Rune Factory 4 Special

The third live promotional event just happened confirming some speculation about RF4S that we had heard beforehand
>You can't marry Venti
>But she has her own fully voiced side story along with the other marriagables
>It's paid DLC on top of the game

It also showed off grouping up with the Native Dragons, thankfully no slowdowns. I'll be posting some of the art from the broadcast

What the chances of us getting them for free for limited time?

Ok not as bad as some made out to be.
I'm still picking it up

Who knows I'm waiting for the Dual Audio news before buying the game. No JP voice no buy!

What the fuck is the point if Venti is not actually bachelorette in the the game? I

And last is some Wooly plush, I think they're raffling out 10 of 'em to those who retweet some thing on their Twitter as another promo for the game
Don't expect baka gaijin to be eligable

That's a shit deal. I say no fucking way sir

M-Miku?

Time to pirate it.

It's free if you download on launch In JP what's wrong with that?

In the previous stream they said that for story reasons she can't really move from her spot that much so you can't have events like the other partners.

Who’s the surgeon?

I want to play this game series and I have a Switch but it feels weird buying this knowing the next is in development. I don’t think I’d buy twice unless 5 was a few years off. Especially with DLC. I should just wait for 5 right?

>what's wrong with that?
The fact that they're porting it over Switch and had the gall to call it Special meant it's a better version of RF4 3DS, but so far there's no new content, no new dungeons, same old MILF blue balling, there's no point in buying this game unless they charge it below 2000 yen.

If you have the time and money, why not buy this one first so you'll see if the series is your cup of tea earlier?

>Day 1 DLC straight out of the ass
>Can't even romance Venti
Fucking hell, just when I thought RF is back, the developer pulls cancerous shit like this. Day 1 DLC from you means Day 1 pirate for me then.

I'm torn. On one hand, I really like RF4. It was cool, sank about 50 hours into it easily. On the other, I kinda think that the "endgame" (or at least everything that happens after a certain plot point) is just tedious dungeon grinding. Plus I just think the farming in general is underutilized.
I still might buy this, but also I don't see a huge reason to jump on this over the 3DS version

The Venti DLC is free, at least for Japan

DLC better be free for the west, I'd assume we get new content with SPECIAL. Like what the fuck? I love RF, but marvelous please.

It's a great game and the fact that you have never played any RF game means RF4 Special is meant for you. Get this one and enjoy.

5 is at least a year away from this. These games used to come out yearly before the hiatus so just pretend it's business as usual.

I couldn't blame Marvelous, they were recovering from getting buttfucked by Sony's mobile game developer company.

>Can't fuck the dragon

In my opinion, if you have the 3DS version there's no real big need to pick up Special. That's at the moment, they haven't revealed any additional added content as far as I know other than the DLC and you can just watch that shit on youtube

>can't fuck the dragon
Good I expected she was actually a decent character for how much shilling she gets here but she is fucking boring as hell

According to the Japanese Eshop they are selling this game for $50. Seems kind of steep for a 6 year old 3ds game that also has paid DLC.

>Start playing RF4
>Find out the dragon is actually the cutest girl
>Look up way to marry her
>You can't
>Keep playing through thinking she'll at least transform into her human form at some point in the story
>She doesn't
>Find out later a remake's coming
>Finally, I'll be able to marry the dragon

Ok!

It wouldn't be a problem if they had removed that shitty RNG events system.

Wait for the inevitable RF3 remastered because there is no way they aren't going to try to milk the franchise for all its worth at this point.

>can't bang dragon
>STILL can't bang milfs
What the fuck is even the point?

What do you mean?

>$50
I mean 20 or 30 would have been fine but 50? That's literally the price of a brand new game and not some HD version of a 3DS game from 7 years ago, I even think the 3DS game was cheaper when it was brand new
I doubt they need the money so why?

$50?! What the hell are they smoking thinking they can sell a 3DS port like that? Do they think they're Capcom or something now?

This has always pissed me off. Especially when some of the bachlorettes in the RF series are way older than the milfs due to non-human shenanigans

>still can't be gay in this game

Why even bother...?

Can't have used goods. They wouldn't even sell at a clearance sale.

"muh dragon" and "muh milf" faggots are the fucking worst and I hope you swear off the franchise forever so I won't have to deal with you anymore.

Because that's the price for all Switch carts of that size. Never mind that RF4 has more content than most games period,

what's the appeal of dragon girls?

>Series barely survives
>Given a last go
>B-BUT MUH SCALIE FETISH PIRATE BOYCOTT!
More proof that dick first thinking faggots kills good series.

People want what they can't have

>Series barely survives
The series was the only profitable thing Neverland did, it was literally everything else that killed them

And now fetishfags is trying their hardest to bury it for good because it doesn't pander to them.

