What would you take OUT of a new Harvest Moon game? Options

[Indigo Horrible]

Since there have been certain mainstays in the series for a while now, I was curious as to what you'd REMOVE, if you could take anything out of an upcoming Harvest Moon game. Or, at least, change/replace it with.

I'll go first: I'd take out the set rival couples. Oh, no, there would still BE rival couples, but this time, they would be more open-ended. Who ends up with who in the end depends on your actions, and there would be multiple branches for each potential match-up.

For example, theoretically, if we were to do this in Back to Nature... depending on your actions, Popuri might end up with Kai, or perhaps Cliff, or even Ann. Karen could wind up with Rick, Elli, or the Doctor, and so on - I've seen some awesome fanfics based on non-canon couples and thought that keeping potential hook-ups more open-ended would be a great idea for the series.

Make days last about 10 minutes. It's annoying to need 30+ minutes just to finish a single day.
