The problem with that is the letters from ANB; they made connections that all of the past games were happening at the same time, which is why Kamil, Licorice, Amir, Dirk and Alisa haven't aged since their first appearance.

...am i the only one who think that pond is so clear-beautiful? i really like the graphics

It does look beautiful! I'm anticipating this game even more now. I love graphics, especially when they are done well. It looks like they paid close attention to small details.

I can't wait for the site to come up. And I'm really liking the way the characters' 3D models look. I never liked the unrealistic looking colours of pasts games. To be honest, I actually perfered the way the pixel models looked in past games, but this is actually really good too.

I'm just really happy they finally decided to take advantage of the 3d graphics and implement better camera angles. It improves the look of the game tremendously and brings back some of the ambiance that console games had.

Famitsu is usually faster than the website though, or else, they won't be able to sell the magazine. Lol. However it is nice that it will open soon. I hope they show the website which will give special goods for PO. Lol.

I really love Yuzuki's design so much! I already put him in my list already!!

Too bad about the mining though. I wish they could bring back the old one since it's been so long that I'm doing an actual mining in a proper cave. ;( Oh well... We can't have everything...

Has anyone else noticed that the two MCs look like the MC's twin kids from SOS? Their hairstyles match almost perfectly.

I'm wondering how many villagers they're going to have per town now that they have 3 towns. I know in ToTT they had 15 in Bluebell and 14 in Konohana and I'm pretty sure that's including the marriageable candidates. So if there's around 30 characters in game then each town might just have only 10 characters....

Also the fact that they decided to mention Wes town having formerly been a mining town only to give us back mining nodes really irks me. If they wanted a way to make the game longer I find that a lot of players used to spend countless hours in the mines spelunking away. But I guess that's already been said 1000 times.

I find it weird that they always have a flower-loving person in the Western towns even though it'd be the perfect chance to introduce a character that likes ikebana, which, last time I checked, is really popular in Japan. And speaking of Wes town, I hope they give it a better name because it sounds really...unoriginal.

Haven't checked this thread for a while.

...and I'm disappointed because:
1) Mining is not back yet. You have mining town, but no mining!? Smh
2) Brad is not marriageable.

But I like Kasumi and Yuzuki's designs.

Carrie reminds me of those vintage Bradley dolls, though they could have made her eyes more detailed or changed the eye colors. As for now, she looks more freaky than pretty to me :\

The graphics look so pretty! It reminds me of AWL too. I'm excited to see more screenshots!

So far, I really like the way all the Bachelorettes and bachelors look. I think that Lichette looks kind of weird in her art, but looks cute in the actual game.

Yeah I felt the same way. Glad she looks better in game though because that's what matters more since that's what I'll be seeing. Hopefully the same goes for Carrie since she's lookin a little weird. I like her art more now that I've looked at it more so I'm used to it, but still hoping the in game one is better
