Story of Seasons! <3

[Lolipup]

Hahaha Otaku farm here---Kurawa Farm, my character is named after my OC/looks like her; Kairi, my cow is Hanako (by default lol), Chiickens are Saki, Miko, Yumiko, Horse is Taku, Sheep are Kaiia (after Kaiaa xD) and Mikumi. btw I like Kaiia more Mikumi keeps popping by the barn door ugh stop leaving the barn you stupid sheep >: No pet yet haha.

Aww~ well Otaku farms are amazing too! so no worries about that. <3

I think I love the name Miko best, but I gotta say naming a sheepie after Kaiaa is super cute! <3 although eep! ;w; I'm sorry your sheep keeps leaving the barn oh my <3

Another thing. Is there a story line to this game? My boyfriend is the only one to play it so far. So I know nothing. Normally in HM games you have to do something with the goddess or sprites. Anything like that?

sadly no potential in the storyline compare to older games but apparently here you basically have to make your town well known by shipping to other countries. though there are some really touchy feels here and there..

Ah! this is a question I probably should of asked everyone earlier on, but I'm curious! what did everyone name their farm, character, and animals?? <3

I named my character after myself, so Alee, and my farm is Coffee Farm! I haven't gotten any animals unlocked yet because I'm a scrub;; but when I'll update with what I named them~ ^^

My Character's name is Belle♪ and my farm is Lunar★ farm. I've got a cow named Hanako, and a horse named Helios. ^.^

but does anyone know if raeger counts those times you ate at his restaurant before you got all the basic recipes or nah? when does he start giving you recipes?

and how does the amount of items you ship conquest work?? i was set to have the conquest and i shipped A LOT, more than 100 at least, but when the results came, apparently i shipped 0 whereas fritz shipped 80 and im so confused???

1) I believe he does count them. You need to buy all of the basic recipe sets from vendors before he will start giving you recipes. Just the sets, not all of the single recipes they stock. The earliest you can do so is Fall, if you ship enough to unlock Sakura Country (they sell the last two sets). I just bought them, and started getting recipes right away so I'm nearly certain he counted all of the dishes I bought beforehand.

2) Was it the day of the conquest, not before? Because I made that mistake at first. c; If it was the day of, and you chose most items shipped and not most money made, then it should have counted. So if not, it might have been a glitch?

And my farmer is Amanda from Ordon Farm. Currently I have my barn animals named after Vikings characters and coop animals named after The Returned, haha. So my cow is Aslaug, my sheep is Bjorn, two chickens are Rowan and Lena, and my rabbit is Simon. Also my horse is named Sergio for no apparent reason, although I may replace him at some point to rename.

I also have the original cow, Hanako, and another sheep also named Bjorn that had the cowardly personality so I had to buy another (forgot to reset beforehand). They will both be sold soon so I'm not really counting them, haha.

yup ive been eating almost everyday since day 15 of spring and i unlocked the Sakura country and bought the basic and when i came back he gave me a recipe ^_^ also yeah p sure it was the day of the conquest... it was the only time the vendor was available anyway plus when i woke up there was a "its my conquest today" that was just weird esp since i actually hogged days before...

 

[Superpenguin]

I sold all my topaz cause I really wanted to win the Conquest...and I won. :3
Two bricks away from getting the seed maker finally. I can't wait any longer. Relying on the limited stock of seeds is a pain.

 

[Chara]

do you need bricks i can give you some

 

[Superpenguin]

do you need bricks i can give you some

I got them all now. Thanks, though.
I was 400 away from getting the mushroom/honey field. :'(

O: 400 money away??? oh man that sucks... i usually save before ending the day of conquest if i really want the field.. esp the paddy and orchard since those take fOREVER to get lease.. mushroom/honey is pretty important too..

 

[Vinathi]

I just bought the game! I wanted a used one from GameStop so I could use the 20% off on used games. The closest GS that had it used was like, 30 miles away
I'm hoping it'll be worth it though. Very excited to play, but I won't be able to play until Friday qq

Yea and then I had to listen to Veronica say I didn't even come close to the competition. PLEASE!
I have the flower and roots fields at least. Hopefully I'll win the Leafy Crops and Spice Fields too. :3

I didn't get into it until later. The beginning is kind of boring, but once you start unlocking more stuff it gets a lot better.

I can't figure out how to re-cover the holes I've dug with a hoe.

 

[Chara]

hit it with a hammer

 

[Kairi-Kitten]

SAVE YOUR BLACK BRANCHES/LUMBER TT_TT OMG the resetting was horrible lol, so many platinum upgrades need it+television needs 12 and last home upgrade needs 30 don't be like me xD

 

[Dasbreenee]

My boyfriend is looking for black lumber. Where would he get this? (He's been playing so I haven't touched the game and can't find anything online)
He says there's not many trees you can cut but he's wondering if theres a certain time frame you need to cut the trees?

This is from gamefaqs and they worked for me:

You can get black lumber from:
- diving
- fishing
- cutting black branches on fall and winter (it will start to appear on fall 1st)
- tree stumps from safari
- get from vendor's reward

Good luck because resetting for some is a pain, regular trees do not give black lumber, you have to pretty much forage and they are easier to find from Fall 1 through Winter >: Just got my 30th piece so be sure to hold them for later and not sell them.

It's for my boyfriend. He's never really gotten into HM games so he has no idea how to really play. Haha. He's only played ToT and he tended to sleep and pick crops. Repeat.
He's for some reason really interested in this game. Lmao. Already 55 hours since the 1st of April. He's already in year 5, almost 6. And married. So he's addicted. I told him a million times to keep his materials but he didn't listen. XD
Thanks for the info, Ill let him know!

Hahaha that's really cool xD I had varying degrees of enjoyment for each game I played; gotta say this one is super fun so I don't doubt the addiction since I am 60+ hours in rip lol ooo and he's in a farther year lol that was fast 8'D

Yup materials are always important which I too forget every time haha : P

Oh and nag him to save those black branches lol just got a vendor request for 30 black lumber TT_TT YUP definitely save 'em all xD

 

[Cou]

already almost in year 6?! OAO that's impressive..

it's barely my third conquest and the price shipping thing is already up to 150k.... what would i have done if it wasn't harvesting time..

 

[Kairi-Kitten]

Ah I assume he is in year 2 month 5-6 since I believe you can't skip years for unlocking new things xD

And gosh darn my shipping rivalry prices are sky high nearly 1 mil TT_TT woe is me hahaha
