I miss 'old' TellTale, back when they made whimsical stuff like Sam & Max, Wallace & Gromit, and Tales of Monkey Island. I'm glad their recent ventures have brought them success, but I still miss their older stuff.
I've been playing a lot of Story of Seasons, too. But I responded to your comment on your last blog, so I won't go into it here. But I will say you're right about Iris. :)
I agree, Rune Factory is way better than Harvest Moon.
Actually, Farmer Man Cary IS leaning toward Iris! You're good!
The TV weather lady is pretty cool, too, but I can never find her out and about (guess she always works), and plus she looks like she's only 12. But that's anime for ya.
My Story of Seasons review will be up in a couple of weeks. I'll let you know when it posts.
He'd eat his own sword, silly! :)
SC4 wasn't popular? I loved it. My favorite game on the 360.
Playing as Link was definitely a selling point for the GameCube version. They did a great job with his moves and weapons.
Pac-Man's no stranger to fighting games, as he's been playable in stuff like Tekken X Street Fighter and Smash Bros. I don't know what kind of weapon he'd use in a Soul Calibur game, but the possibliities are endless. He could use a classic game weapon, moves similar to what he has in Smash, or no weapons at all! In the character creation mode of SC5, you can have little Pac-Man and Klonoa figurines attached to your fighter you create.
I started playing this in the arcade when it was just Soul Blade (or Soul Edge, can't remember which). But then, I only played it because I thought Pac-Man was in it (he was on the Namco logo screen). I played Soul Calibur on the DC at a friend's, but I didn't own it myself. I really didn't get into it until Soul Calibur 2, but after that I was hooked. I loved how even novice fighters could enjoy it, yet experts could still master it. I think that's why Nintendo had Namco help them with the last Smash Bros. game, since both games are like that. I also really liked creating characters in SC 4 and 5. My favorite characters are Nightmare, Taki, and Cassandra.
Ha ha! You make me sound horrible. :) There can be more than one Farmer Man Cary, ya know! :)
In Story of Seasons, Farmer Man Cary is leaning towards Iris the novelist. But there are lots of other interesting characters to interact with and marry, like a TV weatherlady, a ranger, etc.
In the last Rune Factory game, Farmer Man Cary married the knight lady because she was tough and strong and you could take her into dungeons to fight monsters and it counted as a 'date.'
In the last Harvest Moon game, Farmer Man Cary married the blacksmith lady but I forget why. I don't remember any other games before that.
I think my favorite was when Mii Cary married Mii Princess Zelda in Tomodatchi Life and they had a baby. I named him Zelda Jr.
Not interested in that, which is weird because in high school I played hardly anything BUT RPGs. This was back in the 16 bit days, though. I'll just pretend to be a farmer in Story of Seasons for now.
