(Nurse Fin's) Exciting Animal March: A First Look, Observations about the game Options

[Jaci]

I agree about the wizard. Gale sounds really mysterious and cool. but it is similar to Gill. and thats generally a down point...

its gonna be depressing finding out the witch's name. I can really only see Vivi fitting her... I hope she stays Vivi and Vivian becomes Veronica or Valerie. cuz I could actually see her fitting into either of those names.

ooooh. I really like Talia for her. especially with the meaning. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalagrin.gif) its so different compared to the fact that Selena, Phobe, and Luna all mean moon.

and I like any of those for the God. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalasmile.gif) theyre all pretty nice names. but I also wasnt too fond of Ignis... maybe itll be Ignatius. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif)

Exactly -_-'

I agree. I think Vivian should suffer the name change, since she could really fit anything - plus, half the people that play the game are going to marry Gil or Roomi, meaning that Vivian won't even be born... Vivi will always be in the game though... *sighs*

I love Talia for her, only because of the meaning. I thought it went well (: Huh, I didn't realize that they all meant moon (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif)

Yeah... I really hope his name is changed. I think I'd like anything better than Ignis.... it makes him sound like a dork :P
haha, oh man, a mexican harvest god. That would be perfect (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif) <3

[Jaci]

I'd prefer it if they kept his name as Gale, but I guess I could live with Gabe, too... ._.

Yeah, Vivi won't stay. Maybe Val or Valerie, something along those lines?

They could go with Gaia or Terra for earthy names for the Goddess, or maybe something like Naida, Nerina, or Nerine.

God's could be Aden, Aidan, or Aiden. Or Kenny. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif)

And the Wizard's kids don't seem to have different colored eyes on their models (maybe if you squint...), but do on their portraits. :/

I couldn't live with Gabe, to be honest. I have such a horrible obsession with him...he has to stay as Gale T_T

Probably. I really hope they don't make it Vicky though, it seems too cliche.

They all sound really pretty (: I'm sure they'll pick something great for her

lmao. Kenny. That's perfect ;D

yeah, its kinda dissapointing.
It kind of dissapointed me that they're so pale too... with his skin being so dark, I just expected them to be a tad darker too. It's whatever though (:

I agree. plus people care less about the people theyre not marrying. like, I liked Pompeii and they changed it to Pascal. do I care? no. because he's not a character I care about. so if they change the rival child and let Vivi stay itll make more people happy.

I like Talia because it reminds me of an exotic beauty and sounds really pretty, then the meaning just fits so nicely.

lol. I agree. they could've made it way manlier. lol. mexican Gods with long wazy orange hair.

Exactly :D I feel the need to like, go run up to whoever will be dealing with the names and what-not, and explain this....since I'm about 85% sure Vivi will be changed, which is like, the biggest dissapointment in the world's history.

Yeah (: I really loved it when I found it earlier, it just, clicked :D <3

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif) yeah, poor Harvest God. I think Ignacious would fit his mexican harvest god-ness, so long as he looked more nerdy, but they made him so...insane looking -_o *looks over his muscles a few times* ...It just doesn't suit him. He needs a name to match his crazy hair (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif)

[Sammy Ryou]

Hm, you've got a point, though. Changing Vivian's name would make more sense, and make most of us happy. xP

Looking up more fire-related names, there's:

Adar
Aine
Brande
Azar
Atesh

...Or, at least, the ones that I thought sounded cool. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif)

Edit: I can't believe I forgot Blaise/Blaze! xP

I wonder if they would care if I did mention it to them. Or, if they would blow me off...

I like those :D Azar & Atesh
I would make those my kid's names if I married him and had two boys (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif)

others: Epemetheus, Aodhfionn (means white fire in irish), Keezheekoni (okay, its a female name but it looked neat (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif) ), Akane

err, yeah (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif)

I personally like Atesh the most. I think it has a nice ring to it.

Akane's nice, too, though. :3

I love Atesh :D it really does, and I think it suits him rather well.
We should like, write a letter to these people (Natsume or Marvelous, whichever is the one in charge -_-') and make suggestions (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif)

it's Natsume. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalasmile.gif)
marvelous already did their part on the game.
(although I always did find it funny that the American sounding one does the Japanese part and the Japanese sounding one did the American part...)

and I think you should.
if enough people do they'll listen.
like they were gonna change Nami to... (gross) Nancy.
but enough people emailed that they kept it Nami.

if we get lots of people to be all, hey Natsume, keep it Vivi and make the God either Atesh or Azar or etc. theyll probably listen.

