I lost my motivation to play anything but Destiny.

Pls convince me to play an XSEED game.

>You'll never hear Vishnal screaming "SDF! SDF! SDF!" as he's whirlwinding his way through a 50-meter-thick mob of bugs
>Never see Forte going mano-e-mano with a giant fucking robot, literally cutting it down to size foot by foot
>Never see Dolce blowing dropships out of the sky with giant fucking fireballs and sucking hordes of enemies into dark magic singularities while Pico is scrabbling all over not-Godzilla and biting the shit out of it

A EDFxRF4 crossover'd be stupid as shit but that wouldn't make it any less fun.

Happy 4th anniversary RF4

Why does everything have to drop everything when Neil enters or leaves the scene?

At least I triggered an Iroha event.

...

...

>Earth Defense Force 4.1 has launched on Steam and is on sale for $35 until July 25th

And fuck it, bought and installed.

>Boot up and hear that wonderful menu input confirmation sound from EDF 2017

Oh god my heart, it's really a proper EDF game unlike Insect Armageddon.

What are their names again?

>2nd >> thing

Stupid touchscreen.

Siluka and Iluka, respectively.

Not a fan of the winter theme in ToT. Fall was much better.

Fall usually has the bet theme in these games too.

Someone should extract and dump the music files in Mega for all to share.

So Siluka = pink, Iluka = blue?

Damn, I meant other way around: Siluka = blue, Iluka = pink?

I'm sure someone has already. You'd just have to search for it.

Game rips aren't going to sound great though and most of the music is unmemorable. So far the contest theme and the special flower event themes are the only ones that have been sort of good.

...

Dolce looks really sexy there.

She sure does...

Dolce is a sult.

Dolce is a pure and wholesome woman!

if that allows you to sleep in the nights

...

here. She's pure.

Really though, when it comes to matters of romace, does Dolce drop a lot of pasta?

While there's no bookworms in 3V, at least there's a teacher. I guess my top favorite waifus now are Siluka or Kasumi.

>romace

Stupid typos.

>two bachelorettes are copy-pastes of each other
>the flower girl is boring
>the spirit bachelorette doesn't even live with you

Way to go, Marvelous.

It's pretty clear from where's the demand of these games, user.

meido is the way to go.

You can't forget the qt teacher.

>trying to court Kasumi
>her next event apparently requires a bathhouse to be built in town

I've hit a wall and I'm a long ways away from getting that thing built.

She does do so quite often though not as much as Forte.

...

Forte confirmed for purest.

Is Seibah just as pastariffic in the Fate series?

...

>flower girl is boring
Come say that to my face you homo. Lisette a CUTEST and MOST PURE.

Lisette was the first waifu I saw in 3V stuff. What's she like though? Based on her appearance, I guess she's like Shara of RF3, but not crazy and a little more shy.

...

>page 10

Your flower-munching """"""""""waifu"""""""""" has nothing noteworthy to mention about.

>Story of Seasons: Trio of Towns (Cherished Friends of Three Villages) (3DS 2017)

Probably 2018 in yurop. How long was the delay between NA and EU for SoS?

That one took a while. Far longer than it should have really.

I think it was over a year.

9 months.

Then we have 13 months between JP and NA.

Let's estimate April 2018 for EU.

Stupid question but can someone tell me how to play a pirated EDF game in multiplayer?

>Then we have 13 months between JP and NA.

Don't you mean between JP and EU?

>JP and EU

I meant NA and EU.

I still have no idea desu, never was able to find that fucking script dump

Something new in 3V that I think is pretty neat is being able to make fertilizer water.
Works the same as normal fertilizer, but with the convenience of using your watering can at the same time.
You use a special maker and wait for it to be done just like making any other product. It also doubles as a storage tank, so you can hold up to three different types of fertilizer water at the same time.

