is it bad that i find edward cute?

I'm not going to pretend Trips helmet doesn't look stupid

it was designed after chemmel, so it looking stupid is intentional

He's literally a fucking dodo, he looks stupid even without the helmet

Had a blast with the 3DS one, sadly soloed the whole game. Pretty fun regardless.
Looking forward to playing this one too, not right now though. kinda pricey where I live.

unfuck the camera

let me equip buddy gear without having to change the party formation

Okay for an actual non-meme answer I think a pretty fun Level-5 thing to do would be to patch in more camera verticality in Ginomorsia, alongside a new gameplay mechanic where you look up at the sky in certain places at night to discover constellations

chinese

No

Proper weaponary for big boy warriors.
Hammers, maces, axes or at least spears.

It's great, isn't it?

I just want more actual content and some QOL stuff

still no default controller prompts texture swap mod

still no better vertical camera mod

I've never been bothered by pawn chatter in Dragon's Dogma, but

Got a sec?

C'mon, buddy, show me what you've got!

every 2 seconds are getting pretty ridiculous. I really hope they'll add an option to adjust frequency of these.

how would you guys go about this? i'm a hero miner with about 700 mining so i don't think i need to bring miner buddies but i could bring one just to smooth it out

was thinking combat (probably a paladin to tank for me as i'm a magician), a miner and maybe a fisher or farmer

what the FUCK do you think the v in Anon Babble stands for huh
ALSO for video games, it's the same fucking board as Anon Babble just with longer threads

people don't use this place to talk about games, they use it as a political soapbox that is only vaguely about videogames so they have an excuse to try to radicalize social outcasts and loners who use this board

game certainly has part of the DD DNA. They basically took the area rank from DDON for the open world section.

too much chatter

I set the voices volume to 0 and don't miss them one bit

Anon Babble is in a weird place where for everything but the most overwhelmingly popular shit like mihoyo or fortnite, it's a containment for the people who couldn't come to grips with the community on Anon Babble dissipating after their game's honeymoon and made it a part of their identity

Don't acknowledge it.
Its just one shitposter autist looking to make things go offtopic.
And you retards keep giving him fuel

They really decided to just try to make the most addictive game possible didn't they.

u gotta do a lot of runs of the dungeons to get the materials you need to for end game crafts
especially if you want to make gear for different lifes

I suspect a good chunk of this may be remnants of when Inafune planned to make a gacha.

i really like this stupid fucking hat

Cute molestable shota

up to you, but I think level-5 deserves it this time

is there any hebe i can marry in this game?

when's the tutorial supposed to end? I think I'm about to unlock the farmer life, but at this point I think I'd rather start just doing my own thing.

I'm fairly certain she's half-potato from how much that old man loves vegetables

she got fat eating all his veggies

He loves naming his vegetables so maybe she's a sentient potato

I feel like it's probably not in the game, sadly.

How in the FUCK?

Odd question but is there a certain artstyle outside of the typical Level 5 artstyle you'd like to see your Lifer drawn in? Asking for art reps reasons, I might draw a few.

i'd like to see mine in a disgaea style - you know the ones done by takehito harada?

game has animal crossing and bloodborne chalice dungeons

what the fuck doesnt this game have

invent your own Life concept

some strangelings are rng drops

interesting... i thought they were guaranteed from certain bosses

beastmaster - uses spears and can tame wild monsters with 2 types, combat pets that help you fight and resource pets (like the woolies and whatnot) you can gather from

Idle Imp (Combat)
You're so lazy that you can't even attack anymore and instead use your buttons to direct your party in fights.

What's the crafting like in this game? Can you show me your houses or whatever? Steam reviews say this game is like Zelda+RPG Lite+Animal Crossing+Crafting
Also it's 60€, 70€ for the deluxe edition. Is it worth? The steam page barely tells you what you get, they mention some pre-order bonus but it's too late for that.

Assassin
You have a short ranged dagger and use poison
Your R skill is an aura like the mage that prevents enemies from aggro'ing
Attacking non-aggro enemies deals bonus damage

Stop responding to it you fucknig tards

Crafting gameplay is a QTE mini game

what's the hardest content to do in the game

Deluxe is a set of dragon themed equipment and a few character-based outfits.

Rogue! Shank niggas! Steal shit! Commit crimes!

Bastard anon got me with my own favorite game

Maybe a giftcode.

there's hundreds of decorative objects you make, and you can craft all your tools and gear and armor and whatnot, as well as for your buddies

the deluxe version is just some extra cosmetics iirc

ignore my shitty room i haven't really been doing all that much deco work, i've been so busy doing everything else

I haven't even been in my room since I built it.

