Well I'm sold. Day one.
Yeah, it's been like 2 years I've been waiting for it!

I had no idea this existed. After watching some videos it is literally my dream game.
Does anyone know if my girlfriend and I can play together?

It has a co-op mod : local and online.
It come with the base game.
Try to watch this > Youtube
Videos of couple playing together, so you might find your answers over there since this game seems not to have many western players who have imported that game.
From what I read, you can co-op, but only one person gets story progression. Not sure how big a deal that is with this game.
You can do everything but not Flutter's quest (the butterfly, main story quest)
So you can switch to a new job and do the questline about it without problem in co-op, or even accept NPC request and do them.
Edit : I'm not 100% sure about the job ones but that would be stupid if you couldn't because starting a job for the first time give you a quest automatically and you can't do anything without doing it.
I don't think so since it was born on the Nintendo DS.
In my opinion, that game is more like a mmorpg with offline mod rather than a Rune Factory game beacause you don't manage a farm.

The perennial question: digital or retail?

Physical for sure. I hope I can transfer my save to a new 3ds unlike animal crossing.
I'm going digital personally, like Animal Crossing. Definitely will be something I play a lot at random times, and am probably going to be keeping Smash in the game slot for a long time
Digital all the way.

going physical. I rarely play my handhelds out of the home anyway. if i have all these physical games and then get one game digital it just doesn't feel right to me. i don't mind cart swapping either.

Wow never heard about this game. Totally going to pick it up in the eShop!

I honestly loved the DS look.

This game is sneaking up on me a bit. I've been interested in it ever since I heard the impressions on a podcast (I believe 8-4 Play?). Definitely seems like a game I could get into, and the online co-op seems like it would complement this style of gameplay reasonably well.

I was thinking of True Fantasy Live Online,
True Fantasy Online could've been so amazing. It still hurts to think about to this day.

So do I, but I think from those pictures, I actually prefer the middle version.
In any case, I am looking forward to it. Digital or physical? hmm...

Yesss, going to buy it this weekend.

Got the physical ordered at £25.00 so a no-brainer.
This seems more of a 'game' than 'software/lifestyle/app' to me anyway which is all I tend to buy digitally (New Art Academy, Animal Crossing and Tomodachi Life only so far)
I'll get the DLC too, eventually...

I'm still confused, so it's an RPG with a bit of sim mixed in? The game sounds interesting, but if it's more life sim than RPG I might ignore it since I got bored of Animal Crossing a bit too quickly.
You can say it's a RPG with crafting and collecting job.
You can have some houses and put furniture in it put it's not as deep as Animal Crossing.

It's an RPG where you have all the jobs in the town basically. Even lots of non-combat ones. But they all benefit one another. You grind your own ore as a miner to craft a better weapon for your warrior and you gather food and stuff to brew some potions and things like that.

I was curious about character customization options after the Animal Crossing disappointment and was thrilled at all the choices I found in a video.
It looks like a tremendous amount of thought went into the process.
Including some slightly non-human ones...

It's more like Rune Factory (sim + exploration + combat) than Animal Crossing (sim only).

FYI GAME has the download codes for the digital version on sale now, £27.99 and they send the code straight away but the game's not being distributed yet on the eShop server so no early download =(

Now that's very very tempting.. Digital at the price of retail.
Certainly anyone getting digital already should just nab a GAME code.

Yes, character customization is pretty deep; it resembles that of Miis in a sense, with less face elements positioning but more options.

And I bought £75 worth of eShop credit not realising GAME gets digital preorder codes now >__> would say at least I've got enough for digital Smash but...guessing GAME's gonna get codes for those too...

Miner for me. Gonna hit up the "miner -> blacksmith -> paladin" circle of life.
Probably.
Maybe.
How does that work? Seems like a good deal. I suppose you just buy it and then they send me an email for the game that I can redeem in the e-shop? Never bought digital games

Yep, exactly that! Once the game is up on the eShop, you just go to Redeem Code and bam, game for cheaper.
Yup. They send you the code on e-mail and starting Friday midnight you can redeem itHow does that work? Seems like a good deal. I suppose you just buy it and then they send me an email for the game that I can redeem in the e-shop? Never bought digital games
It is super easy and much cheapr than the actual eShop pricesI was going Magician/Alchemist as they use the stat (intelligence).
But I want to do Tailor early too, it should feel good to make your own clothes.

This sounds pretty good. It's just under 36 euros. Probably can get a boxed version here for 45.
Gonna check if I got the blocks. Might need another SD card. Is it hard to transfer all your stuff to a bigger SD card?
Oh, the game got 8.5/10 (17/20) on Jeuxvideo.com
That's pretty good!
They blame the lack of challenge but the little I saw of Origin Island looks super hard.

Nothing is hard for too long, especially since you can get bot companions. But yeah, the challenge isn't necessarily in the fights.

Nope. I just did it last week by following Nintendo's instructions and everything was exactly as it should be afterwards.
