To my way of thinking, a comb is slightly less weird than a feather, which was the default before now, and still is in Lulukoko. I mean, what are you even supposed to do with it? A ring and a comb can both be used/worn, but a feather? I never understood it as a proposal item. You'd have to make the feather into something else to be able to do something with it. Turn it into a pen or an earring or...I'm not even sure. If that's an actual tradition somewhere in the world, I've never heard of it and can't guess how it works.
So the comb didn't seem weird to me, since to me the natural state of proposal items in bokumono games is weirdness, right from the start.

The comb just reminds me of this

Also not happy about the lack of rivals but I didn't think they were going to come back anyways

Exactly! Totally was thinking this lol.
I always liked the blue feather though, but oh well, Wedding ring works for me since I may possibly marry someone in Westown.

Gotta say, I'm legitimately pleased with how much info we got today (thanks Cher!). I really didn't think we were going to get many details, so this just makes release next week so much more hype for me lol. I'm pretty excited for just about everything I think!

The game at the booth is the full version of the game and not a 10-minute demo or anything like that. The towns are all unlocked, so you can freely move from one to the other. There is a nice Xseed rep who is answering the question you're sending. It's actually the same person who was answering questions when Story of Seasons was shown a few years ago
The left shoulder button has the same function as the last version, but now besides showing your friendship it also can act as a quick "hello" to bring up the little chat bubble dialog boxes.
The town shops open at different times. Westown shops open earlier than the other towns, and one of them has a mid-day siesta time but I can't remember if it was Lulu or Tsuyu.
I was running through Lulu and picked some breadfruit from a tree, so that's new. The insects are a little different; you can walk up to them and the name of the bug pops up so you can see what it is.
Tomorrow is the last day and I am flying back home that night.

That's wonderful news, I was hoping for that one (the bug names and so on appearing.) Breadfruit sounds interesting...wonder what it looks like
I hope you have a nice flight home after some fun tomorrow. Thanks for everything, it must be exhausting.

Breadfruit was in StH and HoLV for sure, not sure what other games in the series, but that's a returning crop or foraged item? Psyched. Maple Trees? Double Psyched! Heterochromia? Triple Psyched! (And so on.)
Almost everything is making me more excited for this game. Wish I had the cash to sink into importing this time (game isn't a problem, buying a new system, though?) since it will doubtless be at least a year before it comes out in English. 30% more text is surprising. Not many people will ever see all the text in SoS, since it is so conditional based on many factors, like Clothing and making those crazy Town Edit Combos. I hope it isn't like that in this game to calm down the whiners if nothing else.
I'm loving that Inari is a Childfree option. More and more people these days are choosing CF lifestyle. I am very meh about them in the games. Last good kids were in Animal Parade, IMO. Imminent wedding and kids? Time to start a new game, to me. Inari is getting cemented as my spouse of choice more and more.
The Pet House and Barn only housing 1 animal each though? It better be tiny on my screen and not take up too much of my farm grid. TINY. I know there was a clip of the Barns on Twitter for the animals, they didn't look too big... but running out of space early is a huge problem for me. Having to miss out on this Festival or that Festival if there are conflicting ones is a bummer as well. As long as it doesn't hinder the Ranking progress or make RNG prizes even worse, it is okay, I guess. (SoS was ridiculous in both those areas already.)

What is it about E3 and other game shows that turns Demo players into blathering idiots who have never played a video game before and they just wander around aimlessly? The only piece of good information about that video is getting to see how fast the travel between the Trio of Towns is!
(Okay, also the House has a fixed position away from the farm space, the tiny Barn takes up 2 Farm Squares & the Fall music is good!)
Although, him gushing over the dog is so cute! "Un perrito!" /melt
