As for exchanging lists of needed paintings and sculptures: I'm not against doing something like that, Sam, but I honestly don't know when I'm going to play the game next. It's been a week now, and I have no desire to check back in. I'll let you know if I do, though!thegaygamer.comhttp://www.thegaygamer.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-54450668713300340872014-01-09T20:52:52.388-08:002014-01-09T20:52:52.388-08:00I don't if this true but I heard villagers won...I don't if this true but I heard villagers won't move on days you don't play unless that were thinking about doing so the last time you played for at least six months. Also I think the stores don't randomize what they're selling until you start the game for the day.<br /><br /><br />If it weren't for the snow-people I probably wouldn't be playing every day. I also need to finish up my museum's art collection. If you want you could give me a list of the paintings/sculptures you need and I'll give you my list and I'll keep an eye out for what you need.Monster_Hunter2882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-57704874029165861452014-01-08T08:09:22.025-08:002014-01-08T08:09:22.025-08:00Ah, yes, Pokemon!

Yeah, my moving on from New Leaf has more to do with me wanting to play other games than it does with me disliking New Leaf in any way.<br /><br /><br />Also, it just starts bothering me at some point that I'm completely and utterly addicted to a particular game. It just feels ... wrong. I mean, I don't mind being addicted to a game for a month or two, but five or six is too much for me. So, I force myself to move on.thegaygamer.comhttp://www.thegaygamer.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-74927247731023072022014-01-08T08:04:31.812-08:002014-01-08T08:04:31.812-08:00Yeah, I would've expected overall difficulty a...Yeah, I would've expected overall difficulty and encounter rates, etc., to appear under "options" or something. Oh, well!<br /><br /><br />I've heard about that free villager exploit, too, but I also heard about it too late--and I had no interest in going back and starting over again. Plus, I have two NA 3DSes, so I've just been giving myself an extra villager each day. I'm up to seven now.

Putting config under tactics was an odd choice.<br /><br /><br />I ended up learning there was a way to get an extra villager and that you can exploit it to get several but you can only get the villager(s) before a certain point so I deleted the demo, Re-downloaded it, and fought the bosses on hard. I'm currently on the robot boss fight that's after the dragon.<br /><br /><br />As for the censorship I don't care to much since I'm probably not going to use said outfits and agree about the whole chibi character thing you mentioned but I still find censorship wrong (other than aging up the characters).Monster_Hunter2882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-90054554148997690072014-01-07T21:23:38.401-08:002014-01-07T21:23:38.401-08:00First of all, I just have to say I love that illus...First of all, I just have to say I love that illustration you included!

I only mentioned the part about the lack of characterization and story because I think some others--folks on the fence, esp.--might prefer a bit more "oomph" to the experience.

Ther...Actually I think the demo is perfect as is :)<br />There are no spoilers which is great!<br />In the actual game characters have their voice etc (tho I will admit I have switched to japanese voices).<br />The online features are kinda neat in the full game. You can "summon" friends. So basically a friend has to select Send during battle so that means your next action will get transmitted. I had a friend who had an attack power of over 400k LOL (they maxed out everything in the game). To break the 9999 limit you use SP during combat (1 SP regens every 8 hours in game that includes sleep, BUT not if you suspended or closed the game).<br />The village construction goes up to Level 11 and you get free items every few hours from it. All village items can be purchased thru the red merchant (the one that gives you a Save option). <br />I will agree that the demo does throw you into the deep end and initial combat can be gruesome, but if you can survive and level up a little bit you'll get past that.diaglyphhttp://diaglyph.igor.id.au/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-18454170623134992992014-01-07T13:06:55.686-08:002014-01-07T13:06:55.686-08:00Don't worry.

Also, there are little or no fetch quests in the full game--which, again, seems weird to me, given the focus on them in the demo. Anyway, I'm glad to hear you do, in fact, like the demo to some degree. There's hope for you yet, I guess ;)thegaygamer.comhttp://www.thegaygamer.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-584438905380815272014-01-07T08:19:02.954-08:002014-01-07T08:19:02.954-08:00I assume my complaining about Animal Crossing was ...I assume my complaining about Animal Crossing was why you wrote this, right?Obscure Video Gamesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-37175766696047006342014-01-07T08:17:55.456-08:002014-01-07T08:17:55.456-08:00Ha!

I'm kind of amazed you're even considering picking up the full retail game after reading your thoughts on the demo, though. <br /><br /><br />By the way, based on what I've been told, it seems the full game's actually quire different from the demo in a number of important ways. Apparently there are very few (if any) fetch quests in the full game--which is funny, since that's basically all the demo is! Rather, the full game seems to be a "typical" RPG in that it focuses on story, going from town to town, etc.<br /><br /><br />I can't say I agree with any of your other comments on the demo, but that's OK--they're your opinions, just as my thoughts on the game are my opinions.<br /><br /><br />Anyway, if you do end up getting the full game, I hope you enjoy it. There's little worse (in the gaming world, at least) than spending $40+ on a game that you end up hating.thegaygamer.comhttp://www.thegaygamer.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-15127573769003734182014-01-07T07:53:54.935-08:002014-01-07T07:53:54.935-08:00This is change we can believe in.This is change we can believe in.Obscure Video Gamesnoreply@blogger.com
