Marriage Perks

[MFoMT lover]

No, Gustafa would unlock a guitar mini-game.

Oh Goddess, Harvest Moon Guitar Hero. XD

That reminds me. One time I heard a Harvest Moon song on a commercial. It was Last Dance. o.o;

Okies. Now I will think as I go:
Mineral Town marriages:
Boy Version (If the game went on... D: )
Karen - discounts on seeds
Mary - extra books just as fun stories and Harvest Moon secret books
Elli - slightly increased stamina from her doctoring ways
Popuri - help with your chickens (If you don't have chickens, she will give you a free one after you build your coop.)
Ann - occasional meals that her dad makes in Mineral Town, or ones that Ruby taught her
All - go to Mineral Town
Girl Version
Rick - same as Popuri
Gray - cheaper upgrades
Doctor(Trent) - same as Elli, but your stamina increases more
Kai - random event (would occur more than once) - visit his Mineral Town beach house and eat there
Cliff - meet priest Carter, Manna, and Duke
All - go to Mineral Town
------------------------------------------
Valley marriages
Boy Version
Lumina - money added to your account... balance... whatever.
Flora - extra mines
Muffy - discount on drinks, or at least her Moo milk
Nami - visit a nearby village
Celia - help on Vesta's farm (mini-game)
Harvest Goddess - "Throw away" a gift given from her at the wedding (She gives it back.) for a full stamina/fatigue heal at any time every hour. Great for mine trips! (In mines, you can be healed every 50 floors.)
Witch Princess - learn a little magic (Yes, witchy talk!)
Keria - she can speak again, but only to you behind closed doors
Leia - choice to become a merman and live in the ocean (No "Leia blows away" worries!)
Girl Version
Rock - he actually gets motivated to help you with the farm
Carter - same as Flora
Griffin - same as Muffy
Gustafa - Guitar mini-game
Marlin - help with Vesta's shop (mini-game)
Skye - occasionally, he'll give you things he stole

Well, that was fun. Hehe.

I thought that if I married Marlin he'd help me with the crops at the farm, you know, he did so at Vesta's but he still went and helped at Vesta's! That traitor!!!!

I've always thought that it'd be nice if your husband helped you at the farm. It's tiring harvesting, sowing and taking care of the animals by oneself XD and if the thing is that he's already gotten a job, hey! why not share the money! XD but seriously, it' be cool if they had perks.

How about he makes lunch? That way I wouldn't have to cook and just take the lunch with me to the mines or to fishing... it'd be cool if they added a feature where you could "ask" your husband to cook something from a recipe you've already got written down. Or if you could ask your teenager son/daughter to do some chores, like assigning them to harvest, or to water the crops. Like adding a "Chores assignments" menu after marrying, that way you could "assign" a task to your husband (if he doesn't works, like Rock or Cliff) like "Cooking/Making lunch", "Harvest crops", "Water crops", "Pet animals", "Make babies" (<--- that last can be a hidden option XD).

All the working husbands/wives: Help you make money D:

Rick: Help with chickens (feed them mostly)
Marlin: Help water crops
Celia: Randomly level up a crop
Muffy: Heals you via drinks she gives you for free
Steiner/Skye: As everyone said, steal things for you, like seeds (so he'd be just like the cat pet in GBC3)
Griffin: Discount drinks at the bar

That would be so cool.... A spouse who will actually help around the house.. I mean farm...

Oh dear. That would bounce this game's rating up. XD

[Princess Keira]

I want Steiner to steal from the villagers for me. It would make my life a lot easier.
Me: Steiner, honey, can you steal ten bags of pineapple seeds from the harvest sprite tree for me today?
Steiner: Certainly, my dear.
See? That'd come in handy.
