Story of Seasons

Lets have a harvest moon/story of seasons thread.

How far along are you in the latest game, Sup Forums?

>finishing up Ford's route
>orange event
>runs me through all his most recent projects
>a drug that makes you so happy you laugh until you die
>a drug that makes you so depressed you nearly kill yourself
>lastly a drug that forces you to spout out and act upon your deepest feelings
>he gave some to Brad
>Brad comes in the next day covered in bruises

>Ford mistakes the power for sugar and puts it in his coffee
>throws MC against the wall and starts groping her calling her a little tease

Well that escalated

Jesus, Ford.

Then he apologized for trying to "reproduce an act that should be saved for your consent"

Your options to respond to his behavior are "I'm happy" or "Hug him". Hug him and he starts making out with you to "collect data".

Ford is a dirty old man.

Is there anyway to move my cow from the basic barn to the bigger barn?

Yes you do it in animal notebook

Solid, thanks mate.
Also holy fuck this bigger barn is HUGE

And yet it only stores 3 more animals

And the worst part is it takes up one more square than 4 small barns would. The only advantage it has is less screen transitions.

>acts like a desensitized autist on the outside
>is actually a pervert that wanted to violate the MC the first day they met

Obligatory

Who will you be fugging?

Komari, the Fox is fine too

Waiting for DLC to breed with the fluffy tail.

Honestly, 1 coop and 2 large barns is all you need for all the animals and plenty of byproduct. Just get the byproduct amount for all your animals around 7-10 and then spam byproduct lv. and you're rolling in money.

Then the grind for finding all the mats for clothing begins.

They really needed to make Ludus look buffer in game. He's like a twig when he is supposed to be the obligatory bara handy man.

was for

>your hair is forcibly changed for the wedding
>can't choose your own outfit

For what purpose?

>a drug that makes you so depressed you nearly kill yourself

Imagine needing drugs for this. What a loser, haha.

What, does it become the default again?

The drug he made to counter depression caused laughing fits of near asphyxiation

Yes, but its still annoying to have short hair and then suddenly its long. At least they don't change your hair color.

Wow that sucks. The default male hairstyle without the hat looks pretty bad.

I WANT THE DLC NOW

We all do.
I'm going to have to do a NG+ game just for it.

...

>Looking at the wiki for girls before the game is out
>Oh shit is that some fluffy tail
>Sign me up for that
>Turns out there's no dating events and your child just kinda appears

At least it is fun interacting with her(him).
Especially for the dialog where she gets scared as you slowly approach her ears with wriggling fingers.

Marry and impregnate Kasumi.

Wonder how the dlc is going to play off when your parents come to visit in order to see your new wife/husband, if you marry Inari.

>YFW your parents meet Woofio

I hope they didn't half-ass it

Man, I really want a 3DS.
Too bad they still cost about 400 USD where I live. Shit sucks.

At least 3ds emulation is progressing, user.

Fall 13, I've finally abandoned shame and am now abusing the hot milk trick, and while I already have my waifu decided, I'm holding off on committing till I see all the girls events

>Hot Milk trick
What is this shameful act?

Iluka, not only is she a cute, Beach Vitex is ridiculously easy to get and Chai looks pretty easy too, though I still need to unlock it

Milk costs 240 to buy if you're playing seedling, cooking it then selling it as hot milk sells for like 280 if your cooking is good enough that your cooking automatically levels up half a star, so just buy as much milk as you can and sell it and you'll be drowning in money soon enough

>Komari already in the lead because ZR in design
>Then I learn she is tomboy waitress
>Then I see in the bachelorette preview you princess carry her during an event

No contest.
Time to buy out the entire stock of rice.

Not far at all seeing as it's not out in the EU.

Been considering playing Stardew but every portrait mod looks awful. I should probably just play RF4 instead.

I like her accent

It feels kinda silly giving her rice from the grocery store until she marries you, but I'll probably get that far until turtle soup unlocks.

I at least cook it into white rice, which isn't exactly much of a step up, but it's something.

Is it possible for crops to go above 5 star quality?
I've been growing Flax recently and they stopped stacking neatly when I harvest them now even though all of them are at 5 stars. As if they aren't of the same quality.

