There’s already a lot of speculation going on about this building! It’s got a blue shield on it, and the door is on the second floor…it looks like there might be a shop or a guild on the bottom and a dwelling on the top…theories abound already, lol. You can also see a glimpse of two stair cases going down from in front of the house just before the house fades out of the video…maybe it goes down to farmland? Or leads down to a town?
Man, I love this part, where we all get to speculate. Even being wrong is fun! Especially if you’re really, weirdly wrong, lol. I really like how it looks so far. I do wonder…I think that house is probably concept art since this game appears to be 3D and that house is most definitely 2D. Not sure, of course…maybe they somehow manage to use the two together, but…oh man, they show me a little, and immediately I want more. I’m happy to have gotten this much though…I thought all they’d tell us during the live stream was what the carryover data was going to do!
Kikki
Though now that we know the carryover data will bring two RF4 characters into RF5, I really wonder which two characters it is! Ordinary NPCs? Candidate characters? Maybe Lest and Frey themselves?

Way more info gathered by you than me. I went, nice artwork, not much to go off of yet. I’m not worried where it is going, I’ll be buying it.
Kikki
Information-gathering is my basic nature. 🙂 I’m not at all worried about how RF5 is going to turn out and it’s a definite buy for me, but I LOVE this part, where we get little bits of info here and there and get to theorize and dream up explantions to patch what we don’t know and what we do know together 🙂
Kikki
Hey Kikki, what’s an explantion? 😛
SkeletalK
Wow I didn’t even notice that much, I’m so curious where they are going to go with this, the RF series has always done something new and big for each game and they do so well at it. I have no doubts it will be incredible
Kikki
Me too! Very excited to start seeing character reveals or a description of RF5’s setting!

Thank you for your comment James and Kiki! I’m also very excited to find out more about the gameplay for Rune Factory 5. Will it be similar or go a completely new direction? Loving those beautiful updated graphics on the monsters! That Wooly ❤????.

When the Wooly appeared, I was done for – this whole trailer is so beautiful, the music is amazing, the graphics are so damn cute and I fell in love with woolys all over again!!! The building got me thinking too, it may be a base or something on the farm – I kind of doubt it’s a random house from the town. Very prominently featured!
It makes me so happy to get news about this game <3 Release can't come soon enough!
Kikki
The woolies ARE really cute, but my favourite Rune Factory monsters have got to be the elemental fairies. Those little ladies are not just adorable, like flying dolls, they’re *vicious*. My favourite fighting companions 🙂 Hard to tame, but so worth it! Looking forward to seeing them again.
