genuinely like GoA cutting out a lot of RF4's most excessive autisms, particularly soil shit and crafting BS with having to level it, and the breads, and wish they don't bring them back in RF6

>>713781213 (OP)I haven't done Matsuri's romance, but I can't possibly believe she's more dorky than Kanata.
Kanata's romance is about her and Rin working desperately to make her the ideal girlfriend for you, because Kanata's completely in love, Rin wants both of you to be happy, and they're both kind'a sure that you could have anyone you wanted so they're worried you'll break up with her. The God of Light and the Heavens is a nervous wreck that you're gonna dump her if she's a bad date lmao. They stay up too late planning out your second date that they somehow wind up agreeing that Kanata should just go ahead and put out.
Utterly adorkable.
So apparently Subaru can two-time Iroha and Ulalaka and they don't get mad about it.
>>713787934I can understand, I personally also don't care for autistic shit (for that I can fuck around with builds in Pathfinder, never did though). Farming was always bonus for me that makes game comfier and makes you care more about well-being of the village instead of being a travelling hobo solving problems. Also, fuck the soil system for not implementing crop rotation properly, instead you need to let fields rest or pump ground full of Formula A/B/C.

>>713790643>puts love potion in her dongos
>>713790765>not having to murder my wrists constantly moving back to and mashing the talk button just to see all their possible dialogue, and reactionsAre you new to RF spinoffs? Frontier and Tides also employed the use of a RNG-based dialogue system, whereas mainline generally just has the characters say only 1 thing per day.
>>713790845It's better to use RNG in this way than how RF4 did it.
>>713790845>whereas mainline generally just has the characters say only 1 thing per dayWhich is better since at least you're guaranteed to see all the dialogue they have that day quick and easy, even if they have a second line due to overlapping events, instead of having to talk to someone 50 times just to see them react to my kid

Way too anxious to date two girls at a time. Is there much character interactions to justify doing such a run?

>>713794289It would make sense IF you cannot drug the soil. Only way to improve stats would be proper management of fields and finding synergies between different crops. Only giantizer and minimizer had actual drawbacks because they were working against each other.

>>713795526>dear, it's milking time again!
>>713795170They still are, actually, any plantlife seems to be. Removing Blight revitalizes the land and allows it to produce more runes, always the problem was humans taking more than they should and not giving back by nurturing land. There is a reason why half of the village experience quests are concerning harvests and why removal of the Blight also matters, gods also derive their power from runes and I think that faith is only the conduit (taken how almost every time in the final battle, when you get your ass kicked, you are saved by power of friendship giving you extreme magic boost).
>>713795750Nah, this run is for the Elf. Xiao Pai will simply have to live (or not) with her reality.

Why do the seeds/crops even have levels? Outside of a couple quests requesting cooked items at like level 4, there is literally no use for them, especially anything past level 4

Absolutely brutal. The rest of the game was a massive improvement on RF5 though, so as long as they flesh the endgame out in RF6 it'll be fantastic.
>>713797467>and praysavescum*

>>713799545Maybe? I played like five hours of it before my Wii killed itself, so I wouldn't know.
>>713799545Just two. The basic theme is Aden's and the bachelorettes and the one with Sonja and her bachelors is technically post-game. The neat thing is that their OPs loop into each other.
If Azuma had a budget, we'd get one OP for Subaru and one for Kaguya. But again, I blame everyone being bisexual now so no more unique distinctions between Male and Female playthroughs.
>>713797134>tfw female players get our first taste of the Never Evers with HoundI donโt count Terry because they were planning to release him as DLC if 5 hadnโt flopped. I donโt count men like Carlos or Barret either because those games never planned to have a female protagonist in the first place unfortunately.
>>713799785>I blame everyone being bisexual now so no more unique distinctions between Male and Female playthroughs.Another attempt for being "inclusive" that's actually just an excuse to be lazy. Male-Male, Female-Female and Male-Female relationship dynamics are inherently different from each other. If they really actually wanted to be cool and inclusive, they'll actually have unique hetero and gay events for each character.
>>713800041>Male-Male, Female-Female and Male-Female relationship dynamics are inherently different from each other. Not really, even in same-sex relationships they inevitably slot into the โmaleโ (top) and โwomanโ (bottom) roles.

