Fantasy Life i

I'm going to plough her fields if you catch my drift

y'all like corn? yes? ho ho, bingo!

just individually crafted a bunch of lumber so I could maximize my gain at the expense of time

strangeling locations

Alright, let's purify these bitches!

Think of all the excellents you're stacking that way for your quest progression!

i wasn't sure if i was being autistic by doing this
if you batch craft and get a good result, do you only get +1 to the overall amount instead of doubling your items?

ive been on the tutorial segment for hours grinding everything to apprentice like a fuckin idiot

If you get a Perfect, you get 4 times the amount if you individually craft. If you batch, it's only 2.5. It's up to you to decide if you want to sacrifice gains for time or time for gains.

you are not alone anon

what the fug that's such a huge loss
you might as well always individually craft if you're actually doing the damn craft because it's more exp too

forced cutscenes

just let me PLAY GOD DAMN IT LET ME KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL

How exactly does the gameplay loop work in this game?
Just done with the first area and I get a warning about leaving all these unfinished quests/professions
Are you supposed to clear everything in one go and move on or what exactly is the end game here?

You can come back. The warning is that you won't be back for a small period of time. You'll still be able to do the quests if you progress the story.

gameplay loop

we need someone to voice our character with self esteem issues

say no more

bocchi.png - 450x677, 157.2K

nah you come back very soon don't worry about it
get a combat life, miner woodcutter and angler then pay 10k dosh and unlock fast travel

post your characters

I also did that, I do recommend unlocking ginormosia first tho, it will make grinding a lot faster.

That's a child anon, you're going to make me cry. This is not correction. Uh oh you're doing it wrong. Sorry for bad englishtot

what is this game? is it some animal crossing shit or is there an actual story and end point to strive for?

it's an autistic grinding rpg with SOME ac elements tacked onto it

yes there is a story

There are no time limits or missables for anything in the game, that warning is just because the game will play some cutscenes and small story sections for you before giving you even more freedom to do whatever the fuck you want.

It's like FFXIV Job system, Runescape grinding, Animal Crossing island decoration and house decoration with a story and end game content.

file.png - 948x961, 611.05K

It really doesn't feel like Animal Crossing at all. Unless you count having a customizable island, but I wouldn't.

bocchi the alchemist

stay

It's like FFXIV Job system

I'm not sure about that. In FFXIV, you're not required to do multiple jobs.

I fucking hate the 'Life' system in this game and how annoying it is to switch classes often.
Other than that it's almost perfect

You're not required but you can. The crafters and gatherers in FFXIV play into each other just like in this game. You have Combat, Crafting, and Gathering Lives just like you have Combat, Crafting, and Gathering Jobs. I had maxed crafters and gatherers in XIV when I was subbed.

file.png - 246x349, 163.92K

where can i find

superior/amazing copper deposit

great iron deposit

fire mana

wdym it's annoying? try play the first game

For me, this game would be 10/10 if you didn't have to change Lifes at all, and get help from others to do things.

it literally auto switches for you

Rather than XIV, it’s more like bravely default in regards to job system

banaan cave
spirit road (down the well in lulab forest)
banaan cave again

By exploring. They're in a cave.

Runescape grinding

like "takes months to hit 99 in a skill" Runescape grinding?

I'm really surprised they didn't shove a dance into the game. That must have taken a lot of self restraint

inazuma_1.webm - 978x550, 240.48K

you can play like that though your buddies can craft for you

Back in my day we had to go to the guild to switch jobs manually

I wouldn't say that. I've played BD1 and Bravely Second. I beat BD1 with maxed everything and hitting damage cap but I never finished Bravely Second. I still think it's more like FFXIV.
No

anyone else having trouble with the boor bear boss not respawning in the cave of trials?
i need to kill one more to rank up my mercenary

file.png - 1920x1080, 1.15M

mod kit when? i want to make new classes.
cute, going to copy your character

no not-korok location information?

The ending was pretty great, especially that Dark Dragon theme. Kind of a massive disappointment for the credits theme, but I'm probably biased since the first game had a perfect one with I'll Hear the Sound of Happiness. I can only pray that the DLC gives us Rem as a companion too.

