The 7th Rune Factory game, and the first new entry for the Nintendo Switch note Second overall, counting Rune Factory 4 Special. It was announced in the February 2019 Nintendo Direct and launched in Japan on May 20, 2021, with a scheduled Chinese/Korean release September 2, 2021, and an international release on March 22, 2022. The game is the first in the series to be fully developed by Marvelous AQL after the series' initial developer, Neverland Co., filed for bankruptcy in November 2013.After collapsing in the middle of a journey, the bewildered protagonist awakens to the sound of someone screaming for help. All around them rise the trees of an unfamiliar forest, and they realize they've forgotten everything but their own name. Another scream brings them to their senses. The protagonist rushes toward the voice and saves a young girl from a monster attack. Before their strength gives out, they manage to bring her back to a nearby town called Rigbarth. After learning the protagonist has amnesia, the grateful townsfolk invite them to work with a peacekeeping organization known as SEED until their memories return.And so Rigbarth's newest ranger starts their life in this idyllic town. As they strive to protect Rigbarth from threats great and small, the protagonist becomes embroiled in a conflict that could change the fate of the world itself... | |

Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_11311505 | comment |
Secret A.I. Moves: Once leveled up enough, villager party members can use instantly the ultimate attack of their weapons without needing to finish the long combo you must do to normally perform them. Some of them like Misasagi and Radea also have unique attacks related to their boss forms you cannot learn anywhere. | |

Early Game Hell | |
Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_1527d90d | comment |
Early Game Hell: Rune Factory 5 keeps the tradition of a rough early game well and alive. You'll barely have RP do to the minimum necessary for farming, but it does get progressively better as you become stronger and require less RP to perform actions. Especially once you get a kitchen and access to RP recovery recipes. | |

Item Caddy | |
Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_16f2bb43 | comment |
Item Caddy: Throwing detrimental food items like Failed Dishes and Object Xs at monsters is one way to fight them (and can be quite powerful against bosses), and the game includes items such as the Throwing Ring to support this playstyle. Elsje and Simone also fight like this— Elsje throws powerful food at you to heal you (and it's possible to farm rare food off her in an Ascended Glitch), while Simone throws poisons like Object X at monsters to harm them. | |

Now, Where Was I Going Again?: Each save file has a reminder to where you should go next to progress in the story "To: [name of place]" so you don't feel lost if you stop playing the game for a while. If you have no active story quests (or have finished the game) it just says "To: Wherever you want to go". | |

Necessary Drawback: Just like in previous games Foods are powerful but can be tough to consume in the middle of really big fight, but Recovery Potions of all types are instantly used preventing this issue, it also prevents you from overriding one food buff for another, especially if the meal is difficult to make. | |

Ambiguous Situation: The time in-universe between Rune Factory 4 and 5 is left intentionally vague, however, dialogue from Doug and Margaret imply that at least a few decades have passed. How and why Misasagi turned into a monster and whether being able to is normal for were-animals is never addressed. | |

Leaked Experience: Monsters in your monster barn will get some of the EXP and level up even if they're not in your party. This is important for Woolies, Cluckadoodles and Buffamoos since higher level means they'll produce larger versions of their items. | |

Not the Intended Use | |
Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_20e20e99 | comment |
Not the Intended Use: Talking to characters has an unintended benefit early on in the game. Your RP slowly recovers over real time while standing still, and talking with someone pauses in game time. Livia, who is always downstairs from your room, can be used as a free RP refill while crafting if you don't mind waiting a couple real minutes and only costs you the few minutes of game time for moving between her and the crafting tables. The effectiveness of this wears off the higher your RP is, as the wait will be much longer, but by that point making food in large amounts to keep your RP up should be simple. Object X is prone to this. Normally, it's a Poison Mushroom you get by failing at mixing medicine, which rather nastily inflicts all the negative status effects in the game on the drinker. Which should make it trash... except for the fact that it can also be given to monsters to cripple them. This is intentional, but what makes it more unusual it also counts toward the gift threshold for taming them, and can be mass-produced quite easily, which makes it surprisingly useful as a general monster-taming tool. And since Object X can be made from almost anything, it tends to push this trope onto other items as well. Some weapon skills like Gust are meant to attack enemies, but can be also useful as a way to quickly dodge enemies if your dash wouldn't cut it. This time even Gust's item description mentions it. Failure in any sort of crafting is meant to be a waste of resources, but if you use something common like Iron to fail you can stack things like Object X, Scrap Metal+ and Disastrous Dishes which all have their strange uses. Additionally you can fail so many times a high level recipe you can push through the next skill level if you don't have any materials to craft it. The Rosary accessory is meant to despawn enemies and give you a break, but you can unequip and re-equip it to make enemies spawn fasternote don't break the Gates as they won't respawn if destroyed, though. This is particularly useful to farm items faster, especially with Gates that slowly spawns only one enemy at a time. | |