Anon Babbleros this games been throwing new gameplay features at me for 35 hours now when does it end

anyone have the shark hat/outfit? I feel like I saw somebody post it a few days ago

Mechanist
You can build robots to give extra boosts in combat/crafting and build guns and vehicles as mounts.

master fishing/mining/woodcutting/mercenary/, artist, and woodcutting

all without doing the ginormosia content

can't master blacksmithing because nothing in the past drops fire claws

This is BULLSHIT. I wanted to master all the lives before I touch the open world endgame stuff.

'tism post

thanks bwo

Mechanic. A crafting class that makes machines and electronics.

it's just your own custom companion that also doubles as mount

She looks like her tummy is ticklish

That is just not happening. Some of the jobs require shit from the treasure trove dungeons.

Thanks how did you know?
Well I'll get as far as I can at least. Currently grinding B4 of the last story zone at level 35 to get as many quests done as I can to master mage and paladin.

Why are these weapons marked as quests/progression even though I made the one on the right already? They're not listed anywhere in the Life goals either.

combat

Trickster: dresses like a jester, lays traps, turns invisible and puts decoys, can be useful when dealing with many enemies

gathering

bug collector, has a colorful outfit with antennas and goofy bug eyes to attract insects, uses nets and the like to catch all sorts of bugs for...I don't know ingredients for other resources or something, maybe you can sell them to collectors too

crafting

well I had the idea of a toy maker and jeweler but don't know how they would be of practical use

Most likely because it uses bronze ingots which is a requirement for a challenge

Personala request you picked up from an NPC maybe?

This is probably it, but it's weird, why would it mark things that require bronze ingots when the bronze ingots themselves are the challenge requirement?
Nah, I already did every request I could find.

Save me anons.... does it exist in the game....

why would it mark things that require bronze ingots when the bronze ingots themselves are the challenge requirement?

no they're not
the requirement isn't "make 10 bronze ingots" it's "use 10 bronze ingots in recipes"

people seem to misread that quest all the time but its specifically making things WITH bronze ingots not making bronze ingots

A plushie cat(male) is fine too................

1 more day until our 3 day weekend burgerbros.

Toy Maker

Tailor and Carpenter, depending on the material

Jeweler

Alchemist already makes accessories
Plus bugs as a collectable already exist, you just run up and grab them with your bare hands.

these and the engineer idea form the last thread makes it clear that a technological themed life would be cool

Already been doing it

mfw the ore mining trial

wait a sec... these are materials I can't get yet in the story...

wait a sec, my GRINDAN has given me so much fucking Gathering even without the Miner strangeling that I can do this

WAIT A SEC, THERE'S TECHNICALLY A FOREVER RESPAWNING GOLEMSTONE AND SUPERIOR MAGIC ORE/GOLD ORE VEIN WITH EACH ATTEMPT

"I gotta ladyboner harder dan steel for dat stuff!"

ah shit, can I try again for these classes?

... wat
nigga you can switch your Life to any other Life whenever you feel like
just gotta do the initial quest and get to Fledgling for 'em

Where the FUCK are all the Staffs

Been ignoring the main quest (only unlocked second isle) and delving into Ginomersia exploring and bossing and leveling areas to get stronger stuff than my current tier in the story. I have multiple wind/fire/earth/water merc/pally/hunter weapons but no staffs (I even got a dark sword from a wind god superboss) yet I'm still rocking an oak rod.

no I meant make new concepts

when I said I wanted to date cute Bois, THIS WASN'T WHAT I MEANT

Ohhh, my bad. Yeah that was it.

these opening cutscenes

kino… FUCKING KINO!

......... wat?
"Can I try making my concept again on this message board"
newfag-kun, why are you asking for permission

change NF1.exe to EAClauncher.exe to disable EAC

game launches without EAC

game save is gone

panic revert everything

game save is back

jesus christ I just had a heart attack. Whats went wrong here? also need to back up my game

kino is just current EPIC SO EPIC EPIC FOR THE WIN lmao

I am kidding man I was gonna do it anyway
give me a second

j-j-just kidding

you weren't, but it's all good

Steam saves are stored in a different folder. If you launch the game through steam proper it loads that one.

it did have a bunch of literally whos streaming it, so parasocial fags with FOMO are flocking to it
Level 5 deserves the monies tho

thanks amigo

if you wanna make some staves yourself, they're under carpentry.

There's not much room for new Lives unless you want to get REALLY specific, outside of stuff like the aforementioned beastmaster and mechanic. I think the best way to expand it would be to introduce Service Lives where the idea is to provide a service to other characters. The original had cut Lives that could fall into that category, like Merchant, Mailman, and Fortune Teller.

