Of course the pc version is going to run better and have better resolution and textures than the switch version. Unfortunately the art style and game is still absolute ass.
It does look better but it's still a step backwards from the Wii titles which is fricking unacceptable. The load times vary based on your hardware. Mine are never more than ~2 seconds. Frequently lower than that.
The graphics are early 2000's tier, only slightly better than pic related.
And that UI looks like it was designed by a team of mobile game developers in a Chinese sweatshop.
Because the devs for this one suck ass. It's obvious it's a dialog line that triggered at the wrong time, no need to build some conpiratorial narrative around it.
>First version of the game I downloaded wasn't working with controller >Try out the version that some anon posted in the last thread >Controller works
Cool! >But fricking anytime anything gets into examine range, my controller rumbles
There a way to disable that in the games settings that I missed, or am I just going to have to disable rumble on my controller?
>having a backlog >buying games to play later
this is literally theft from the developers. when a game goes on sale it is meant for you to play it then for a limited time at that price. starting to play it after it has returned to the full price should require you paying the difference.
Ive only played 1 and 4, but in both all options are autistic morons to some degree, so I dont get it. So I dont get the appeal of any of them unless you have a fetish for the mentally disabled.
It's a bunch of costumes
RF4 character pack (Deluxe Kit)
RF4 protagonists (RF4S save bonus)
RF1-3 protagonists (available as a bundle or separately)
RF Oceans/ToD protagonists (free)
RF4 swimsuits (sold separately, but one was a preorder bonus)
Each of the six swimsuit DLCs contains a "care package" with 9 orange juice, tomato seeds, recipe bread, and healing potions. That's what all those chests are.
How the frick are you supposed to know who's an elf and who's a dwarf? Also what's up with the animal and monster people. In 4 the guardians are all animal people changed from a monster, but then it seems like they were once human, so how come none of them comment on now being weird crossbreed things? You'd think they'd be a little confused or at least comment on turning into some half monsters animal person. And how the frick does Dolce even work? How come she gets to be normal looking?
>How the frick are you supposed to know who's an elf and who's a dwarf?
The ears homie open your eyes
Though I'm not entirely sure what's going on with the guardians either
I thought you mean telling either from a human tbh
But I guess you could tell because dwarves generally are blacksmithing autists or otherwise mention them
It's weird, even Amber has knife ears just like Dolce, but you can only tell if you look at her 3d model. It's strange how none of them comment on the changes since there are lines confirming that they're human. >How come she gets to be normal looking?
I bet at some point in development she was going to have doll joints leftover from being a guardian.
Because the worst girl in RF4 is head and shoulders above the best girls in RF5, because they made the genius move to make the only good girls unmarriable and leave the players with autistic spaghetti-spilling scraps
You can't, she married Lest on RF4 and now she's traveling the world because Lest is already dead and her children or grandchildren are all grown up. She belongs to Lest only.
and yes that's my headcanon and you don't have any proof this is not correct
I haven't read anywhere that Earthmates live more than a human. In fact I think either on RF3 or RF4 in a romantic event with either Daria or Margaret one of them asks the main character if Earthmates live long lives and they respond that they didn't knew. I doubt they do though, their lifespan is probably the same as a normal human.
Most people here don't have a problem with them either. It's just that there's a particularly vocal minority that uses this online space as their personal recruitment grounds and psy-op campaigns.
>vocal minority
please go have a nice day. I've played the first harvest moon to RF. No gay shit. You can always be friends with everyone.
Now with RF5 it assumes youre fricking gay for being friends with them which was not the case in the first RF games.
Its not psy-ops and if you're saying its psy-ops then you havent played the previous games. So go kys homosexual
>play as Alice because she's the cutest girl in RF5 >marry a girl because girls are cute >don't mind the guys hitting on Alice because that's normal because she's a cute girl
I win. I'll never play as Ares and have the homosexuals flirt with him.

Frick off. It doesn't even really have anything to do with homoshit, it's how poorly they implemented it at the expense of doing anything worthwhile like fixing the damn game. If it was like stardew where you had to be gay to see gay I wouldn't give a shit, but it's not. You hurt your cause by being annoying about this, but maybe that's your intent.
>If it was like stardew where you had to be gay to see gay I wouldn't give a shit, but it's not
??, As expected of a tortanic shitposter, you didn't even play the game, did you?
he's right though. The romance events with the bachelors happen to frequently in this game early on. And although technically you could pass them as "bro moments" that sucks for the experience because the first romantic events with bachelorettes are the same, they're just friendly events instead of more intimate moments.
Also this is an easy fix, you can have the game let you choose your sex and gender preference at the beginning of the game. That way you filter the events you don't want to see.

The point is, characters flirting with MC despite their gender was a thing in RF5 before gay marriage was added. This was a thing in RF4. This was a thing in the past. That's why this is one of the most moronic wave of seethe i've seen shitposters push for. One can easily out themselves as someone who didn't play this or any of the prequels if they complain so much about the lack of gender-specific dialogue

No it wasn't. Only 1 character was flirty in RF4 which was Leon. RF3 didn't had the female option so no dude acted flirty towards you, and the other one that had a female option which was ToD also didn't had bachelors acting flirty with you if you played as Aden.
Yeah it was you secondaries. Take RF4, there was little to no gender specific dialogue there which would often get people pointing out how Doug and Dylas always blushed near maleMC even though they would reject them if asked. The dialogue in RF4 was unilateral and devs didn't bother writing 2538 different dialogue lines directed to each of the MCs.
But don't run away from the goalpost: every thread shitposters make false complaints around their saying that RF5 made all characters irrevesibly gay and flirty after the playersexual marriage was added and therefore ruined the game. So, are you all implying that before this patch, there were tons of custom made lines tailored each MC gender? Being something like one for non flirty for same sex dialogue, and another for flirty opposite sex dialogue, and that the developers somehow deleted half of them and only left the flirty lines remaining? Lol this was never a thing you can just download the old build and see it for yourself, but of course you wouldn't. It's easier to just keep shitposting on Ganker

Both of them work for the MC regardless the gender because they both were tsundere type characters that admired the MC regardless of the gender.
The second paragraph I don't even know what you're trying to say, it reads like schizoposting. Obviously in the original RF5 in Japan romantic events were specific to each gender, like in the past games. Why would the developers need to erase these events now that they're open to both male and female? All they have to do is change some wording and that's it. Take your friggin meds.

Now you're backtracking from your own statements, i see. So Doug and Dylas are the exceptions and therefore do not count because of their personality types they will treat both female and male MCs equally.

Locked MC routes ≠ gender-specific dialogue
Why do you think it was so easy for no-effort mods to make it so that players can marry anyone? They didn't have to rewrite anything, just flip the pronoum and skin.
The exact same thing happened in RF5, but for some reason tortanic shitposters are still trying to recycle the part about how never writing over a thousand different lines for each sex ruined the game.

Personally Im not bothered by the NPC villagers using neutral pronouns. It would be better if the developers weren't lazy fricks and programmed a different experience for both genders, but for saving time they're not going to bother and I get that. That's not what I'm complaining though. What I'm complaining specifically is that every romantic option in this game is open from the beginning, and it's pretty hard to avoid them with characters you don't want them with because they're your same sex. And you don't even need to woo them that hard to activate the initial ones, most of them start appearing when they reach 2 hearts which is just talking to them.

You can literally just never say "I love you" though? Aren't these character events of the same nature as that of the other game, where more of them unlock the further you go in heart count, but don't go past a platonic relationship to a marriage route until you declare yourself to them?

why do you keep moving the fricking goalpost? I already told you I don't fricking want any romantic or flirty dialogue with dudes, which happen even before you tell them "I love you". The romantic events are all unlocked you mongoloid, that's my complaint. Fricking make them available only if you choose to make your character gay, if not, don't include romantic events with dudes. Its not that hard.

You're moronic. Screeching on Ganker won't make the developers add over a thousand alternative lines to just appease you who afraid of talking to dudes. Same with the prequels, the events you seethe about are just character events normally made to be seen for both MCs once friendship level gets past a threshold, but if you're afraid of turning gay by seeing them you might as well never talk to a male in any rune factory game ever lol.

You shilling for the game in Ganker is not gaining you any actual money either you homosexual. Also it's obvious you haven't played any of the past games. There were no "random events" with dudes in RF3, RF2 or RF1.
Also, part of my point is that usually in HM/SoS/RF games heart events always felt intimate even the initial ones. Because now we have this homosexualry the events tend to feel more souless because they have to make them neutral so they don't piss people off even more with them. This is a problem and I would argue it started with RF4, but it got exacerbated here.

You can't actually trigger any romantic dates with the men as a male character until you ask them out. The first three "dates" are friendship events, even the one where Martin and you spend a day at the sauna together. That was something players could see and do in the day one Japanese version even before gay marriage got added in.

why it's stupid? At the end of the day it's still criticism to Xsneed. Hell it wouldn't surprise me if it was all related. Why would they put less romantic events in the game? Even in the japanese version? We know the announcement to make the game gay happened even before the japanese initial release of the game of the game launched, so it's not unreasonable to think they probably scraped romantic events from the original version so it was easier to transition to the gay version.

When people talk about this shit in 4, they are overestimating how much there is by quite a lot. I've played the game a great deal, and I don't see where you're getting this from. Aside from maybe 3 lines in the whole game, the men don't flirt with you. And don't confuse sentimentality or embarrassment with romance lines either. The event where Dylas saves you from the playboy is almost certainly a bug and was meant to play for Frey.