Next Tier Power-Up | |
Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_213288c6 | comment |
Next Tier Power-Up: Every next weapon, especially when the "main material" is different, like Iron, Bronze, Silver, is usually more powerful than the one that came before it. The leap in power between one weapon to another endgame weapon can be mind-boggling and that's without taking upgrades in consideration. | |

Aborted Arc: The game slowly but surely gives hints of Ares/Alice's past with a possible cause and even how they were involved in events in Rigbarth years ago during their childhood, but unfortunately it goes nowhere and the story ends with said mystery largely unsolved and their memories still lost save for the incident of Livia's resurrection and Priscila, but you get to see it only if you choose to date Priscila. | |

Ascended Glitch | |
Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_26ba32a3 | comment |
Ascended Glitch: Rune Factory 4 had certain party members who would heal the player by throwing items at them. However, it was possible to, with good timing and a little luck, dodge the thrown items and pick them up instead, some of which were rare end-game items that could then be used or sold at will. Rune Factory 5 not only included characters who heal the player this way, it made dodging the thrown items much easier to do, turning it from a tricky exploit into a secret early-game grinding technique to reward long-time fans. | |

Awesome, but Impractical: Starfall Crops. They sell for a good amount of money, but you need to find meteors the day after a very rare weather event, the meteor shower, and you're not even guaranteed to get starfall seeds from said meteors. They'll never be sold in stores and you cannot level them up with the sickle either. Even as gifts they are superfluous since there are always easier gifts to please those who like them or recipes that use these crops. | |

Beef Gate: You're free to explore all of Phoros Woodlands as early as your first day proper while geared up with only your humble Broadsword and Claymore, but if you venture a little too deep into it you'll face enemies that you cannot deal damage against and will knock you back to Rigbarth Clinic in one or two hits. If you're careful enough you can find some chests with powerful food for early game and maybe even magic or other stuff inside. A good sign that you're at a region you're not supposed to visit yet is seeing monsters with red names. If that happens it'd be best for you to simply run and avoid combat as much as possible. | |

Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_3121f1e6 | comment |
Noob Cave: Whispering Woods, the first dungeon. It's a small, straightforward dungeon with very little danger and low level enemies. It's mostly there to teach players the ropes of the game and make sure they're getting comfortable with the combat system. | |

Money Sink | |
Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_3202932e | comment |
Money Sink: Once you've unlocked the upgrades for it, the Crystals for your Farm Dragons can become this. Crystals affect an entire field when used and since your fields can be expanded and become so large it can become cumbersome to maintain all of them manually at late game. Each Crystal comes at a 50.000G each and you need from 1 to 6 to trigger their effects. The level 3 expansions are this. You need thousands of Lumber and Material Stone and it's very impractical to get them on your own, so you might use a lot of money to buy them from Heinz's rotating stock and upgrade everything. Flowerstruck has permanent stat boosting items for sell when you renovate it twice... But they come at a ridiculous prices with the cheapest one costing over a million gold. Heinz's rotating stock might be a huge money sink since he'll sell almost anything (with a few exceptions), including rare boss items, the ones that buying more than a handful can easily get you to burn millions of gold. | |

Game-Breaking Bug | |
Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_33ca811a | comment |
Game-Breaking Bug: Due to being written in Unitynote which is more difficult to optimize for Switch specifically, but easier to release cross-platform the Switch version has major performance issues, usually in the form of lag, and may crash randomly. There is an autosave feature, but a failure to manually save often can easily put players back a day, forcing players to make up lost progress. Patches have been implemented to address these issues, but some problems persist and more patches are on the way. | |

