Nurse Fin's Welcome to the Wind Bazaar, Observations and first impressions Options

[Nurse Fin]

I don't have the game just yet (grr, gotta wait 'til Christmas...), but other people do. As of today it is available in all game stores across Japan.

Here are some things I have noticed through the wiki:

- Crop system is similar to IoH and SSaF (darn...)
- Most actions are done with the B button now. The A button is strictly for jumping. The "menu" will only display your rucksack; there are no earnings/relationship/status charts on hand (all charts are accessible through the bookshelf).
- For other controls, pressing the L button(?) will toggle walking/running, and the R button will open up a tool selection window.
- Schmidt and Kagetsu are marriage candidates. It is unknown whether there are two more, but it seems unlikely.
- Most of the townspeople are already available, with the exceptions of Schmidt, Kagetsu, and 4 other mystery villagers. The methods to unlock them are currently unknown.
- The save system is like the old HM games. When you start a new game, you pick the slot you want to use (2 total). You can only save when you go to sleep. You cannot make duplicate/backup files (my guess is that it was implemented because of the Wi-Fi...).
- Everything is in real-time. Time doesn't stop indoors (not even in your house), or when you open menus. So far there's no way to pause the game (except closing the DS), so I guess it's something to watch out for.

-Jumping into the water will drop your stamina, but sometimes you can find items in there. Like money, medals, stones...

Obviously I'll have a lot more info once I can try this game for myself. But that's what I've gathered this evening. ^^'

Cause there are others who look like kids too ? like Enju and Anemone
Also Agi has a child's voice especially when he loughs (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalatounge.gif)

well either way. I still dont think that makes a difference. if theres others that look and seem likes kids too, why is there no complaining for them?

Personally I think they all look like kids ( main characters included ) so those candidates don't look younger, but look the same age as the mains. In ToT the main toons and the rest of the bachelors/bachelorettes looked the same age or older then the main toons, thus making Luna the odd one out. But in Wind Bazaar there is no odd one out, they all look young (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif) well except for the specials and Freyja. At least that's what I think :3 I personally like Luna, so this is just an observation and may not be the reason for others :3

well I love Luna. so I wanna defend her. (and in my opinion mose in WB look like 5, but Dirka looks SHORT which is why people thought Luna looked so young, plus he looks like 3.) and I love how they thought she looked too young when they tried making realistic height differences, yet they loved it when they made every woman the EXACT SAME SIZE. so realistic. yet when they took out the realness of Owen being taller, everyone freaked out and got upset.