I don't, but I do have a problem with english translators overstepping their boundaries and throwing their weight against foreign creative works for political and social ideological reasons
In RF5 they changed the dialogue of Eliza from how it usually was in RF4 "change appearance" to "change genders" and when you change it, Eliza gives you some bullcrap SJW confirming text that she supports your transition.
However when you try entering the girl area of the sauna you still can't, lmao so the game accidentally tells you that YWNBAW even when you change your appearance.
This will never not be funny to me. I imagine it will get patched eventually but for now I'd like to enjoy it, because it makes the "I support your decision!" line to seem mocking now.
God pioneers of olive town was so fricking bad. Why no one mentions that the devs fricked story of seasons up as well when they talk about how they falled from grace with RF5? Obviously the devs don't have it in them anymore to make good games.
>most people
Actually fricking hate homosexuals, trannies and pretty soon, israelites, and there's no amount of angsty shitposting you can do about it. It's the law of nature. Dilate, homosexual.
Most people here don't have a problem with them either. It's just that there's a particularly vocal minority that uses this online space as their personal recruitment grounds and psy-op campaigns.
honestly they did a poor job with it. i played the gay patch for Trio of Towns on 3DS, being a gayot myself. at the time i thought it was funny in a "fan patch jank" kind of way how everyone, male and female, seemed to IMMEDIATELY start hitting on you the moment you moved into the town. little did i know the actual implementation in a future title would be exactly the same, and it's not really funny anymore.
Nothing surprising about that. It's all fat greasy w*men with Inuyasha merch all over their rooms and moronic hispanics with Joker avatars eating this shit up. We talk a lot about japs having bad taste, but westerners consistently demonstrate they have far lower standards.
The problem with steam reviews is the people who hate the game aren't going to buy it. PC users get the game so late and are such sticklers about what they're playing they either pirate or know about a game's issues ahead of time and so avoid it. The real interesting thing is whether or not it'll sell decently.
4S runs fine on Switch so a lot of people just played it there, plus the Steam release was multiplat. That meant a lot of Steam users just stumbled into it, with some turned off by the graphic style. In contrast, 5 ran like shit on Switch and Steam is the only alternative. Anyone who didn't suffer through the Switch version has this as their only option to play it, leading to more owners and more reviews who view the game positively.
Game seems alright, but the dating choices seem pretty meh so far. I like the look of the wolf girl, not so sure about the rest. Elf girl is kind of cute in a b***h sort of way, will have to see how she develops. Hopefully the succubus will be fun. I'm just a tad salty they shot down the dragon route twice.
>For someone that really doesn't care much about romance.
You won't care for rune factory. Unlike harvest moon or stardew, it's a waifu sim first and foremost. If you don't care about waifus, it doesn't do anything else well enough to bother.
>deeper combat/dungeon system
You want RF4 then. RF5 basically copy pasted 4's crafting mechanics but even on hard mode RF5 is pathetically easy and nothing will challenge you to use it, and if you how it works from 4 you can become an unkillable murdering machine using a spoon as a weapon. Meanwhile in 4 if we weren't at least making some use of it you'd get your ass handed to you even on normal, it also had even harder modes for when you wanted to crazy with the crafting autism, spending in game years just to make a single perfect piece of gear

If you're looking for something comfy like a farming sim, but with combat and dungeons, you can try recettear. I wouldn't really say the combat or dungeons are better and there's no farming, but it's similar in that it's a laidback experience with those aspects. Or you could try something like sakuna or persona. Or just get rune factory. These games are unique in their attempt to balance laidback comfy with dungeons and combat.
If you really just want pure dungeons and combat, then that's very broad and there's loads of games that could scratch that itch all the way from enter the gungeon to darkest dungeon to zelda to noita. I'd just recommend looking up dungeon crawler on steam and seeing what you like.

it was anything but comfy due to the fricking deadline system
I enjoyed harvest moon, stardew and played RF4 until end game when it launched, I also like rpgs, the combat system stops being enjoyable when you’re stuck with mobile tier animations, graphics, movement and gameplay with repetitive and empty npc personalities. Had they stylized the game and improved the locomotion dynamics it’d be perfect but i can’t overlook how dated this game looks, I wish they’d improve on all of this.
I can’t say I liked it that much but there’s not really many games with this concept, I wouldn’t replay it without shit load of mods that address these issues
Playing 4 currently, why is the horse guy hitting on me? You guys said only 5 had homos. Just had some cut scene where he saves me from some playboy, who was also a homosexual apparently or extremely confused.
Is the crafting system the same?
by the way I'm playing RF4S right now and I wanna know something about merging accessories, I got a magic earrings with a heart pendant merged upon creation, Barret refers to the heart pendant about it so I'm good, I wanna fuse it with a happy ring, can I fuse that magic earring in the creation process of another accessory,. will the heart pendant effect also transfer? I tried doing it and Barret did mention the magic earring in how it was created, but I'm not sure if he should have referred to the heart pendant that's within the magic earring so I savescummed away, would that indicate the heart pendant effect was transferred, if Barret mentions the accessory that was already a fusion?
If anything they should make this fusion/inheritance system more clear and remove any RNG involved in RF5 or 6 if it wasn't done
Any fellow piratechads got a controller working with the game yet? I cant make mine work even if I play it as a non steam game through steam for steam input
The game uses an official controller layout through Steam, so rather than look for direct button inputs it looks for the ingame functions tied to those buttons. See if you can import the official configuration.
Don't complete the second dungeon before the first fishing event. Bring Forte with you to the 3rd dungeon. If you want to play the hardest difficulty look up a guide on crafting but if you aren't playing on the hardest don't look it up. Xiao Pai loves tomatoes so throw them at her every day.
Most character has missable unique dialogue when facing boss for the first time. So instead bringing the strongest allies, Its better to bring your favourite.
is the new rune factory good if you enjoyed the games on DS as a kid and still enjoy the farming sim genre? (stardew)
i wanna get it but it also looks moronic. is it worth picking up at all as a 30 yr old boomer?
Yes. The combat is bad. Like Ai are stupid and slow. I know in RF4 the Ai grow depend on character level, but its way too late. And by thay time RF5 difficulty is still easy.
Unless you are talking about farming part.
4 is not comfy any longer. Your house is at the center of the town and you live with a dragon and buttlers in a mansion instead somewhere isolated in your own house. People just enter your room at any time they want to, your room doesn't even have real doors. The town is also weirdly royal town looking with the fully plastered streets out of high grade stone. They obviously had no idea what they were doing in terms of comfyness.
Funny how seeing S-E's later coming Harvestella made me wonder if they could do it better. I personally wouldnt have minded other companies and stuff doing it if they can do it better
None of the romance in Harvest Moon, Rune Factory or Stardew Valley was ever good but it's amazing how much flavor that mechanic gives even if it's poorly executed.
I found the trailer of Harvestella funny, it begins with a female half very armored and the right half of her body is like sleeveless no armor, then it shows "created by Square enix", I fricking knew it already, you don't have to tell me twice, only you guys have this fricking awful character design. I don't know what kind of mental illness Squeenix """"""artists"""""" have, but their idea of "cool" looking characters comes across as trying too hard to look interesting, lame and moronic.
Are Rune Factory trannies still in denial about the fact that the action gameplay farming hybrid is garbage since having both makes each of those aspects completely half assed.
No, RF5 feels weird. If you want to know to what extent, I have a hint. If you fall from any height and perform an attack immediately after falling, you slide really far. It's very noticeable if you use a longsword.
For how low budget these games are, the ocean idea is/was probably for the best if they want to have exploring. Just have a boat you upgrade the speed/durability of with crafting instead of the Golem.
What a fall from grace. All the DS entries were overflowing with soul. Pic related was my sexual awakening, looked up porn of her on the dsi web browser and my brother's ipod touch. That was back when the only anime I saw was DBZ or Naruto. In hindsight it was kind of the beginning of my downward spiral.
Take me back
I had a crush on a blonde girl from school and I self-inserted us and got married, and also looked at her butt when she sat down in front of me and saw her underwear once.
One time they had a hypnotist come to school and he "convinced" her to twerk on stage and it was like the gods were smiling upon me that day. Permanent spank bank memory
That was at our graduation party in 2014. I was old enough then lmao
I did stalk her from 6th grade till college. Even now I check her twitter every so often because theres a picture of her in a bikini, and i imagine an alternate world where I asked her out and get to hold and kiss her. It makes me cum faster than porn

Like stalk them at their house? You fricking weirdo
I put like 200 hours in the 4th one, but I'm on the edge with this one; the colors looks very bright (could probably fix them in nvidia control panel) and the art direction/transition to 3D is questionable (I feel they put more effort in the opening sequence than everything else, or maybe they blew their budget on Matsuoka).
I don't mind if it's "more of the same", since I enjoyed going full autism with the 4th, but the other complaints make me consider if it's worth the price tag.
>one of the nigs who talks shit about this game because of the gayshit >decide to grab a pirated copy of the game >tfw unironically enjoying the game and cant stop playing it
Guys I'm so sorry. RF5 actually still have the sovl.
Not yet. I'll play it when I "finished" this game.
It's not awful or anything now that it actually runs, but it's just disappointing if you're coming from 4. I'm one of the guys that complains about it most but I'm still going to play it to completion because there's so few somewhat decent games in this niche.
If you're enjoying it then that's all that matters, don't let us stop you. But that doesn't mean it's immune to criticism, especially from fans who actually engage with it.
I guess so. Well, ignorance is a bliss I guess. I get to enjoy the game while other people can't help but to get focused on finding out the flaws of the game. And if RF4 is that good then much better. More fun HM for me to look forward to.
Wow, same here. Except I did play Stardew Valley on a whim and somehow managed to clock 140 hours in that one despite installing fast travel fast travel and bigger sprinkler mods. RF3 will always be the goat for me because of my wife Raven. Thinking about marrying the moron wolf girl in RF5, though.
I was excited to marry Fuuka until I married her. I hated it so much that I deleted my save and started over. She's just so damn childish and stupid and has no interesting traits. All she talks about are fish and shiny stones.
I didn't play the game but I know what he means. If a relationship doesn't significantly develop the character then what's the point?

I find this unreasonably funny because anon effectively got relationship baited the exact same way people do in real life. Relationship psychologists have an actual term for this shit that I can't remember but I know that the rule is to only ever date people who you can accept as is.

