itt: games that killed their series
>>388935924
It's a shame. RF4 was an amazing game. It was the epitome of the entire series. It was only really lacking in waifus. Everything else was top notch though. I'd really like to see a revival. Oh man, could you imagine a rune factory on the switch? That would be amazing.
>>388935924
It was pretty shit. In fact the only good RF game was Oceans.
RF 4 was great.Cloricais the best
>>388935924
whats wrong with it?
>>388937174
no dragon romance
>>388935924
I loved every moment playing this game, it's a series that deserves to come back from the dead.
>>388937092
holy fuck anon how can you have such shit taste?
>>388937174
Very little (there are some things though like RNG), but the developer died after making it.

IT'S NOT FAIR

This was a proper MGS game unlike Ride a horse for 10 minutes to reach a lameass guard post with 5 guards TTP.
I thought the original team all went to Marvelous or something and confirmed they were working on RF5 though.
Maybe I am imagining things, but I vaguely recall there being hope.
>>388938808
Don't worry anon someday someone will be willing to someday.

No, it wasn't

They're capable of making it but nothing's come of it yet. They're still waiting for the ok as far as I know. They recently released a RF3/4 pack in nipland and it sold out almost immediately so maybe they were trying to raise awareness/gauge interest in the series. Don't lose hope.
neverland was already going under when rf4 came out, marvelous took in the key devs from rune factory so they could finish lord of magna so it's still possible they make another.
>>388935924
Whats wrong with this? I was planning on getting it. I never played any other in the series
>>388942000
Nothing. It's great. The devs just ditch the series
>>388935924
Nothing wrong with RF4, but RIP devs.
I enjoyed RF4 quite a bit, but I think it's flawed compared to RF3
They dump everything on you all at once. It wasn't a make or break thing for me, because I've played all the other rune factories, but these games need to have a smooth/gradual introduction of systems. Also you have no stamina at the start so having 600 things you can be doing is frustrating.
That's only an issue starting out, once you make it past that point it's fine. The more long lasting thing that irritated me was your character is the center of the universe. Every other game you're by yourself on a farm on the edge of town. RF4 you live in a mansion in the center of town with a dragon and butlers. It irritated me when MMO's shifted from you being a nobody making your way in the world to being the chosen one, and it irritated me here too.
(Also the waifus are good, but not great. RF3 I was torn between 4 different girls I wanted to marry)
>>388942529
They didn't ditch the series, they ran out of money.
RF4 is the highest selling in Japan and get amazing reviews. Neverland died because literally everything they make that isn't RF is pure garbage.
>>388936783
RF4 had the best waifus desu
>>388942000
It was the best game in the series, but the devs were going bankrupt when it released and it didn't do well enough to save them.

>only one short hair girl
>rf3 had 0 short haired girls in them, the tomboy one had a massive ponytail
>rf2 had 0 short haired girls
I agree that it has the best waifus. Still, realy lacking in vararity
>>388943292
Half the girls in RF3 were worthless meme girls anyway
>>388935924
waifus were shit in this game, that even the husbandos were the better/ more interesting option despite being also shit.
>>388943292
Short hair is fucking trash and all girls should have medium to long hair.
>>388935924
>Best selling game
>killed the series
Oceans killed the series because they had to develop for the PS3.

>They dump everything on you all at once. It wasn't a make or break thing for me, because I've played all the other rune factories
RF4 was my first RF and I didn't have very many problems. I was kind of underlevelled for the last boss and I used a guide to figure out the third arc shit.

t. nigger
dont choke on that KFC
>>388944046
weirdly, that might have been to your benefit, because you had no set expectations.
It doesn't ruin the game, it just makes the first however many hours less pleasant than they need to be.
>>388938991
It had the absolute best gameplay of the series; shame there wasn't more of it.
>>388935924
never played any games in this franchise. What game do I start with?
>>388946434
Rune Factory 3
