RF4 Character & General Info Thread (UPDATES / Next: ??)

[MagicShootingStar]

Oh, there it is... I still wonder where that came from.

I also noticed... That..
Lest likes being the prince, yet Frey has a hard time with it?
I find that very interesting. That tells me, that the perspective from each protagonist will be very different... I wasnt expecting that. D:'

[FireFangs]

I didn't know that. I thought they were like Aaron and Aria. You pick your gender and the other one just doesn't exist XD.

Actually, I believe it's confirmed by a in game movie that Aria and Aaron are actually tiwns and both exist. For the gameplay purpose, the one you don't choose is not showed in game though

[soluna]

I'm pretty sure it was information from one of cuc's post when no one was entirely sure if Frey was playable or not. I'm not going through 40 pages of info again, though, so we'll just have to wait for confirmation. xD;;

[MagicShootingStar]

Oh, haha. xD
I believe it, I just must've missed it. :'D
Thanks for letting me know.

In both cases, that sounds really cool, and I wonder if the MCs wil be villagers, or just pop in at the beginning or...

[Googaboga]

Wow that would be cool if they had different feelings about their new role as royalty

I didn't know that. I thought they were like Aaron and Aria. You pick your gender and the other one just doesn't exist XD.

Yeah they are together in the opening. But I was just talking about in game. The other kid did not exist in your game at anytime. So I thought that's how it would be in this game. Where you picked a character and the one you didn't pick never appeared in game XP.

[Saki]

Oh, they feel different as Prince/ss? thats cool. I wonder if it ever so slightly affects the game, if you choose a boy or girl. Probly not much... I cant see it being too different between genders.

[Googaboga]

Well that's what it says on the front page ':D.

It says Frey "struggles with being the town princess". And Lest is happy and willing to do it. So that's cool that they both have unique personality and aren't cardboard cut out people XD.

[MagicShootingStar]

Yeah, I mean... It'd be hard to move if you were card board. D:
/hit

Yeah, it sucks though, if you're the type who wants to have all girl files, or all boy files, as you can't see the other half of the game. xD
Luckily, I am not one of those people. :T

[Saki]

Yeah, i think its really cool to have two different perspectives on it. I just wonder if it effects any great aspect of the game a lot. But i doubt it, as you cant have the game be too different depending on what gender you choose... right? Well i could be wrong...
I have a cardboard cutout of Johnny Depp in my room. Thats the first thing that came to mind when you said cardboard cutout xD

[Googaboga]

I think it won't make much of a difference. They'll probably just have different lines.

That's still nice though

It would be really cool if they did have a larger effect on the rest of the game.

[MagicShootingStar]

Yeah, that's probably true, but.... I'm one of those people, who will go through and look for as many differences in conversation and characteristics as I can, so... 'n'
It'll be worth while for me, I'm sure. ^_^

[CherryRose]

I love the fact she's a musician. <3 But I can't decide so quickly because that takes out all the fuuuun. Although, I've noticed that in HM games I only woo the person I want to marry, while in RF games I woo everyone, even if I have an idea of who I'd like to marry from the beginning. Wooing is admittedly more fun in RF though. orz

I do kinda hope Margaret is Daria sister, not because I like Daria [[it would actually feel just a little strange to marry my RF3 wife's sister on my guy file if I do end up choosing her, it would make me feel biased =3=]] but because it would be cool if she referenced Daria and other Sharance villagers. I still can't get over the sly reference to Lute and Whale Island Daria made in RF3.

Dude, if there's a hot bachelor with either black or crimson hair and blue eyes... I'll die from blood loss. I have been wanting a guy like that for so long. And the closest thing I got to the image in my head - Gaius - I couldn't marry. >:P

Yeah, it's definitely still wide open for me. Even though I generally like to have an idea of who I marry before I start the game, I woo everyone and I also don't want to be tied down so soon. xD It's definitely a lot more enjoyable to woo multiple people in RF games than in HM. Maybe because they don't give just the same few lines over and over? xP

Daria wasn't the only one making references. Carmen named all the different towns so far, even Trampoli. ;D Talking about whether they had rivers, oceans, or lakes. Or something like that. As well as mentioning Whale Island at some point, though I can't remember if she actually saw it or not. But yeah, I just love discovering the allusions they throw in for the players that aren't new to the series. :D So if they actually made Margaret in reference to Daria mentioning a sister, I'd be so happy~

That would be wonderful. I'd love a guy like that. <3 Didn't Kross have black hair/blue eyes? Although it could of been dark brown, and he also wasn't marriageable so...Yeah, it'd be great if they made a guy like that. I'd actually rather him have crimson than black, because we need more guys with unnatural hair colors. >:D Though I guess they gave us that with Bishie, but still. Crimson hair rocks. ^^

As to the protags having different views on the situation, that would be so cool~ I was worried about the protags having similar personalities, so if they included something like that, I could rest assured that their conversations would be more unique. ^^ It would really make the girl option feel real to me, knowing that she's not just a knock off of the male protag and that she's been given just as much attention. :D Of course, I already saw them differently to start off with, but you never know how well that can show through in-game. So I'd love it if this info was accurate.

Yay! The Dungeons! =D

I liked how many of them we had in RF1. This time I hope we will get the bigger number of them too. Honestly, I was disappointed of the ones in RF3 - they were way too small and I didn't like the music theme.

This time the dungeons should be BIG, have some hidden places and be more mysterious. Personally I like the one from the screenshot:

Spoiler:

It looks like a mysterious ruins.

I hope it has as much as the dungeons in RF1! :D And is... Frey holding a spear? owo OMG!

[Fretka]

Every RF had the season-related dungeons. I believe in RF4 we also have them, because we have to grow the crops somewhere So I'm guessing that there are 4 dungeons + some other ones. I have a big hope to see more than lame 5.

[SilverFire]

RF1 had... 6? 7? dungeons. i'm hoping for that many or more :'D i like to explore ^^;