It’s just THAT superior to everything else in the last few months

is it just me or does the sweet spot search for angler kinda suck? at the very least it doesn't seem to work the same as the other sweet spot searches.

go to the 4 cardinal ends and use it

each one gives a ?

turns out the sweet spot is in the upper left

I genuinely was but yeah all good
how about these?

crafting

trap master: regardless if the Trickster class exists or not, the idea of someone to craft traps that can be used by other Lives could be useful
be it to trap animals or beasts or what have you

gathering

lightning collector, ok I pulled this shit out of my ass because just like anon said the Lives already cover most shit, so every now and then storms come and lightning can hit areas, this guy's job is to predict where using magical goggles or something and put a "jar" there that collects the lightning

the collected lightning can be used to power the mechanic/engineer's machines or to magically boost anything in progress

Killed the same level 40 mimic in a cave 2 times for 2 stranges.

Level-5 is incapable of making a good game that sells well in modern times so clearly this is some kind of criminal activity

its a living animal for it makes sense

fish sweet spots

are we fucking the fish?

wood and metal are split into 4 quarters for regular nodes, 6ths for boss ones and fish i'm pretty sure are split into 8ths

Guys if i edit my character from a boring dude to a cute tomboy, am i trans?
I just want to look at cute girls

stop being retarded

does enjoying looking at cute girls make me mentally ill

no retard, just do it

There is nothing more righteous in life than the pursuit of cute tomboys

yes

Why would you buy something that was bought using stolen credit cards instead on just pirating

You're thinking a little TOO out of the box
that sounds like super special donut steel level fanfiction-tier Life
AND MY SUPER COOL BADASS GUY WITH A SCAR OVER ONE EYE YEAH HE COLLECTS -LIGHTNING- IN BOTTLES TO POWER SUPER KEWL EQUIPMENT MADE BY ENGINEERS
Think -past- that, why is JUST lightning
what does the Life bring to the table
elemental - e.g. Mana, Shards and Log gathering - is used in slightly higher-tier recipes, so on the low end it doesn't have the feel of a Life that could be something just anyone could do
it's ultimately too unique, try again

Ironically, it is thanks to trans inclusivity that you have the option to change your character from a dude to a tomboy. That said, don't worry about it. You're free to swap back whenever you want, and your character's appearance doesn't alter gameplay, so just make whatever looks nice to you in the moment.

Hammers, maces, axes or at least spears.

One of these things is not like the others one of these things is gay

Yeah, maces are for faggots

I actually imagined him as a nerd who likes catching storms, I was just trying to make something whimsical to fit the game like ha ha lighting in a bottle joke lol
and the mechanist life was already thought of before hand and not just by me
that being said I get what you mean

it's because of trans inclusivity that gender change options exist when it's all about flexibility in designs and just being able to change it to whatever

retard-kun...............................
you'd honestly have the barest shred MORE of a point had you mentioned the Mysterious body type but even that isn't because of "le trannies xD"

In the sense that they are for hitting them? I agree. Is that why you're afraid of them?

Afraid of faggots? No, simply disgusted.

No, the maces. The maces that are for hitting you.

have to go wage in 20 minutes

yes

they put a gacha in the game?

Don't neglect your real Life for your Fantasy one(s)!

you can use leftover celestia flowers to buy crates that can give you food items, materials, decorations ect
entirely optional ofc

this was me, i ended up buying it and am starting over. my birthday is coming up next week so it's an early gift even though i can't afford it. keep being cool

I’m almost free but have to life(real) a couple hours before I can life(fantasy)

yes but thats okay, its your fantasy life

oh nice no real life money but ingame stuff cool

5 hours of work in the morning before I can get drunk while doing some comfy grindan

finishing waging in 20 minutes

literally just need to clock out but everyone in the office is watching

aaiieeee

what kind of capacity does this have for modding

level 5 games have gacha but its xenoblade 2 style where its just an ingame mechanic

When you increase the rank of a region do treasure chests get refilled?
I haven't tested it but I feel like they should otherwise you wouldn't want to open them at all until later ranks

yOU.png - 460x484, 55.03K

come back to me when it's a top seller for a month

even if you succeed in a trial you can step on the circle to start it again anyway, ginormia lets you access almost every resources (except depths only ones) as soon as u can get there

Please kill yourself, ranjesh

finally got my first bug

clear out turtortoise town

do all 3 requests in a row

get old man anchor as a reward from the 3rd quest but his strangeling intro doesn't play

can't talk to him or anything

fly back to town and he's properly in my inventory, but still, missed his intro

its split into 4 quadrants but the cardinal directions don't count as either one, so you can't get a sweet spot when it lines up directly on it for regular fish, idk why, its retarded.
just go 1 left or right of the cardinal directions and try there, and repeat for the others just 1 off in the same 1 off as the first time. will work the same as mining and woodcutting that way.

so how do elements work. i know dark and light are opposed, but how do fire, water, earth and wind interact? is fire and water opposed and earth and wind?