The only catch is that you're going to want to keep two watering cans on you when you do farm work. One with regular water and one with the fertilizer water of your choice.
Maybe even more if you want a can for each type of fertilizer.

You can also paint/dye your tools in this game and you can see the color of water when you select it, so you won't get confused easily.

Has anyone made a chart of all the 3V character's expressions, like with SoS?

There was one floating around. Let me see if I can find it on fogu.

...

...

...

For some reason these last 2 charts are lower res.

Cool, thanks!

Last one, I don't think Inari has a troubled portrait.

>children don't get different clothes based on where your spouse came from
some of these lulucoco and tsuyukasa children are vomit inducing

Can I have at least both children by now?

That was the last game. Not this time.

GOD FUCKING DAMMIT MARVELOUS.

Yeah, I'm not really liking the kid's design this time.

Also, I don't know if this is true, but I heard that you don't get to choose your kid's gender in this game, unlike most of the recent games. This time it's completely random if you get a son or a daughter.

>Be playin' EDF PC and decide to check CPU temps on a lark after finishing
>70*C on all 4 cores

Jesus, I mean it's mostly smooth as silk and all but holy hell they need to do some optimizing or something, The Phantom Pain barely hits 55* in comparison.

WHAT

Are you fucking serious, they actually removed the option for twins? God fucking damn it stupid shit like this is why I stopped playing HM in the first place and 3V seems hellbent on killing my interest in finally coming back.

I like the little duck suit the kid has as a baby.

>something about Clorica snoozing

I wonder how quickly counting sheep would make Clorica fall asleep?

Are sheepgirls affected by sheep counting?

If not, she could count plain humans.

Being an Air Raider in planet space is suffering.

...

>Kasumi always smiling when I talk to her
>she now also gives me homemade food presents

My heart can't take it.

...

Most things about 3V seem pretty good so far though.

If you haven't played the last HMs why do you even complaint, SoS was incredibly solid and 3V looks like it has a lot of improvements in town events and socializing.

I'm certainly enjoying it.

I've been wanting to play it, does it have furigana?

I think I recognize you, you're that guy that was saying that RF4 is better than HM, and that called portable entries "mobile".

3V is actually looking really good, the only real disappointment is fox waifu not being able to have kids.

I've noticed that 2D girls satisfy all my emotional needs, the only real reason I want a girlfriend is to have sex.

I need help anons, I may have to leave you to keep my sanity.

It does not. My moon is poor, but it hasn't stopped me from enjoying it.

My moon is probably worse, I can read kana but I only know like 30 kanji give or take.

I guess I'll try it, I can probably play the game just fine with kana, it'll be a shame not being able to read the dialogues though, maybe I'll use a dictionary.

Thankfully the community has people that actually do work for us EOPs and there's also a japanese wiki with all the info if you need it. Fogu has been pretty helpful with this stuff too.

She mostly posts about the character she married, but posts like the one I linked are pretty damn useful.

...

Last one from me.

...

Cute

there appears to be a loli ventuswill in rf4 that covers the fanart thing in the trophy room
do I get the option to fuck that ventuswill later in the game

>do I get the option to fuck that ventuswill later in the game

_______no______________

...

ANB is so excrutiatingly slow wtf.

okay im over it
time to woo sleepy butler

Realky atrocious.

9 months. NA release was 31st March. EU was 31st December.

>No troubled expression for inari not even a marriage photo

Still holding out for DLC, hopefully

...

Why the insistence on top-down in a lot of HM/RF games? Why not an isometric perspective?

>page 10

>page 10 again

...

>Finally 100% Phantom Pain, time to move on
>Thinking of either Dragon Quest: Taloon's Great Adventure or HM: FoMT since I never got around to it
>Choose HM, but the DL link on my go-to rom site's broken

It's like the universe itself is repelling me from the series at this point. Oh well, been meaning to do DQ:TGA for almost a decade now.

...

I should draw more of these. Oh well, maybe later.

What do you guys usually name your farms?