They're random spawns between multiple tiny bosses I'm pretty sure, just gotta reroll it a lot.

tasty fruit.jpg - 3840x2160, 1.26M

They can only craft whatever recipes you have. So if you don't do any of the other jobs, they can't craft whatever recipes you get from advancing in rank.

is rerolling done by leaving and reentering the area or saving and loading?

pick up time bps in ginormosia

???

profit

Ah, kids like you have it easy these days and still complain, in the old game you had to switch each life MANUALLY AT THE GUILD OFFICE.

use the ginormosia gate on your tablet to warp there and then use it again to warp back to where you used it from, it respawns everything, gathering too

Headbanging doesn't count? DEATH.

Are there English physical copies for the game? I can’t find info on it.

thanks

jp only

The core gameplay is MMO-style gathering/harvesting/crafting like in Runescape, the combat gameplay is ARPG with 4 classes (DPS, tank, rogue, mage).

thanks for the tip, unfortunately it doesnt seem to be working for this particular boss. havent has this issue with any other one, wonder if its bugged

When do you get your little celebration for completing a job? Is it when you reach master?

yes

That's neat and all, but what if you want things other than the time weapons?

interact with the life system like god intended then

Hold Y/triangle to skip, dipshit.

Scan the whole map each time and not just the start area with 3 boss enemies, you can see the names of enemies you've beaten before on there. Also try killing the bosses that spawned instead if you haven't already.
If that doesn't work he can spawn as a miniboss in the treasure trove dungeons I'm pretty sure.

thanks i'll give it a shot

can you roll mining skill on this?

implying nobody plays on Switch

Then whatever the nintendo button is for Y/triangle.

If I craft the life outfits, will they get stat boosts for the lives they are for?

do a shrine trial

combat

boss goes to edge of platform

game counts the boss as "gone", boss stays inactive for a few seconds, can't be damaged

boss is reset to the center with full HP

Out fucking skilled.

the plot is revealed

Evil McEvil's crash out was justified ngl

free DLC upcoming

nice

i wish i could see the specs of things to craft
is everything 2* just automatically worse than 3*?

notable top tier 2 stuff hard mogs basic tier 3 stuff for example

It's understandable, but not justified. They should have just burnt that village down and chilled with their dragon + birdwife forever.

How?

This game understands that cute pretty and easygoing girls are the ultimate reason for living

Sick I can make a tarutaru

I was worrying about having to make gear for my Buddies but then I realized that I could just give them the gear I get for getting Adept since its got no stats anyway

Can I have a foot-

NO KIKYO
YOU CAN'T HAVE A FOOT MASSAGE
YOU WILL NEVER HAVE A FOOT MASSAGE
STOP ASKING ME TO RUB YOUR FEET

How do I get good at fishing? My line always break with bosses

the final boss has a pretty cool design

he didn't bring 3 crafters for infinite sp

ngmi

use the sweet spot finder to find the sweet spots
charge light for buff, then spam charged heavy, ulting when meter is filled, charge light whenever your buff runs out

I replaced her with Meime because of this. I'm a tummyfag and I'm going to rub Rouge's tummy

Everyone is making cute girls so I made a cute boy instead.

If you're asking this after attempting your first boss fish, refrain from using normal casts and only used charged casts with SP on your gear or bring crafting buddies with at least 1 heart so they use SP pots

Uuuooohhh chibi femboy sex! Kissing chibi femboys!

Advancing the system clock forward a day. Backwards also works.

the ending is making me tear up a little bit, fuck

Looks like a girl (male) to me.

you might as well always individually craft if you're actually doing the damn craft because it's more exp too

Eh, being a higher level means future crafts will give less XP, if you're aiming for levels its better to do it all at once.

am i supposed to train all the lives(professions) to progress?

nyes

yes and no, there will be points in which every life has to be used to progress the story and if you want to most of the stuff the game has to offer then you need to use them, but you can also have your buddies craft stuff for you so you dont have to constantly focus on everything if you dont want too

Not really. You can brute force most of it, and the story doesn't need anything but 1 combat life.

Does paladin get to the point where you can kinda ungabunga and never die? Im kinda bad at the combat

i think the most fun way to play the game is to get all the gathering lives, pick a combat life and go crazy, pick up a crafting life if you want later and get some snazzy gear

Hunter is the best at unga bunga

11 hours in

wish we coulda saved him
aeshan is a near perfect mirror to yuelia and noelia, and i would've loved to see him in front of divinus
dlc perhaps?

it will be like 50 more before you can make it

is there a faster way to plant seeds besides 1 tile at a time?

anne is rem

holy fuck...

nope!

how'd she get reincarnated anyway?
and how could she and anne exist in the same time period?