Boring, but Practical | |
Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_39b8d3d6 | comment |
Boring, but Practical: Short Swords are the easiest weapon to pick up and fight with since they don't have any tricks or quirks you have to get used to. Together with a good shield it makes for a good balance between offense/defense. Spells like Cure and Cure All do just exactly what they mean: they heal you, and if you're close enough, your allies. Far from being flashy and awesome, but vital to keep your party alive and well. Some foods are easy to make and while not giving a lot of stat bonuses they recover a ton of RP: One of them is Toast; it can be easily made with Flour and Oven and a Cooking Skill of 21 will recover 800 RP which is a lot for early to mid-game. Another one is Hot Milk that can be made with a Pot and Cooking Skill of 17 and recovers even more, about 1000 RP at Level 1, if you've tamed a Buffamoo and raise its FP you'll get higher-leveled Milk for a stronger Hot Milk which recovers even more RP. Similarly, Boiled Egg takes only one Egg and a Cooking Skill of 18 and is a great item early on to restore RP and heals considerably more than Hot Milk; which is good for you and to keep monsters from tiring out when doing farm work at early game. Using recipes that use one item, or commonly found ones, and require a higher level than you have in Forging, Crafting, Cooking, or Chemestry is a good way to level your skill up, even more so if you have plenty of RP restoring items. The Heart Pendant is a simple accessory that only increases your skill growth. Is it boring? Yep. Is it useful? Extremely. | |

Magikarp Power | |
Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_3f0310d6 | comment |
Magikarp Power: The "Catching" skill which you train by using the Seal ability starts off unimpressive using a lot of RP to keep an enemy paralyzed only for a second or two, but as you level it up it can be a life saver if you want to keep a dangerous monster you can't quite deal with yet or to keep a monster you want to tame out from the battle until you clean up the area. Magic Staves. At the start they're clunky and difficult to make due to the need of always finding materials to upgrade them. Late to endgame they have great damage potential and staff wielding party members can nuke enemies, or use party heals very often. | |

Recycled Soundtrack: Not in the game itself, but the Record Player from Palmo's Shop lets you hear music from every past game and 5 itself. Rune Factory 1 to 3 have only its seasonal themes available, but 4 has more options. Frontier and Oceans has most of its soundtrack available to play. Just like in the previous game you can use Directives to change the BGM from the current game to other previous games (only the town's seasonal BGM, though), but you must have the rank of "Expert Ranger" in order to unlock the Directive for them. | |

Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_41d9aaef | comment |
Brainwashed: Happens to a lot of characters, including most of Rigbarth, during the story, with Radea being a notable case, as her brainwashing is essential to the main conflict. All cases result in the Brainwashed acting differently from their usual selves in way that makes them more sub-servant to the Big Bad and the Big Bad's plans. Radea's brainwashing by Gideon causes her to act more rashly, thoughtlessly, and violently than she normally is, and the mass brainwashing that affects the whole town makes everyone affected lethargic, weak-willed, and depressed. | |

Artwork and Game Graphics Segregation | |
Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_49354751 | comment |
Artwork and Game Graphics Segregation: Seemingly all of the character portraits and in-game character models have at least one major inconsistency between them, with the most obvious being hair colors being wrong, such as Lucas having either gray (portrait) or pitch black hair (model) and Gideon either being a regular blond (model) or a platinum blond (portrait). Another common place for errors are eye colors being off, such as Beatrice's eyes either matching the shade of blue in her crown (portrait) or being distinctly cyan instead (model), or make-up or markings being absent. Naturally, once the game came out on Steam, a bunch of mods on Nexus Mods sprang up to fix some of these inconsistencies one way or another. | |

Luckily, My Shield Will Protect Me: Shields start off rather unimpressive with only small boosts in Def, but later shields give a lot of defense and, sometimes, great resistance against status effects. Two-handed weapons will make the shield give only half of its bonuses and Dual Blades/Fists will not give you any bonus at allnote Unless you crossforge it with a Light Ore. | |

