I wanna eat squid!
My love, Dolce.
in the age of farming game saturation, how can we make rf6 stand out?
>>738396971make a good game?
>>738396971Lolis in swimsuits, dragonfucking, and pregnant bellies
>>738397114Can't do that. Next suggestion?
>>738400947Where's her shoes?
>>738399125Make a bad game?
>>738401168Anon you're in for a treat. The next 30 farm sims releasing in 2026 are gonna rock your world
>>738394757That's my cute wife
Who are the most jealous girls in RF? Who is the saltiest shunned bride or the most clingy wives?
>>738395306Who's grabbing her arm?
sex
>>738401475Oh boy, oh boy love my *cozy* farming sim slop.But there aren't actually 30 games releasing this year, right?
>>738394757
What farming sims are more RF coded? There's so much indie slop and I frankly find the Harvest Moon and Story of Seasons games dull as bricks.
>>738401825Shara tries to poison your food if you do the other girls' questsso probably her
>>738407637Immortal Life isn't bad, but there's no romance, only best friends who live with you once you hit a certain point
>>738394757haven't played 3 yet, but will definitely marry her.I love dumb retarded girls.
>>738408064shes kinda smartin a dumb way
>>738408064
Dumb but smart girls are way cuter than smart but dumb girls
Why are RF threads always empty?
>>738412014They're slow, and that's not always a bad thing.
>>738396971Unironically go harder on waifu shit. The worst thing when you play all these modern games with dating sim elements is when you can feel that the devs wanted to get their cock out but restrained themselves out of embarrassment.
>>738403912
I just finished Frontier and i'm about to play TOD.Does anyone have the Wii undub ISO they can link me? I will virtually suck you off.
>>738413839>I just finished FrontierWhich waifu did you marry?
What game is getting remade next? Are we gonna get 2's NTR drama?
>>738408035That really looks like generic China slop... Is it really soulful?
>>738413839Check Emuparadise's forums
>>738413839There's also the PS3 version, runs pretty well in RPCS3
>>738414038She's a good girl.
>>738414667Underrated
I need to buy The PC version and play through it again. RF3 is what got me into the series.
>>738396971The genre has been oversaturated ever since Stardew Valley succeeded and everyone wanted to copy it. The problem is a vast majority of them are dogshit(including SV itself.)If they want RF to be more successful they need to add a bit more polish(RF5 was a huge blow to the series' reputation) and make the games cheaper if they want it to succeed on steam. $30 at the absolute most. Preferably $20. They can pull the typical jew tricks and sell some item packs for retards if they want.
>>738414501This looks way better than dolpin thank you!I'm sucking you sloppy style right now.
>>738401030fish don't wear shoes
>>738412014Series isn't very popular to start with and 5 did a lot of fandom damage.Azuma was a band-aid and we're waiting to see if 6 is medicine or a shot to the head.
>>738416014
>>738415834There's a mod to return the old voices, just so you know
>>738412014Because the series has slowed way the fuck down and we're currently in the waiting room. There were six games released between 2006 and 2013 then RF5 didn't happen until 2022 and it was underwhelming as fuck because of numerous performance issues and worse aesthetics than Frontier/ToD. RF3/RF4 threads were the golden era.
>>738416975>>738417607Is 5 really that bad? As in, the worst of the entire franchise?
>>738419491Nah it's overhated
>>738419491I enjoyed the game for the most part but it's definitely a stain on the series. Up until RF5 it was one of those series that progressively gets better and better as it goes on. 5 drops the ball in just about every way possible. It doesn't run at a consistent 60+ FPS even with performance patches, it looks worse than the 3D games made for inferior hardware 10 years before, the social aspects are a huge step back from RF4, the game balance is pretty bad(even on the hardest difficulty it's far too easy), the main area is big and empty for no reason... it's just not a properly directed game in any regard. I don't think it's a bad game but for fans of the series who got to enjoy progressive improvement it's pretty disappointing waiting nine years just to play such a mess.Thankfully Guardians of Azuma showed a lot of improvement so there's at least reason to believe 6 won't have any of the issues 5 had.
>>738419973>>738420110Thanks, guess I'll buy it when it's cheap
>>738394757I want to spoil Karina rotten. That is all.
>>738420517We have Karina at home
>>738416009I think SV is fine (if you mod it to not feel your progress is done after year one), but it did open the gates for a shit ton of shitty farming sims
>>738424731SV would be okay if it was a HM game but it's not. He decided to throw in combat to make it closer to RF but Mr. Ape has zero understanding of how game mechanics need to be changed to accommodate for that decision. For example in HM(and SV) when you eat food it stops time. The entire world around you freezes while you eat. This isn't a problem in a game purely about stamina management but when you throw in combat mechanics you need to adjust things. Eating food in RF involves thinking because the world around you doesn't stop. For some reason this doesn't happen in SV so the entire combat system involves zero risk because you realistically can not die when you're able to hold a stack of 999 healing items which stop time while you eat.Everything about combat is so shallow in SV that the game would have been better off removing it entirely and focusing on improving other aspects.
>>738425952Such fucking bullshit they cut her from Frontier
>>738412014They're pretty common so maybe anons don't want to spend all of their time in them.
