Keep posting.. ^^

Okay! I'll post an new update today on the main post and then post a regular update as a new post. :D I usually post right before I go to bed so I finished everything for the day.

Okay I'm not editing just so those who are looking for an update can see that it's something new!

I've been working my butt off (more thumb off) in these games. However long it will take me to reach my goals today I will stay up to achieve them. However by the time I finish it, it may be late and I may be too tired to update so I will update it tomorrow! I'll probably to a combined update of today's and tomorrows. There is nothing to report of on Monday since I did not do anything that day. So you'll hear from me tomorrow! Goodnight!

Yesterday & Today's Update!

I played 17 days in ILSE, so nothing other than watering for me to do. Filled my place so full of crops I don't have enough PP to water them all..... it makes me laugh when it's called PP. Nothing much but watering.

I played 13 days in HM 64. I voted for Karen to be the Harvest Goddess in the festival, then spent my time raising money so I could get a chicken which I did! :D So now I can give Elli and egg everyday! (except sundays) I danced with Elli at the festival. I'm now saving up to purchase crops for the next season, then a kitchen! :D

I played « Harvest Goddess » knows how many days in HM 2 GBC until the end of summer. For some reason I played forward in the days and did not get the second typhoon (did this without saving). Now I got the typhoon on the 23rd? that's 2 days after the scheduled date (normally it's one day before or after if it's off) how weird. O.O Well anyways, I'm saving up for a Second Home Expansion. I don't care much about the bridge. >.>;; What's the point of having more spaces for crops if they don't give you something to put the crops in and I would have to run all the way up there hold a sweet potato over my head wasting all that time.

So I wrote this above portion here but some how the game didn't save so I had to play that section again. I got two days in a row of heavy rain and then the typhoon on the 25th!!!! I think that walkthrough needs to be updated. I got it way off schedule, yet it says it will only happen the day before or after. @.@ This is crazy!Also to get Ken's Melon's you have to have around 12 melons seeds planted.... I planted like 3 full 9 squares and then 4+7+8 squares.
(wasting seeds but I got them for free on my birthday) so 46 squares of melons compared to the 108 needed. >.>;; Well I win. And when he pays you he says "Wow, great melons." OMG, really? XD

Also, my melons only regrew in 3 days..... it was massive harvesting all at the same time..... massive... like..... yeah... you'd die... my thumbs did.

And that was the funeral. Saved up enough to get the first expansion of my house thanks to ken and his obsession with my melons. >.>;; I have an amazing hilarious cutscene of the major on fall 1 congratulating me on my new big house while the horse sits there and waits patiently.... as he walks off back towards town... XD I added it to my photobucket album, so check the first post!

So now I'm saving up for butter machine! I have figured out that if you turn the Game on and off you can change the weather! :D

Up and Coming!!

I decided after I finish Innocent Life I'll figure out which game I want to play next from either the console or the handheld section. I decided to play Harvest Moon BtN next. I'll probably only play two games on the handheld if they are being played on two different handhelds. Like HM3 GBC & HM FoMT. Or HM MFoMT & Hm DS. Just cause playing two games on the same system is slightly boring. (boring part is staring at the same screen) Same thing with consoles. If they are on the same console I'm not going to play them at the same time. That's why they have all been different so far. (Other than HM SNES & HM MLS but one was virtual console the other was wii ware) My goals for this weekend: Finish ILSE, Play through Fall in HM 2 GBC, & get somewhere with Elli in HM 64! XD

Other info.

So far differences between the two games IL & ILSE.

1) TIME GOES MUCH QUICKER!!!! Being your room does not pause your time!!! I barely have enough time in the day now where I used to have a ton of time. I used to make every food dish every day, I'll no longer be able to now. I know I had way to much time in IL but still now you cut it in half! I just needed maybe a 1/4 off and I would have been happy. :'( Especially since you multiplexed our needed ship rate 10 times!!! I don't even have enough time to water all of my crops!
2) There is also an idle stance. If you stand still long enough he starts to sway back in forth. He does nothing in the original.

Things I hate about innocent life:

1) THERE IS NO PAUSE BUTTON!!! Yeah you can pause time looking in your rucksack or being in a house/store but my goodness!! If I press start I want to pause!
2) THOSE STUPID BELLS! It's way too many bells during the day that just need to shut up. And since when did the afternoon start at 10 in the morning!!! *Will kill those bells!!!*


SO!!! Has anyone else been playing any of their old games? I'd like to hear I'm not the only one! :D

I've been playing Island of Happiness. That's.... older. I played GB2 for a bit a few weeks ago but not for long. And I've played RF2. All of those are pretty old so you aren't the only one.

Yay! :D So how far did you get in some of them?

Since I started IoH summer, but I've gotten years into it before. I haven't even gotten married in RF2 because I was almost got Mana to ten but.... Rosalind is kind of appealing to me now.