Not Completely Useless | |
Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_54ec2f0c | comment |
Not Completely Useless: Scrap Metal+ (rarely gotten in failed Forging) when used as material makes all weapons deal 1 damage. But if you use a Love Crystal to forge another weapon with Scrap Metal+ it can create a helpful weapon for taming monsters, especially weaker ones. Additionally they're great for farming Double/Ten-fold Steel from Gemsquirrelsnote previously known as "Mineral Squeeks" since they have abysmally low HP and drop these items when they get hit, so dealing 1 damage is actually a good thing against them. | |

This is also how the item inheritance mechanic functions. For instance, if you want an accessory with 4 properties you'll need craft it with the accessories you to inherit its abilities then have Darroch/Martin check on it and hope the newly crafted one got all of them. The chances of it happening are rather low, so prepare for a lot of reloading... | |

Gameplay and Story Segregation | |
Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_6320eced | comment |
Gameplay and Story Segregation: It is perfectly possible for characters to refer to you as a SEED ranger in heart events even if the player character has already left SEED in the main story. The cut-scenes don't take into account shop upgrades and unlocked items. For example, one of Reinhard's events features him buying a cucumber from the general store when it's quite likely that the general store in-game neither sells cucumbers nor cucumber seeds. Events in general are isolated from each other and the greater world. This can result in the events screen mentioning that Julian is missing, while Julian is with his family in front of the player. In-game, the player has access to a teleportation spell that is quick, easy to use, and not implied to be able to tracked, with its only limitation being that it can only take the main character to previously visited places. The events and cut-scenes act like this spell doesn't exist, as it would make things such as patrolling the town's borders pointless when someone can just teleport away from the town without physically crossing the town's border in an instant. The were-animal language apparently incorporates a lot of gestures and non-verbal communication, but none of it is seen in game due to limited animations. | |

Guide Dang It! | |
Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8 | comment |
Guide Dang It!: Monster taming isn't really explained in depth and most of times you'll be just flinging items and hoping for the best. What else you can do: you can use the Brush tool up to 15 times, lower the monster's HP, hit it a bunch of times with a Love element weapon and use specific items to increase the odds of taming a monster. One thing to note is that boss monsters will accept only very specific gifts for a chance of being tamed. Tamed monsters have their "favorite" gifts just like villagers. Unlike villagers they never speak to you, so the only way to find out is trying and guessing. Usually what they drop/produce is a safe bet, but not all of them are like this. Ever noticed that subtle padlock icon when you lock-on to bosses? When it goes away it means you can use your Seal spell to paralyze and maybe get an extra item from them. Do you want a fast charging Farm Tool? Forge a Rod with Sweet Potato (yes, seriously) and then forge the Farm Tool with the Rod and a Light Orenote and the quick charging effect do stack with a Magic Ring for an even quicker charge. Don't expect to hear about it anywhere in the game. Learning the unintuitive inheritance mechanic when crafting equipment on your own is a lesson in masochism. Even more so when stuff like Light Ores and Magic Staves are involved. Creating a decent Magic Staff takes a lot of trial and error and the game makes no effort to let you know what materials will give what effects to them. How Rare Cans and 4-Leaf Clovers aid in increasing item drop chances can be very confusing. Rare Can and Clover effects stacks, but multiple of them do not and each party member can have equipment that aids with item drop rate, which includes the Happy Ring. With you and three party members with Rare Can in their weapons, Happy Rings on each (including you) and other piece of equipment with a 4-Leaf Clover (Giant Clovers make no difference), you can bring the drop odds of the Null Symbol from an abysmal 0.2% to 18.8%. | |

Noob Bridge: Everlasting Darkness forces players to step up their game and will teach them to prepare themselves if they want a reasonable chance of clearing it. This area constantly drains your RP and you might be out of it in no time meaning you won't be able to use any magic, punishing player's overreliance on Cure Alls, rune abilities or ultimate attacks. This part of the game might also force the player to prepare themselves with plenty of food and be careful with combat as there are enemies that will punish them with hard hitting defensive magic or downright One-Hit Kill. | |

Character Customization | |
Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_8aaa6f4f | comment |
Character Customization: Just like previous games there's an inordinate number of skills your character can get better at to increase their HP, RP and reduce RP consumption. Once you expand the bakery Yuki will sell different types of clothes too. Headgear will show in every character, no matter how silly it looks. | |

