Mind you, I'll lose at least 2/3 of those to deduplication, and use less than half of what's left, but still, I usually don't have nearly this many.

 That giant tree can also give you fruit tree seeds, which are marginally more useful. At least if you're like me and can't be assed to gamble on random fruit drops out in the dungeons.

And use scrap metal and iron(seriously, you'll have a shitton more iron than you'll ever use) to grind upgrades for skill. The only reason to use turnip seeds is if you have literally nothing else to use, but lower tier metals are so plentiful that problem quickly solves itself.

RazzleDazzleHour posted:Honestly I'm wondering how they even got into this situation in the first place. It sounds like divine dragons run out of runes to generate after a long time, so there's not actually a rune crisis, it's just that the guardians have been keeping Ventus alive long past her natural lifespan. Ventus was apparently out of the loop on the whole thing, so what did the guardians do, all get together and find an Earthmate and decide they should force Ventus to live forever? And so let's assume that we find some magic plot bullshit that lets us fix the rune problems and Ventus gets to keep living, what happens when she inevitably outlives everyone in the town? She says she tried not to be friends with people so no one would try to become a guardian ever again, but has she forgotten that people can die from other reasons than becoming guardians?

This new area is basically the game bonking you on the head and reminding you to stay current on crafting. It's really obvious about it too, even aside from the difficulty spike. Fire dungeon, sudden availability of water weapons. Hint hint.Truthkeeper posted:

...I just wanted to try a new place for fishing. I know it's dangerous... but I couldn’t resist. Fishing's not only about the fish itself, but finding the right spots to catch 'em, you know? Deciding what bait to use, and where to throw it... It's all part of the fun of the sport!

Every RF game has at least one eligible-seeming character you're unable to date for no apparent reason. It's the law.

RazzleDazzleHour posted:Honestly at this point it's in the same vein of "why does a character's well-being always have to be referred to as HP?" Like sure you could call it DYCTBYD (damage you can take before you die) but HP is just such an ingrained video game term that pretty much anyone who has played a game before will know what it means so why bother calling it something that will confuse people just for the sake of being different? People just inherently know that bronze is less valuable than silver, and attaching crafting to that eases the burden of knowledge where you would otherwise be memorizing some weird hierarchy of obscure metals or pretend metals.

It makes a bit more sense with some event-only backstory: Forte's fear of ghosts started after she, her dad, and Kiel regularly visited the spooky mansion to train, where Kiel was a bit too insistent on trying to lure ghosts out. Forte is heavily implied to have been freaked the gently caress out by actually seeing some, and coincidentally that's when she started being afraid of them. The end. RF4 has a bad habit of putting explanations like that in events(which are completely random, so you might never see them), and oftentimes events for one bachelor/ette. So if you don't date the right person(or look up their events on youtube), or get lucky with events, a lot of this stuff will pass you by. It's not always stuff that's a major plot point in the events, either - what I spoilered is from a few throwaway lines in Kiel's and Forte's marriage events. silversatyr posted:It's one thing to be scared, it's another to deny that fear through denial of the existence of the thing you're very clearly afraid of.

Although clover takes forever to grow, and is useful in a few recipes, so you might as well just use corn for your field-healing needs. ...although I'll admit I had no idea you could till the clover after harvest and still get the effect. The more you know. Zagglezig posted:What exactly was Doug requesting with the clover? Partly grow some clover and shovel it down into the fields instead of harvesting? Does that actually work and is there a min growth level required?

You take villagers along with you because they give you extra dialog during dungeon plot, which is the important part.

Fun fact: You actually can grab some of the fruit used to keep score, you just have to be really quick. There's not a huge point since it's easy to have fruit trees by now, but you still can.

The thing is it's (game mechanic spoilers) based off a random event trigger, like basically every character event in the game. You only have a chance for one event a day, and if it doesn't roll the Progress the Plot event, you're poo poo out of luck. You can cheese it by inviting Dylas and Amber to your party, saving, and going to bed. Reload until they leave your party, since that means the event triggered. So it's sort of better since you can get it with minimal in-game waiting if you're patient enough, but sort of worse since there's no definite amount of time to wait if you don't cheese it.

And the moral of the story is, nothing is free from the circle of life. Not even your god dragon king mayors.  Truthkeeper posted:Ooh, did you fly to Alvarna to grab Kyle? Or hunt down Raguna? More Earthmates would probably turn the tide of this fight, and a teamup between the RF protagonists would be cool. I’d even settle for Micah.

That just makes me want a new RF game where you get to travel through the towns of earlier RFs and help them coordinate their new era of peace(until something inevitably goes wrong, because there needs to be dramatic tension). Or any new RF game, really.

So Earthmate is fantasyspeak for "person who's capable of selectively breeding for better produce." Got it. That is an important ability(especially for a highly rural medieval-ish society), but not as all-consumingly important as Ethelberd's making it out to be.

I mean, this whole thing is everyone refusing to accept death just because they can. The natural cycle of things isn't really high on their priority list. And considering how many Guardians Venti's gone through, there should have been a bunch of replacement wind dragons between Leon's time and now.