Hmmm, I used to re-play innocent life *almost* every weekend when I'm at my parent's house. I probably do it next weekend if I go home.
I just re-play HM64 for 1-2 weeks ago, not now, busy with school and work .
And I still continue played my HM Ds Cute, RF1, RF2, and RF3 at my dslite, not right now, but when I in the mood and my game cards with me.

lol. Sounds like me. It's funny in Harvest Moon I'm always like I know who I want, but in Rune Factory I actually married all of the girls in the first one except for Mei and she was the one I wanted! XD

That's cool! :D HM 64 is a fun game. I hate the camera angles >.< but other than that I love it! I hope you get more time to play!


I have a huge goal ahead but doesn't end until I go to school again. So I'm sure that will leave plenty of time for people to join in the quest!

Haha yeah. For some reason decisions in actual HM seems to be easier even though I always LOVE the guys. Luckily, even though Mana is almost all the way up, it wouldn't exactly be time consuming to change. I mean, wooing in RF is easy.

I'm definitely impressed with your resolve and dedication. I wish I had as much free time as you. *shot*

@Your comments about the Bridge in GBC2: The second field was best used when you had the Miracle Glove, that way shipping was a breeze and you could grow lots and lots of crops. I had it back in the day; it was awesome. -w-

Anyway, good luck in your playthoughs. I myself have been tossing between GBC 2, Save the Homeland, and Hero of Leaf Valley. :3

I know I was able to woo really easily except Mei for some reason... stupid bamboo shoots. But it's such a tough decision I like everyone. It's a lot like rune factory has so many great qualities to each girl, while harvest moon each girl is geared towards a type of guy. This is funny since I am a girl! XD

Well I was on bed rest this semester from school. Fall is always the time I end up in the hospital. So sitting in a chair all day is all I can do. So why not play harvest moon?

I know about the glove I totally understood but you don't get it that early in the game. Plus you need to gameboy colors (which I have) and you need two games (which I can easily get) but it's the link that's my problem! The other think is getting another map. >.>;;

Love them all! :D Those games are so fun! I can't wait to get to Hero of Leaf Valley since I was in the middle of it before I started.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I worked my butt off today on ILSE almost done with it! Will probably update tomorrow since I spent the on my NES!

HoLV is a lot of fun. I'm actually playing it as I type this. Have my PSP hooked up to the TV, eating chips, drinking soda, and searching for Power Berries now that my dog loves me enough. XD On my playthrough I'm trying to go for all the events, so a lot of my day is composed of running around giving gifts to everyone in town.

Talking to everyone in town in a harvest moon game = final boss battle in any final fantasy......... and then you do it again the next day! XD

Okay well good luck! Keep us posted on everything that you complete! :D

Wow have I been busy. Not only was I gone all Saturday, but I worked to finish Innocent Life Special Edition WHICH WAS A REAL BORE!!! It was exactly the same except for I got a pet cat and strawberry's cost decreased by 90% *dies* I was so sad. (So 100G became 10G) And that I got a point of SP for the fishing pole and I don't own it. >.>;;

I got Elli up to a yellow heart. But had a horrible glitch in the game. The game caused me to be sick every time I saved after harvesting my tomatoes, even if I didn't use up energy, wasn't raining, nothing. It was so weird. So obviously I lost a huge amount of progress.

I'm not at winter in HM 2 GBC. I think I am stopping here. I have Completed everything i want to but owning sheep. I feel that I have played this game enough to know it well and continue on to HM 3 GBC. I'll debate it until tomorrow.

Up and Coming!

I'm going to be starting HM BtN not sure of a goal yet. This is replacing my third game which was spin off game play.

After HM 64 will be HM StH and after HM 2 GBC it will be HM 3 GBC. My goal in HM 3 is to get married XD which ends the game. Not sure how long I want to play in HM StH.

If you think of any goals let me know! For Sth and BtN if not my goal is play tot he end of Spring.

Other Info.

:'( I bought a sheep pen in HM 2 GBC and it was built by Winter 1. I have all the grass planted but will never be able to get sheep until spring. How sad.

BtN, goal could be marriage; that's usually a goal for most people. It can usually be managed in a year. StH....Hmm, I'd say do a few endings as a goal. There are some that can be done easily enough. You could even have it that the Cake ending, which requires Golden Eggs and Golden Milk, could be your stopping point, since it usually takes unlocking a few endings first to get animals up high enough for it. I dunno. That's all on you, I suppose. :3

As for my personal playthroughs, I'm at the Summer Year 1 Race on Hero of Leaf Valley, about to participate in the Short Distance after I type this. Doubt it will go well since it's my first time, lol. I also got 5 Power Berries with my dog the other day, so it's a lot easier to do more in one day now. Other than that....all the girls are at Green hearts for me now, and everyone else in the village has 2 hearts for me, except for a random few that still only have 1. Yep, that's it for now. P:
