Preface starts with nonsense
As a good young man with a good mentality, poor health, poor sleep, and a good struggle period, in order to keep up with the trend of the times and the pace of my peers, I chose to swing to live, so when I heard that there was a pension game to play, it must be three more lights and five more chickens, but after the game was played, I found that the waist could no longer bend, the whole person stood straight, etc., I want to retire, right?
The game is introduced in the text
"Rune Workshop 3" is a two-dimensional beautiful girl farming pension game, although the game was released on October 22, 2009, but after the high-definition reset, it can be well embedded in the huge gear of modern games in terms of both the art style and the original gameplay of the game.
Although it is a standard farming and retirement game, the game process does not become a sleep life lying on an easy chair with nothing to do, we can improve the character's favorability, fight monsters, mine and fish... There are too many things to do. And NPCs are very spiritual, and they don't stay in the same place all the time waiting to die, but run around on the map, and gather them with items during the festival like real villagers.
And the degree of freedom is very high: you can do what you like, you will not starve to death if you don't do it, and the main mechanism is a freewheeling, and there is no common mechanism with the previous generation, which is very suitable for the new players of contemporary pendulumism, confusion, and electronic ED.
Spit before boasting
Again: Runefactory 3 is really a very old game, if you don't skip the days by sleeping continuously, but choose to cherish every hour in the game, the game can really be played for a long, long time. First of all, let's talk about the actual hand-operated experience of the game, because it is carried from NS and the game itself is also adapted, but the key setting is more strange: the space is the character interface and the setting interface, the Z key is an interactive key, and the key can not be set in the game (only the key can be swapped), and it is indeed difficult for keyboard and mouse players who often play NS to PC games to adapt at first.
It is recommended that players who are accustomed to using the controller to play directly with the controller, the keyboard is not able to achieve the smooth direction change of the joystick, and there is no automatic lock in our daily actual operation, so whether it is swinging a hoe in the field or swinging a gun in the monster, it is easy to swing the air, and it is difficult for us to pick up the items at her feet when NPCs overlap with dropped items.
Secondly, I am mentioning the design of the map: of course, it is not that there is anything wrong with the map itself, but the people on the map are very big problems, simulating a scene: when receiving a commission, we generally need to find the client himself to understand the details, but as mentioned earlier, NPCs will run around in safe places on the map, and even NPCs in buildings will not be displayed on the map, which leads us to find a specific guy who has to run from the left side of the map to the right, If you still can't find it, you can only go inside each building and look around.
Especially! Especially! Female NPCs will go to the bathhouse some time before the evening, and we, as male protagonists (males), are not allowed to enter the female bathhouse! Damn it, what is the truth of this! I'm going to do the commission, don't stop me, ahh
Personally feel a small problem
Should it really be said that it is a pension game, although I know what I can do for the first few hours of the game, but I don't know what to do, I know how to retire, I don't know how to continue to upgrade equipment, improve their equipment level, NPCs don't say anything, a vigorous commission can only get favorability + rewards, as for the general direction no one pointed out to me, causing me to be confused for a long time.
Lack of sense of purpose is the most troublesome question for me, what do I do, how do I do it, and why do I do it? Three doubts are undoubtedly insufficient on this game. There is also that the changes in the characters after increasing the favorability are not obvious, and the transition period from 0 favorability to full favorability does not feel strong positive feedback, and there is really no motivation to continue feeding the characters.
Character discussion
The popular characters of 09 must be tired of playing now, such as the big stomach king set up Little Kela, the vitality young woman set Io, the natural stay of Pelucy, these characters have long been passed on ten and hundred, and now the work is not stuffed with a female imp ~ miscellaneous fish and fish ❤ are embarrassed to say that they have love elements. However, there are still characters I like in "Rune Factory 3", such as Monica who can whine, and the boss lady who is already a daughter's mother, the boss lady I crave your body! , It's a pity that these two characters are non-strategy characters, which is really a pity!
The most interesting character setting that I find is Don Chakos (yes, daddy is not daughter), he is the first person in the village to deny me, and he starts with a loud cry: "Not good, unpalatable!" Originally, I thought that he was a bully city lord who liked to catch characters such as little girls, but after understanding that he just likes to say the opposite, the contrast between changing from a bad attitude to a gentle attitude is indeed interesting.
Other interesting systems
The character level of the game exists, but we don't need to spend our attention to specifically brush the level and do not need to use any special materials to increase the level, basically in each pension project has the corresponding level experience, and what we have to do is to start the corresponding one, for example: if you want to improve your cooking skills, you can cook, if you want to improve your walking skills, you will walk, if you want to improve your mining skills, you will mine, if you want to upgrade, you will do it, and you will not have too many bells and whistles (you can upgrade when you sleep)
Instead of the standard month of December, the game is divided into four seasons (spring, summer, autumn and winter), each season has a different activity (fishing, big stomach, bean scattering) with a lot of rewards for mini-games, every time the day comes to the festival the sky will fall streamers and cheers, we don't have to worry about whether we missed the festival.
·· In addition to the days marked in red outside the holidays, it may also be the birthdays of the characters, and we can send specific gifts at this time to unlock thank you dialogues or increase favorability, of course, whether it is a holiday or someone else's birthday, we can choose - open or go! No one will be yin and yang weird that you don't fit in and don't give gifts, the system won't force you to go out, you can still continue to plow the land and continue to sleep, the main game is a free and comfortable. (Bullying Monica is the most fun!) ）
After the full favorability and clearing the main line of the game, we can go to the game interface and the corresponding heroine to experience the newlywed mode, luxurious places are all in the newlywed mode, not only limited L2D, additional plot, but also CG, the only pity is that the sweetness is not enough, like the love between young people (but it is indeed it).
summary
Finally, in summarizing the game "Rune Factory 3", although the game has shortcomings because of the age difference, but fortunately the shortcomings are not too many and will not revolutionize the experience of the game, the general direction of the game and playability are not bad, if you want to experience the aimless, free pension game, then "Rune Factory 3" is definitely a good choice.