I think they should have a character named Vega. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif) I was looking up girls names that started with V to see if any would be good for Witchy and I found it. Arabic for falling star. and it's such a cool name in my opinion... I'd be DECENT if that was Witchy's name. (lol. also found Vanessica [mix between Vannesa and Jessica] that I just thought was super awesome)

Oh okay (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif)
I never really realized Marvelous had anything to do with it at all until I went on exciting animal march's original Jap. site today and watched the videos.... "MARVELOUS!" -_- bah.

haha, anywaaay...
Ew D: Nami doesn't fit Nancy at all. Im glad that wasn't changed.

We should get people to email them about this stuff then :D
1.) keep Vivi
2.) God -- Atesh / Azar
3.) keep Gale

It would be great if we could get them to listen (: there would surely be many content HM fans if we could get them to at least keep Vivi, and then Gale.


edit: AH :D
I love the meaning for Vega, it doesnt sound so bad for the Witch.
lol Vanessica

[hug a bug]

^ I agree they should definately keep vivi and Gale as the names. Although im not opposed Gabreil or Glenn ect. But I've already gotten used to the japanese names so... yeah don't do anything crazy marvelous lol.

[Skarlet Fantasy]

Ew... what?! NANCY?!?! Are they crazy?!?! >.>
Thank God Nami was saved from that.

Hopefully they'll come up with good name changes for them... or decide to not change them

[quincy52]

wow...those r some ridiculous names, lol. the harvest lord will stay the same, they have never changed the name of the harvest goddess, nor will they, no matter how many e-mails you send in.

Yeah, hopefully...

I agree that the names we picked do sound a little ridiculous, but there aren't many names that sound appropreiate for the fiery harvest god. I mean.... George just wasn't cutting it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif)
The harvest god and goddess may stay the same, but a lot of people think that they will change their names for the game's english version... we were just thinking of suggestions, in case they are changing it.

[FoodAssassin]

lol. what you have to realize though is that they already did in some ways. just like the Witch and Wizard, when you marry the God and Goddess they reveal their names are Ignis and Cefia (respectfully)
we were suggesting the names that they would use in the English version...

Oh okay (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif)
I never really realized Marvelous had anything to do with it at all until I went on exciting animal march's original Jap. site today and watched the videos.... "MARVELOUS!" -_- bah.

I agree. but Nami/Nancy... you could see where the name change was coming from.

and I would love to. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalagrin.gif) I just dont know how to get a hold of them. I was trying once to email them to ask the release date of ToT (I was getting impatient after like 4 months. how do you think it made me feel when they made me wait a year and a half...) but the closest I could find was some harware company called Natsume's email.

I know. then it would soften the blow of the fact many of their consumers hate them with a passion. at least if they took our suggestions we'd be more prone to liking them.

I know right?! without the meaning of Vega I think it's just ok. but when you add the meaning I think it's good. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalasmile.gif)

yeah, I can see where the change was coming from.

I'm gonna try to figure out how to get ahold of them, somehow. I wonder if they'd have their contact information on any of the booklets for the games. I'll have to check, if I can find any of them (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif)

Exactly :D Especially since so many people hate them anymore... -_o

Yeah, with the meaning, it's a pretty darn amazing name (:

[Sarcastic Irony]

I've just been lurking over the past few pages...

Man, I really hope that they don't change Gale or Vivi's names.
I haven't even played the game, and they seem to fit. I guess even if they do change the names, I'll keep referring to them as Gale and Vivi, but it wouldn't be the same. D:

As for contact information, this is what I found on their website. I don't know if it'll help any (maybe the email they offer for Gameplay Questions?), but here it is:

Hopefully they won't change their names. I agree that even if they do, it won't stop me from referring to them as Vivi and Gale, as well.

I think we should try that email, and if we can't get any reponse or anything from that, then im gonna suggest contacting them by snail mail, since it does give the company address...

(In the meantime, Im gonna go cry in a corner...
I've been playing ToT for about 4 months straight now, and I was only a few days short of beating it for the first time - when my boyfriend, who was in a bad mood, decided to save his brand new game over top of it.... what a waste of 4 months -_-)

[Sarcastic Irony]

Even if we don't get a response, we can just spam it up and hope they notice it. >:]
Or, like you said, just send it by snail mail.

And that's too bad about your ToT game! D:
I remember once my sister had to leave early while she was playing so she asked me to save for her, but I automatically saved it over my file. I had been playing that for quite a few months as well.
And then there was a time when my sister was playing, but she usually didn't save until she quit, and the power went out... she lost almost an entire season right there.
Come to think of it, there are quite a few tear-jerking stories like that in our house. :\