This game is hollow and undercooked. The new and improved graphic and combat doesn't nearly justify all the stuff taken away from previous entries. How social interaction seems like an improvement at first, but also it's all repetitive as fuck, and there's just an utter lack of dialogue variations in just about every interaction choices. Village building is actually pretty nice, but the fact that practically no building is even enterable is retarded. Too much cutting corners and not nearly enough to compensate it.
>>713811669And thatโs why this thread is so dead
>>713811769Every thread is slow, brother. It's been 3 weeks now.

>>713812287The farming was made with villager automation in mind, so you can spend your time watching the same social interaction animation and reading the same canned reaction dialogue, or engage in the laughably easy combat. Except that villager automation is also worse than previous game's monster automation, because fuck you for paying for this soulless garbage.

>>713811669>>713812681The social interactions were just meant to replace the hassle of gift-gifting, the real meat of the social system still lies in regular chatting and Bond Events like always.
>>713813310> still lies in regular chatting They royally fucked that up too.
3,4 (and hell, even 5 didn't fuck this part up) had context based dialogues based on where you found the NPCs at. Approach someone at their home, and depending on how close you are with them, they can vary on how welcoming they act. Talk to them while they're chatting with someone, and the other person they're talking to will barge in the conversation as well. There's a lot of situational variations and it will always make sense given where that NPC is at the moment.
In Azuma, you're given the illusion that the NPCs talk a lot, but it's more like they're robots that randomly pick from 30 responses no matter the time and place. NPCs have no schedule, no homes, no jobs (besides Takumi, Iroha and Yachiyo) and they don't even talk to each other. They're not townspeople part of a community. Every single NPC in GoA are lobotomized robots that wander and teleport around for no real rhyme or reason.

Are the people of Azuma so braindead that they need the Earth Dancer to grace them with their presence before they can actually act like normal people?

>>713814709If it makes you feel better, Cuilang doesn't' seem to have issues. Or at least the glaring one (head pat) is actually there. I did a rewoven fate in a now nuked save file just to see if it was there so I can email them and tell them it only seemingly applies to Pilika and he definitely had the headpat option (it just takes off his hat).

>>713812938Thank you anon
>>713814684Are you seriously remarrying Pilika over and over to try out all the available kid combos with her?
Wait, do your spouses actually have unique dialogue for each personality type of kid? So itโs worth it to use Rewoven Fates to go through all the different kid types with each spouse?
>>713814505You can't take a nap beside her because she jumps you for sex
>>713815160>Are you seriously remarrying Pilika over and over to try out all the available kid combos with her?Want all the bear ears and want all the silver haired children yes
>Wait, do your spouses actually have unique dialogue for each personality type of kid? SThey only really talk about the first kid.
>>713814505I finally started romancing here last night. Pilika is REALLY cute...but I kind of felt she was cuter when I thought she was schizo.
>>713815315>They only really talk about the first kid.But does each spouse have unique dialogue for each personality type of the first kid?
>>713815386Clarice, but actually better.
>>713815530What makes her better than Clarice?
>>713815386Raguna singlehandedly sent Norad's tech tree decades forward by dicking her and using her knowledge for non-Sechs benefit.
>>713815492I would have to get back to you on that because by the time the second kid happens that piece of dialogue ceases to exist and quite frankly I don't event remember if they differentiate.
>>713815625>Implying Raguna/Lynette is canonItโs Mist and is always going to BE Mist.
>>713814684>mom(dad) left to get milk in an alternate dimemsion so she could have different kids with the same woman instead of just having more children in the original timelineGrim. Brutal even. I can't even tell but its probably bad for the wife as well.
Pic related is a threat
However
>multiverse harem of infinite copies of the same womanHmmmmmm. New fetish unlocked?
>>713815613None of that dindu nuttin shit.
Lynette is an actual mad researcher/soldier who did a bunch of evil shit on her own accord and selfish ambitions. Only joined the good guys after her boss exiled her for being foiled by the Protagonist and told her to fucking kill herself. Became a townie and bachelorette, not out of a desire to turn a new leaf, but because she literally had nowhere else to go.
>>713815915>instead of just having more children in the original timelineTell the gods to let me fucking do it and I wouldn't have to go this far. But noooo those selfish fucks max out at 2 per timeline even though Pilika would absolutely love more children.
>>713813901>3,4 (and hell, even 5 didn't fuck this part up) had context based dialogues based on where you found the NPCs at. Approach someone at their home, and depending on how close you are with them, they can vary on how welcoming they act. I actually think thatโs only 1, 2, and Frontier.
3, 4, and 5 only had one dialogue a day with no location context. (Besides of course if you snooped through their rooms or other characters were there to chime in on the convo like 3 and 4)
>>713816157Pretty sure 3 and 4 had unique dialogues if you specifically approached someone while they were at work.
>>713816157>3, 4, and 5 only had one dialogue a day with no location context.They had a greeting before their actual dialogue though. The second line is the one that repeats if you keep talking to them in the same day but they'll only greet you once in dialogue.
>>713816294>They had a greeting before their actual dialogue thoughAh right, but wasnโt the initial greeting only based on season and time of day rather than location?
Can anyone tell me the stat bonuses on the decorations you find in the bonus dungeon? I was curious, but I went and finished the game and uninstalled without checking.
>>713815989>after her boss exiled her for being foiled by the Protagonist and told her to fucking kill herselfFirst sign of Ethelberd's retardation.
Listen, I don't care if I have a primary boner for tanks. If I had staff that could create artificial warp gates and partially resurrect an ancient Dragon God: "Fucking kys" is probably not one of the things I will tell them.
>>713816718If you think about it, Lynette being abandoned in Norad was probably a major divergence point in history.
We all know that Ethelberd developed a major boner for rune research after getting TURNIP'd by Terrable. Imagine how much smoother rune technology development in Sechs would've been if Lynette was still actually on board. Instead, he left probably the most brilliant mind in Sechs regarding rune matters to be turned into a buckbroken housewife by Earthchads in Norad.

