New Game! But... Noticeable Problems... (Rune Factory 5)


So of course, yeah. I've played 3 and 4, and I liked them. Galge + Farming. Nice.

However, I'm 2 hours into the game and it has a couple of major problems, that I hope they address really quickly.

The big problem here is that I think they made the game 3D, but didn't really have the technology to do so well. The game stutters, a lot. Going into a house and then leaving always causes the game to stutter a moment in order to load the map.

And I don't know if the stuttering is the cause, but during conversations, the text appears slightly quicker than the character portrait. And this happens in every conversation, so it isn't exactly ignorable.

I don't think the base system has any problems, but at least fix the stuttering. I don't know if the conversation character portrait problem is on purpose or not, but the stuttering definitely isn't intentional.

Also the OP is like Jojo or Bleach. Weird.
