Anyone played this game? It came out a bit over a year ago but I just found out very recently that it shares its director and scenario writer with Another Eden (Daisuke Taka and Hiroto Furuya, respectively). I haven't seen anyone here mention the connection before, so I thought it might be worth a post.

The game was marketed as a farming sim but it's more of a traditional JRPG with farming sim elements (kind of like how Persona 3-5 integrate dating sim elements). You end up balancing things like managing the farm (to earn money) with dungeon crawling, sidequests, and progressing the plot, which takes a sci-fi / time travel turn almost immediately.

I just started playing it a few days ago a

I'm sure most people here already did this days ago, but a quick heads up that the fafnir medals you can get are capped at 50 per week, resetting when the other weekly stuff does (ie next daily reset). This first week we have about half as much time to do it since the system was only put in place on Friday. So if you haven't gotten your 50 medals yet, now would be good time to do so!

They can drop from any quest (besides stuff that doesn't cost stamina/wings) so just grind whatever you need to.

Just noticed this and thought I should mention it - after clearing chapter 9 endeavors will be added for augmenting your characters and wyrmprints and for resetting augments. The cost of resetting augments is 20k rupies per point removed, but if you've already added multiple points you have to pay for all of them at once.

So, the first thing you should do after clearing chapter 9 is add a single point of augmentation to one character and one wyrmprint and then reset it. That way you only pay 20k instead of the 200k you'd have to pay if you used all 10 you are given. After that you can go ahead and add the full 10 to your favorite character and/or wyrmprint and leave them there, or just save

Cygames are graciously allowing us to hold onto our tickets until free rolls are over this year, so please don't be that person who uses it right away and then rolls whoever they ticketed from roulette afterwards. Thank you.

Gains Hellfire's Stamina (medium stamina) at lv150. I honestly didn't see this coming, but fire finally has an alternative option to enmity grids!

Definitely considering barring mine (pending calculations) even though I run crimfins just because it will probably help my damage earlier in the fight when I'm still at high HP. Stamnity is the new hotness, after all.
