Why not have the magic be put into Hand-wraps, or in brass-knuckles? Then they're enchanted with the ability to send it back to the forest. Or a special glove that let's you fight unarmed?

Longer and harder plot, more to do after marriage. I think the amount of events from ToD was awesome, and it sounds like they're improving it even more so I'm sure I'll be quite satisfied with marriage. More interesting kids like AWL/AP and bachelor like Joe and Aden and bachelorettes like Sierra and Sonja. I loved all of them.<3

They could totally just make more fluid character animations and add more than 3 character animations during conversations, oh! and on top of that they could make sure to have voice actors at least as good as RF 1 because RF 2 and 3 had horrible voice acting for like 90% of the characters.

I liked the occasional suggestiveness of RFF, I hope they do a little bit more with that.

Personally, I hates rune factory two.. Im not sure why, but It was very...ugh

(there's enough posts about plots and character so I wont go there)

Im personally hoping they put in more side quests (kinda like in RFF with some of the hidden things/the ghost ect)
not guests really, but mini plots and little 'Easter eggs' as they call them.

kinda like... if you rush through the game, you'll miss everything.

Im not sure where Im going with this >///>

Yeah.. The kids are the only thing I can really think of.
And it would be cool if their appearance was based on your spouse.

I loved RF2.. The kids were aweomse. :3

I want a child who can transform into a mermaid woolly.

I hope they keep the aspect of the bathhouse being open earlier.
one of the things I loved about RF3

I want a child I can walk around the town, pick up, THAT HAS A PERSONALITY PLEASE. < n < If I'ma get virtually married, at least make my virtual family life nice. Q n Q Like, make US teach the kid to walk, or come back at 6PM to feed the baby, and 8PM to bathe it and put it to bed. Or, if we don't make it back, y'know, have the spouse do it.

Oh, and pregnancy events. I want pregnancy events. Like, if you're playing a girl and you're pregnant, then the doctor forbids you from going to dungeons so that "the fututre heir of the kingdom" is not damaged in any way, considering our position. It's a lot to ask for - but it's just what I want in the future.

I have no complaints with the plot, characters (I just want more like James. ♥), voices, scenery, etc. I love all of it. I just want the family life to be... fuller. It'd make life after marriage more fun.

XD That would be a beautiful child.


I'm also hoping the opening is going to be as good as RF3's and RFF's. I love the openings. :3

Yeah, I agree. ;n; The kids in RF3 were disappointing..
Which was weird, because in RF2 the kids rocked. >:T
Pregnancy events would be interesting too.

Try not to double post.
There's an edit button in the lower right corner, right beside the quote button. :3

Ahem~
I've heard lots of things about the RF3 kids....
They seemed scary. :l

Though, I understand RF2's kids being better, as its special feature was 2nd gen.
And... well, you'd be the one playing your kid, and the rival kids had to be good, too, as they became the bachelor/ettes.

Pros and Cons off each game from memory(In my personall opinion)
Spoiler:
RF1
(I haven't played it in a loonggg time sinse I lost mine copy OTL)
pros';
Was nicely challenging to woo girls
nice long plot and dungeon

cons;
having to press R to run. Practically killed my R button
It was pretty annoying to have to kill everything before proceeding in the dungeons
---
RF2
pros';
playing as your kid was pretty fun

cons;
it feels like there wasn't enough main plot until you had a child causing it to be easy to lose interest in the game
lots of lag
---
RF3
pros';
bringing villagers into battle. fun stuff
weather changes were nice
bathhouse being open earlier
time passing indoors

cons;
please tell me Im not the only one who thinks 'death wall' is a terrible boss name. Just no.
wayyy to easy to woo the girls.
to easy to lvl (in some cases) and earn money.
to easy to grow previously 60+ day crops
---
RFF
Pros';
RFF probably has the most diverse personalities sofar
the bath scenes and suggestive themes were amusing

cons;
I didn't want to marry a girl D:
the town felt cramped in a way

ToD
I haven't had a tv to play it yet :c
really wish they took the best from each game :V

I remember how in harvest moon, if you didn't make your move on the girl fast enough, her rival would take her. I mean, they kinda did that in RF2... but it didn't really pose much a challange
Rune factory needs more minigames.

I agree with the improved virtual-family features. To me, that's what the harvest moon games are focused on. Well, RF2 and RF3 were focused on it. I also vote you can train your kid to help on the farm/in dungeons.

I honestly think all RF's had terrible VA's, like, they got there janitor to do them.

I agree.
The handheld VA's were.... yeeeahh. I was kind of disappointed.
The Wii games VA's weren't as bad, though.

I didn't really mind the voice acting in any of the games all that much. I guess it just isn't something that I care much about XD. But still loving the characters voices is always something that would be welcomed.

Rune Factory and Harvest Moon are separate series made mainly by different companies. So RF does not need to focus on the same things :l.