>>713819950First set of kids is like 3 days, then 10 days after you say yes you want kids.
Then you have to wait a month for the second kid, then another 10 days after you tell your wife yes.

Why are all the descriptions and dialogue responses in RF4 so cringely meme-y?

Is there any bonds on the guy's side that's nearly as dramatic as Pilika's because jesus christ you would think Clarice would be full of drama but she wasn't even close. Like yeah she felt guilt but all it did was some Veyron words to make her accept it while Pilika's is a fucking roller coaster that even woolby had to step into

>>713815492Everyone has unique dialogue for each flavour of kid, as well as different lines for that unique dialogue if the kid is their own
>>713824310Would like to add that having the second kid, again, seems to completely invalidate the first and they just seemingly stop talking about them as far as I can see

Also, does it count for marrying Kaguya or Subaru? In that case it's probably scewed because every other achievment is only for one character.
>>713826594he had a hard life before running into the dragon
>>713813901Its all thanks to the portable medium, even 1 and 2 had those, the fact that it was easier to program and there was more time to put dialogues based on context but ever since they jumped the shark on the 3D, most of the ressources have been on making a "stable" game and even that failed and lets not talk about all the possible dlc content they skipped.
Not sure if Frontier and Oceans had those tho

Do I need to date them to go past Getting to Know 4?

>>713838327Yes. It stops at there if you have no interest in dating.
>>713838607Why can't you make it equal opportunity and have everyone in swimsuits instead of this... Honestly feels like humiliation rituals at this point
>>713838729That kinda sucks, I also did Matsuri's quest up until Getting to Know Matsuri 4 and her last quests ends up feeling unfinished, we had a festival but then nothing else happens
>>713838807Not that anon, right now I have only Clarice in a swimsuit as atonement for her sins.
>>713838910There's a lot of stuff that's flat out feels just unfortunate with this game. I feel like at least every villager, romanceable or no, should have had bonds up to a certain point and I feel like some bonds really needed to be wrapped up properly before the dating phase, but I also feel like for some the dating phase should've been longer.
We also should've had bonds for the children.

Quite frankly I'm more biased because my first two were soft gentle sweetheart and bright ball of energy.
I got kind of burnt out after beating the story. Having to wait a day just for a each conversation in a "date" gets annoying. Also even though it's automatic I don't care about the town building. There are too many villages and they're too big, in the old games I would go around the town every day. In this one, I'm ignoring huge parts of them because there's nothing there.