I'm only aware of this shit in passing from people who have actual expertise but there was something I was told that I liked which was that all you bring to a relationship is love, and you can't fix anyone if it would take more than that.
wow for real? Does she change after having kids? Im thinking of going for her in the 1st run but I have a save file ready to go for Scarlett or Ludmilla in case she sucks too much. They made her totally moronic.
Wow, actually kind of a turnoff. I'm only at the farming tutorial right now but so far Lucy seems kind of like a c**t and Priscilla is cute but a little boring.
The issue is that it looks worse than a Rune Factory game made for the Wii released 14 years prior to it, this is just incompetence, also the Switch hardware can't be used to blame it because there are better looking games for it
That's the general consensus shitposters, gayposters and e-girlposters aside. Better in 4 in some ways, but also worse in some areas just leaving a lot of people kind of disappointed, especially for those who waited almost a decade for the next installment.
Why do shills keep trying to deflect with "uh you just don't like it because you're HOMOPHOBIC" to avoid mentioning that the game is unfinished and a step down from the previous game in pretty much all departments?

I don't really have a stake in this but just to be fair and since I haven't played, from merely a glance it's looking like the "gay content" is just gender flipped dialogue.
So for example if you're a guy dating a guy you're getting the girls dialogue with him/her switched. Which also means this gay dialogue didn't exist originally and was added in translation?
Correct me if I'm wrong of course but from seeing this if you're worried about "gay" content then you should be fine since you legitimately would have to go out of your way to see it.
the gay dialogue was not added. It was made "gay" by having it applied to both boy and girl MC. It's not "new" added dialogue.
Also, for the most part yes, but there are romantic events, that can activate for any gender regardless if you care to see them or not, and it's almost impossible to avoid them. There are also bugs like this one
The gay content wasn't originally in the game and is a direct result of foreign meddling. This, combined with the evidence of Livia dlc being shelved, gives a [probably correct] impression of marvelous compromising the game they want to make in favour of foreign dollars.

If that means they will focus on the burger market the franchise is 100% dead, can't wait for the troony characters. Soon I will be able to post the YWNBARW pasta in every thread for every game in existence. Can't wait
Yet Livia and Radea specifically have romance dialogue in the files for male and female characters. Clearly they did work on it after they decided to make gay marriage a thing.
If they go through with it then by all means I'll retract my statement to just bash on xseed, but so far marvelous has really hurt my confidence in them.
In particular the performance of the switch release. Just because it runs fine on PC does NOT mean that it was in any way acceptable to release the switch version in the way it was. That doesn't change it, anyone who spent good money on that copy is still burned by it. It's completely unacceptable to be released in that state.
I have over 400 hours in the Switch version. It was clearly acceptable. People kept posting ancient Japanese webms of players falling through floors but no evidence was provided that it was still in the patched Global version. And the framerates only stuttered when you first loaded into an area. After a couple of seconds they would stabilize.
And load times? I'm 35. I'm used to load times. Maybe if you're ten and you need everything to be on an SSD you'd have a problem with it but I didn't.
I have the switch version too you fricking bootlicker but I also have a thing called standards. I played it last two days before release and using gloves is one of the most painful combat experiences I've ever had. If you're required to press an input half a second to a full second ahead of time for the impact so you just have the guess and mash buttons for combat then that is inexcusable. I'm sorry you have slave mentality but I don't. >And load times? I'm 35. I'm used to load times.
Good for you
Yeah the player needs to expliticly declare their love for x character if they want to enter a relationship, but some people lost in paranoid obsessions believe the developers have done a complete overhaul in their interactions so that it becomes more gay or something
Anyone figure out a way to enable the RF4S characters to appear without having to buy RF4S on steam? I already bought RF4S on switch and I don't want to buy it again.
I think the most depressing thing that happened was when I heard her talking to her friends about how to get an abortion. Not only is she condoning the sin of murder, but the fact that she knew so much implied she had already had sex, and been impregnated by someone else, just to kill the baby. That was when I stopped following her for a little bit. But now I tell myself maybe she was just joking
RF4 was okay. The story progression being locked in location-based events that the game doesn't tell you anything about is moronic. Cuting waifus for more dudes was also bad idea. It's probably the only RF where I didn't have to second guess who to marry.
RFF still has the best girls and the best gameplay if you patched out the moronic runie system with RF3 being a close second.
I'd rather have a remake of RF1 than a new entry at this point.
haha I didn't know the helmet would show up on a party member, my future wife and I are now matching because that was my 2nd best helm that I had spare
Weird that Amber got all the westoid rage when she's a merely pretending intellectual with a serious character arc compared to the functionally moronic dog.
Oh, plenty of people actually got mad about Fuuka. However, the reddit for the game banned people for complaining about Fuuka and said debates about her were a banned topic. They didn't want history to repeat itself.
They also delete any post criticizing/hating/demanding erasure of characters for their age or looks like pic. There seems to be a lot of hate for Cecil, much more than Kiel ever got despite looking even younger. Their problem with Fuuka is also less looks or age and more that she's "moronic" so she can't consent lol (Fuuka has the widest hips btw, made for breeding). Kohaku acted young and looked younger than everyone else. But for RF5 most people b***h that the milfs and furries can't be married and "all bachelorettes look the same and are too young = pedo game" (ESRB Teen rating btw)

Wait this is the succubus people were talking about? Goddamn it, thought there was a big tiddy succubus chick later on.
Glad that they fixed the performance for the PC version at least. I'll pirate it and try it on the Deck. What is tragic is that the DLC will never come out and shit sales haven't helped its odds.
Reminder that the can't have in the middle is a drunk wine aunt with anger problems that drinks in front of her kid, and would probably try to give you a black eye in front of the kids for accidentally reminding her of her dead husband
Just going by character designs, not awful. Two girly girls, two tomboys and a dommy mommy succubus.
Eyepatch lady looks like the only loss, since succubus beats the mature ladies at their own game.
If it meets their weapon type you should give them stronger ones of that type.
IE Clorica uses spears so give her better spears. Giving them other types is ineffective.
They never once mentioned anything about post launch DLC, but since there's unused files labeled DLC must mean it was definitely planned and the cancelled it because they hate dragonfrickers that much. Nevermind that there's nothing else that comes with romancing a character like events and cutscenes.
Yet Livia and Radea specifically have romance dialogue in the files for male and female characters. Clearly they did work on it after they decided to make gay marriage a thing.
It's literally right here, these voice lines were labeled as DLC
Same shit as RF5, garbage performance, less content than the games before it, but mindless consumers ate up that shit anyway and it's the best selling game in the series.
Going to wait a bit for it to drop in price and see what kind of mods it gets. I wish there was a way to get my unmodded switch's save to my PC because apparently you can use it
Rune Factory 4 is one of the best farming sim games ever made. The only thing Stardew Valley has over it is that it has multiplayer. Everything else is better in RF4.
I've never played stardew valley but everyone says RF farming, at least in 4, has more depth to it, but the combat and crafting is definitely better, there's so much shit you can do with crafting, most of which are hidden mechanics you have to figure out on your own or look it up
they're quite different, when it comes to crops for example SV follows that Harvest Moon model where each season has its own crops and most of them just get obliterated upon a season change, in RF4 there are more variables involved, they don't disappear but there are seasons where specific crops grow faster and in others it's slower, and they don't magically die upon a season change, which is nice, there are a lot of little details about how soil works, not only being able to speed it up but there are items that boost the quality of items, which is more expanded than on SV
I think the item quality scaling from RF4/Story of Seasons should really be copied by SV. Most items have 10 levels of quality, and if you use a level 10 turnip to make a salad, it will be sold for much more than one made with a lv 1 turnip, also its bufs will be greatly expanded as well. You can get higher level seeds by using a scythe on grown crops. This is something that has always bothered me in SV, if you use artifact quality base mats for food, it makes no difference at all to the end product
RF4 is way more of an action RPG, with tons of skills that gradually increase upon using, shitloads of them, walking is considered a skill, there are multiple weapon types, elemental magic, and each one of the skills increases certain things, HP/Rune Points (the energy equivalent of the game) and some combat stat like leveling shortsword increases your strength stat
There's a whole lot of shit to do with crafting, you can craft tons of shit, and you can stack many buffs by using monster drops, and you can also increment the recipes yourself with those buff items. There's a whole lot of stuff you can do that is kinda cryptic.
When it comes to barns for example you can tame all monsters you find in the game, and some of them give those crafting materials that give buffs when in a barn, not all of them do
The girls are the last thing I b***h about because I'm a small tit enjoyer. The performance issues and bland environments piss me off however. Image is from Rune Factory Frontier. How the frick are we regressing?
Texture resolution is a thing. Also marvelous could only go far with these low-res origami models until people started to notice how basic the character look closely. It's better to try out new tools, even if they are clumsily used at first, than to stick forever to the same ones
I guess so. Just wanted to point out that it would be foolish to expect some barely ressurected devs to manage giving their switch game a noticeable quality bump
In rune factory 4, can you combine an accessory you already combined with another one and get 2 effects from it?
I don't have a way to craft heart pendants now and I combined that into another accessory but now I can craft Happy rings, can I use that combined heart pendant + other acc with a happy ring to get both effects?
Is it me or does that actually look better than the Switch version? I feel like it was more blurry.
How are the FPS and load times?
The PC version has higher resolution textures, but the art direction is still shit either way.
Obviously, but better is better I guess.
a polished turd is still a turd.
>art direction
This. Its why Frontier looks better even though it doesn't have high rez textures and is more than 10 years old.
Of course the pc version is going to run better and have better resolution and textures than the switch version. Unfortunately the art style and game is still absolute ass.
It does look better but it's still a step backwards from the Wii titles which is fricking unacceptable. The load times vary based on your hardware. Mine are never more than ~2 seconds. Frequently lower than that.
The switch version has a resolution dropping feature option for low fps
It's why the game looks blurry like 100% of the time on switch
The barren landscapes are higher resolution.
That's it. Still looks like shit.
Imagine paying 50 dollars for this
thats why im currently torrenting it 🙂

u high?
Yeah no I'm not playing it until the homosexualry is removed and we have the original game
Your franchise caved in for homos. Sorry not sorry
I'd buy it for 19.99
I think the girl MC is cute.
The graphics are early 2000's tier, only slightly better than pic related.
And that UI looks like it was designed by a team of mobile game developers in a Chinese sweatshop.
I love my pretty wife, Dolce! I want to be with her forever and ever!
Nobody cares Pico.
Pico can't use computers.
Is the mod to remove gays already released?
I doubt someone would bother considering you have to go out of your way to get the gay content.
homosexualry should be removed at every single possible chance
also turn all the girls into almost naked hebes
No you don't.
That's a bug.
That "bug" has been around since the release Switch version, why wasn't it fixed if it wasn't intentional?
Because the devs for this one suck ass. It's obvious it's a dialog line that triggered at the wrong time, no need to build some conpiratorial narrative around it.
This is why you play like real life. Talk to no one except who you want to bang.
Friends aren't real.
So uh what's the point of the dragon? is it just permanent season field from rf4?
The dragon farms are just more spaces for you to do your farming + you can automate them with your monsters.
There's no seasonal farms in RF5.
>First version of the game I downloaded wasn't working with controller

There a way to disable that in the games settings that I missed, or am I just going to have to disable rumble on my controller?