I have a backlog...
I have a backlog...
I definitely have a backlog...

well at least harvesting is fast haha...

wibbly wobbly timey wimey bs, don't question it

icon show 1 mimic

it's actually 2 mimic

somehow they can't move

nice

mom is slow cooking something and needs me to stay up until 1am

When will I have full access to island customization. It's starting to feel like it won't be until the last chapter and then who gives a shit?

You guys are being dumb, anons. They are obviously not the same person, Anne is just the one who the Time Dragon was punished for helping. Her human form only looks like the girl she saved.

oh nice

depths b3 to unlock all hagram features

ah yes i am retarded, thanks

Alright fags let's get to the bottom of this

Did Level-5 go with the islands theme as an excuse to fill the game with chibi tummies?

fuckin' neat

uhhhhh
is this intentional or a bug

yes

In addition to you being a big fucking dummy, the game literally tells you this

file.png - 2560x1440, 1.84M

level and gear 14 classes and 50 companions and play 3 different world maps and customize your own island and collect mounts and crafting recipes

HOLY
FUCKING
KINOOOOOOOOOO

when your buddy gets the final tap on the node

see chibis

love chibi women

go outside

see wom*n

have to control urge to beat them to death

anyone else feel that way?

There's like a 90% chance they add some inazuma eleven characters as party members when that game comes out.

dumb question but for Excellent gathering, does it just matter how much damage the last hit does or is it like an overkill kind of thing where I need to get them as low as possible first? sometimes I dont get excellents consistently even if I do the former but there are damage rolls I guess

Just get the bar down low enough to the point that you know you'll get an excellent when you charge attack

Why did they make all the of the female companions so cute and bubbly and flirty? I’m gonna start actin up if these Japanese voice actors keep giggling and saying “~Nani?” In my ear

I think I'm somewhere in the midgame now and I can just power level Magician. Is Magician actually fun cause I wasnt having that much fun at the start...

recipe is 490

stats with buddies is over 700

still can't max out the recipe

fucking christ dude

why is iron ore the hardest thing to get? I can find silver out the ass
also did not expect the game to have an actually good roguelite dungeon crawler mode. definitely goty no doubt

Which is the lower tier Expert or Adept?

Don't forget food buffs too.

magician had the dumbfuck decision where they locked most of your group utility to higher ranks
you can actually buff and heal and nuke

it;s just overkill damage total
you can EXCELLENT from full hp without sweet spots if you whack hard enough

why is iron ore the hardest thing to get?

There's a whole ass cave of iron in Lulab forest and a shit load of iron ores in Ginormosia. What are you talking about? I haven't seen a single Silver mining spot yet

The farming was an afterthought right? there's no way they deliberately made them as bad as it is presented right now right?

When do the procedurally generated dungeons open up? I just got to faraway island to do the MQ to finish the robot stuff

why is iron ore the hardest thing to get?

GO DOWN THE WELL IN THE FOREST

hero > master > expert > adept > apprentice > fledgling > imp

Just buy it from your guild supplier in ch 3 . Cashmere is the real pain in the ass

SPIN MINI GAME HATE

once you get treasure groves after going through the depths

Thanks, had a bunch of points but didnt know which node to work toward first.

You can farm goats both in Lulab forest AND the northern part of Ginormosia. Are you niggas blind?

Do it counter-clockwise instead it still works

Anyone else played Xenoblade?
I feel like the island at night OST reminds me so much of XEnoblade. I spent hours and hours listening to these songs at night, I think it's because of the flutes

Anyway, cool OST

file.png - 818x699, 1018.6K

The daytime theme is fucking iconic it's playing in my head right now

Is there a romance system like in Stardew Valley?

It's about as fun as anything else, which is to say it isn't really that fun. You'll either think it looks cool and that's enough or simply enjoy when you hit multiple targets at once or time something right.

no, but you can raise affection for bonus skills

710527284

every single fucking thread

Was this game made by AI? It's like hundreds of hours of repeating mundane tasks and everything is procedural.

is there a snow area?

get to chapter 3 and you'll be able to romance anons by playing with them

craft 1 ingot at perfect

get 4x

craft 5 ingot at perfect

get 2x

are you fucking serious? I am honestly considering dropping this piece of crap over these kind of fucking design issues. Have some respect for the players time for gods sake.

anon you cant just say autism is ai generated!