I don't know what engine it's on or if EAC will kill modding, but provided there aren't a lot of hurdles like that, I figure it would be relatively easy for people to add custom furniture or NPCs within the existing framework.
A real ambitious project would be something like adding romance (would require custom scripting)

do any other buddies get a busted-ass heal like Jerry

Merchant. From any gathering Life you can get some extra loot that needs appraisal, then you can sell them at random people/shops via a haggling minigame

hilda

Considering that the Gathering/Crafting Life Buddies can attack with their tools, I feel like for Fantasy Life I, not having the option for the player to stay on their Gathering/Crafting Life in combat is a missed opportunity. It's been ages since I played the one on the 3DS, but I feel like that one didn't have the Combat Life auto-switch thing (though non-combat Lifes in previous versions were much weaker and literally made out of paper compared to the ones here)

Make it a crafting Life, but the "recipes" are whatever you want to sell and the finished product is money.

The sleepy pillow mage has an aoe heal

where do you find jerry, I got hilda randomly lol

Can you kill gods in this game? I only like games where I start out as nothing and I end up killing gods

whats the most energy efficient way to work? only charged attacks?
is the find weakspot skill really worth the energy when on regular resources you can just search for it by hitting and deplete its hp at the same time?
does the excellent bonus rely on how much "overkill" damage the last hit does, or just how much damage?

Where do i find a good lumberjack?
Getting Mining machine dude from story and now a second random miner makes it so strong.
Yet no lumberjack party members yet.

is the find weakspot skill really worth the energy when on regular resources you can just search for it by hitting and deplete its hp at the same time?

it only takes like 2 uses to find a weakspot if you use it properly so it's faster and more efficient than walking and hitting

your strongest attack you have access to is your most efficient option but you will want to use charged lights to get a gathering buff when you unlock the skill for it then spam charged heavies

it's based on total damage dealt overkill yeah, you can overkill from 100% if you smack something hard enough

ginormosia shrines

fun game

in the 3ds game no matter the life you were playing as you were forced to use either the weapons from the combat lifes or fight unarmed

Le mercenary with le big sword.

Who was this made for?

I'm still mostly bringing Crafting Buddies on my adventures to max out their Affection (1 random Combat + 2 Crafting of same profession if possible), but for Gathering Buddies, do their hits trigger the 'Sweet Spot Change' thing for 'boss' trees/ores?

not really no

Me I like all the weapons I just started merc since it had the best starting fit

thanks man

i switch between them just so i can have some variety

Mercenary can feel clumsy to use but they put out big dick damage and stuns enemies pretty consistently for the SP cost, not to mention their special attack which is most likely the first time most players manage to deal 4 digit damage in a single hit

I 100%ed the 3DS game. Pirating this shit rn. It better be as good as I'm seeing.

where the FUCK are flying fish specifically on tropica island
all i keep getting is kissyfish, angelfish, bream, pufferfish

I don't understand the progression of this game. The story is so strict yet it tosses all this shit at you that you can seemingly willingly explore and do things in (at least as far as your gear can let you), but I can't really tell WHEN to be doing things.
Like WHEN the FUCK should I actually start exploring Ginormosia?

They couldn't have given the mercenary a big hammer or axe? Come on. Get in some variety.

Like WHEN the FUCK should I actually start exploring Ginormosia?

when you want?

Like WHEN the FUCK should I actually start exploring Ginormosia?

whenever you want more buddies
get 2 for crafting each thing asap imo

If I just wanna explore and dungeon dive is this game worth it? I'm not opposed to farming and building but I wanna do fun stuff first to get hooked then the boring stuff as a cooldown.

As soon as you want to. Preferably though when you're allowed to return to the Past so that you can meet the Masters again for class progression. Otherwise you could be like me who who had already hit Adept on most classes that is possible to do so by that time, cleared most of the Shiny Poops and grinded enough to bring all areas in Ginormosia to Area Rank 3 (with a few places at Area Rank 4) before I even set foot on Faraway Island.