Rocket-Tag Gameplay | |
Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_8b0a127 | comment |
Rocket-Tag Gameplay: Increasing the level from enemies many times (to the point of thousands) will result in this. Your defense, if high enough, will hold up well, but some of the more dangerous enemies and bosses, especially bosses from Rigbarth Maze, will be able to knock you out in a few hits, but since their HP don't scale up very well with their levels they will also go down easily if your gear is strong enough. Fights might end up becoming a matter of who lands the first good hit. | |

Took a Level in Jerkass: Eliza is back here, but they're more snippy and standoffish than they were in Selphia. Woolies are more aggressive in this game. Previously only "naked", wool-less, Woolies would attack you on sight, now even regular ones will try to beat you up if you get close enough. | |

Wham Episode | |
Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_8e20979 | comment |
Wham Episode: The first one comes after defeating the boss of Atohl's End: Oswald sics the Dark Dragon on Ares/Alice and Scarlett, but the dragon turns against him as well with Oswald realizing his "partner" had betrayed him. With nothing else to lose he reveals the one who's been aiding him: Warden Gideon from SEED. The revelation shocks Ares/Alice enough to have them quit SEED until they decide whether or not they can be trusted again. At the end of their mission in Bandit King's Old Base Ares/Alice come across the girl who reveals her true form as the Dark Dragon. Moreover, she mentions they've done something terrible to her sister which is the reason she hates them so much. Later on Captain Livia reveals not only she knows the Dark Dragon, she is also a dragon as well— the sister of the Dark Dragon. The conclusion of Everlasting Darkness has Ares/Alice finally confronting Radea, the Dark Dragon, then learning how Gideon manipulated her and his ultimate goal. It is also when Radea accepts to live in Rigbarth, albeit slightly reluctantly. | |

Suspicious Videogame Generosity: If a Save Point that isn't at the entrance of a dungeon is nearby, then typically, so is a boss fight. And if there's Rune Flowers or Rune Crystals nearby, that's doubly the case. (Though that also has the benefit of letting you warp to the book, break the flowers/crystals, and then return home to use your RP up on whatever your task-of-the-day might be.) | |

Luck-Based Mission | |
Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_98b1dc8f | comment |
Luck-Based Mission: Enemy random drops, especially from bosses, which can be fought only once a day, is purely based on chance. So, if you want a material for that powerful weapon you might need to do a lot of Save Scumming or be very patient. Monster taming is based purely on chance. You can do a few things to increase the odds of taming them, but in the end all you can do is gift them an item and hope they'll accept. Most stores have at least a few items that are on a rotating stock, so, for example, if you want a fish that's out of season from Hina's, or one random item from Heinz's shop, it might take a few days (or day resets) to get exactly what you want. This is also how the item inheritance mechanic functions. For instance, if you want an accessory with 4 properties you'll need craft it with the accessories you to inherit its abilities then have Darroch/Martin check on it and hope the newly crafted one got all of them. The chances of it happening are rather low, so prepare for a lot of reloading... Sword and Shield plants have random status upon being harvested. You may get a plant sword that's as weak as your first weapon, or something that far outclasses anything you can currently craft, and the same goes for the plant shield, you could get something like a useless shield with almost no status, or something that grants you a massive STR/INT boost. Higher level Sword and Shield seeds grant a chance to receive bigger boosts as well. | |

Interface Spoiler: Mild example: The Record Player that can be bought in Studio Palmo can play music from late to endgame areas and can spoil how further you have to go in the game. There are a few ways to notice whether the chest is a real one or a Chest Monster: 1) Check the mini-map before opening a chest. Does it have a red dot? If it does, beat the living crap out of it or, 2) try to lock-on on it, if it does then it's a monster, 3) Check if the chest has a golden arrow icon above it, if it has, it's safe to open, or 4) look at the keyhole, if it has an eye instead it's a monster. | |

Makes you run faster, a nod to how fast she used to run in Trampoli/Fenith. It even makes you kick large clouds of dust like she did too. Magic Shot is also back, and still shaped like Marian's trumpet-like syringe tool. Bonus point for being a staff weapon that actually works like a spear (or syringe) instead. | |

Mind Control: Runes are part of every living being and by manipulating this one can control their feelings and minds with the possibility of making them submissive or aggressive. At one point Gideon attempts to do this with the entire populace of Rigbarth using their soulsphere data and Radea. Radea herself had her runes manipulated which made her far more violent especially towards Ares/Alice after being fed the lie an Earthmate like them killed her sister. | |

Dashing still gives a decent burst of speed enough to help you dodge dangerous stuff in combat.

Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_be3e7584 | comment |
Brutal Bonus Level: Rigbarth Maze, inside the Guiding Tower. It's full of powerful enemies and holds the materials to craft the best equipment in the game, but becomes available only after the main story is completed. The order to unlock it becomes available immediately on new save files at the steep price of 3000p, but going inside it is not recommended at all since every monster there is more powerful than the ones you face at the last dungeon of the main story. | |

More Friends, More Benefits | |
Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_bfa2f64c | comment |
More Friends, More Benefits: Most of the love interests have their stories locked behind dating and usually within the last event before marriage (meaning that the player has to do all of the events before marriage). Some of this love-interest-specific information is introduced as part of the main story to boot, so players are required to see it, only for it to seemingly be completely dropped should the player not date a certain character, outside of the player looking it up outside of the game or playing another save file. Please note that the game does allow players to date multiple characters at once, but, once the protagonist is wed, all of these events become no longer accessible. The Steam version also has achievements for dating everyone. Fuuka's first event in particular confused players due to how abrupt and seemingly out-of-place the last 2 days of it was. The last two days feature a dark spot, the kind bosses appear from, appearing in 2 places on the map outside of Rigbarth. The scenes before this were Fuuka showing the player character the forge and eating cupcakes, with seemingly nothing connecting these events to the dark spot. Some players even mistook what was happening as part of the main story. The full context of what is happening is only revealed by dating Fuuka and getting all of her events. After beating the boss in Belpha Ruins Depths, Priscilla appears briefly when the player character remembers a bit from before getting amnesia that is related to Livia being resurrected/unsealed. Outside of part about Livia being resurrected/unsealed, the scene is dropped almost immediately after and won't be picked up again should the player not date Priscilla and get all of her events. Somehow, Ryker knows the location of Basara's Hideout, which the protagonist needs to find for the main story for progress. The game won't explain why nor will he ever go back there unless you date him. Beatrice's reason for staying in Rigbarth is only stated in the main game as being important and top secret, and her introduction is mandatory for the plot to continue. You only find out what it is and what's at stake if she fails if you date her and get all of her events. | |

Surpassed the Teacher: People of Rigbarth will comment on your skill growth giving you advice and a few pointers if they're low. Once said skill grows enough they'll mention you're on par with them and, eventually, that they're no longer on your level anymore. A few will even wonder if they should be taking lessons from you instead. For some villagers, this is accompanied by a friendship bonus, as they genuinely want to be your friend at that point. | |

Outside-the-Box Tactic: Wanted Monsters are powerful and early to even mid-game players can struggle to lower their HP enough to capture them. However, most of them are not immune to Status Effects and you can do something like throwing an Object X or do anything to poison them and let the Poison Percent Damage Attack work until they're weak enough to be captured. | |

Poison Mushroom | |
Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_cb5cf4a5 | comment |
Object X is prone to this. Normally, it's a Poison Mushroom you get by failing at mixing medicine, which rather nastily inflicts all the negative status effects in the game on the drinker. Which should make it trash... except for the fact that it can also be given to monsters to cripple them. This is intentional, but what makes it more unusual it also counts toward the gift threshold for taming them, and can be mass-produced quite easily, which makes it surprisingly useful as a general monster-taming tool. And since Object X can be made from almost anything, it tends to push this trope onto other items as well. | |

Take Your Time: As usual there's no true time limit even though situations may seem dire.

And Your Reward Is Parenthood: As is tradition for the series.