+sleep arrow

guess who manage to inflict sleep status effect to level 40 napdragon twice

too tired to play extensive sessions

too awake to fall asleep

The food buffs are way too short man, should've been at 5 minutes minimum

I don’t have the romance option autism like that anon. But I'm telling you here and now that I will pleasure myself Uchida nee san’s character. HOLY SEXO

Should I play this or Sandrock?

god i still can't get over just how cute rem is

Same, I keep thinking about progressing and adventuring and getting some more party members

this

They literally made the Fantasy Life in that I want to stay in this world with Rem forever

It's literally not hard. What?

it's fucking jank and painful on a controller compared to the others

i wish the crafting minigames were more unique it gets a little exhausting doing them 5 times in a row, game is still based as hell tho

using a controller

owari da

I'm almost master in all crafting Lifes and have never used remake once

theres a ton of silver in yohoh cave

elemental trees and rocks spawn in ginormosia after ranking up enough

oh holy fuck this is a gamechanger

desu i don't mind the spin minigame on paper, i just wish that the indicator was more obvious instead of being yellow like the other yellow options because I've clicked instead of spun quite a few times.
the arrows should be a bright neon green or something...

it lets you pick from 2 new skills in addition to the 2 you already have so you can choose the best ones + you get exp again as if you made it
it's really good
you can use stickers and appliques when doing it as well to maximize skill chance odds

I was just having fun grinding the highest tier equipment repeatedly instead of rerolling, at least I could hand the copies down to crafter buddies, but as I was typing that I was turning in gear drops so the min-maxing starts now.

file.png - 315x92, 6.96K

so regarding the postgame edward told me to go speak to someone 1000 years in the past, who is it? cuz i tried rem and ranoah and nothing

do i just go around doing all the new requests on the islands and whatnot now

is there any reason not to destroy the wyrmheart?

idk how to even remake items, is it locked until later?

if you don't destroy it you have to fight a level 99 last boss (you can still fight the level 99 ver by talking to edward afterwards anyway)

it's a skill you unlock in your trees, top path

its a skill tree unlock

Haha I get it it means you're gonna have sex with her! Haha

Anon, w-what's sex?

U can shake your mouse in any direction for this to work btw

Cashmere is sold at the farm in Faraway Island.

Soulless

Why does it show a girl when I class swap? I'm a man dammit.

Anyone know when I can get/create wind wood lumber?

There’s silver in the shell cave at the beach area in ginormsia.

up your carpentry

Wind Tree is in Lulab forest.

Just in case you guys didn't know, you can get double the reward on your activities if you spam the 'Skip' button when you complete one

U a sexy man

need to change manually the party inside the guild

geez

You can do it at Skelegon too

oh sweet, thanks

so like X (to skip) and enter?

and in treasure groves
and you can warp to ginormosia via gate, fast travel to a tower, change your party and gate back to where you where to change in the middle of dungeons / literally anywhere else too

Anyone else imagining this guy's character and fucking him lol

How do you equip things to characters outside of your party? Someone said in a thread earlier but I was at work and forgot.

you can only do it for crafters

Late response but thank you for reminding me about the food. I was able to make what I needed to with them.

Everybody gets a happy ending :)
Except Skelegon's timeline's everybody, they kinda died horribly if that was Skelegon's Rem's ghost who said goodbye to him at the end...

Does giving your changlings better weapons also boost their crafting?

media consumption

productivity

gameplay loop

Yes

giving them better tools makes your crafters better and have more stats indirectly buffing you as well, yes

giving them better weapons for combat buddies is good too, and better armor helps everyone

Do I set these up in the art gallery to get rich or is there a better method?

file.png - 1165x645, 194.98K

Are you going to buy Level 5s next slow life open world rpg that comes out in 2 months? Instead of playing minigames to craft you play minigames to eat food or dance and instead of fighting monsters you seduce old ladies and beat up yakuza

Carla, Carla 2 Electric Boogaloo, Xernes and the Dark Dragon didn't get a happy ending.
Also the Mysterian folks evacuated prior to the Cog of Time falling after you told them what happens, they just lost their homeland and lived their lives elsewhere.
Skelegon is the only one who had his time stolen away.

slow life

This doesn't feel very slow at all. You have to master all the jobs, and all in the service of combat.

has anyone else noticed that granolah's (uhh the king guy that wants to fuck rem, you know him) quest gets reset after the credits roll and you can do it again?

you just sell those directly

that game's for shotacons. they got the girl fetishists on this game

i don't like football so no

yeah i noticed

If you want the final boss to be dark souls then don't destroy it

I dont think you know how many cute girls Inazuma actually has.