Controller fixs
buy it on steam
No you buy it for me
>Pay for something you can get for free, goy!
Sometimes then controller doesn’t work if you import the pirated copy into steam as. 3rd party app it’ll work like you would a gog game
>anyway to disable rumble?
Open your controller and remove the motor. Unironically.
nice move to release this game after the sale when i now have like 10 games in my backlog
dumb b***hes
>having a backlog
>buying games to play later
this is literally theft from the developers. when a game goes on sale it is meant for you to play it then for a limited time at that price. starting to play it after it has returned to the full price should require you paying the difference.
They still haven't topped RF1/F girls.
Ive only played 1 and 4, but in both all options are autistic morons to some degree, so I dont get it. So I dont get the appeal of any of them unless you have a fetish for the mentally disabled.
anette was pretty normal.
Raven was a pretty normal shy lonely girl
Raven wasn't waifu-able, idiot.
Nice Wii game but it's 2022 already
>nice wii game
RF5 accepts your compliment.
>wii game
frick man. Stop saying its a wii game. The fricking WII games are much better than this crap
what are they?
Each thing of DLC comes with some extra items. Those chests are those items.
Wait how much DLC is there? I thought it was just the delux edition or whatever.
It's a bunch of costumes
RF4 character pack (Deluxe Kit)
RF4 protagonists (RF4S save bonus)
RF1-3 protagonists (available as a bundle or separately)
RF Oceans/ToD protagonists (free)
RF4 swimsuits (sold separately, but one was a preorder bonus)
Each of the six swimsuit DLCs contains a "care package" with 9 orange juice, tomato seeds, recipe bread, and healing potions. That's what all those chests are.
LET ME MARRY THIS GIRL AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Play 4 then dummy
Why would you want to marry the worst girl in rf4?
How the frick are you supposed to know who's an elf and who's a dwarf? Also what's up with the animal and monster people. In 4 the guardians are all animal people changed from a monster, but then it seems like they were once human, so how come none of them comment on now being weird crossbreed things? You'd think they'd be a little confused or at least comment on turning into some half monsters animal person. And how the frick does Dolce even work? How come she gets to be normal looking?
>How the frick are you supposed to know who's an elf and who's a dwarf?
The ears homie open your eyes
Though I'm not entirely sure what's going on with the guardians either
But the dwarves have pointy ears too, and they're not even short. They literally just look like elves.
I thought you mean telling either from a human tbh
But I guess you could tell because dwarves generally are blacksmithing autists or otherwise mention them
It's weird, even Amber has knife ears just like Dolce, but you can only tell if you look at her 3d model. It's strange how none of them comment on the changes since there are lines confirming that they're human.
>How come she gets to be normal looking?
I bet at some point in development she was going to have doll joints leftover from being a guardian.
I think being trapped for however long they extended Venti’s life for as a feral animal gave them enough to get over their new animal parts
Dolce was weird before sealing, she sees ghosts nobody does. Can also hear the mailbox speaking. She doesn't interact, though.
Because the worst girl in RF4 is head and shoulders above the best girls in RF5, because they made the genius move to make the only good girls unmarriable and leave the players with autistic spaghetti-spilling scraps
What does she smell like?
margaret is actually the romantic ideal.
is Raven in here?
You can't, she married Lest on RF4 and now she's traveling the world because Lest is already dead and her children or grandchildren are all grown up. She belongs to Lest only.
and yes that's my headcanon and you don't have any proof this is not correct
>consorting with elves
Disgusting
You have it backwards. Lest/Frey are literally demigod tier Earthmates, they’ll outlive everyone but Venti.
Actually that’s a good question now, what is the level cap in RF5? Lest/Frey could reach 5000.
I haven't read anywhere that Earthmates live more than a human. In fact I think either on RF3 or RF4 in a romantic event with either Daria or Margaret one of them asks the main character if Earthmates live long lives and they respond that they didn't knew. I doubt they do though, their lifespan is probably the same as a normal human.
If you married her in 4 then yeah that probably is canon
I feel like they choose these guest characters based on how little fans would care if they were still single.
Nah she actually married to Lest in rf5 whether or not you married her in your rf4s save file
How is "U-Um" better than "btw"
think i might pick this up tomorrow, hows the gameplay?
>90% positive reviews on steam
game must be good
Yes most people don't have a problem with homosexuals outside of this shithole
Most people here don't have a problem with them either. It's just that there's a particularly vocal minority that uses this online space as their personal recruitment grounds and psy-op campaigns.
>vocal minority
please go have a nice day. I've played the first harvest moon to RF. No gay shit. You can always be friends with everyone.
Now with RF5 it assumes youre fricking gay for being friends with them which was not the case in the first RF games.
Its not psy-ops and if you're saying its psy-ops then you havent played the previous games. So go kys homosexual
>vocal minority that uses this online space as their personal recruitment grounds and psy-op campaigns.
/lgbt/?
>play as Alice because she's the cutest girl in RF5
>marry a girl because girls are cute
>don't mind the guys hitting on Alice because that's normal because she's a cute girl
I win. I'll never play as Ares and have the homosexuals flirt with him.
Objective 200iq approach
You will never be a real woman
First time I'm gonna play fem in rune factory, for this exact reason
Frick off. It doesn't even really have anything to do with homoshit, it's how poorly they implemented it at the expense of doing anything worthwhile like fixing the damn game. If it was like stardew where you had to be gay to see gay I wouldn't give a shit, but it's not. You hurt your cause by being annoying about this, but maybe that's your intent.
>If it was like stardew where you had to be gay to see gay I wouldn't give a shit, but it's not
??, As expected of a tortanic shitposter, you didn't even play the game, did you?
fix your game xsneed
he's right though. The romance events with the bachelors happen to frequently in this game early on. And although technically you could pass them as "bro moments" that sucks for the experience because the first romantic events with bachelorettes are the same, they're just friendly events instead of more intimate moments.
Also this is an easy fix, you can have the game let you choose your sex and gender preference at the beginning of the game. That way you filter the events you don't want to see.
>The romance events with the bachelors happen to frequently in this game early on. And although technically you could pass them as "bro moments" that sucks for the experience because the first romantic events with bachelorettes are the same, they're just friendly events instead of more intimate moments.
The point is, characters flirting with MC despite their gender was a thing in RF5 before gay marriage was added. This was a thing in RF4. This was a thing in the past. That's why this is one of the most moronic wave of seethe i've seen shitposters push for. One can easily out themselves as someone who didn't play this or any of the prequels if they complain so much about the lack of gender-specific dialogue
No it wasn't you troony
Yeah it was you secondaries. Take RF4, there was little to no gender specific dialogue there which would often get people pointing out how Doug and Dylas always blushed near maleMC even though they would reject them if asked. The dialogue in RF4 was unilateral and devs didn't bother writing 2538 different dialogue lines directed to each of the MCs.
But don't run away from the goalpost: every thread shitposters make false complaints around their saying that RF5 made all characters irrevesibly gay and flirty after the playersexual marriage was added and therefore ruined the game. So, are you all implying that before this patch, there were tons of custom made lines tailored each MC gender? Being something like one for non flirty for same sex dialogue, and another for flirty opposite sex dialogue, and that the developers somehow deleted half of them and only left the flirty lines remaining? Lol this was never a thing you can just download the old build and see it for yourself, but of course you wouldn't. It's easier to just keep shitposting on Ganker
fix the game xsneed
You have no leg to stand on either
Finally, I was waiting for the shills to talk about these pathetics numbers.
Fix the game shill, PC saved the framerate of your pathetic product
>PC saved the framerate of your pathetic product
Did it? I still get frame drops now and then on a beefy rig and the game in general has some stuttering problems.
There is no reason to play it on the Switch now
Thoughts and prayers for your PC
>Take RF4, there was little to no gender specific dialogue there which would often get people pointing out how Doug and Dylas always blushed near maleMC even though they would reject them if asked. The dialogue in RF4 was unilateral and devs didn't bother writing 2538 different dialogue lines directed to each of the MCs.
Both of them work for the MC regardless the gender because they both were tsundere type characters that admired the MC regardless of the gender.
The second paragraph I don't even know what you're trying to say, it reads like schizoposting. Obviously in the original RF5 in Japan romantic events were specific to each gender, like in the past games. Why would the developers need to erase these events now that they're open to both male and female? All they have to do is change some wording and that's it. Take your friggin meds.
Now you're backtracking from your own statements, i see. So Doug and Dylas are the exceptions and therefore do not count because of their personality types they will treat both female and male MCs equally. Well, what do you say about the rest of the NPCs who do the same thing? There was never any gender specific dialogue in RF4 (or RF5)
Yes they were you moron. The romantic events for Frey were different than those from Lest. You couldn't be a homosexual in RF4, so obviously there was unique dialogue options for both genders.
Locked MC routes ≠ gender-specific dialogue
Why do you think it was so easy for no-effort mods to make it so that players can marry anyone? They didn't have to rewrite anything, just flip the pronoum and skin.
The exact same thing happened in RF5, but for some reason tortanic shitposters are still trying to recycle the part about how never writing over a thousand different lines for each sex ruined the game.
It was shitty in 4 though, I don't appreciate dylas calling me cute and we did complain about it
I also dislike doug blushing as a reaction to anything my malemc did, but i'm also perplexed to how hypocritical some are acting with the same design decisions in the sequel
In 4 it was a result of laziness because no one was actually gay so it comes off as an amusing little mistake
in 5 it seems intentional because now they are actually gay, even if it didn't start out like that, but that also means marvelous had no intention of fixing that little detail in the first place