Their personalities can be determined by Dialogue Tree options before they're born, or you can leave it up to chance. Like in 4, the children can also be potential party members. | |

Anti-Frustration Features | |
Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3 | comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: Rune Factory 5 keeps and adds several small, but important quality of life changes to its gameplay: One of the biggest complaints about Rune Factory 4 was that the events occurred completely at random, with no real indication that they were going on. Rune Factory 5 adds icons that indicate both character events and story events, leaving out a lot of guesswork. You now have access to 2 quick slots to swap between a farm tool and a weapon of your choice which alleviates menuing a bit when exploring dungeons, or anywhere you'd need to constantly swap between weapon and tools. The quick menu can be customized so you can quickly access things like Equipment, Food, Medicine, Rune Skills for any slot. You can choose what you want to see and want you don't so the quick menu doesn't get too cluttered as well. You can quickly pick up items of the same type by holding a button. This helps alleviate harvesting crops and getting items since the backpack stashing animation is noticeably slower than before. Speaking of picking up items, most items dropped by monsters, lumber and material stones are picked automatically by walking over them as well. You can drop all lumber/material stone into the Material Bin, likewise you can put all weeds (but not colored grasses nor Medical or Antidote) into the Fertilizer Bin and all fodder into the Fodder Bin instantly without having to pick one stack at a time. All storage types (Storage Box, Refrigerator...) are interlinked and you can access all of them without having to physically go to them which helps a lot when storing many types of items. You no longer need to have a monster/townsfolk into you party for the Cure All spell to work on them. This helps a lot in keeping monsters healthy while they perform farm work if you don't have enough food for them. AI allies will refrain from attacking Gates, they'll usually only hit them by accident as collateral damage if they're fighting something that's too close to them. This helps prevent issues if you want to farm enemies in certain locations. Unlike the previous game, environmental damage will not affect the AI allies which helps immensely in keeping them healthy since most dungeons have at least one or two hazards that can be difficult to avoid even for players. | |

Nothing Exciting Ever Happens Here | |
Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_f25493f4 | comment |
Nothing Exciting Ever Happens Here: Rigbarth is stated by many people, Captain Livia included, to be a backwater town where very little happens. With that said, Rigbarth seems to attract a bad deal of people trying to scam its populacenote (Murakumo's, Lucas', Cecil's events). | |

Wake-Up Call Boss | |
Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_f4a0408f | comment |
Wake-Up Call Boss: Leviathan. It has several hard hitting attacks and it doesn't leave itself open to attacks as much as previous bosses. While not the hardest fight in the game, it makes sure you don't just stand there and tank hits, even with proper elemental protection. | |

Never Say "Die" | |
Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_f51c5f3c | comment |
Never Say "Die": This entry insists that Livia and Radea did not die - they were just sealed for so long that they were reduced to bones, which is not the same as dying. Likewise, they were not resurrected from their skeletal remains, but unsealing them somehow returns them to a fully living state instead of a skeleton or, in Radea's case, a skull. | |

Equipment-Based Progression | |
Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_fa59871 | comment |
Equipment-Based Progression: Characters rely much more on their equipment than their levels, which only gives them a modicum of status necessary for combat. Late game the only reason levels are still important is so they'll increase HP high enough to endure the large amount of damage enemies will dish. | |

The Power of Friendship | |
Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_faece9aa | comment |
The Power of Friendship: At the end when the Fathomless Dread possesses Ares/Alice the only thing that stops it from escaping Audea are the prayers from their friends in Rigbarth. It's enough to get Livia and Radea time to recover their energies and expel it from their body. Gameplay wise, having 3 FP with someone, or the Companion Crest, allows you to invite them to your party until 7PM. At higher FP they'll stick around for as long as you need them. Monsters also become stronger the more you befriend them. Early on it can easily reach to the point they will the ones protecting you, not the other way around when you first tamed them. Additionally, for item producing monsters, the more FP you have with them the higher will be level of the item produced by them. | |

Weapon Specialization | |
Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_fc148c2c | comment |
Weapon Specialization: Every townsfolk that can join your party starts with a weapon of their preference which allows them to use certain Rune Abilities. You change it (give Martin a Sword for example), but they won't use any Rune Ability unless they have the correct weapon type. | |

Not Rare Over There: Once a next tier ore starts showing up (Bronze, Silver, Gold, etc.) they usually stop being rare or scarce by the next dungeon. Usually. | |

Item Crafting | |
Rune Factory 5 (Video Game) / int_ff34c05a | comment |
Item Crafting: A staple in the series. It's divided in several categories: Cooking, Forging, Crafting and Chemestry. Item crafting is also surprisingly complex having an "inheritance" mechanic which allows you to build equipments with combined effects of other pieces. Using and mastering the crafting system is mandatory in order to create the truly game-shattering equipment. | |