The earliest you are free to explore ?Ginormosia at will is from the moment you progress enough that you get the 'Go to Skelegon' main story quest, before you can even activate the other towers and thus have to explore in total map darkness

Ginormosia keeps throwing tailor and carpenter buddies at me but is being very fucking stingy about blacksmith and alchemy buddies.

silver rimmed chests respawn on a timer, gold rimmed chests are static and never respawn, they always have the same look regardless of rank

how the hell do you do anything in ginormosia's desert sections if you just take constant damage all the time? do i need to make cool drinks like it's monster hunter or something?

How do you take pictures without the HUD?

I'll do anything anons, anything you want if you show me evidence that it exists in the game and how to get it. I'll do anything.

You have to shelf all the eggs
Gold Chests can actually rarely spawn from nodes/monsters
I had one drop from a Great Haniwa

Straight white men with a lot of testosterone

all these thirsty furfags this desperate for it

lmao

You mean men with so little testosterone that they can't lift anything heavier than a sword?

incels who will never get with a woman and cry about it while alone*
fix'd, the life song never lies

Jerry's heal is insane
I like colins aoe lighting with paralysis, he just stuns bosses for like 4-5 seconds every 10-15 seconds, which is crazy
laura has really good aoe damage but I think there might be better paladins than her, haven't tried too many of them

Laura's special does a lot of damage but is 'slow' because she does the jump into the air and flourishes her sword before the aoe hits. By then most of the time whatever she's using it on is dead or not in her hit zone anymore.

If you want a Combat Buddy with good aoe, consider the Mercenary Idol of Ice, Snow

Laura is nice because she seems to get the bosses aggro and tank, shes pretty good for just sitting there and never dying vs bosses.
Which is why I would rather another paladin than her since I already have a lot of aoe

miner master song

YUH YUH YUH CHECK IT OUT

my fucking sides, this entire thing is amazing

Laura also paralyzes enemies constantly.

I kept thinking I could find great gold deposit outside of the cave of trials before I unlocked the cave of trials but I think I just randomly came across it in the tree dungeon. Wasted so many hours trying.
Still though, master in mining.

file.png - 1060x953, 335.95K

Could consider getting Hilda instead then. She's a Paladin and so will actively run up to facetank stuff, but she also uses an aoe heal that 'hits' multiple times while the heal circle is up. This means she can also heal your other buddies though your other buddies won't run into her circle by themselves; instead if someone goes to like 60% HP or so Hilda will run to them and use the aoe heal (including you)

Here's the ideal way to find sweet spots for you brainlets who can't into logical reasoning

Start at gathering point.
Tap with axe/pickaxe
If sweet spot, cool, otherwise:
Rotate 90 degrees ish in one direction
Press Square to use sweet spot skill
If sweet spot, cool, otherwise:
If (?), then that means the sweet spot is another 90 degrees in the same direction you rotated.
If (...), then that means the sweet spot is 180 degrees (directly across) from you.

basically, in one axe tap and one use of the sweetspot skill max, you'll always figure out where it is. Might take more for the super huge boss ones, but it should still help in principle much more than trying to identify the spot through brute force. Makes gathering much faster, helps especially in timed shrine challenges.

btw if you have double digit hours of gameplay and didn't intuitively figure this out, you might be sub-100 IQ.

LITTLE TOM.png - 348x496, 300.59K

SIXTY DOLLARS FOR THIS??

yeah I would rather her stay fighting the boss, jerry running up and healing while staying out of danger is why I like him as a healer
ideally I want a paladin who will sit on the boss and do some solid damage while staying alive and keep attention

laura seems to fit this best so far as she kind of just sits there, goes invuln for ages while she casts her spell, and wont die to smaller mobs swarming her due to the aoe.
surely there is a better paladin but out of the 3 I have tried laura has been the best by far

if you put a shield on her that paralyzes them yeah, otherwise, not naturally.

I just open with the Sweet Spot skill because if I go '...' then I already know where the Sweet Spot is. It's not like SP is so important that you need to conserve it by tapping it with your axe/pickaxe/rod instead. If you have Gathering Buddies, they also won't start hitting the tree/ore until you deal damage to it either, so you can take your time to position yourself properly. It also means 1 less hit before boss trees/ores/fish do the Sweet Spot changing thing.

Are slates recipes just random Edgelord furniture and the legendary weapons you can find in dungeons or is there actual cool shit top?

It's practically a "forever game" that you can burn dozens of hours into, with you being able to play both in singleplayer and multiplayer.

o shit then he's random, thank you anon

Laura being in invul is purely because of how special attacks work - you also are invul while using a special attack. The same actually applies if you're using a charged attack as well actually, so you can abuse this with say Mercenary's Heavy Swing to make sure enemies are right in your face before you spin to win, or as a Magician lining up your enemies before letting off a charged attack in their face.

yeah ik
which is why the longer cast time isn't really a downside for what I like her for.