They're the same problem but different circumstances, and yes that makes a difference
>They didn't have to rewrite anything
I'm sure they did, because there's a lot of references to your sex. Have you ever done Doug's marriage event? It would be absolutely ridiculous playing as the male MC. It would need to be totally rewritten to work.
Personally Im not bothered by the NPC villagers using neutral pronouns. It would be better if the developers weren't lazy fricks and programmed a different experience for both genders, but for saving time they're not going to bother and I get that. That's not what I'm complaining though. What I'm complaining specifically is that every romantic option in this game is open from the beginning, and it's pretty hard to avoid them with characters you don't want them with because they're your same sex. And you don't even need to woo them that hard to activate the initial ones, most of them start appearing when they reach 2 hearts which is just talking to them.
You can literally just never say "I love you" though? Aren't these character events of the same nature as that of the other game, where more of them unlock the further you go in heart count, but don't go past a platonic relationship to a marriage route until you declare yourself to them?
why do you keep moving the fricking goalpost? I already told you I don't fricking want any romantic or flirty dialogue with dudes, which happen even before you tell them "I love you". The romantic events are all unlocked you mongoloid, that's my complaint. Fricking make them available only if you choose to make your character gay, if not, don't include romantic events with dudes. Its not that hard.
You're moronic. Screeching on Ganker won't make the developers add over a thousand alternative lines to just appease you who afraid of talking to dudes. Same with the prequels, the events you seethe about are just character events normally made to be seen for both MCs once friendship level gets past a threshold, but if you're afraid of turning gay by seeing them you might as well never talk to a male in any rune factory game ever lol.
You shilling for the game in Ganker is not gaining you any actual money either you homosexual. Also it's obvious you haven't played any of the past games. There were no "random events" with dudes in RF3, RF2 or RF1.
Also, part of my point is that usually in HM/SoS/RF games heart events always felt intimate even the initial ones. Because now we have this homosexualry the events tend to feel more souless because they have to make them neutral so they don't piss people off even more with them. This is a problem and I would argue it started with RF4, but it got exacerbated here.
You can't actually trigger any romantic dates with the men as a male character until you ask them out. The first three "dates" are friendship events, even the one where Martin and you spend a day at the sauna together. That was something players could see and do in the day one Japanese version even before gay marriage got added in.
Wait a second, before the game was patched for the gays, what events were locked by gender then? I feel you're full of shit shill-kun
There are a grand total of ZERO romantic events before you ask characters out. For male characters and female characters. Those are all friendship events.
and don't you feel that's an unwelcome change? In RF4 you still had some romantic interactions with the bachelorettes before you started dating.
Sure. It's bad. XSEED did a bad job. But idiots complaining that XSEED made all of those events super gay when even Japanese players could experience them at launch pre-patch is just stupid.
>the shill is still feigning stupidity
How low can you go? Are you even paid to post this?
I'm only paid to frick your mom but I took one look at her and chose not to.
In only a few posts i already ousted two shills to admit they're being being paid kek. I wonder how many others are still trying to appear undercover itt.
I'm the only Black person replying to you. You're not popular my man.
why it's stupid? At the end of the day it's still criticism to Xsneed. Hell it wouldn't surprise me if it was all related. Why would they put less romantic events in the game? Even in the japanese version? We know the announcement to make the game gay happened even before the japanese initial release of the game of the game launched, so it's not unreasonable to think they probably scraped romantic events from the original version so it was easier to transition to the gay version.
And you had those same interactions if you played as a girl, because the lines for boy and girl were the same. So is RF4 in reality MORE gay, because girls get blushy with girls too? Or are you just an autistic moron complaining about nothing?
You're a troony so obviously you're unable to realize why everyone hated this gayshit
XSNEED literally added extra events taken straight from the romance route to the dude protagonist interactions so that it would be more streamlined for him to date homosexuals. The homosexual detective literally calls you his boyfriend before you even begin dating
. Don't bother replying to shills
>There was never any gender specific dialogue in RF4
Yes there is.
>Doug and Dylas always blushed near maleMC even though they would reject them if asked
When people talk about this shit in 4, they are overestimating how much there is by quite a lot. I've played the game a great deal, and I don't see where you're getting this from. Aside from maybe 3 lines in the whole game, the men don't flirt with you. And don't confuse sentimentality or embarrassment with romance lines either. The event where Dylas saves you from the playboy is almost certainly a bug and was meant to play for Frey.
>The point is, characters flirting with MC despite their gender was a thing in RF5 before gay marriage was added. This was a thing in RF4. This was a thing in the past.
No it wasn't. Only 1 character was flirty in RF4 which was Leon. RF3 didn't had the female option so no dude acted flirty towards you, and the other one that had a female option which was ToD also didn't had bachelors acting flirty with you if you played as Aden.
I don't, but I do have a problem with english translators overstepping their boundaries and throwing their weight against foreign creative works for political and social ideological reasons
They got burned at the end.
In RF5 they changed the dialogue of Eliza from how it usually was in RF4 "change appearance" to "change genders" and when you change it, Eliza gives you some bullcrap SJW confirming text that she supports your transition.
However when you try entering the girl area of the sauna you still can't, lmao so the game accidentally tells you that YWNBAW even when you change your appearance.
This will never not be funny to me. I imagine it will get patched eventually but for now I'd like to enjoy it, because it makes the "I support your decision!" line to seem mocking now.
Wait a second... I thought this game didn't feature 2D portraits any longer? Was this patched after release?
I think the only time they used 3D models instead of portraits was Tides/Oceans.
Why would you think that?
might be thinking of pioneers of olive town
God pioneers of olive town was so fricking bad. Why no one mentions that the devs fricked story of seasons up as well when they talk about how they falled from grace with RF5? Obviously the devs don't have it in them anymore to make good games.
Need a Murakumo version of the bathroom guard
>most people
Actually fricking hate homosexuals, trannies and pretty soon, israelites, and there's no amount of angsty shitposting you can do about it. It's the law of nature. Dilate, homosexual.
SHUT
IT
DOWN
what the frick happened
honestly they did a poor job with it. i played the gay patch for Trio of Towns on 3DS, being a gayot myself. at the time i thought it was funny in a "fan patch jank" kind of way how everyone, male and female, seemed to IMMEDIATELY start hitting on you the moment you moved into the town. little did i know the actual implementation in a future title would be exactly the same, and it's not really funny anymore.
Everytime I see people shit on a game here in threads by a few people yet its praised elsewhere that just encourages me to play that game
Nothing surprising about that. It's all fat greasy w*men with Inuyasha merch all over their rooms and moronic hispanics with Joker avatars eating this shit up. We talk a lot about japs having bad taste, but westerners consistently demonstrate they have far lower standards.
The problem with steam reviews is the people who hate the game aren't going to buy it. PC users get the game so late and are such sticklers about what they're playing they either pirate or know about a game's issues ahead of time and so avoid it. The real interesting thing is whether or not it'll sell decently.
>has more positive reviews than RF4S
4S runs fine on Switch so a lot of people just played it there, plus the Steam release was multiplat. That meant a lot of Steam users just stumbled into it, with some turned off by the graphic style. In contrast, 5 ran like shit on Switch and Steam is the only alternative. Anyone who didn't suffer through the Switch version has this as their only option to play it, leading to more owners and more reviews who view the game positively.
The only people that would spend money on this game knowing what it is are people that were going to give it good feedback either way.
only the biggest marvelous wienermonglers bought this game. it's not worth pissing away money just to give it a negative review
Is it worth a pirate? Last RF I played was iirc 3 on DS
Just play 4.
yeah it's worth to pirate
Game seems alright, but the dating choices seem pretty meh so far. I like the look of the wolf girl, not so sure about the rest. Elf girl is kind of cute in a b***h sort of way, will have to see how she develops. Hopefully the succubus will be fun. I'm just a tad salty they shot down the dragon route twice.
How is this game compared to Stardew and Harvest Moon?
For someone that really doesn't care much about romance.
>For someone that really doesn't care much about romance.
You won't care for rune factory. Unlike harvest moon or stardew, it's a waifu sim first and foremost. If you don't care about waifus, it doesn't do anything else well enough to bother.
Sad.
I expected it would be a harvest moon/stardew with a more rpg approach and deeper combat/dungeon system
It is
>deeper combat/dungeon system
You want RF4 then. RF5 basically copy pasted 4's crafting mechanics but even on hard mode RF5 is pathetically easy and nothing will challenge you to use it, and if you how it works from 4 you can become an unkillable murdering machine using a spoon as a weapon. Meanwhile in 4 if we weren't at least making some use of it you'd get your ass handed to you even on normal, it also had even harder modes for when you wanted to crazy with the crafting autism, spending in game years just to make a single perfect piece of gear
It is, but there's a lot of better games with deeper combat and dungeon systems. Unless you really want the kind of janky and subpar farming.
Better games such as?
Are you the anon I was responding to? Any above average game with dungeons and combat is going to be better than what you can find in rune factory.
Yes, I'm the one you answered.
And my question is legit, I'm trying to find something like that. The game can have marriage and farming, but a deeper combat/rpg system would be my focus.
If you're looking for something comfy like a farming sim, but with combat and dungeons, you can try recettear. I wouldn't really say the combat or dungeons are better and there's no farming, but it's similar in that it's a laidback experience with those aspects. Or you could try something like sakuna or persona. Or just get rune factory. These games are unique in their attempt to balance laidback comfy with dungeons and combat.
