Who is the best Rune Factory girl and why is it Sofia?also Rune Factory 5 never
>>382023073
That's not how you spell Forte
Karina is best.
>>382023073
Sofia is DISGUSTING and SHIT wife material. She is absolutely NOT my favorite.
>>382023212
Karina is literally the worst besides Colette, she is rude and does nothing at all.
>>382023496
She's a cute sleepy girl that loves you. That is good enough for me.
>>382023073

This is a normal dialogue as well, you don't need to level up the love points or whatever to get it.
>>382024492
Please remember to keep Titan Tomatoes away from the best girl.
I'll always have a soft spot for Rosetta.

Fuck you! Collette is cute CUTE! you are just jealous of her metabolism.
>can't marry best girl (dragon)
>>382023073

>>382023496
Karina isn't rude, she's rather chill to the point of laziness, which is cute. Besides she'll step it up when she's motivated, like when she's jealous.
>>382023073
>Sofia
>Best

I wish you ALL THE BEST IN LIFE and that your continued existence is a PAINLESS AND FULFILLING one.

You can cheat on her and she doesn't care. The OP is right: Sofia is the best.

Is there any desent DS emulators yet?
How come the best girls is always the canon "first" girl you meet? Shara, Mist, you name it, they prove it.
>>382028351
I'd rather her mom's meat buns but the game wont let me

Well, there's also Rita who is literally 10/10. And then there's Shino in RF3.
It's a shame you can't waifu mothers in RF games.
>>382030132
tell it to me
I did married Bianca in RF1 and when I found her in RFF i didn't doubt and I went for her again.
what makes my blood boil is the fact that none of this matters, Raguna marries with Mist and lives unhappy the rest of his life. no qt rich tsundere for me, thanks turnip fucker.

>>382030373
The game wasn't quality enough.
Honestly, the best Rune Factory game is Frontier, as long as you apply the Runey cheatcode to get rid of the Runey gathering nonsense.
The Runey gathering would actually be alright if the animation for it wasn't so fucking long.
>>382030462
Risk of Rain farming update WHEN
I have actually never married in Rune Factory and almost always give up. Closest I've come are 2 and 3, barely played 4.
I failed in 2 because I accidentally deleted a save when I thought I was loading it.
In 3, I got to the part where you have to grow flowers, but was dumb and impatient enough to plant them all at the same time and I don't remember which ones I need.

I never understood bases in math class. Whats the point of them? Its still the same number of objects its just written differently. Seems obtuse for no benefit.

That's good. They started fucking up the series by taking away girls and putting in more guys.

What could possibly need something in a different base besides binary? Like what use could there be for something like base 37?

The only way she would have been better is if she was ameido.
>>382032857
If you have a physical source that 37 different outputs, it is easier to use base 37 to describe that source.
>>382031907
>>382023194

>>382032295
it seems obtuse because you are too used to standardized base 10. mostly used in software for being space efficiency and binary conversion. Its not a hardwired thing that humans must think in base 10, its a completely learned habit. other developing cultures have used other bases as their numeric system. In fact, some agree that if we could change what base we all calculate in our daily lives, it should be base 16 to match our computers just because it would be more efficient, but we are too deep into the base 10 hole to change now.
>>382032686
I see no problem in putting more guys if they don't take away the girls.
Even fucking Stardew Valley could do that

>>382033234
The game does really encourage you to take people with you just for tidbits like that. Its a damn shame they're so useless in combat.
Cool Story Bro:
I did manage to go full autism and beat RF4 without attacking anything except when I'm required to be solo. Margaret + Forte is the best combo. Forte does good damage, Margaret has healing.

Possibly unfortunate for other people in that situation. I'll admit to being heavily biased to her JP VA, so she was always going to be my favourite along with Sofia.
>No RF5 EVER
It hurts.
I haven't played RF yet but I've have played a lot of HM games before, should I start with RF3 or RF4?
>>382037795
Doesn't matter that much between 3 and 4 since not that many "quality of life" things where changed, 3 has some really great characters so I guess I'd recommend that one to start with
>>382037795
Start with 2 and if you don't like it move to 3.
Save 4 for after 3.
Why is your fish so pathetically small, anon?
>>382037210
Why not?
It's so hard to choose a best girl in 4. I went with Amber but I feel like they all could have been a good choice. There's so much shit to do that I don't think I'll make another run to test the others, but I'm really curious about each of them.
Raven is my favorite.

>Start playing Trio of Towns to see if it makes a good RF replacement

Not having dungeons really feels like a whole chunk is missing. I know Story of Seasons is supposed to replace Harvest Moon and not RF but it just feels kinda lacking. I finish up all my daily duties fast and have nothing to do for hours. Not to mention getting materials for simple shit like outfits takes fucking ages and will end up costing you a ridiculous amount. Maybe it's just been way too long since I've played a HM game but I don't remember shit taking this long before.
>>382033289
I completely forgot about that.
>>382044086
Oddly enough I found Ever Oasis to be a RF replacement, but that is just me.
>>382045080
I was actually getting that vibe from the demo so I ordered it last week. Can't wait for it to come in. How are you liking it so far?
>>382045080
What about miitopia? Not really a replacement but it seems to give a similar vibe.
>>382045383
I really like it so far, it have those small tasks that RF and harvest moon have, there are dungeons with chests and shit, I like how some characters work specially well in certain dungeons, and Esna is a qt.
>>382044086
The thing about Trio is that it starts out slow, but quickly opens up in the middle of the first month when the other town opens up.
Most people have the problem with finishing up chores too early, but very quickly they'll find they have too many things to do and not enough time.
The progression system definitely is a bit on the slow side, but I don't mind that. There's plenty of ways to speed up how you level crops and animals too.
The only real flaw I see is the town rank system requirements. Some are fine, but those time sensitive crops are a wall unless you have access to the cellar on your farm.
Besides that it's a top tier HM game and one of the best in the series.
>play RF4
>none of the best girls are dateable
lame
>>382045492
When will miitopia be released here again? it looks more like a classic RPG but the relationship thing is interesting.
>>382045897

