Ushi No Tane Forum

Oh I thought of another question - what are the confession/proposal items for each town? IIRC only the blue feather for Tsuyukusa was revealed. Also can we go on dates with our significant other, like in ToTT?

But it might take me a while to find it since I think it was in one of the information package releases from the magazine, and I don't remember if there was a picture, and I can't read Japanese, lol...

Edit 2: I know I remember specifically them saying that there were lots of skin tone choices...but I can't face wading through 50 forum pages and trying to track it down. I'm sure Cher can easily find it out if the demo includes customizing a character, though. Maybe she already knows.

Yea! I don't recall seeing it at all, I have have seen hair styles, hair colors, and clothing of course, but other than that I haven't seen the protagonist with dark skin like the past two titles. ^^;;

A few people asked questions when you said we could the first time...but not very many. She's given out so much information that we were already waiting for

Dates have already been confirmed by some of our previous Famitsu scans, but yeah I asked the other questions! Also asked about rivals, since I'm sure people would like to know a definitive answer.

Question: Are there any areas to explore, like forests, mountains, etc?

Wait...dates? Like going out with your candidate such as in RF4? I don't remember that at all! Or did I just totally misunderstand what you said? (I do that SO often...)

EDIT in response to following post: Don't doubt yourself because of me, I have a deeply unreliable memory. I don't remember it at ALL, but that doesn't mean anything, I'm afraid.

I could have sworn that was already confirmed? I'd have to look through the scans, but I'll ask anyways.

Edit: It's no worries, there's no harm in asking :p

I think we asked her a good amount of questions, so I'll stop bombarding her on twitter if that's okay with everyone!

This is not an important question, but I'm very curious about how the demo works. (She can tell us that any time, though.) Does it start from character creation, does it go through a bit of tutorial, or does it launch you into the story? It sounds like she managed to find out quite a lot, more than you'd be able to find out in the first few days of a bokumono game. It makes me curious about the demo itself.

EDIT: Yes, please, we don't want to overburden her. My question here is something she already knows the answer to so if she has time she could tell us about the demo itself later, maybe

I'm almost positive it wasn't a demo, but the full Japanese version of the game. She'll probably come online tonight and verify that for us

Thank you!

Yea, sometimes I feel sorry for Cher. So busy with the guides and site, I'm very grateful for it all though.

Then I really wonder how long they let her play for, that she was able to find out so much. Maybe there's a lot available for you to do right from the start in this iteration. Often bokumono games start out really slow and the tutorial portion takes forever...so I thought maybe they altered the game for demo purposes to let the player experience more of the game. I'll be curious to hear how that worked, but it's not important.

Let's not bother her with candidate/romance stuff since she probably doesn't have time to confirm anything (or you can tweet her that on your own) but mostly gameplay stuff would be preferable. Anything in particular?

Can you ask her if you can select dark skin for character creation? I haven't seen it yet this time. And the fact you have an established family made me wonder.

I went looking and found this http://friendsof3villages.tumblr.com/po ... om-famitsu. I swore i had seen the option of skin colour on the character creation videos on the site but it wasn't there.

No prob!

"There are no mountain areas that I saw. Wild items and bugs are all over in the towns and your farm."

"There is a tan skin that I remember seeing from Marv's info, but not what you might consider dark skin." so I don't think she saw the character creation.

I think she's asking the XSEED employees some of these questions, maybe? She goes to E3 every year (Natsume hosts her) and she's met with them the past couple of years, so they know she runs Fogu.

Oh hey, that's the bit I was thinking of, too...thanks for finding it instead of me, Anonymous, I was beyond hope. That was the bit I was referring to, Crystal Power, so...I think that's all we know. Guess it doesn't specifically confirm a dark skin tone after all.

Oh hey, that's really cool, that we can forage on our own farm and in the villages. No wasted time, that way. Or less wasted time, anyway. But...that's unusual, isn't it?