Seriously where the fuck do you get black lumber? I am winter 23 and have seen none

Ford a best

Which is better this one or sorry of seasons

>Starting year 2 and grinding llamas like crazy
>Try to feed my llamas Crispy treats
>Throw it all the way across the room
Please burn the guy who thought of this. Why can't you just place it on the ground like a proper mofo

You can rarely fish up the branches and sometimes find them in your fish traps.

It's better to rank Westown up to B, so you can buy the lumber from the vendor.

When do you get/how do you trigger llamas? I need llama cloth for muh clothes. I'm on year 2 and I can't buy them yet.

Get Lulukoko to least Rank B and Westown will start selling theme

ah that's it, thanks

Do you have their qualities maxed?

Flax only has the one and it says max on the bar. Even when I make seeds from the harvest they take up additional inventory slots.
I have to manually combine them.

>girl
>dress as boy
>dominate Yuzuki's tight bojpuqqi every day of the week

True bliss.

It seems like the japanese fans really liked it too from all of the ford fanart that I've seen. Good sign. Hopefully it inspires the creators to be a bit more risky with their characters.

Although it'll probably only end up being the male characters who get that treatment since girls eat that shit up and the girls will stay little moe princesses to appeal to the guys.

Well, so far, I only have the first two towns unlocked, but Iluka is the best of the three available to me.

You can also sell 70 brown Alpaca wool to unlock it but that would probably take about 2 years ingame time to do.

That is my plan.
Then I can properly get my fox hasubando

How do you level up crops? Is it just spamming fertilizers over and over?

yes
there's a way to add it to water later

Yes. Every fertilizer raises a different stat and only after repeated use will you see an increase. You're definitely not going to reach 5 stars in one season.

Plant crop -> Fertilizer -> Seed Maker -> repeat process

Should I even be bothering with fertilizer if I don't have the seed maker yet?

Nah.

reminder

HOLY FUCK HE HAS A PANCAKE HAT ON

You can, just save a few crops to turn into seeds later.

oh my god

PURE

...

I want to make Kasumi wear western clothes and live in a western home.

I want to suggest we hold hands to Kasumi

I want to make Kasumi wear cute pajamas.

You sick fuck

what kind of pajamas

Why is Siluka so boring?

because you have the homo in you

Loose pants and a simple top. A girl like her dressing very plainly only amplifies her cuteness.

Or perhaps a white robe. Fan artists really like that one.

how's the performance? last game was fun but almost unbearable with the fps drops

Fucking Phenomenal actually

A picture of Kasumi said white robe. I'm not sure why this caught on, but I'm not complaining.

It's much better this time. They put in the work to make it run good.
Your eyes will no longer hurt while hanging out on your farm.

And another.

Fox
or Ludus
or Ford

Candied Sweet Potato is so fucking OP and only 200g holy FUCK brad.

awesome - will be getting this for sure then

These NPCs cheat during the festivals I swear.

...

I can't stop seeing the hat from the opening movie as an UFO whenever it starts playing

This is a really good picture.

me too

That's why you save scum festivals.

She's pretty fun though,it's made clear in her events and some daily dialogue that she's not as dopey as she seems like during her reminiscing event with Ludus were she knew Iluka was listening the whole time and its hinted whenever guys try to mack on her she pranks them herself beforehand before Iluka can even get involved

How long do you think it will take for the dlc to come out? I'm thinking about just dropping the game until it comes out.

whose that salami tsunami on the right?

you

>kotatsu
I remember being so fucking intrigued when I found out that was a thing.

Probably somewhere near the fall/winter knowing the speed they work at.

Kotatsus are very comfortable. I don't know why a heated blanket table isn't more popular around the world.

I know I would never leave one. If you thought getting up in the morning on a chilly day was hard, then prepare yourself for top comf.

Kasumi or Ludus. I ain't fussy.

Just started playing the new beginning and I already have doubts about continuing thanks to shitty fps even on n3ds and the fact that you can't farm of even meet bachelorettes on the first day. Should I give it a chance or should I just drop it?

Are they fire hazards? It's one thing to keep it around your low ass table, it's another thing to sleep with it.
I think if I had a heated blanket I'd never leave bed.

...

A new beginning is a one of those games that gets good after X hours. The beginning is a chore and having to hoard items sucks, but if you can tough it out you can get a decent HM game out of it.