They really are all lame, I only got around with Dolce because you can't marry her side loli.
>>382045750
Yeah I really like all the cute little races and the world just seems really fun and interesting. Plus, I'm a sucker for Egyptian/Arabian inspired settings. Is there a romance aspect? I figure there's not since it seems more focused on exploring and town building.
>>382045838
I'm in fall now, pursuing Inari actually. I think my main problem is that I feel like I'm way behind where I should be. I just got a horse the other day and got wild foxes to like me but in terms of expanding my farm and everything I don't think I'm doing enough. I had to skip the cooking festival since I didn't even buy any recipes yet. I may have sounded too harsh in my post but I really am enjoying it, especially since the last Harvest Moon game I played for an extended period was Magical Melody.
Post more Inari.

>>382046586
Well you hold hands with Esna all the time but there really don't seem to be a direct romance, she likes you a lot tho.
Also there is a seedling that is basically fucking one of those scorpion guys, and the sneks are all cute moe girls that "tee-hee" each time you play as them.
>>382047312
The second.
Trio of Towns is a huge improvement compared to the first. Not just in gameplay mechanics, but also the actual performance is better.
The first SoS game had horrible fps.

Christ how lewd. Hows the character customisation? In terms of appearance and all that.
>>382030638
>Honestly, the best Rune Factory game is Frontier
Frontier probably has my favorite general feel, music, aesthetics, and the girls were my favorite too, but the gameplay improvements made in 3 and 4 are too good. Playing Frontier again feels like a chore, and it doesn't have nearly as much dialogue as 4.
>>382047917
Says a lot about you, maybe.
>>382030638
>>382048335
I like the idea of frontier but I can't turn on my console and play rune factory, I can only play it properly on a handheld.
>>382047927
>Hows the character customisation?
Very limited, you only can choose if you play as male or female, the skin color, and the eye color.
You will get different clothes as you progress, the clothes are purely for cosmetic purposes tho.
>>382044086
>I know Story of Seasons is supposed to replace Harvest Moon and not RF
It's not replacing Harvest Moon, it IS the series formerly known as Harvest Moon in the west.
The Japanese game franchise, Bokujou Monogatari, was licensed to Natsume under the name Harvest Moon.
Marvelous decided that they wanted to use their own localization studio, XSeed, to handle the localization of Bokujou Monogatari in the future.
Problem: The name "Harvest Moon" is a Natsume copyright, and they aren't interested in giving it up. Thus, they decided on a new name for Bokujou Monogatari in the west, that being "Story of Seasons".
tl;dr: Story of Seasons is the current name for the Bokujou Monogatari franchise that we grew up with. The series that's currently called Harvest Moon is Natsume's ORIGINAL FRANCHISE DONOTSTEAL.
>>382048667
Good enough for me, I was mainly worried I'd be stuck with the starting clothes. Is it just a handful of outfits or a decent amount? Also is there any multiplayer stuff to do? I got a copy for me and a friend and figured we'd at least have fun playing at the same time. Thanks for answering all my questions.
>>382027547
>though I'd hate Shoe Pie just from her introduction and would like Margaret
>turns out to be the complete opposite, end up marrying Shoe
>>382048913
I yet don't know how many clothes there are, I still don't finish the game, I don't see any option for multiplayer of any kind tho.
>>382030638
>The Runey gathering would actually be alright if the animation for it wasn't so fucking long.
Fucking this so much. The runey system is a cool idea and actuially good. Just the execution is fucking cancer because it takes so lang to catch every runeys with that shitty vacuum.
Besides Frontier is the RF. Next is 4.

Rune Factory blondes have a 4/1/0 win ratio in my book, with the 1 being Odette.
>>382049839
Frontier is my second favorite after 4 in spite of the runeys.
I don't know that I'd have the patience for it today, though.

where should I start if I want to get into Rune Factory? Im guessing the first game or no
>>382051761
There is only two ways anon.
1- Ignore RF1 and 2 then play RF3 and 4.
OR
2-Play all the games in order.
RF is like Disgaea, it get more refined with each game and playing an older game after playing a newer game will be fucking painful.
>>382051761
Frontier is a great starting point.
if youd rather just stick to handheld games go with 3 and 4.
This is coming from someone who played all but 2 as they released.
>>382033484
I'd argue that base 10 comes very naturally to humans because we have a total of 10 fingers in our hands.
Thinking of going back to arc 3 of RF4 since I never finished it. Last thing I remember is that I kept dying to an ice mammoth boss. Any tips for not dying in Rune Prana?