If you really just want pure dungeons and combat, then that's very broad and there's loads of games that could scratch that itch all the way from enter the gungeon to darkest dungeon to zelda to noita. I'd just recommend looking up dungeon crawler on steam and seeing what you like.
>tfw literally completed all of it
My favorite raw dungeon crawler is etrian odyssey. Highly recommend emulating them if you haven't played them already.
would you recommend 1-3? because i played 4 til nexus. yeah i was neet for like a year so played ALOT.
3 is my personal favorite, so yes.
>recettear
it was anything but comfy due to the fricking deadline system
>kind of janky and subpar farming
but RF has the deepest and most complex farming mechanics in the entire genre
bumpan, im curious too. i need to scratch that itch
I enjoyed harvest moon, stardew and played RF4 until end game when it launched, I also like rpgs, the combat system stops being enjoyable when you’re stuck with mobile tier animations, graphics, movement and gameplay with repetitive and empty npc personalities. Had they stylized the game and improved the locomotion dynamics it’d be perfect but i can’t overlook how dated this game looks, I wish they’d improve on all of this.
I can’t say I liked it that much but there’s not really many games with this concept, I wouldn’t replay it without shit load of mods that address these issues
RF is generally better, but the games still have their issues
Except 4. That's the peak of the genre, along with Sakuna.
Playing 4 currently, why is the horse guy hitting on me? You guys said only 5 had homos. Just had some cut scene where he saves me from some playboy, who was also a homosexual apparently or extremely confused.
Horse guy canonically hates homosexuals, homosexual.
No he doesn't, fox does.
He is from an ancient culture though, I'm sure he can be reeducated.
they were too lazy to make gender specific dialogue so guys will flirt with you even though you cant gay them back.
The RF4 protagonist looks like a cute girl
5 or 4s? got some moni to dump
4S no question. It is a very good game. Unfortunately they just didn't try when making 5.
Is the crafting system the same?
by the way I'm playing RF4S right now and I wanna know something about merging accessories, I got a magic earrings with a heart pendant merged upon creation, Barret refers to the heart pendant about it so I'm good, I wanna fuse it with a happy ring, can I fuse that magic earring in the creation process of another accessory,. will the heart pendant effect also transfer? I tried doing it and Barret did mention the magic earring in how it was created, but I'm not sure if he should have referred to the heart pendant that's within the magic earring so I savescummed away, would that indicate the heart pendant effect was transferred, if Barret mentions the accessory that was already a fusion?
If anything they should make this fusion/inheritance system more clear and remove any RNG involved in RF5 or 6 if it wasn't done
Any fellow piratechads got a controller working with the game yet? I cant make mine work even if I play it as a non steam game through steam for steam input
The game uses an official controller layout through Steam, so rather than look for direct button inputs it looks for the ingame functions tied to those buttons. See if you can import the official configuration.
>chad
>wasting hours of your time trying to get a pirated game working instead of just buying it
Frick off xsneed I'm not giving you a single cent for your gayged up version of RF5
there's a controller fix on the ruskies forum
try GloSC's controller emulation, and set the non-steam games name to the store ID to get download user controller binds
>download rf4
>Within 5 minutes there's a cutscenes of an ugly Chinese girl sitting on my face
>Uninstall the game
gay
I just downloaded rf4, anything I need to know before I start?
Don't complete the second dungeon before the first fishing event. Bring Forte with you to the 3rd dungeon. If you want to play the hardest difficulty look up a guide on crafting but if you aren't playing on the hardest don't look it up. Xiao Pai loves tomatoes so throw them at her every day.
Most character has missable unique dialogue when facing boss for the first time. So instead bringing the strongest allies, Its better to bring your favourite.
If the devs add Livia DLC i'll buy it.
Not even worth pirating otherwise.
Does this game have slow input delay like Friends of Mineral Town? Does it also have shit KB+M support?
It has proper KB+M support. All the menus are clickable.
Can you rebind keys?
Daily reminder the succubi will cuck you. It's in their nature, that's literally what they'll do.
the least sexy succubus I've ever seen in vidya
I like to watch though
>picking used goods in the first place
Couldn't be me
Actually, she's so loyal that her cheating dialogue implies that she's fine being the one cucked as long as she knows about it
is the new rune factory good if you enjoyed the games on DS as a kid and still enjoy the farming sim genre? (stardew)
i wanna get it but it also looks moronic. is it worth picking up at all as a 30 yr old boomer?
>looks moronic
>enjoyed SV
????
Is there anything in these valuable?
nah just shitton of orange juices
Will there be mods at all?
probably, just don't expect anything absolutely game changing. Probably fixes to some of the dialogue, I would like that.
Not buying it
How well optimized is the game? The recommended requirements list the 1660 Ti. Would a 1060 manage to run it maxed out?
wher are the nuns
Having sexual thoughts about nuns is a cardinal sin.
she's just a nurse though
>wanting nuns
How are the load times compared to the Switch version? I'd like to buy it portable but I've heard bad things about the load times.
PC load times are an order of magnitude faster than Switch. It's game changing. Screen transitions aren't a nightmare anymore.
Thanks anon, I guess I'll pick it up on PC then. Wish my Steam Deck would arrive soon.
Would I feel disappointed about the gameplay considering I spent the past few weeks playing faster paced ARPGs?
Yes. The combat is bad. Like Ai are stupid and slow. I know in RF4 the Ai grow depend on character level, but its way too late. And by thay time RF5 difficulty is still easy.
Unless you are talking about farming part.
3 and 4 are fine if you ask me. Not fast or anything, but there's some depth with the skills. 5 kinda threw that out the window.
4 is not comfy any longer. Your house is at the center of the town and you live with a dragon and buttlers in a mansion instead somewhere isolated in your own house. People just enter your room at any time they want to, your room doesn't even have real doors. The town is also weirdly royal town looking with the fully plastered streets out of high grade stone. They obviously had no idea what they were doing in terms of comfyness.
The dragon and the butlers are going to listen to my Chinese wife doing really shitty dirty talk during sex and they are going to like it
>Anybody can hear and just walk through while I'm railing Amber's dicky because there are no doors
Venti may want to reconsider some things
Funny how seeing S-E's later coming Harvestella made me wonder if they could do it better. I personally wouldnt have minded other companies and stuff doing it if they can do it better
Harvestella looks interesting but the no romance/marriage thing is a drag
None of the romance in Harvest Moon, Rune Factory or Stardew Valley was ever good but it's amazing how much flavor that mechanic gives even if it's poorly executed.
I'm unironically hyped for the farming part of Harvestella, I just want to farm turnips and be comfy since RF5 isn't worth a pirate for me
I found the trailer of Harvestella funny, it begins with a female half very armored and the right half of her body is like sleeveless no armor, then it shows "created by Square enix", I fricking knew it already, you don't have to tell me twice, only you guys have this fricking awful character design. I don't know what kind of mental illness Squeenix """"""artists"""""" have, but their idea of "cool" looking characters comes across as trying too hard to look interesting, lame and moronic.
Are Rune Factory trannies still in denial about the fact that the action gameplay farming hybrid is garbage since having both makes each of those aspects completely half assed.
English or JP voices?
Are the English voices a hate crime like most dubs?
Japanese unless you really want that extra voiceline they added
Pirated rf5 and rf4s
Where do I put my save file so rf5 detects rf4s for the two guest characters?
why is the tomboy so cute?
Quick question:
Can you make your child fight for you in rf5?
I know you can in 4
Bumping this thread because i still need to know whether you can make your child fight for you or not.
Holy why the frick does the game feel so floaty? It feels so weird when playing around my farm? It it just me?
No, RF5 feels weird. If you want to know to what extent, I have a hint. If you fall from any height and perform an attack immediately after falling, you slide really far. It's very noticeable if you use a longsword.
If Oceans had Frontiers farming it would be the perfect formula for console RF.
I don't know. The wind waker exploration wasn't that great either. I rather have a bigger world than a tiny island.
For how low budget these games are, the ocean idea is/was probably for the best if they want to have exploring. Just have a boat you upgrade the speed/durability of with crafting instead of the Golem.
RF4 allowed your child to fight with you on your party. Can you do the same in RF5?
If the game doesn't allow me to do some child labor, then i'm not buying it
I like rune factory but have never bought a single one
same homie same
emulated ds or homebrew hacked 3ds
What a fall from grace. All the DS entries were overflowing with soul. Pic related was my sexual awakening, looked up porn of her on the dsi web browser and my brother's ipod touch. That was back when the only anime I saw was DBZ or Naruto. In hindsight it was kind of the beginning of my downward spiral.
Take me back
>sexual awaking
>Mist
why is your taste so bland?
Kids don't need much to get going.
I had a crush on a blonde girl from school and I self-inserted us and got married, and also looked at her butt when she sat down in front of me and saw her underwear once.
One time they had a hypnotist come to school and he "convinced" her to twerk on stage and it was like the gods were smiling upon me that day. Permanent spank bank memory
Bro if someone twerked in your school you're probably too young to visit this site.
That was at our graduation party in 2014. I was old enough then lmao
I did stalk her from 6th grade till college. Even now I check her twitter every so often because theres a picture of her in a bikini, and i imagine an alternate world where I asked her out and get to hold and kiss her. It makes me cum faster than porn
I draw pictures of her in my notebook sometimes too. But they look really bad
The main reason I never asked her out wasn't fear of rejection, but because sje said cuss words and that was very christian. I may be a weirdo but I don't want to burn in hell.
>got cucked out of teenage love by abrahamic fairy tales
She also drank alcohol underage and thats illegal and a sin
newsflash rslur definition of sin doesn't change depending on age
Correct. Drinking alcohol is a sin. Underage drinking is illegal. Breaking the law is a sin, unless it goes against God's word. Do you even read the Bible?
Nice blog