>>713856617Fertile teens > barron hags Yes, I know Margaret is 400 years old, but that's a teen in elf years.
>>713827559>Its all thanks to the portable mediumRadiata Stories, a PS2 game from 2005 (i.e. even before the first Rune Factory) had a fully realized town where every single one of the over a hundred NPCs had a fully realized schedule where they wander around town throughout the day and typically had unique things to say depending on the part of the day you approach them. Hell, the "eye-candy" or waifu type characters get extra special love compared to the rest because they change clothes come night time. After wearing work clothes/armor throughout the day, come evening, you'll see them into much more comfortable home clothes.
Pic related, girl wears tight fitting warrior-monk clothes throughout the day. In the morning she does temple duties and training. Come the afternoon, she literally runs around town chasing after her eccentric master. And evening, you see her put on some nerd glasses, a much more loose and comfy dress and just hang out in the streets, singing and basking the night away.
I don't think tri-ace was an AAA studio, but 20 years later and I haven't seen any other game where the town and NPCs in it had as much handcrafted life and personality as Radiata.
It's a real shame that even modern RF games can't manage the level of town simulation/immersion that Radiata had despite only having an iota of it's total cast size.

>>713869610Long Swords feel good since the first normal attack lasts long enough to follow up with an immediate charge attack, Short Swords and Dual Blades have to wait a bit for lesser damage. With the small window to capitalize on perfect dodges or stunned bosses, it adds up.
>>713869375I'm pretty sure we permanently solve Venti's problem with Rune Prana
>>713869610Two hander, for the same reason especially its charged hits
The others just feel two wimpy
>>713869610I like Talismans
>>713869809You just solved Venti's rune cancer with that.
The whole rune ecosystem and cycle is still kinda fucked.
Granted, Terrable waking early and cockblocking Fiersome from doing rune janny duty also contributed to everything going whack.
>>713869610I never bothered switching off short sword because I realized as soon as a I got Matsuri's sword that the god gifts were a million times stronger
>>713858598>>713863910These are weak compared to Shara.
>>713870258The cycle was fucked long before Terrable woke up
The cycle won't continue until Venti dies, but there's no actual NEED for the cycle to continue as long as Venti can still do her job
There may not even need to be a cycle at all, after all, the elven continent (apparently larger than azuma by the way) doesn't seem to have had a 'collapse' in a long, long time.
Otherwise, with how long elves live, it would be in living memory. Like one or two generations of elves back, which doesn't make much narrative sense.
>>713870541Does the horny lady not have any dialog for this or did just no one update this image in 500 years
>>713870642I don't think anybody updated it with her dialog.
>>713870583Adonea is apparently the progenitor continent according to the RF memoirs book. So the scale of time of the divine order or whatever there is probably much different compared to other places. Shit, they may actually be in charge of the entire world itself instead.
Also, another interesting point in the lore is that Livia and Radea were sealed by ancient earthmates, which may seem weird because unlike the literal scorched earth job of Fiersome, they were the actual rune jannies in charge of purifying and recycling runes. You'd think that Earthmates would let them do their job in peace since it seems like a crucial job that didn't really affect living beings. But no, the ancient Earthmates still turned them into fucking skeletons, only reawakening a few decades before the time of RF5.
Earthmates may not be the complete good guys the narrative sells them to be. Really wish RF6 would clear up the actual fucking lore of the games.
>>713870934Yeah, honestly the RF lore has always been a fucking mess
Dare I mention Oceans's random as fuck Arch Dragons that allegedly numbered in the hundreds and a legendary golem that literally never get brought up again?
>>713871070> random as fuck Arch DragonsLesser dragon species has always been a thing in the series (there were the fuckhuge farm dragons in RF5 too). So I can let that one go, but yeah you'd think the world ending golem would at least have a bigger role in the folklore or mythos of the world.
I want the devs to get spicy and let the MC be the elf who'll outlive most possible love interests for a change. Much like how Micah was the furry in the relationship for most parties.
>>713871070>>713871164I personally just thought of the golem as a historical pain in the ass that was decided to be better off forgotten. I imagine that the ancient dragons beat up that nigga and collectively went: "Yes, let's never speak of this piece of shit that contributed absolutely nothing to the world ever again."
The whole "ancient forgotten evil" trope isn't that rare in fantasy after all.
>>713871259I mean, we kinda technically are the dragon we've been waiting to fuck right?
>>713871527Nobody ever treats us like we are, so eh.
Ulalaka still angsts about us being a human despite the Woolby bond which implies we fucked Woolby over with a human lifespan if anything
>>713781213 (OP)>Go to bed>Wake up>Thread still hereAmazing.
>>713872072Not for long, it seems
>>713872072Sorry, bro. I was busy playing RF1 so I couldn't grace these threads with my posts
>24 hour thread
It's over, it's fucking over... Runebros, sayonara...