Where the fuck is the Bluescale Lordfish?
Info page says Depths B3, but there's only one boss fish there and it's not a Bluescale Lordfish at either day or night.

Bosses on that floor cycle so you have to clear the unwanted fish and see if the one you're looking for spawns 5 minutes after

cave of trials, B3

Oh god I'm a fucking idiot
It's cave of trials not depths

Anon....

got the sexy pillow from the paladin intro boss

I wanna just place it in my house but apparently it turns into a good party buddy

I've been playing the game for the past 20 hours without sleeping
Cut me some slack

This one actually dropped the ball on something the first one did really well.
So, in the first one, characters like your fellow life apprentices could actually join your party, and you could find people in the world you could recruit if you knew them. Same thing with a couple story characters like Yuelia and Damien. The fact I can't take Rem around with me makes me sad.
You also had to talk to NPCs throughout the world who had that life to unlock some life requests. Just even taking some requests from the life apprentices would have been nice, they literally serve no purpose.

if you max their affection they can give you their strangeling furniture to place as well

Apparently they give you their fetish forms when you max out affection, but it hasn't worked for me yet.

isn't that just from the sheer number of characters the series has?

i think paullette the artist is the only master who gives you requests as well, i wish the others did too

but it hasn't worked for me yet.

they have to run up to you and initiate a conversation on the island first which is kinda rng

I find it kinda generous honestly. I'm definitely not doing smooth circles and it's still going.

The fact I can't take Rem around with me makes me sad.

This should be the most obvious thing in the world and it bothered me she's not visibly following you when she should be
If enough people mention that they might do something about it in an update
EVERYONE LOVES REM CAPITALIZE ON HER

They randomly come up to you to give gifts. I have 4 people at max but only Cherry gave me her plush.

It looks like you get one strangeling gift per day. Also one emote per day

plushling in tropica that doesn't refer to himself in third person

what the FUCK

it's timegated? that would explain things

Yeah, the story and soundtrack are definitely the two things that this game doesn't do remotely as well as the first. The first game built the mechanics into the narrative with everything from Life Challenges to even the player home, which isn't really something you see in the sequel at all outside of maybe the Interfere Gear section. Obviously pretty much everything else is significantly better, thankfully.

this game looks sweet

What do hunter and paladin give as their hero passives? Mage gives SP regen and Merc gives SP reduction.

no, i only play farming game like RF, harvestella, and this one, probably will play 3ds ver too

Harvestella is underrated
I wish people had given it a chance

Yeah, I heard how it's supposed to work. They've been maxed for many hours now though, and I still haven't gotten anything but gifts and emotes from people I don't have much Affection with. My best guess is that because I have a request for one of them it kind of bottle necked the flag if that makes sense, a similar thing happens in RF5 where multiple events with the same trigger layer over each other.

Yeah, the story and soundtrack are definitely the two things that this game doesn't do remotely as well as the first.

The soundtrack in the first one was done by Nobuo Uematsu, so the music not being as good was a given. At least they remixed a lot of tracks from the first game.

soundtrack

I logged 500 hours in the first game but if I hear the Castele theme again I think I'm gonna scream. I doubt that's going to happen with this game outside of Hagram mode

The hero passive for angler is +10% special skill charge rate

You might be able to, the gear you get from the colosseum has crafting and gathering boosts.

The master ceremony music was composed by Nobuo Uematsu, were those taken from the first game or did he come on just for those tracks?

hm nyo I dont believe you

Alright Level 5, let me make one of your NECESSARY free updates clear for you.

add Rem and Edward as party members

Boom, that's it.

yea, sadly it's dead, i'll never forgive SE

Its main girl design is such a cocktease
Showing off the side of her tummy but no navel? All I need is just a a gust of wind dammit

How do status effects work for paladin? It only applies during the parry?

Holy shit that’s good

How do the boss fishes work? They're a billion times more difficult than anything else in the game so far (Adept) because the lines snaps within seconds if you don't immediately find the sweet spot again.

finally see a tower after walking along a path for a while

see that I skipped a zone AGAIN

kek

Can build diagonal bridges but can't build them above base elevation.....

i manage to fish boss fish after i get party member, and over level a bit

sex

You HAVE to use the sweet spot checking via X and only charge attacks. When the fish does a weird cycle where it's pulling harder, immediately use a regular pull to stop it from snapping the line (its sweet spot changes after this)

poison actually becomes kinda nice again in the late game
perhaps I've treated it too harshly

use the inspect move to find the sweet spot instead of spamming tug

also, you can move 3 ticks in either direction to find it

Spin is fine, fuck mashing.

just use macro?

