The kingdom of Hyrule has been created!
I download the game yesterday, lots of fun so far, the beginning took a bit to get throught though. I'm on my 40th day, and my town is doing alright. We have two weapon shops, one item shop, one game hall, two bakerys, one park, two bilibords, and a heck of a lot of houses. But I have only a few minor problems with the game.
The days are too short, I wish they were at least two minutes longer.
I wish you could move or delete structures. I have a few places I made in the beginning that I wish they wereb't there any more.
I wish when I go into peoples houses, I could talk to them instead of just checking information, same with the shops.
That's about it really. But like I said, they're minor. But here's a question. Is there any way to get more or get ride of some of my adventuers? I have 5 or 6, but I wish I could get ride of them and see some of the other adventuers in my town. Also is there any way of moving structures? because i looked at the full size of my town, and althought it's big, i feel like pretty soon I'll have every space filled up and I wont be able to add any more houses.
The only thing I downloaded was the kings pirate uniform, 100 points, I like it, now I don't have to whear the same clothes every day.

Well for the 2 points I have put in bold they are both possible. First you can change when your bed time is. How? Im not too sure to be honest. All i know is that it involves calling chime and using raise morale. Then i think you need to talk to people more and then you get more time. Apparently you can stay up till just after night time.
And secondly later on you get a building that allows you to demolish other buildings. Once you demolish them the family goes with it. However when a house is built again that family comes back into that and there mood doesnt change or anything.
I havent done either of these myself but last night I read them in an faq on www.gamefaqs.com (http://www.gamefaqs.com). So check there if you wanna look for more info.

Thanks, now I know I'm not limited on making buildings now. And A Moggle told me howe to stay up later, i just haven't figure out how to yet.
And I figured out how to get more adventuers, so it's all good.
I also had my first holiday, and my people really liked that. On the holiday I spent 2000 on my people, just to show I care.

I've heard enough good stuff about this game that my preconceived opinion has been changed. After two things happen, I will download this game:
1. I can change my character names.
2. Dr. Mario is released.

At the beginning of the game you get to seect the name of your character, and your town.

I've read news all over the place that DLC is coming that will let you rename your adventurers.

If there's any DLC that I really want, it's new charcters. I hate always seeing 8 different people who look eactly the same, but with different names.

Wouldn't the race packs solve that problem? I'm assuming the characters of different jobs of different races all look different.

The whole pack is 800 points, or 300 points for each of the three races.

I checked the races pack, and that's not what I was talking about. I wanted more characters with different faces. It's because I always see one person talking to someone who looks exactly like him, and it's annoying

OK. I don't have the game so I guess I don't know what the exact problem is. I was under the impression that adding more races to the game would increase the variety of characters' appearances.

I think he's trying to say that there is only 1 race and they all share about 3 or 4 different apperances so if you have 10 people in town, it's like some of them are twins. Getting the race pack would add a little more diversity though as you could have more than Clavits.

Well, it is a downloadable title with just 250 blocks after all, that's the way to save space.
Speaking of which, is the race-pack worth to get? Will you get new kinds of houses that you can build?

I'm pretty sure (don't quote me on this) that the race pack gives you different race-specific houses. The races themselves add variety to your town, and each of them has a class specialty that makes them better as adventurers of a certain class. So it sounds like a little gameplay tweak and a little aesthetic tweak rolled into one expensive package.

Anyone know how to unlock Chime's Room?
been wondering the same thing, maybe you need to download some of her clothes?
Anyways Hyrule has been doing pretty good. I have 9999 gil, and 3500 of the building stuff. I have 20 houses, Including I think 6 big houses. Tw bakeries, one weapon shop, one armory, one item shop, one training place, one guild, one theif place, oe white and black mage shop, and two parks. along with 12 adventuers, with a pay ank of 60 gil, and a very happy city.
I'm in chapter three on day 96, this game is made up of pure fun.

I downloaded her extra outfit, but that does nothing.
Done the normal difficulty, ending with rank A. Made sure to save using gamesave 2 (Be warned, save over your gamesave after the credits and its bye bye town. :()

haven't gotten any add-ons (and don't plan to for a while if ever) but this is an absolutely fantastic game. I had the day off today and i played it for hours on end last night (for the first time) and today. I actually got to day 28 my first go-around but didn't understand/like my town layout so I started over and i am now on day 53. I've got parties and elementite to spare. Absolutely loving this for anyone who is on the fence it is a great game and worth the 1500 points.

Apparently, Chime's Room is part of the next lot of DLC coming this month (In Japan at least) from what I ve heard...

Just wondering, are the gaming halls useless? I've had one for like 2 months (in the game) and the guy keeps saying that he's never had one customer. Apparently it's meant for thieves, but I have 5 and none of them seam to go there. Why not?

Has any more DLC been introduced since the launch stuff? Just curious whether someone could keep us updated since my purchase decision is going to hinge on some DLC. ;)

It might have just been because it was late, i was in a bad mode, and pretty tiered. Actually my interest in video games has gone down quite a bit. Only a few games can hold my interest for more than 30 minutes.

I loved this game at the start, it was real fun, but now I'm at day 72 and nothing has happened for a long time... it's getting boring, all to do now is to send out adventurers to play final fantasy->visit shops and upgrade 'em->talk to people I pass by->go to sleep->repeat.

That's a deceptive way of saying it. More accurately, it's 1500 points for the full version, but 4800 points with all of the options add-ons.

What region are you getting the add-on prices from?
Anyway this a good game, even if the people in it are retards.
True story, a selkie in my town was talking about chimes perfect figure and how it must be because she is part selkie. She then wished that she could be reborn a selkie even though she already is one. I laughed after that one.

Ew, but Chime doesn't have a perfect figure. Maybe she was just trying to find something nice to say, since Chime is also "blessed" with a hideous face. :)

Yes. Every last one of them. Also, non-adventurer Selkie girls wear far less. I think selkies are where suggestive themes come into this game.