It's a 3DS port. What size can it possibly be to sell at $50 when there are currently games being sold physically at $30-$40.

>fetish
It's literally just because of the twintail loli human form.

>People make a meme out of slopes and Banjo
>Nintendo adds slopes and banjo

>People make a meme out of Mighty and classic Sonic
>Sega adds Mighty and classic Sonic

>People make a meme out of dating the dragon
>"Sorry you can't date the dragon"

Sorry I can't buy your game.

This. All I want is to be pounded by Kross or Brodrik from Frontier as qt twink farmer

Frankly, if they want me to buy this port they'd better add more shit than paid extra cutscenes. I've got this game on 3DS already, and honestly even if I didn't I have Stardew Valley and Terreria on Vita, both of which I feel are better games in the end.
I am legit pumped for RF5 though

>rune factory 3 had 0 short haired girls (the tomboy had a huge ponytail)
>Rune factory 4 had 1 short haired girl, who from what I heard gets long hair if you marry her
As a short hair fag, this series does nothing for me when it comes to cute girls

>re-release of a 3DS game
>add dlc
slimy cunts

just pirate it, like you pirate every switch game.
you do pirate switch games right?

It's just voiced side stories, I mean just watch 'em on youtube or something. Also the Vanti one seems to be free

I cracked it for the sole purpose of being able to play games like rune factory undubbed.

>You can't marry Venti

>Literal upscale of the 3DS game
>Weird low-poly models and low res environment on a 720p/1080p screen
>The new bonus stuff is just an audio recording
>You have to pay for each additional audio recording
I wasn't feeling like getting it but this just reinforces my frugality. Time to wait on RF5.

IIRC, Sony has a division that makes mobile games that some people outsource to. But they're so fucking shit at it, they just killed the company NIS with their absolute failure on the Disgaea mobage.

>RF5 info in July
So what do you think we're going to get?
I imagine we will probably get protagonist designs and maybe a look at one heroine and hero.

>You have to pay for each additional audio recording
It's 700 yen for all of them together.

I don't care to marry her, but it is shamefully silly that they can't be assed to make at least her and a new guy for bonus bachelors at least for a long ass wait leading to a "Special" that isn't very special. It's like they completely forgot characters like Harvest Goddess were possible despite the story.

Brief gameplay, protag and 1 bachelor/bachelorette is what I expect

Can't recall Harvest Goddess or other divine/special chars being marriable besides that one semi villainess and debatably the witch from the earliest RFs

What the fuck is the obsession marrying Venti? Is Yea Forums just full of furries or did I really miss something in this game? She was a friend in game and I think it's implied that she might like you, but she's also a big ugly old dragon. I seriously don't get it. I'd rather be able to get with the milfs/older girls instead of fucking Venti.

Why people are sperging about drama disks that get dumped on youtube soon or later?

I know the harvest goddess was marry-able in the GBA game

You can marry her in DS. If you count Witch Princess, she's an option quite a few times.

She has a cute human form

Why does new content cost extra?

Painfully generic even compared to the bachelorettes that you can marry

They paid a bunch of popular Seiyuu a bunch of money to record more than just one liners
Considering that Rune Factory bankrupt them before, they're investing in milking the hardcore fanbase rather than pandering to the masses

>It's paid DLC on top of the game
suprisedblinkingincredulousman.gif

I'm not even angry about this paid DLC, but isn't this... dumb? Like, if the new DLC was a new waifu or a new... section of the town let's say, then yeah obviously people will buy it. But this is stuff you can literally read on a wiki article, and fans will have posted the English transcripts long before the game releases here
Basically, it just seems stupid all around

Not to mention most of the bachelor/bachelorette were pretty boring. Other than Dolce and maybe 1-2 others, RF4 had one of the most boring selection of love interests. It's why a lot of people latched onto marrying Venti, she was way more interesting than everyone else.

Can I fug the dragon yet?

>Not to mention most of the bachelor/bachelorette were pretty boring.
Hey fuck off, Dol-
>Other than Dolce
...Agreed

What's a voice drama??

Usually it's the voice actor reading a short story involving their character, or it's told from a first-person PoV

Oh I see, thanks for the clarification. It doesn't really sound like a good deal for the game unless you're really into the characters.

That seems to be the consensus among the fans, yup. You can easily just watch them on youtube or something anyhow

WHY CAN'T THERE BE ANY TITTY MONSTERS IN THESE GAMES AAAAAAAAAAA

Sure you're not thinking of harvest moon?

Of course he is and so is anyone else who mentioned her. There is no Harvest Goddess in the RF series. The point is that a divine being can be a marriage candidate if they want her to.

There was no Rune Factory game on the GBA, so what do you think genius

I don't remember the entire series history. Sue me.
