Thank you for the great tips!

And yeah I was wondering that myself. I've been buying my seeds there this whole time without even knowing about the general store! Haha I hope I didn't cause people to hate me for that.

I don't think it affects anything. It's just more expensive @ Joja so you'll save some money shopping at Pierre's.

I stumbled upon the event where
Spoiler:
the joja representative comes into Pierre's giving 50% Off coupons to everyone. And they all leave! I felt so bad!
George has become my first good friend haha mainly because Evelyn told me his favorite gift and it's pretty easy to acquire.
I visit him and Evelyn everyday. They're the sweetest couple especially after what they've been through. After finding
Spoiler:
the note from Evelyn's deceased daughter
in her room it solidified my love for this game. There's so much emotion hidden in each life and of course they aren't just going to tell someone they just met. They open up as they get comfortable with you. Im realizing that some things you need to snoop and find out for yourself which is walking a fine line of friendship and privacy.

Is it ok to snoop because you two are best friends and they may not mind or should you respect personal privacy but they may never truly express their feelings and you won't really get to know them?

Haha ethics.

Omg I didn't know about this!! ;_; I'm gonna go find it right now. I love how fleshed out the characters all are.

Who's everyone's favourite non-marriage candidate villagers? (I guess Shane and Emily don't count now!)
I really like Robin and George and Evelyn.

Here's my farm again! I added in paths and I'm liking how it's looking. I love the colours in Fall~

After seeing Thundawave's post I started going through EVERYONE'S stuff haha. I found the letter they mentioned as well as:
Spoiler:
A note from Marnie ('M') in the mayor's house requesting she spend more time with him ;) They are super secret dating heeeeyyyyy
Robin and Demetrius are my favs even though I don't plan on marrying Sebastian or Maru (both of which are also amazing). I also make a point to hang out with George and Evelyn a lot, they're so sweet <3

Just got to the Skull Cavern aawwww yissss! Still trying to figure out how I want my farm laid out but I'm in winter so ya know, not a whole lot to work with. I want an orchard and a space for all my makers, etc :lol:

I really loved Demetrius until
Spoiler:
a Maru heart event where he was essentially like 'stay away from my daughter you'll only distract her'. Like. Demetrius I thought we were friends. You can trust me.
When I first got to the Skull Cavern I was so overwhelmed! Those flying dragon things are terrifying.

There's progression in that if you carry on Maru's route. It's quite interesting and he does admit he was a jerk

Further proof of this is how
Spoiler:
They are always in the tavern together and sometimes Marnie wont even acknowledge you because she is too lost in the Mayor's eyes >=]
Another point is the fact that you find the mayor's underwear in Marnie's room!! And lastly, Marnie just so happens to have a pair of brown suspenders in her dresser... hmmm
:lala: Scandalous

Has anyone noticed the books in Demetrius and Robin's room? Or the one on the table in Pierre's room xD

Also I find it really sweet (and I'm not sure if its mentioned anywhere) that Pam gives Penny the bed in the trailer and Pam sleeps on the couch. You're told by many people that Pam is Penny's mother and you see Penny going in and out of the trailer. But inside there is only one bed and if you look closely at the couch there's a horizontal pillow right next to where Pam always sits.

so i just got this game, and so far i'm having a ton of fun!
i just want to know since i haven't kept up with this thread, is marriage better than a typical harvest moon marriage or basically the same? like does dialogue change daily, etc?

^ Yay I'm glad you're enjoying it!
To begin with, the marriage was really glitchy and disappointing apparently, but he added in a patch and now all the marriage candidates have unique marriage dialogue! So far I'm really enjoying it. We've been married a few seasons and I still come across new things that he says - like things particular to upcoming festivals etc. Their dialogue at festivals even changes sometimes! They help you with tasks every now and then too too.
It's still a little underwhelming, but I have a feeling he'll keep adding improvements to it as time goes on. Idk if there are any marriage improvements in the big upcoming patch though.

Who are you thinking of marrying?~

So the marriage glitches are gone? I've been waiting on marriage until I saw something that said it was "good to go" haha. But maybe I over looked it somewhere.

You're welcome! Yeah I couldn't decide who to marry for ages. It's definitely worth (and fun) getting to know everyone. Emily and Shane are gonna be new marriage candidates in the next patch, but there's no confirmed date for that yet.

As far as I can tell, yes. I didn't experience marriage before the last patch, but I haven't experienced any major glitches yet. I'd say it's safe though!
