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

[FoodAssassin]

Fin you are my absolute hero. and without you here id probably blow my brains out of lack of knowledge (no offence everyone else. youre all great (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalagrin.gif) )

[ScyS]

Fin, you are awesome, thanks for all of the videos and info. Actual kissing in game FTW! More stuff post marriage is also awesome! (although raising your spouse to 20 hearts seems like a daunting task.)

The jealousy thing seems like a nice touch, by the way. Although it could get inconvenient. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif)

[Totoro Spirit]

Just when I thought the bachelors from ToT couldn't get worse...oh well.
Nice work Fin. Oh, and same to all you other people working on the EAM stuff.

Heehee~ I'm reeaally excited now for this game.. ♥ I'm really glad that HM makers are making an effort to improve the game.. Like, all the features are really interesting and some helpful.

I don't know, since I've only really focused on Juli in my file, but the Wizard was starting to like me, then stopped when I started asking him about other guys (his heart level actually started going down)... so maybe they can get jealous.

wow.. It can go down.. That's kinda scary xP I guess "cheating" will have consequences this time.. Ah. I think I'll miss getting 6/8 of the TOT guys up to marriage level and viewing each heart events and proposals.. I'm a player that way, but really, it's just curiosity and the urge to not miss ANYTHING ♥ I'm just hoping that if there is some major jealousy thing, it won't be like in AWL.. because the "betrayed" girls after that.. never seemed the same again.. o__o Too depressing. For me.
20 hearts... is a LOT.. I might have the urge.. to wait until each guy reaches the max.. But that's gonna be way too long and pointless after I marry one xP I just wanna know what they all say.. I hope the dialogue is even cuter than TOT~ I'm glad that it doesn't stop at ten, because I really want the husbands to start saying new, more cute stuff.. heh.
Yay~ A honeymoon thing.. Now there's an actual reason you get kids. Maybe you can't have a kid unless you use that ticket.. Hm. You can choose.. to be childless? Hm. At least there's a place where you go to.. conceive. 'Cause, well, its illogical that after marrying Chase in TOT, he comes home late, so I believe my character would be sleeping and not it the mood to.. Yeah.. Hahah. I'm kidding...

I have a few questions though, that I hope could please be answered..
1) Is it really confirmed that Luke and Selena are a potential couple? Because, what if they decided to keep those two rival-less like in TOT.. I know that Luke's kid was in the video, but still... It's weird since those two had not even a tiny hint of being a couple in TOT (or maybe I missed something.) Though, I feel a bit bad when Luke doesn't end up with anyone.. :(
2) Is money-making hard? In TOT, I managed to make around 6000G to 10000G a day mid-Year 2, and the money making only started getting high (yet tedious) until that time.. So I'm hoping that making money will be at least a little close to how easy making money is in TOT.. ('cause 30,000 for upgrades and -forgot the price- of livestock is really hard to achieve especially in the beginning..!)
3) ...Does the shipping box have a limit of how much items you can put in like in TOT? Because I don't like how I have to wait until the next day before I can ship the rest of my stuff..

THANK YOU Nurse Fin (EDIT: I mean EVERYONE, sorry) for all this info and help~! You've made a lot of people excited about the new game ♥
And I'm sorry for such a long post (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalatounge.gif)

Just when I thought the bachelors from ToT couldn't get worse...oh well.
Nice work Fin. Oh, and same to all you other people working on the EAM stuff.

what do you mean? the only one whose worse is Owen. the others are exactly the same or better.

[Charmy]

A nice, big, large, AWWWWWWWW!!! To the wedding scene. I WANT THIS GAME!!!
Thanxyou Fin for all of this info!!!

You guys say so much while I'm gone....

[Nurse Fin]

Ohhh, I just did the honeymoon, and it was a cute little cutscene. It's really funny (and cute) to go on a walk with your spouse, seeing them tag along wherever you go... haha. But it raises affection and obviously you need your spouse with you to go on the honeymoon...

I also triggered a friendship event with Roomi! I left my house around 9PM, and she was standing outside. She asked me for some advice on how to confess her love, since someone like Gil probably wouldn't say it himself. ^^' But I still haven't gotten any of their rival events. I wonder if that scene can only activate if you are married...