>>738412014it mostly devolves into repeat waifuposting and if you're lucky once in a blue moon three posts will discuss the gameplay
>>738394757She's too cute.Every time I played that game I went in with the idea of ending with some other girl, but I always go with Pia.
>>738394757i dont like how they messed up the voices for the special version. they even nerfed raven from what i heard
>>738426626I mean, what doesn't?
>>738429756Lmao
>>738430446It just gets repetitive when it's a handful of waifu posts with the same pics. Need longer breaks between threads or more anons actually playing the game... to talk about the game
>>738394757Final Boss's monologue about humans and monsters is so confusing if you pick her.
>>738432556there are more monstergirl wives in rf3 besides pia
>>738432459But maybe the waifuposting is what will actually get people to play the games and talk about them, idk
>>738435054Being disingenuous only makes you look like a retard.
>>738435054I dont get the point of this
>>738426626there's gameplay?
>>738435381Disingenuous? But why anon? Please elaborate.>>738435769Neither do I, they should have stopped at RF4
>>738436491>Disingenuous? But why anon?I repeat: >>738435381
>>738436806>Calls anon disingenuous>Proceeds to behave disingenuouslyUh, ok then anon. If it makes you happy...
>literal "no u" responseGonna have to try harder than that. Step up your game.
>>738413839Do yourself a favor and choose the PS3 version. It just runs better.
>>738394757why did they add a fish supremacist?
>>738437686>Chapter 30That was ages ago wasn't it? Did they ever made another one with Dolce or are they mostly using Azuma characters?
>>738438961Nah, she never appeared again. Doing a quick count, the arc with RF1 characters was 25 pages, the arc with RF4 characters was around 15 pages, and now Woolio is in Azuma 45 pages in with no end in sight so far. The English translations aren't caught up yet either.
>>738440621I love her art
>>738442537I'm waiting for the results of that poll they did. Top five are gonna get new art from her.
Is Azuma good? I remember when it was announced, feels like a year ago but I know it was more than that.Never played Azuma so I hope it's ok. I know the pink chick is a bombshell and leagues ahead anyone, no?
>>738443345i found it to get pretty boring pretty fastgood graphics and waifus at the very leastthey "streamlined" the farming but then added a bunch of tedious management shit in its place. game is combat/exploration focused and it unironically feels like genshin impacttheres a billion recipes to craft all with pretty much no point
I kind of liked the fight gameplay of the RF3 and 4 games. Is that considered hack and slash or something? I really don't know what to call it.But just running into a zone, especially when you're under leveled, and trying to find a bunch of treasures and kiting enemies was kinda fun. Especially when you had your monster pet and wife helping.Getting knocked out sucked though because it basically cost you every single dime you had.
>>738443345I thought it was very fun, but you need to approach it as Tides 2.0 rather than a mainline game.It really needs a harder difficulty though.
>>738443345It's fun so long as you aren't expecting RF6. The spinoff games always have gimmicks.
>>738444156>It really needs a harder difficulty though.This was my biggest issue with the game. Even on hard mode it's too easy.

is 2 worth finishing? played it years ago and got to the part where you play as your kid but not much further than that
>>738443345It's okay. The gameplay is shallow, easy, and not that interesting, but if you're just there for the girls you'll probably be satisfied.
>>738441357Grim...
>>738443345It's better than RF5 and it's fun in some regards but I don't know if I would recommend it to everyone.I still prefer the old RF games like Frontier, Tides and RF 3.I really hope they will give us back an actual home you can upgrade for the MC and his upcoming family in RF6.
>>738432459I'm going to start another playthrough soon, but it'd feel like blog posting if I just talked about that
Fried, boiled or roasted squid?
Fun fact RF3 was the last good rune factory game.
>>738455340I don't really get 3 dicksucking It's good, but aside from being a bit wackier but shallower is completely outclassed Unless you mean Monica, who is indeed perfect.
>>738396971Let me marry nivea
>>7384568574 made the series for women.
>>738455079>playing a game and talking about it would feel like blogpostinggod damn it /v/ will do anything except talk about video games
i wish raven were real.
>>738455079
>>738461665Alright if the thread's still up when I get home I'll blogpost
I hope the next RF is not released on the Switch 1, it would just limit what they could achieve otherwise.
maybe the next rf should be sort of made in abyss like in that there's one fuckhuge dungeon the town is built near/around
>>738464562farmsim/rpg + made in abyss (or i guess etrian) is a winning combination if done correctly. Would heavily rely on good art direction though
>>738464562Just give me Frontier 2
>>738435054If you have good art you don't need better specs.
>>738456857He is mostly right though.I do like RF 4 and it has the best and most fun crafting system but overall it took the franchise in a different direction and it only got worse from there on.
>>738450632That's basically the start of the real game
>>738456857It's because on /v/ specifically, 3 is babby's first Rune Factory thanks to all the Rune Factory Generals back in the day (before /vg/ existed)
we LOVE rf3
>>738394757Been playing rf3 on my phone after playing rf4 previously, and its infuriating how difficult it is to just pick up things on the floor.
>>738470426Based. If RF3 had the same dev time as RF4 it would have been the best. The game was clearly rushed and had no post-game content.
i always loved rf1, which was why i was so excited about rff (also love flying whales due to link's awakening and saishuu shiken kujira)2 and 3 had much lamer main characters
