...Watch it never come to fruition.

I have a huge laundry list of traits I'd love to include and exclude from various entries in the series, but you all go first. This could take me a while.

(No points given for simply saying "Just remake 64 lol" or "Just don't remake STH lol". Actually, no points will be given regardless of what you say or do, but seriously. Be detailed. Don't make me use that sickle in my avatar.)

I was primarily thinking of Mineral Town and its character interactions.

I think that would be very cool if you got to even just pick 1 of 3 character backgrounds, kind of like Mass Effect. Then occasionally it would come up in dialouge. The options could be somethnig like:

1. Grew up in the town, but recently just came back after being gone for a few years.
2. Hated farming, so strayed to the city for as long as you could.
3. A newcomer who had no ties to the town at all.

That wouldn't be too bad. BTN and I think 64 had something similar to 1, where you visited as a kid, met a local girl, and then came back as an adult.

Plus it's greasing up my fanfic gears...

I don't mind a collection-goal storyline (like bells or rainbows, although the notes were hit-and-miss for me), just as long as they keep it small. No "brush 100,000 times" crud. I enjoyed doing the bells, even if some were a bit chance-oriented (like the Red Bell - the Yellow Bell really seemed the easiest, and the Green Bell wasn't that hard; the Purple Bell just took a long time). The rainbows felt off because it forced you to wait through the seasons.

(The notes were alright in that a good deal of them could come from naturally progressing through the game, but I still didn't care for the set-up. The rewards - a power berry and free stamina restoration - were okay.)

But a simple "run the farm" storyline doesn't hurt either.