Take this to /adv/ you fricking weirdo
Okay I'll talk about RF
I didnt know how to marry people so I just went to Mist's house every day and talked to her, I imagined little conversations we'd have. I eventually bought an action replay and used a cheat code so we would get married.
My brother asked to play the game sometimes but I wouldnt let him because it felt like I was getting cucked
One time I overheard her say her street name, so I drove to where she lived and waited outside for about an hour until I saw her through her living room window. Sometimes I wonder if I just knocked on her door and pretended to be lost or something she would invite me in
That probably would've gone over well, why didn't you do it?
SOUL
One time I stole her gym bag when she left the classroom. There was only a shirt in it, not underwear like I was hoping, and it smelled fricking awful so I threw it away. Still have the bag though.
This Black person is gonna murder someone
I'm too weak to hurt anyone besides someone sick or elderly. But I did kill my familys cat when I was younger. We had this cover that went over the bath tub to keep it warm. I saw the stupid fricking cat shitting in the tub like always and closed it and turned on the water as hot as it would go. Everyone thought it was an accident, because I wasn't technically supposed to be home yet.

Respect the Turnips you little shit
I didnt know how to store wood, to upgrade my house. I would just pick up branches and put them in my house. I didnt know they would store if you just chopped them. I played hundreds of hours but never made any progress. Got stuck in carmite cave.
You were on the path to greatness
What a shame
>action replay
SOVLLESS
I played the game probably more than any of you. I just wanted to marry my wife. Wouldnt you do anything to be with your true love?
Like stalk them at their house? You fricking weirdo
You're excused, that is SOVL
Oh I also looked a lot like the MC so it was kind of like my fantasy world where I got to have babies with my crush and farm radishes.
The shills here and on the steam forums are pretty funny when anybody can tell it sucks after playing for a little bit.
we just wanna farm anon
Could you frick off and fix the game at once xsneed
you will never marry the children
you will never marry the milfs
you will never marry the dragons
chud
Fix your game xsneed
I put like 200 hours in the 4th one, but I'm on the edge with this one; the colors looks very bright (could probably fix them in nvidia control panel) and the art direction/transition to 3D is questionable (I feel they put more effort in the opening sequence than everything else, or maybe they blew their budget on Matsuoka).
I don't mind if it's "more of the same", since I enjoyed going full autism with the 4th, but the other complaints make me consider if it's worth the price tag.
Just play the demo (pirate it)
Pirate if you really feel the need to play it. It doesn't deserve money.
Shall I play RF Oceans on RPCS3 or on Dolphin?
>one of the nigs who talks shit about this game because of the gayshit
>decide to grab a pirated copy of the game
>tfw unironically enjoying the game and cant stop playing it
Guys I'm so sorry. RF5 actually still have the sovl.
I fricking wish. I went in with low expectations from all the doomposting and was still disappointed.
Maybe you are the one that is soulless?
xsneed fix your game
You have very low standards.
Hey give me a break. I haven't played any HM game since RF3 so I appreciate some comfy farming even if the graphics are shit.
it's not a AAA cinematic experience, of course those anons would hate it
You didn't play 4? No wonder you like this trash
Not yet. I'll play it when I "finished" this game.
I guess so. Well, ignorance is a bliss I guess. I get to enjoy the game while other people can't help but to get focused on finding out the flaws of the game. And if RF4 is that good then much better. More fun HM for me to look forward to.
Wow, same here. Except I did play Stardew Valley on a whim and somehow managed to clock 140 hours in that one despite installing fast travel fast travel and bigger sprinkler mods. RF3 will always be the goat for me because of my wife Raven. Thinking about marrying the moron wolf girl in RF5, though.
I was excited to marry Fuuka until I married her. I hated it so much that I deleted my save and started over. She's just so damn childish and stupid and has no interesting traits. All she talks about are fish and shiny stones.
>Why is the dog I married a dog???
I didn't play the game but I know what he means. If a relationship doesn't significantly develop the character then what's the point?
>I only married the dog hoping it would turn into a duck after.
You act like Misasagi and Murakumo aren't were-animals.
I find this unreasonably funny because anon effectively got relationship baited the exact same way people do in real life. Relationship psychologists have an actual term for this shit that I can't remember but I know that the rule is to only ever date people who you can accept as is.
So the "i can change him/her" people are on suicide watch?
I'm only aware of this shit in passing from people who have actual expertise but there was something I was told that I liked which was that all you bring to a relationship is love, and you can't fix anyone if it would take more than that.
wow for real? Does she change after having kids? Im thinking of going for her in the 1st run but I have a save file ready to go for Scarlett or Ludmilla in case she sucks too much. They made her totally moronic.
Wow, actually kind of a turnoff. I'm only at the farming tutorial right now but so far Lucy seems kind of like a c**t and Priscilla is cute but a little boring.
Do I really have to go for the succubus now...?
Sounds like women
The issue is that it looks worse than a Rune Factory game made for the Wii released 14 years prior to it, this is just incompetence, also the Switch hardware can't be used to blame it because there are better looking games for it
Frick off Xseed WHERE'S MY LIVIA ROMANCE?
That's the general consensus shitposters, gayposters and e-girlposters aside. Better in 4 in some ways, but also worse in some areas just leaving a lot of people kind of disappointed, especially for those who waited almost a decade for the next installment.
Why do shills keep trying to deflect with "uh you just don't like it because you're HOMOPHOBIC" to avoid mentioning that the game is unfinished and a step down from the previous game in pretty much all departments?
Stop astroturfing. All the doomposters ended up being right about the game.
It's not awful or anything now that it actually runs, but it's just disappointing if you're coming from 4. I'm one of the guys that complains about it most but I'm still going to play it to completion because there's so few somewhat decent games in this niche.
If you're enjoying it then that's all that matters, don't let us stop you. But that doesn't mean it's immune to criticism, especially from fans who actually engage with it.
shill me this series
farming is fun
You can marry this cutie. But only in the first game, dont bother with the others
I don't really have a stake in this but just to be fair and since I haven't played, from merely a glance it's looking like the "gay content" is just gender flipped dialogue.
So for example if you're a guy dating a guy you're getting the girls dialogue with him/her switched. Which also means this gay dialogue didn't exist originally and was added in translation?
Correct me if I'm wrong of course but from seeing this if you're worried about "gay" content then you should be fine since you legitimately would have to go out of your way to see it.
the gay dialogue was not added. It was made "gay" by having it applied to both boy and girl MC. It's not "new" added dialogue.
Also, for the most part yes, but there are romantic events, that can activate for any gender regardless if you care to see them or not, and it's almost impossible to avoid them. There are also bugs like this one
The gay content wasn't originally in the game and is a direct result of foreign meddling. This, combined with the evidence of Livia dlc being shelved, gives a [probably correct] impression of marvelous compromising the game they want to make in favour of foreign dollars.
They did all this moronation and the western release still sold like shit
500k
Surely the xsneed israelites could use the money to force the devs to fix the game
>inb4 the numbers are fake
Worldwide
It did ~100k in JP so the western release saved ot
If that means they will focus on the burger market the franchise is 100% dead, can't wait for the troony characters. Soon I will be able to post the YWNBARW pasta in every thread for every game in existence. Can't wait
Yet Livia and Radea specifically have romance dialogue in the files for male and female characters. Clearly they did work on it after they decided to make gay marriage a thing.
XSEED homosexuals blackmailed the devs to not release the dlc moron
If they go through with it then by all means I'll retract my statement to just bash on xseed, but so far marvelous has really hurt my confidence in them.
In particular the performance of the switch release. Just because it runs fine on PC does NOT mean that it was in any way acceptable to release the switch version in the way it was. That doesn't change it, anyone who spent good money on that copy is still burned by it. It's completely unacceptable to be released in that state.
I have over 400 hours in the Switch version. It was clearly acceptable. People kept posting ancient Japanese webms of players falling through floors but no evidence was provided that it was still in the patched Global version. And the framerates only stuttered when you first loaded into an area. After a couple of seconds they would stabilize.
And load times? I'm 35. I'm used to load times. Maybe if you're ten and you need everything to be on an SSD you'd have a problem with it but I didn't.
Shills be shilling i guess. How much did they pay you to post here XSNEEDtard?
I'm only here because I want to frick Livia. If XSEED is paying me they're not paying me enough.
>shills straight up admits he's a shill
LMFAO i'm just screencapping this for future use when RFtards deny being a two-faced shills
I'm also your dad, since you take everything posted on the internet literally. You're grounded. Go to your room.
Go on and post the steam ratings of you game shill so we can laugh at you
I have the switch version too you fricking bootlicker but I also have a thing called standards. I played it last two days before release and using gloves is one of the most painful combat experiences I've ever had. If you're required to press an input half a second to a full second ahead of time for the impact so you just have the guess and mash buttons for combat then that is inexcusable. I'm sorry you have slave mentality but I don't.
>And load times? I'm 35. I'm used to load times.
Good for you
The absolute state of braindead consoomers, holy shit
When I play games, I select Fidelity instead of Performance. FPS is overrated.
>okay watching a slideshow as long as it looks the best it can look
Average consolegay
I knew Livia had scrapped dialogue but I didn't realize Radea did too, frick this gay Earth.
Yeah the player needs to expliticly declare their love for x character if they want to enter a relationship, but some people lost in paranoid obsessions believe the developers have done a complete overhaul in their interactions so that it becomes more gay or something
Anyone figure out a way to enable the RF4S characters to appear without having to buy RF4S on steam? I already bought RF4S on switch and I don't want to buy it again.
I think the most depressing thing that happened was when I heard her talking to her friends about how to get an abortion. Not only is she condoning the sin of murder, but the fact that she knew so much implied she had already had sex, and been impregnated by someone else, just to kill the baby. That was when I stopped following her for a little bit. But now I tell myself maybe she was just joking
This is why you don't marry the succubus.
She was probably just joking, she liked to do that a lot.
Humans have souls, butthole licking animals do not.
I'm just remembering how I used to play RF1 for the DS. It's related.
>murder is a sin
>casually tortures and murders animals
Yep, thats a christ-cuck
I didn't ask
Why is the game so fricking ugly? I thought they rehired the team that went bankrupt
They are still creatively bankrupt
>2 dragons
>can't have either after 4
Not sure why this developer is so full of spite
Fitgirl when?
Anyone else jerk off to beach day?
you frickers should be reviewing bombing this abomination on steam to send a message to developers no one wants gay agenda in their vidya
In a way I'm glad this game gets almost nothing but shit threads since it's legitimately awful and doesn't deserve better.
Paying 60 dollars to say a game is garbage is moronic. Only the clueless or mindbroken would buy and review this pile
