Now that after 7h I've opened most features (I think) the game has me a bit overwhelmed. I'm wary about progressing in the main story as I remember the main story for Fantasy Life OG to be especially short, but I don't know how to progress through Ginormosia. It's too "sandbox"y. I'm talking Breath of the Wild underground levels of sandbox. Some handholding there would be nice, the game handholds you in places where it shouldn't and leaves you to your own devices in the sandbox.

Looks like the last patch basically fixed the multiplayer:
They are basically releasing one patch every day lol, very nice of them. To those that played the first game, how did they handle content updates? I've seen a lot of praise for it's DLC.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
Good news! Now can they get rid of the countdown timer? I've finally convinced my wife to give this game a try, after convincing her it's a bit like Animal Crossing. She wants to do multiplayer "hangs" but from the sound of things that isn't really feasible?
The DLC on the first game was great - it continued the story, added a whole new biome that was huge, new things to craft, etc. It was a proper old-school "expansion pack".

Game just came out and already has almost 30K CCU.
Hope it keeps doing this good, would love to get more content and support for the game.

Picked up this game because this thread caught my attention and I've heard good things about the 3DS entry of the series over the years. Excited to start playing it today.

Any word how the local 2p co-op works? Can two people both use/progress their own characters? Or does the second player just join in as a "helper" for player 1?
Also wondering if you can do a hybrid thing with 2 players on one system + 1-2 other players online.

Been playing this game since Sunday evening, picked up the deluxe version as I played the crap out of the 3DS original a decade ago. Already put over 20 hours into this game and it's exactly what I pictured a larger sequel to look like, now even better with more additions like the Animal Crossing-esque island feature. If you liked the original game, just go ahead and buy it already.

Local co-op is more like Mario Galaxy, one player is just the tag-along sidekick without any progression.
Additionally, no mixed co-op you can only either do local or online.

Yeah right? Been refreshing a few pages but no luck so far.

Cool, I'd actually kind of prefer that way for local co-op. Then my kids can join in to my/my wife's game without needing to start their own game.

Started the game and forgot doing the thing to deactivate EAC, fuck. 
Is it a lot of trouble to uninstall once I'm done with the game?
Also, here's a dunmer I made while fiddling with the character creator, which is very nice imo.

I have now bought this game three times... My wife really wanted to play it on Switch, and she wants to do multiplayer with me, so I bought it on PC so I can do that with my Steam Deck. I also bought a physical Switch copy. I can't remember the last game I spent $180 on before even playing...

My question is: how easy is it to earn money, XP, materials, etc., to build a house and decorate it? I like my cozy games veryyy simple and easy, almost cheat levels of easy. It is the point of playing a cozy and relaxing game to me. Too much grinding, or too many internal competing gameplay systems, mess that up and defeat the purpose.

Any word on if the JP physical edition can connect to an NA/EU eShop?

Just logged a few hours into this game, having a blast. As mentioned earlier in the thread, I also wish they'd mix it up a bit more with the different profession mini-games.
But early days still, might be that I'll be happy for the unified mechanics as I want to grind a "life" out.
Can't wait to slowly explore, loot, gather and fight my way through the map.

Put like 8 hours into this lol. Very cool so far, still getting tutorials in stuff, think I'm still missing the dungeoning and the village building.
Game's very fun to play, a constant loop of gathering, adventuring, crafting, exploring and repeat. The dialogue is legit funny and the character design is the cutest shit.
It's also BIG. Between the time travel story and all that shit on Ginormosia I can see this offering hours of fun in the hundreds.
Only gripe so far is how braindead easy the combat is, but it's not the focus of the game so whatever. Heard the previous game gets a bit harder later so it might be the case here as well.

Played around 8 hours and the PS5 game summary is saying I'm 74% complete which has me pretty worried.
Am I playing it "wrong"? I thought folks played these for hundreds of hours! I've just focused solely on the story quests so far as I figured I'd reach a point where I'd be forced to do the other things before I could progress.
But I'm almost at the end with just the two lives played, erm what?
Please tell me the real game begins after the story and I've not ruined it.

If this follows the trajectory of the first game, it won't get much more difficult overall. There will be monsters you'll encounter that are significantly higher level than you, which are designed to be taken down in groups of multiplayer or designed to be taken down when you're equal in levels to them. However, even taking on stuff that's 10–20 levels higher than you is possible, just boring. Attack, attack, dodge, dodge, super attack, repeat. Missed the dodge? You mighta got one-shotted.
Technically more difficult, but still pretty basic. Sucks for you, but great for people like

who posted above you wanting "cheat levels of easy".

Random reddit account fwiw, but it looks like the physical version does require a JP eShop account: https://www.reddit.com/r/fantasylife/s/O3oZ1ZbMPp

No idea but I'd assume the story is the introduction to all the mechanics and after that you keep playing at your own leysure.
You have the past with a bunch of islands to explore and do questing in, the present with all the Animal Crossing shit and also Ginormosia that's basically open world 2D Zelda. There's content enough to play for more than 100 hours for sure.

Must've been some old ass trailers in the eShop, SwitchUp reviewed it and said it performs and looks great, and it looks so in all their footage. A few framerate issues if you're doing 4 player online but the single player runs excellent. They also loved the game. Feel like I'm gonna jump in tonight, I have almost enough to cover it from some birthday present credit I was hanging on to.

I also love(d) Level-5 and want to support this little comeback tour they're on, but Megaton Musashi and Inazuma Eleven don't interest me at all. If this helps fund the rest of the new Professor Layton, that doesn't hurt one bit either (Decapolice looks cool too).

You should unlock at least all gatherer early tho.
The meat of the game is its sandbox nature, the story is rather short.

SwitchUp gave it a glowing review. Based on what I saw, I am sold!

The Switchup review came in way higher than I was expecting. I'll try to wait for a sale, though. But dang this sounds good. I'll either get it on Xbox on sale or wait for Switch 2. My hesitancy with Switch 2 is lack of achievements.

It's different. Never played Stardew but that seems like a game about farm life and nothing else, no? This one has content up the ass and way more stuff than just farming. There's an Animal Crossing town to build on your own, multiple other towns and locations to adventure through and a whole BOTW kind of map full of dungeons and stuff.
I see people complain about the price but I don't get it. Sure the graphics aren't AAA shit but there's content here to play for hundreds of hours.
Plus it's 60 bucks, not the sadly usual 70. I'd say it's a good game, but it's also a kiddy game so unless you are in for a comfy game you'll feel disappointed.

I didn't mean it's not worth it! just that it looks like a smaller game given its art style and what's typical for games with that art style in the gaming market
Was genuinely asking lol

hmmm, I played Stardew for more then 200hours and Stardew has some quests and dungeons too, its not just farm, it has romance options, you can marry, have kids, i think of Stardew more like a slice of life sim than a farm sim, its doesnt have a big scope but its pretty chill.... I really didnt like it Animal Crossing at all i think it is very childish for my 40yo ass.

I'd say check out some videos and decide on your own. Game is cute as hell so you might not like that aspect if childish stuff puts you off.
Aside from that, there's a lot of stuff to do here. Think Monster Hunter gathering + Animal Crossing town building + Zelda BOTW open world (but more in the style of Link's Awakening) + Dragon's Dogma adventuring with a custom npc party doing battles and dungeons + a lot of other shit lol. Game's content won't be the issue, truest me. If you end up not liking it it'll probably be either because the game's too cute or the combat being easy.