You can't build bridges on half-ground, it has to be a full block.

really?

I almost softlocked myself in the beginning. I chose woodcutter as my first job and before taking the quest to collect palm logs I cut one of them down, so that tree didn't count towards my completion of the quest. And the trees wouldn't respawn after leaving the area or sleeping at the inn. I managed to find another tree later but that's dumb it wasn't based on the palm logs I had instead of the number counter after the quest started.

tfw I have to replace my high-level party member because I found a cuter one

lord stop giving me your toughest battles

Just fish and your new party member is caught up

forager king set from the coliseum
comes with +25 gathering ability total and 5 sp (lmao) on the cape also has like 40 more defences over the master rank sets

Ah shit I thought lenja sounded like the bocch. They actually had yoppi play her. The madlads.

poison deals about as much as arrows on some really tanky bosses

i see

not only is their no romance but the characters get married to each other

cuckold game

does not matter because there's no romance

little girl

what a pedo

They didn't though
She got sacrificed in a ritual by cultists

he's been shitposting about this all day

lmaoooooooooooooooooooooooo

What's supposed to be half-ground here? The camera angle is a little deceptive but it's all aligned to the grid properly

you can also put it on npcs to get their stats up over 600 so they can clear shit for you. i got master farmer and i still don't have 600 farming, but Pino got it easily

i can't see cuz the hands are in the way but are they on full square blocks
cuz if you have corners missing like pic rel you can't place on them

Does it only go to level 55? That's kinda low.

no, it goes even higher, that 55 one is just the expert exam and gives that reward
there's higher tiers above this with even better stuff

When you chop out half the ground diagonally with the terraforming tool to make an angle.
I'm also not 100% sure you can place bridges or inclines on the very edge of the map.

Lmao even

the daily challenges are level 80

The post-champion arena fights are absurd.

:(

yeah. the refight at 80 was the first fight i actually gave up on and went and gathered some consumables. not because i couldn't do it but it was taking a long ass time to chip him down

Are bounties still a thing if FLi? Still on tutorial island, but was surprised when I killed the boss corn monster outside the capital area that it didn't drop anything interesting.

Boss drops are RNG

Sweet. I hope I get a mini Frajeel cosplay set for it all.

They took the sovl out of bounties, you no longer have to drag the corpse to a bounty person and get some sovlful dialog, you just kill them and they may drop something. Functionally the same but less... sovl.

Looks all square to me chief
In fact if I try to place it outside Hagram the guide stays at the right elevation, but in Hagram mode it just auto-snaps to the base level
I think this is just a no-go

file.png - 1051x775, 1.31M

another +25 crafting from the next one
jeez this fights are actually starting to get a bit challenging, they have massive hp pools, it's fun

Oh, I didn't even realize, but I see the problem.
Those red squares all have to be the same elevation.

Damn, that's disappointing. I liked dragging the bounty train across the land and protecting it from damage to get my reward.

Ohhhh shit
Well now I just found out you can build water at higher elevations so time to get to work

does the game intend for you to manually grind materials like healweed/fleece/animal hide instead of buying in bulk from the material shop?
and if so, is there any efficient way to farm a lot of them?

It's obvious kind of once you try and build a set of stairs, because one line is higher than the other four

where is the tim crook costume

It doesn't exist
It was just an april fool's day joke at Nintendo's expense

Is the 3ds game still worth playing or is that obsolete now with this release?

Just drive by kill shit. As soon as you overlevel a little bit enemies die in few hits.
Run and mash pickup for weed

This is a sequel, not an enhanced version or port
The 3DS game is still worth playing

go to the 'go see the race' event

turtle never moves

hare dies anyway and finishes the event

well alright then

yeah but even then I get like 500 weed an hour only
I can buy 999 for a relatively low amount of money

level 40 merc

swap to my paladin who is adept still at level 20 to try fighting this level 50 boss for fun

at least I finally see, I'm rushing to ctach him up right now to be my 'main'

I notice a trend among monsters.

if it flies, it's harder to paralyze

if it uses poison, it's harder to poison

if it's a ghost, it's harder to sleep

start playing

Already 7 hours passed

So this is why it's called the girl that steals time

MUSCLE

damn, that might have been the best fight in the game so far honestly
combat can be quite fun when an enemy is aggressive and doesn't immediately fold like a wet noodle

Is this just for their tools, or does equipping them in armor and shit matter if they are crafters?