RF4 was okay. The story progression being locked in location-based events that the game doesn't tell you anything about is moronic. Cuting waifus for more dudes was also bad idea. It's probably the only RF where I didn't have to second guess who to marry.
RFF still has the best girls and the best gameplay if you patched out the moronic runie system with RF3 being a close second.
I'd rather have a remake of RF1 than a new entry at this point.
Christ what happened in this thread? It reads like fricking /vt/.
stalker-kun made an appearance
Turns out trannies ruined the game
Same thing that always happens in RF5 threads.
someone admits to stalking and animal torture in every one of these godforsaken threads
I never see any gameplay discussion in these threads, it's always pining for the older games or shitposting
Well yeah, the gameplay is like 4 but worse and with less content. There's not much to say.
the series has been bad since support f mc were added pandering to femoids was a mistake
The gameplay is a clunkier version of Frontier with less waifu options.
haha I didn't know the helmet would show up on a party member, my future wife and I are now matching because that was my 2nd best helm that I had spare
> make dating sim
> can't marry the dragon
fricking morons
You couldn't marry Venti in RF4. Seems like they have a vendetta against scalies.
Is RF3 still the best game?
I just want to marry a RF girl that I could trust to change my diapers but they are all such brats with zero motherly features.
bros, I'm enjoying RF5 more than RF4
Wow even the can't have options this time are shit.
2 of them are married and the other one is a fricking child you pedophile.
and?
>is a fricking child you pedophile.
So?
Do you ever get tired of making the same stupid post over and over or do you actually look forward to it?
Was there ever an explanation of what those arm bands are? The butlers had them.
Weird that Amber got all the westoid rage when she's a merely pretending intellectual with a serious character arc compared to the functionally moronic dog.
Oh, plenty of people actually got mad about Fuuka. However, the reddit for the game banned people for complaining about Fuuka and said debates about her were a banned topic. They didn't want history to repeat itself.
Surprisingly good decision for a reddit board.
They also delete any post criticizing/hating/demanding erasure of characters for their age or looks like pic. There seems to be a lot of hate for Cecil, much more than Kiel ever got despite looking even younger. Their problem with Fuuka is also less looks or age and more that she's "moronic" so she can't consent lol (Fuuka has the widest hips btw, made for breeding). Kohaku acted young and looked younger than everyone else. But for RF5 most people b***h that the milfs and furries can't be married and "all bachelorettes look the same and are too young = pedo game" (ESRB Teen rating btw)
look at this child
>make a human with elf ears, call him a dwarf
>make a human with horns, hey that's a dragon
>make a human with dog ears, call her a dog
>make a human with elf ears + heart pupils = that's totally a succubus guys didn't you know those demons only have differently shaped pupils
Fuuka at least walks on all fours and barks.
Wait this is the succubus people were talking about? Goddamn it, thought there was a big tiddy succubus chick later on.
She's a big girl though
bump
>all bachelorettes look the same
Well this part is true
I'm going to marry her!
You can't for reason.
So that's how you make babbies.
I'll pirate if there's a Livia love mod with the cut lines.
Devs didn't do it so they don't deserve money for it.
Glad that they fixed the performance for the PC version at least. I'll pirate it and try it on the Deck. What is tragic is that the DLC will never come out and shit sales haven't helped its odds.
>shit sales
It's the best selling RF unfortunately
Does Switch version save data can be used for this pc version?
I heard from the last thread you can just rename the file type to .dat and put in the save folder.
Ah thanks for the clarification
Do these games have hours of dialogue before you're allowed to do anything?
Left 3 look like they were literally cut from the same template and had hair and outfit changes.
>homosexual factory
Imagine buying the LGBT version.
I HATE EARTHMATES
I HATE EARTHMATES
I HATE EARTHMATES
I HATE EARTHMATES
Ok Ethelberd
Reminder that the can't have in the middle is a drunk wine aunt with anger problems that drinks in front of her kid, and would probably try to give you a black eye in front of the kids for accidentally reminding her of her dead husband
>Hina doesn't share any colors with her mom
Uhh
Her dad was pink.
waiting for a mod to take out the gay shit and add more bachelorettes
what the frick were they thinking
no seriously HOW IN THE FRICK
This game deserves your money bros. Buy it.
This game does not deserve any money, pirate it bros.
If they wanted my money then Livia would be a candidate.
Dragon segs would have at least made this game tolerable
Just going by character designs, not awful. Two girly girls, two tomboys and a dommy mommy succubus.
Eyepatch lady looks like the only loss, since succubus beats the mature ladies at their own game.
Black person, this is embarrasing. Wait for more sales first
Most bad Steam reviews are reserved for performance issues, the game runs great.
Remember to colonize the mental case forest people who get wet to justice
Is it a good thing to give weapons to party members in RF4S? I read around that it messes things up, is it true?
If it meets their weapon type you should give them stronger ones of that type.
IE Clorica uses spears so give her better spears. Giving them other types is ineffective.
Is sex with Elsje like having sex with a sexdoll?
It's like having sex with Lucie Wilde
Bros, It's not fair...
You need more than voice lines. They'd have to produce the anime wedding scenes and stuff.
They never once mentioned anything about post launch DLC, but since there's unused files labeled DLC must mean it was definitely planned and the cancelled it because they hate dragonfrickers that much. Nevermind that there's nothing else that comes with romancing a character like events and cutscenes.
I mean, yeah. They evidently do hate dragonfrickers since they already knew it was in very high demand after 4.
They had no problem doing that for gays so why should e-girls be different?
I really hate this bara, his design is a complete headache to glance at
Where exactly did this rumor came from? Everytime I ask to see those lines or script no one says nothing.
It's in the data.
I want to FUG a dragon! God fricking dammit
homie what
It's literally right here, these voice lines were labeled as DLC
I would say maybe they are still working on the DLC but that's pure copium at this point
Why does god punish him so? Did he not suffer enough?
>cant adjust audio before starting the game so i blew out my eardrums with this unbalanced audio
thanks japan
so did PC version fix ANYTHING?
It doesn't run like shit and the camera is better.
If you considered a shit game fixed because it can run at 120+ fps then I guess.
You can marry Elsje now
It runs better. It still looks like shit and has less content than 4.
>Can't play game because I'm a linux user
fricking rip
Thoughts on Story of Season Pioneers of Olive Town?
SoS Poot looked like shit from the little that I saw so I didn't really bother.
Same shit as RF5, garbage performance, less content than the games before it, but mindless consumers ate up that shit anyway and it's the best selling game in the series.
why do all the farming/life sim games have mediocre art direction? RF usually has ok art but still nothing amazing.
Going to wait a bit for it to drop in price and see what kind of mods it gets. I wish there was a way to get my unmodded switch's save to my PC because apparently you can use it
price drop?
didn't want to touch this because of the switch stuttering but I just saw the torrent for it up
How's the pc version doing?
sorry I ment Are you guys having fun and falling in love
>Already the perfect dog girl prototype exists
>Developer shits on it by making her e-girlbody and moronic
frick it I hope they get cancelled for pedos.
Not a e-girl.
which is good, breasts are great, shame those devs are pedophiles
Wait this game came out yesterday on PC? I had no idea
Is it even any good with the framerate issues fixed?
Framerate issue is gone but the it's the same bad game unfortunately, now playable
Rune Factory 4 is currently on sale on Xbox, how is it compared to Stardew Valley? That's the only other farm sim game I've played.
Rune Factory 4 is one of the best farming sim games ever made. The only thing Stardew Valley has over it is that it has multiplayer. Everything else is better in RF4.
Shit on the graphics of RF5 all you want, I like it far more than the chibi shit RF4 was forced to use by being made for the 3DS.
Seeing that I only care about single player, that's no issue to for me. Gonna buy jt when I get off work. Thanks for the recommendation.
I've never played stardew valley but everyone says RF farming, at least in 4, has more depth to it, but the combat and crafting is definitely better, there's so much shit you can do with crafting, most of which are hidden mechanics you have to figure out on your own or look it up
they're quite different, when it comes to crops for example SV follows that Harvest Moon model where each season has its own crops and most of them just get obliterated upon a season change, in RF4 there are more variables involved, they don't disappear but there are seasons where specific crops grow faster and in others it's slower, and they don't magically die upon a season change, which is nice, there are a lot of little details about how soil works, not only being able to speed it up but there are items that boost the quality of items, which is more expanded than on SV
I think the item quality scaling from RF4/Story of Seasons should really be copied by SV. Most items have 10 levels of quality, and if you use a level 10 turnip to make a salad, it will be sold for much more than one made with a lv 1 turnip, also its bufs will be greatly expanded as well. You can get higher level seeds by using a scythe on grown crops. This is something that has always bothered me in SV, if you use artifact quality base mats for food, it makes no difference at all to the end product
RF4 is way more of an action RPG, with tons of skills that gradually increase upon using, shitloads of them, walking is considered a skill, there are multiple weapon types, elemental magic, and each one of the skills increases certain things, HP/Rune Points (the energy equivalent of the game) and some combat stat like leveling shortsword increases your strength stat
There's a whole lot of shit to do with crafting, you can craft tons of shit, and you can stack many buffs by using monster drops, and you can also increment the recipes yourself with those buff items. There's a whole lot of stuff you can do that is kinda cryptic.
When it comes to barns for example you can tame all monsters you find in the game, and some of them give those crafting materials that give buffs when in a barn, not all of them do
Why is the hips-to-breasts ratio so bad? Why are they afraid of breasts?
is to appeal to a certain "audience".
A certain "audience" that is always complaining of girls with cow breasts
The girls are the last thing I b***h about because I'm a small tit enjoyer. The performance issues and bland environments piss me off however. Image is from Rune Factory Frontier. How the frick are we regressing?
Texture resolution is a thing. Also marvelous could only go far with these low-res origami models until people started to notice how basic the character look closely. It's better to try out new tools, even if they are clumsily used at first, than to stick forever to the same ones
isn't it just incompetence? There are better looking Switch games that don't constantly drop frames the way RF5 does
I guess so. Just wanted to point out that it would be foolish to expect some barely ressurected devs to manage giving their switch game a noticeable quality bump
In rune factory 4, can you combine an accessory you already combined with another one and get 2 effects from it?
I don't have a way to craft heart pendants now and I combined that into another accessory but now I can craft Happy rings, can I use that combined heart pendant + other acc with a happy ring to get both effects?
I've been living under a rock, how does this compare to 4
Badly.
4 also sucked though
I don't know what you thought sucked about 4 but 5 would give you an aneurysm
doc I've been diagnoses with a disease, and the cure is to let me frick your wife
The heroines look so plain. Why can't the MC marry this one?
Referring to girls who stand around and wait for you to solve all of their problems through the power of sex as "heroines" is cringe.
She looks plain too