I abuse my own iframes on charge moves all the time, a lot of the fights have started to require it when there is so much constant large aoe being thrown down

if you open with it, and it is the sweet spot, you could've just known instead by axe-tapping directly. with your method it's two button presses even in the best case scenario.
and if it goes (?) instead then that means your sweet spot is either left OR right, and you will have to rotate one of the two ways and check again.
nothing wrong with starting with the sweet spot skill, better than bruteforcing, but it's still theoretically suboptimal

looks more fun than AC

"forever game"

what do you mean?

That it's a number go up game.

even after beating the main story, exploring all of ginormosia, and getting 5 stars on your town,
you can always run more of the randomly generated dungeons, rank up the remaining world areas, or make your town look even prettier like it's Animal Crossing
Forever

chibi chad

Lots of your characters are actually very fuckable, take it as a compliment

It's the same shit, except on elites you're wasting one hit.

Are there any good rewards from the coliseum or is it just food all the way through?

what's the difference between sleep and paralysis in this game?

That shield's actually busted with how it synergizes. Paralyze turns Laura into an immovable object—combine that with her AoE aura and mobs just melt around her while she tanks the boss. It’s honestly kinda gross when you throw regen enchants on top. I’ve seen some people swap in the reflective plate too for extra cheese, but it’s situational.

Why are elves always evil?

I'm still stuck on the first missions. some fag wants a tool with "good". I made like 5 of them but nothing was the right one, even the higher tiers. what am I missing?

fail mushroom challenge

game crashes

I DIDN'T THINK THE STAKES WERE THAT HIGH

This was debunked, Auntie lusts for BMC

sleep wears off after 1 hit but gives bonus damage on that hit

Man I'm just constaly surprised when I find new shit.

"good" is the quality, you need to finish with a certain amount of turns remaining to make it.
if you can't do it even with perfect excellents, try levelling up or upgrading your crafting tool.

Constantly*

fine and notable does mean the same thing as good

each item can be good great and TOP (the best) as well as fine / notable whatever

basically you need to get nonstop excellents and finish the minigame in as few turns as possible to get better quality items

mount drops was a great addition

Ehh it's alright. Exploration is pretty good, dungeons aren't that long though.

wonder if there will be a dlc with time traveling to the future with modern Lives, you can now play as an accountant!

crafting quality is based on how fast you kill the minigame, it's independent from item quality like Fine or Notable. if you finish it with "4 left" or 5 in the top right you'll get Good or Great.
it's actually easier to get Good on lower tier, non-Fine etc. items because their crafting requirement is lower so you fill up the meter faster if your stat is high

sleep wears off after 1 hit

really? I feel like I've wailed on monsters and they've stayed asleep

thanks, lads. gonna retry after leveling a bit

do you get your own house in this game? can you decorate your town?

imagine the smell

There's probably still people who haven't gotten all the strangelings form the chests still.

file.png - 1362x756, 1.14M

i think it might just be because monsters have a long-ass wake up animation where they stil can't do anything
though i haven't fucked with statuses at all myself, i'm just going off what the game says and what i've seen from naturally sleeping monster (i.e. when it's nighttime)

This, might give it a try

HOLY

God I Love Cooking

if you didn't know you can swap your party mid dungeon

swap.jpg - 1658x1026, 210.43K

yes and yes
you can build bridges, place furniture outside, terraform your island etc. like AC New Horizons

oh neat, i guess this saves you from being fucked and unable to gather things if you're solo lifing

literally who

kill yourself lol

well that sounds cool as fuck
I understand the combat is really simple but does it get boring or tedious at some point? I don't need a super complex system but something like rune factory at least (I only played rf4 and I had a blast)

how do I make money, help

i have diagnosed autism for what it's worth but while being simple i still find the combat fun even after 50 hours, it's just satisfying to nuke things with DRAGON CLAWS
and even if you do get tired you can swap lives on the fly, switch it up by being a parryGOD paladin, a shotgun hunter, or a wizard too

How do I get more recipes? All I can make are eggs

raise your cooking rank
buy recipes from town restaurants and other food sellers

whore yourself out to plushlings

Get a life

you are the eggs-man
it is your egg-cellent destiny

you have to make all the eggs

i feel like getting tool object crafting on your tools pretty much removes at least 1 entire turn cycle when crafting which can be the difference between getting a perfect or not

Where are my Paladins?

Check the peak. It hit 34k yesterday. Today it hit 45k and we aren't even in the weekend yet. We can aim higher.