I just buy, every once in awhile I will sell all the excess tools you collect from drops, you get so many.

Post-muscledude arena fights are even more chaotic
I hope you like fighting three level 80 bosses all at once

finally from frajeel, the hero set
it has WAY fucking higher def than the master merc set and a lot more mdef too and comes with +30hp on everything and +5 sp on the scarf - nothing too special about the specials but the raw stats are nice

Im assuming the dlc will add the south island that you can see covered in clouds.

I hate that the cheapest and easiest source of magic ore is buying 8000 dosh stones from the guild hall, plopping them down on your island and smashing them to bits.

Rem's personal hero set is the reward

Now I'm motivated.

what does it want me to use?
I don't see anything called mystic punishment on the skill tree.

SEX with CUNA

Holy kek I'm fighting him right now and poison is chipping *1000* hp from him
I deal 100 damage per arrow

Can I be unemployed in this game just like irl

Yes
But it's not particularly useful to be unemployed unless you worked yourself to death for all the other jobs' passives first

Just give it to me straight. The game is actually a good sequel to the 3ds game?
Is there enough content?

Yes.
Loads.

it's better in every way imo
as for content i finally beat the main story like a few hours ago and i STILL have a shitload of postgame content to do like maxing out lives, my buddies affection, troves to max out buddies, i still need to craft ultimate gear, i still need rank 7 ginormosia
i'm probably going to need another 50-100+ for all that

Look at the size of his acorns!

kek

The game is actually a good sequel to the 3ds game?

Yeah. I think the story is worse, but everything else is as good or better. If you even kind of enjoyed the 3DS title you'll love this.

Is there enough content?

There's enough to compare to base game in the 3DS, but not Origin Island I think. Many hours at least.

Unbelievable. Who would have thought? Guess I'll give it a try.

I'm not sure if you can really do a full run unemployed. You could pick a job then immediately switch back, but I think the game might force you to do some stuff for your chosen job before continuing.

Where do I get Sheep King's Fleece?

rank 5 west greatgut plains, a gold/red crown boss legendary woolie might spawn at night

Thanks
Jesus leveling these areas takes forever

do ya like da grindan game?

honestly once you get to rank 3-4 and legendary area challenges start popping up for 1k points it starts speeding up

It goes to 80 I think, Championship’s at 70 and there’s at least two more matches after that.

To anyone who cares:
If you get a "watch the race" objective
You can just murder the rabbit as a shortcut

What if they added an extra guest follower slot for characters like Rem who don't have a specific job and aren't combat-oriented but can still follow you around and cheer you on and support you

i'd LOVE that

Does it serve the combat in any way? If not, it probably won't happen.

there r 2 eye catalogs tho

They could throw SP balls
Plus do signatures serve the combat in any way? There's lots of stuff in this game that's just there for flavor

that's what I always did.
what are you MEANT to do?

nigga that's nuts

sit there and watch til they finish the race

oh he's there at all times actually

Alright, I'm tapping out of the arena at level 55 with a 277 bow. I simply can't do enough damage to the level 80 quetzal. Poison immunity gets built up and it Iiterally outregens me.

does your island only show so many buddies at one time?

277 bow

You're not dealing enough with that? I thought everybody said that Hunter was the meta dps combat Life? That boss and the next rank is really easy with, funnily enough, a 270 Staff.

real chads DRAGON CLAW for 10k+ damage crits

Dudes use the multiplayer even with randos it shortens the grind

Real chads use Brand New and kill everything with a stick

I think so. I've got 44 of them, but only a handful seem to appear on the island at once. If all of them appeared, the whole place would be crowded.

next rank

there is a lvl 90 rank as well?
jfc

Amorey is cute CUTE

i figured. do you know if theres a way to 'refresh' to pool? i tried leaving and coming back but its still the same few.

So how's your village coming along? I've burned through like 50k dosh just moving shit around.

AREA CHALLENGE

go see the race

beat the dragon at level 40 anyways because merc somehow can deal enough damage through self buffing and food that every hit deals 100 to 200 damage until he's downed and then does 300-400.

