Previous Thread:

first for eggs

(last thread literally died right before I could send my post to save the thread)

At least you tried.

Same here, chose my pic, did my captcha, boom, thread archived. And normally it takes twice as long for us to archive so something must be up (besides a few DOA threads hogging slots, anyway).

Can you run a shop in RF3 or is that just a 4 thing?

There's an event where you run the shop, but I don't think you get your own.

...

Just started RF1 today, got every tool and unlocked the first cave. Any tips I should know about before continuing on? Played RF3 and 4 but know very little about 1 or 2.

You need to be careful that one cave accessible only during the winter since there's no recall spell and overstaying into spring means you're stuck there until winter comes again.

Night /XSFG, here's hoping the thread doesn't get murderized during the night

When am I allowed to start dating people in RF4? Do they need to be at ten LP?
Best bump I've got.

I heard that it actually crashes the game if you're inside and it changes from winter to spring

They need to be at 7fp or higher. Then they might take your confession seriously.

protip from the user formerly known as "no doug for you": Best time to ask is when the LP goes up a level (from 7 to 8, 8 to 9, 10 to 11, etc). Savescumming and asking right when that happens gives the highest chance of an accepted confession.

Even from Doug.

Although I didn't come up with that myself. Another helpful user informed me of that.

So no selling recipe bread covered in Micah spit? Oh well.

Recipe bread works differently in RF3. You eat it weather it works or not.

Sounds more realistic that way to me.

Alright, time to run around asking every bachelor to go out with me once a day until it works. I've got most of them around 7 and 8 now.

I can't tell if Addie(?) in FM is supposed to be scary, cute, or both.

...

She's mostly cute to me.

Either way, I think she's my favorite.

Least favorite? I can't decide. Probably the loli because 3young5me.

I don't mind Gabbie too much, but she does act a little young.

I never noticed how much music from RF3 they used in RF4

...

corpse party on the pc is a port from the psp version right?

I hear it's inferior to the psp version, though I don't know specifics.

...

Who's she?

How old does Gabbie look to you? I'd guess somewhere around mid-teens or under.