3 buff dudes cheering me on while i bludgeon a turtle

damn how talented are these lil bastards? They can do anything from farming and fishing to blacksmithing and woodcutting and fighting and even alchemizing
be it a tedious job or a laborious physical one or a mental one they can do it all at the same time and implied even more not in the game, fucking hell and I thought the animal crossing player characters were polymaths kek

Wait a fucking minute I haven't even done the Colosseum yet!

Anyone know where the save file is located on the steam version?

Is paladin good this time around or does it fall off again?

Steamuserdatayour steam user id 2993780remote

no one really knows about the absolutely tip-top extreme endgame shit yet, much less what'll be the case if there's Origin Island-esque DLC, maybe with even more Skill Board or anything like that
Paladin can shit special skills because they gain meter on Perfect Blocks though

Am I just getting unlucky or do I have to do something, my first 3 random dungeons have all been woodcutting.

Thanks!

unlucky, mine was fish then monsters

I beat the 3DS game + DLC
This one is fucking boring so far

so what's the mining and chopping trees for? you can fish too right?

cool, me too
you're in the minority with that opinion though

to gather resources to craft with
yes, to cook with (great buffs)

there's blacksmithing, carpentry, and cooking
what do you think mining, woodcutting and fishing would be for?

For... metal(metal-related goods and accessories or furniture) and wood(wood-related goods and accessories and the majority of furniture)
rare fishies have important materials required for the best fishing rods, and they make for good eats

I love that frickin guy

Can anyone list the number of ways can get recipes? Also being able to buy materials feels weird its like its cutting the weird runescapey task system where X needs Y that needs Z

this game is mad addicting

I think you're mad addicting

I just did my first online dungeon at 30 hours in and it was more fun than I thought

CRAFTERS REGEN YOUR SP??? I THOUGHT THEY WERE FUCKING USELESS

Should I unlock all of the lifes before "starting" the story or whatever, or just worry about the gathering ones at first?

damn i am getting some good rolls today

when you gather crafters sit on the side, give you a gathering buff, debuff the resource and throw basically infinite sp pots at you when you get low on sp

they heal you too

get your starting combat class, miner angler and fisher then do the story until you pay off 10k dosh and unlock dragon flight for fast travel then you can just take it easy doing whatever

Go home and eat your dinner, young man. >:^(

About 6 hours in, trying to get every Life around 10 before getting on the Bone Dragon. Is Salt just a later item because I can't find it in vendors and have solved the food side quests so far with just buying them.

think for a second that this was a localization joke lampooning some cross between Krauser-san and Yngwie Malmsteen

realize that the music is guitar shredding and no, it's in the original script

these guys...

Blacksmith here FYI

You can get Salt at the capital's restaurant shop in the materials tab, iirc.
They also sell Flan, which is a bit expensive but the only way you're getting +Gathering food early.

shrine levels in macromastia are aribtrary to the zone they're in

very cool.

Man, the charged attack is a real game changer for Gathering Lives. I recommend picking it up as soon as you can.

Yokai Watch 3 had mulder and skully and the twin peaks red room

well yeah, it's basically necessary
you're not gonna get an Excellent finisher on Rare material nodes without it or your Special Skill

Thanks! I must have blinded it when looking earlier.

enter shrine

it's a gathering skill check

my boner rises

Do we ever get a bigger base camp? And the ability to fill in water?

I honestly love the humor in this game, it's so charming

Is there any reason I should have anyone thats not a crafter ever on my party then? And how do I choose who to bring? Or do they all give the same buffs?

Crafters are very strong for general use.
The only thing they suck at is living compared to combat lifes but they actually fight with unique attacks and spam bombs too.

Thank you kindly, just got him.

they suck at is living compared to combat lifes

What? As in they die quickly in combat?

thanks lads
I think I'm going to give in and buy the game

Is that the ice statue guy?

So does ranking up Ginormosia zones give you better drop rates for rare mats like the elder logs or whatever?

yeah you can see the ratings on the screen where you choose its level

join an online dungeon

hunter zipping around at mach 5

get a bunch of levels in different stats just following people around

Damn

the farmer master song is a big band jazz love song towards princess vegetables

absolute cinema

is dash spamming as hunter the fastest way to get around aside from a mount?

I switched from hunter main to merc because I liked knocking down all the mobs for the mage/hunter aoes in online

nyo, depths b3

yeah they kinda get killed fast but they do run around and res each other so they STILL make for good distractions while you focus dps

game about life

no romance

I mean fits the target audience but come on

i'm a pumpkin now

it's this guy

made for smashing with a hammer

want to progress in the main quest

also want to grind up crafters so I can see number go bigger

help

I have most lives at lv40-50, what's a good recipe to make some dosh?

