• Guest, you're invited to help build our new TBT time capsule! It contains three parts, with some of its elements planned to open in 2029 and others not until the distant future of 2034. Get started in 2024 Community Time Capsule: Blueprints.

Fantasy Life General Thread

So far with the exception of a few plants, insects and honey, I have been hanging onto everything picked up just in case I should need it later on, what do the rest of you do?

I am hanging on to everything for now, but my pockets are getting quite full XD I wonder what I should keep and what not. I think I'll hang on to the main basic ingredients for blacksmithing/carpentry/tailoring, since I suspect we'll need them later on.

For me, especially the carpentry and tailoring items, since I will main my Archer Life and those Lives craft the equips I need =)

Does this game have a lot of repetitive grinding/ questing?
I'm afraid I cannot answer it yet. I have been playing for 3 hours max until now, and I've first focused on getting the jobs I really want (main: Archer, gather: Miner, Woodcutter, Angler, craft: Tailor and Carpenter)

I'll continue the main story with my Archer before concentrating on my other Lives, but I haven't been questing a lot yet =)

There are a lot of quests available though, so it has a lot of questing, but they're optional. But I think they're really fun to do! I try to take the NPC's quests that require stuff from the area I am currently in (East Grassy Plains) before continuing on.

So much to do, it really is a lot of fun, you can decide your own pace =D
 
Owh and another thing! I'll need someone to confirm this I think.

I collected enough Bliss Points to unlock a new Bliss present, but I didn't unlock one at the time cause I couldn't decide.
Later on, I collected once more enough Bliss points for a new present, but now I could only unlock 1. So I guess you need to decide immediately which present to take.

I am not entirely sure though, can someone confirm this?

Twice now when I have gone to check my Bliss Points I have been told I have enough points to collect two presents, and both times it has let me choose two of the options.

This might be a solution for those who have the DLC and want to play with people who don't have it.

For those who want to know what Origin Island looks like, check out this video (it's in French). If you want to avoid any real spoilers, you might want to stop watching at about 10:00 or so.

This game also has gifts you can receive similar to the post office in AC:NL. To get a Honey Pudding, go the post office, talk to the password clerk and input Reveria. :)

I entered the password all in capital letters the first time and was told it was incorrect, it must be exactly as Libra said Reveria and then I got my honey pudding, thanks for the tip, how did you find that out?

Thanks! I think I probably was just foggy minded after being away for 14 hours in the day for a field trip with university XD

I have bought the dlc today (obviously I cant use it yet), but once I can I will try to tell you guys about it in as much detail as possible c: Also I tried out online multiplayer for the first time last night, it is really good! You basically open your portal and people on your friend list that try to come enter your world in a matter of seconds, so you dont have to wait around like in New Leaf :D . The one thing that does annoy me is that when talking to people the keyboard is abcdefg instead of qwerty so it can get confusing to type :S

That will be great Emily, thank you.
 
I was bored so I looked up some of the latest/most in depth reviews of the game online which you may want to read if your unsure about buying it/if its not out where you live.. (x) (x) (x)

The game has been recieved fairly well in Europe which is great.. If it does this well in America we may have a sequel one day if it sells well but who knows :)

I also tried the multi player last night, and yes it really was great fun, but like you hated the keyboard and found it took ages to type out even three words. The fact that you can go out as a group in multi player to fight monsters is going to be a big success I think, much more fun that visiting friends in ACNL.

Yeah when we are all further into the game we will have to get a group together to beat all the Napdragon's in our worlds the Paladin award for that is 500 stars ;o
 
So far with the exception of a few plants, insects and honey, I have been hanging onto everything picked up just in case I should need it later on, what do the rest of you do?

I've sold a few things (flowers and such), but at this point in time I'm not sure what I'm going to need when, so I'm keeping most of the stuff I find. I'm probably going to have to start putting items in my closet, but it's kinda nice you can carry so many with you. The maximum is 300 but apparently if you have the DLC you can have up to 500.

Has anyone been to Al Malaak (however you spell it)

I've just started the chapter and entered the city, but my battery died so it's recharging now. I'll probably won't play today so it'll have to wait until tomorrow. I'm looking forward to it, though; I was very pleased with Port Puerto (which I haven't even fully explored yet).

Does this game have a lot of repetitive grinding/ questing?