[Charmy]

Interesting.
It's so cute imagining Roomi and coming up and asking you how to confess her love, Lol, I just find it funny :D

EDIT: I want to make my spouse suffer from following me everywhere now, LOL.

[Totoro Spirit]

what do you mean? the only one whose worse is Owen. the others are exactly the same or better.

That's exactly what I meant. I didn't like any of them really, but I ended up going for Owen and now he's messed up too... I'll get over it, still a disappointment.

[Nurse Fin]

Oh, I also added translations to the some of the videos: Proposal, Gil, Cathy/Ose Event, Sheila's Intro... still need to add translations for the others though.

[Cirno]

Hey Nurse, I just checked my shop again and no go.

That's everything located in my shop.

On a side note, power berry on the 30th level of the first mine, not the water one. You have to go to the bottom left of the area you're in and you'll pick it up.

On another side note, you said something about a wedding ring, is that needed to get married? Or are you just giving one from your spouse during your wedding and you can wear it whenever?

[Charmy]

LOL, I love how in Ose & Cathy scene he just calls her a stubborn tomboy *Laughs untli she hurts herself*

[Why Did I Marry ...]

I'm excitingly waiting for the translations to finally show up for me. Thank you so much for all of this, Nurse Fin! I don't think I can express my gratitude enough!

I, too, am finding myself curious as to if Luke and Sheila have been confirmed rivals, though. Not that I'm going to be distraught about avoiding her like the plague, but she wasn't bad in ToT, so I don't have any other reason to avoid her.

[Charmy]

Sorry to be a pain but what's Chihaya's and Kotomi's intro???

[Cirno]

Here's some info I came across while playing, dunno if Nurse has said anything about it yet. If so, sorry for wasting your time.

There are no more sparkles on ores and wonderfuls. You pick them up and have to have them appraised to know what they are now. Appraisals cost 35g each.

Hot springs don't take time to use anymore, I think. In the caves, there are hot springs on the 20th floor. I used one at 11:30 and it was still 11:30 when I got out. However, I wasn't at full stamina o_o

Obviously, but cows don't eat even when outside if there's no fully grown grass. You have to grow your own this time again. Grass just doesn't spring up like in ToT. I don't know what chicks eat, I did notice that two grass patches were eaten so I can only assume they eat grass, or I missed one day and my cow ate them both.

I dunno, maybe Nurse has some insight to this but talking to people everyday doesn't do much, if anything in terms of relationships. Since I've started, I've been talking to people whenever I have the chance, yet I have no hearts for anyone.

I've upgraded my water can to iron as well, but the copper option isn't available. Not sure if the shop is low level, or if you need to level everything up then go to the next level.

[fabshelly]

Nurse Fin, I haven't heard you mention Jin at all - have you met him yet?

[KittyCatx16]

I'm curious about Luke/Selena and the H.God! I'm also wondering about the 20 hearts of your spouse... does that mean.. MORE LINES?! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalagrin.gif)

[Nurse Fin]

It just takes longer to make friends in this game. Talking to them does increase FP, but it will probably take a long time before you see any noticeable results. Giving gifts is probably the best way to go, but even that will take a while.

And yeah, Luke and Sheila are confirmed rivals. I don't think the Wizard was lying to me :P

For upgrading tools, the shop needs to level up before you can go any further than the iron upgrade.



For Rival Events, so far this is what I've found:
4 hearts - First Rival Event
5 hearts - Rival visits your house and asks for romantic advice
? hearts - ...?

...I don't know when other events occur, or when rivals get married. *sigh* I hate being the only one married so far. But judging by this, you don't have to avoid rivals like the plague. It will take a long time before anything happens with them.

Jin/Won shows up after you complete Ben's Bell quest, he can be found in the clinic. I remember recording his intro, but my computer seems to have eaten it because I can't find it anywhere.

[Curimuch]

What recording device are you using, by the way? The quality of your videos are so pretty.

[Why Did I Marry ...]

Oh, I hadn't even noticed that you had mentioned the Wizard saying that there was interest between Luke and Sheila, unless it was more of a subtly implied thing. Must've missed that. Thanks, though!