PSA You should rank up an area at least twice before you start opening chests there I assume chests are tied to area rank and I assume they don't respawn

Is all the SP buffs per Life just for that one or do they stack?

nyo

That sucks. The area is very small.

has anyone beaten the champion rank colosseum fights?
I did the first one but all the ones I got after that, the double dragons and triple golems have absolutely destroyed me
they are so tanky, hit so hard, and with multiple bosses you just get swamped in aoe
is there actually another tier after this as it suggests?

per life
you only get like 1 universal cross live buff at HERO rank

that iron deposit in the lost woods

fuck that, where's an easier spot to get some?

terassa farm material merchant
spirit cave down the well in the lulab forest

there's a well in the second half of the woods (in between the leafe village and the great deku tree) that has a well that leads to a cave with like 50 iron deposits
it's not really any easier to get to but it at least has more shit

Spirit road, or explore Gigantopia some more

file.png - 1370x902, 690.71K

This might be a retarded question but I found some new strangelings for the first time (after the mandatory one) and I have no idea how to turn them human.

a well that leads to a well that leads to a cave

a well that leads to a cave*
derp

talk to the goddess statue at your base

rape them

statue north of your home base

this game has SO MUCH to do

They die quickly but it's due to the lack of HP more than anything else.

Did you guys pace out your Humongorsia exploration or did you finish most or all of it at once?
How much did you try to rank up each area?

any codes yet?

there are some datamined codes that will get you banned from online for using, so be careful.

im guessing you learn more recipes through experience and buying them at various shops?

normally enjoy decorating my house in games like this

haven't touched it or really decorated my village beyond the bare minimum because I might unlock shit that I want to customize with it later

AHHHHHHHHHH

thanks, gonna wait then

literally same

AHHHHHHH

I only want to really start when all the trash is gone, it's my autism

buying them yes, experience no
you get a bunch from ranking your crafting classes up, blacksmith and carpenter (and alchemist) in particular get access to higher-tier tools and weapons

they come from those boxes the monkey at your base camp sells for flowers

I like Corm.

Does item drop+ skills on gear improve seed drop chances
I don't want to constantly have to rebuy seeds

i got to the point where i needed to collect the 7 chaos emeralds in the story, then i went around and unlocked all the shrines and eye towers, but i AM going to properly rank them all up...eventually

That's what I thought but I can't interact with her. The two strangelings are in my inventory, I doublechecked it.

I got some slates and got edward to translate them and got recipes but idk how to actually do shadow crafting? they don't show up on the regular craft bench

or am I just retarded?

progress the story some more

completely forget what i was doing when i come back

she got mindfucked so bad she started clapping

Sup bros, just started playing. Any way to get this fuckass bird to stop following me? It’s ruining muh immersion.

i wish the chibis in this game had knockers like that...

Wait is it serious? I can only get thick shells from the treasure groves and a random merchant in the open world area?

did you check marco's stock at the guild?

chibi are not for lewd

If it's there I've probably not advanced them far enough for it to be an option but I'll give it a shot.

Can you do it with friends? I picked it up for the coop

yes

marco doesn't sell any tier 5 stuff
ever

you need to get your lifes up to make the end game gear, and yeah, do treasure groves for rare materials for stuff beyond the basic tier 5 gear
some of them require ginormia tier 6 instead of treasure groves instead.
I assume there will be another tier of treasure grove stuff and tier 9 ginormia materials, but the tier 9 ginormia materials might be for the sacred upgrade of the legendary items only

And another saddle for me.

file.png - 1853x1067, 1.97M

Aren't thick shells tier 4?

That's steel shell, and its for the 1 chest piece, its a drop from the turtle on the island area, appears in a chest, and some other stuff.

Thick shell is tier 5
I think you get some from running the castle? in chests, somewhere.
you need it for the tier 5 arcane armor blacksmith set

How long does it take to unlock coop?

Then what the fuck is it doing on some tier 4 armor?

file.png - 1397x808, 530.31K

zoomer faggot doesnt know vinesauce

eceleb board btw

Notice how its just the 1 for 1 chest piece
arcane armor requires 2 per piece
the few you get from chests is enough so you can make the beastly chest piece, notice master blacksmith doesn't require a full set of beastly but just 5 pieces of gear made from monster hide, its for that reason so if you don't find the thick shell in a chest you aren't locked having to do treasure groves just to get to master.
but you do need to do more for end game gear

Should I master everything at this stage I'm at the arena

ah.. so artist is the money laundering skill and wasn't just a joke from another anon

I found some in the treasure grove off an enemy that drops them.
And tier 3 too.