I'd say you make it as repetitive as you want. There is a lot to do and each Life gives you EXP so you can level up and gain points you can allocate then. Certain stats help each other, like if you've put points into Strength as a Paladin, that's also going to help you as a Miner and such.

I collected enough Bliss Points to unlock a new Bliss present, but I didn't unlock one at the time cause I couldn't decide.
Later on, I collected once more enough Bliss points for a new present, but now I could only unlock 1. So I guess you need to decide immediately which present to take.

When you check your Bliss Points, you have to choose a present. The only way around is it to quit without saving (or I might be mistaken, but I seem to be unable to not choose a present). You don't have to check your Bliss Points, though; I know I have enough for a few but there's nothing I really want at this point so I haven't bothered yet to unlock them.

I entered the password all in capital letters the first time and was told it was incorrect, it must be exactly as Libra said Reveria and then I got my honey pudding, thanks for the tip, how did you find that out?

Yes, it's Reveria. The keyboard is in caps so if you don't pay attention you'll end up typing REVERIA which is incorrect. I saw a mention of it in an article I read somewhere. There are many more, but it's a matter of finding them.

The one thing that does annoy me is that when talking to people the keyboard is abcdefg instead of qwerty so it can get confusing to type :S

There are four quick messages you can assign. I'm thinking a good choice for two of them would be "Need help!" to let another player know you need help and "On my way!" to let another player know you're on your way. You can also assign gestures such as your character waving "Come here/This way". It's probably faster than typing words (which was something that also bothered me in AC:NL).

The game has been recieved fairly well in Europe which is great.. If it does this well in America we may have a sequel one day if it sells well but who knows :)

Yes, fun fact; now Amazon France says the game will be in stock again on October 7.

Do we get the stars in multi-player? Can someone confirm this? In any case, I'm nowhere near being able to even scratch the Napdragon, so it'll be a while before I try to fight him. :p

Yeah you do! I completed and Biggkitty completed a bunch of quests each when we went over to my game! :)

Yeah you definitely get stars in multi-player as my sister got tons when she started her game yesterday, the first time she went in the plains I was there defeating all the monsters for her and she unlocked so much, she didn't even have to beat the monsters/inflict any damage on the monsters herself as I did it for her. Also in online if you let someone else defeat a monster for you for the most part you only get +1 experience so your better off trying to get a few attacks in each if you get what I'm saying ;)
 
Every time I log on to the game, I get so tempted to buy the DLC even though I know I can't use it yet. But I don't want to get left not being able to multi player with others if they don't also have it.

So far is it only Emily that has weakened and bought it? I know I am going to want it, so as soon as others start to buy it, I will too
 
Awoohoo! :)

I just want to say, thanks to everyone here for getting me all hyped up. lol :p

By the time I actually get the game, you're all going to be over it and I'll be here alone, probably.

I feel like a little kid again, chasing after my older sister and cousin, trying to act grownup (by whining at them) to let me play too! XD

You're not alone! I'm still waiting for the NA release too. Camping out on this thread isn't helping much, hahaha.
 
I'm really struggling being a 'Magician' don't know which elements to use to fight the nasties.

I have the same problem....... Dollydaydream, we need you please to tell us what elements to use to fight what monsters.

I think Fire is used to fight "vegetable" nasties.

Following meeting up with a friend last night on multi player who had started all the lives, I am going to spend my day doing the same, maybe it is not a good idea, but everywhere we went she was covered in being able to do something

I wasn't quite sure who to ask, but have PM'd Prof. Gallows to ask if this thread could please be "stickied"

I am sure once the U.S. get their release this Fantasy Life game will take off with a vengeance

I agree BiggKitty :)
 
Here are some screenshots! I unlocked the option to take screenshots at lvl 5 or something, so you can do it really early! I believe after the first chapter? Not sure of it, but the guildmaster will tell you to go talk to the Link clerk (the middle clerk in the back of the Guild Office), and the clerk will unlock the screenshot option!
You can take screenshots by pressing 'Start'.

Here are some screenshots of mine!

Currently, I'm an Adept Archer with Apprentice Miner, Woodcutter, Angler and Tailor aside.
I'm wearing the Quill clothes set you can make as a Apprentice Tailor =D They're so cute! But I guess they're too hot once I get to Puerto Rico.