It was a long fight but it felt very satisfying to crack him despite Edward giving THREE warnings to find his weakness before fighting.

kill rabbit in 2 secs

easiest points of my life

farms that far away from the guild

ngmi

wait you can do that?

yes

see

I'm a soulless automaton, so default flatlands with some farms by the guild.

so is this game essentially AC but with actual gameplay/jobs beyond picking up turnips?

the only thing in common with ac it has is island and house decorating, outside of that it's a full fledged rpg with a strong focus on gear crafting, resource gathering and level increasing

maybe it's cuz it's light element
I'm also only expert

It's single-player Runescape with Animal Crossing on the side.

so is this game essentially AC

No. It's much different.

Noooooo.... Not like this....

file.png - 2560x1440, 2.05M

Okay, I'm saved

file.png - 2560x1440, 2.06M

so it's better than AC then, I like how there are a bunch of distinct jobs and things to do: AC is fine but that's mainly about building relationships and so on.

They just different types of games.

start up capture device to record the master rank celebration

capture device image looks more yellow, TV looks brighter and more white

oh no, my capture device is fucked... or is it my TV that's too bright?

yeah, it looks really interesting and people say the gameplay loop is pretty addictive, it looks pretty fun desu. does each job have its own level?

does each job have its own level?

yes

Does the hot part of the desert ever stop being too hot to walk on without a mount?

So did they massively change the story from the reveal trailer years ago? I wonder what was the reason for the change

no

is there item storage? my inventory is getting extremely cluttered

God bless that autist artist that did nothing but draw Yuelia non-stop.

you didn't beat the game

my guild board thingy says i need to turn 50 strangelings normal, but i got all 49

what gives

unless there's another one at the end of the golden flowers, but that'll be literally 2 weeks from now if i keep getting them at 3-4 a day

:^)

Hue hue hue

It's probably the party member from the golden flowers, yeah, which is confusing since the one you get isn't a Strangeling at all.

how bad is the first set of fights against frajeel
cause i was getting my ass kicked in in the early game and i wanna level blacksmith to expert so i can make my own gold armor

hopefully you've been leveling some combat buddies. the level 80 version i had to use attrition and alot of dosh worth of consumables

Same, I don't care about that stuff so I just dumped random items on the overworld to get the upgrades

i mean in the story, when you get glenn's strangeling

The story fight is calibrated to the story. It's fine.
The one at arena champion rating is no joke though

It's multiplayer actually. You can't do story shit together but you can co-op the roguelite dungeons and also ginormosia.

It's single-player. The multiplayer is clearly an afterthought.

Where's the bow of time recipe?

I have played almost 75% of my total gametime in multiplayer. It definitely could be better but it's not like you needed much brainpower to slam through the story in a few hours. It's also fun to craft things for your friends.

How many story chapters are there? Ive read there are 7 but im already in chapter 5 and it feels like the game barely just started.

About what level are people actually doing multiplayer at?
Or is it one of those 'only active players are the autists at endgame'

Is there a bigbeak in a shrine? I need its eggs and it never fucking drops them in dungeons

Search, nigga, search!!!!

Seven.

i wish there was a wiki that would just tell me

You gotta look, nigga!!!!!

I did multiplayer from 20 onwards. It doesn't matter for the roguelike dungeon thing because it caps your stats depending on the depth of the dungeon. I've admitedly only played with friends, but we helped level our buddy when he literally just got to multiplayer while we were 50. It helps a lot especially for some of the early crafting jobs since you can just idle as an alchemist or w/e and have a buddy dumpster some level 40+ mobs and easily jump to 20-30 in the crafting profession to help start you off.

Then wtf is the point of the monsters and materials that are on the hot spots?

Wow it feels way shorter than the first games story then. not that i play it for the story anyway so i don't mind.

Also my #1 advice for people struggling to find ore/monsters/items for gathering rank progression is to run treasure groves. They have virtually all resources and enemies in fairly plentiful amounts and all count toward completion.

Anon...

Just wait for the sun to go down

lmao actually that doesn't work idk

get to expert carpenter

just so happen to have just enough materials from wherever to make the tiled chest/cabinet

use up all my turns and barely scrape by, even with a food buff

get rewarded with 30,000 EXP each for my efforts

same attack

same materials

ugh? why?

5200 characters

what the fuck? is this pokemon or something? how did they even... what?!
