Used my limited graphic design skills to make a chart of all the characters Rosalie has romanced in (almost) every farming sim I've played with her. Lol I'd always wanted to do something like this and I'm pretty happy with the result.

I made a free to use template of it on the right if anyone else wants to show off who they romanced. Feel free to decorate/doo what you like with it- just link back here if you use it so other people can find it o/

Now, though many of these games involved premade mcs- I've played as some variation of Rosalie in games for as long as I could remember.

I noticed there's a trend that popped up in her choices that I think is as interesting as it is amusing. Ofc, most of these choices were just my personal favorite bachelors of that game, but they were still used to devlop her, and I hadn't realized how much she leaned towards certain professions, personalities, ect. I've concluded my girl loves a hardworking boy whose brooding but sweet- or a golden retriever Marlin: Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life was my first Farming Sim. I didn't get to play the female version until much later in life. So my choice of who'd I/Rosalie married had been pretty decided lonnng before I finally got to play it. But honestly even though I like Marlin, he's kind of the default choice because I didn't care for Rock and Gustafa- and Rosalie wouldn't either. I think if I had ever gotten to play HMDS:Cute I might have liked him more- or she would have married Griffin-

Blue | Harvest Moon: Magical Melody / Friends of Mineral Town: Loved Grey/Blue. (Let's face it their pretty much the same character). Upset the remake took away his hat. Little off topic, but even though character customization wouldn't be a thing in these games for years- I'd used to imagine my character had pink hair like Popuri LOL

Vaughn | Harvest Moon: Sunshine Islands: Vaughn was the first time I ever was head over heels for a character in one of these games- I just adored everything about him and I don't think it's hard to see why. Once she got to know him better, Rosalie def would have been hella smitten for this cowboy- (Also Vaughn walked so Logan could run-)

Owen | Harvest Moon Animal Parade: So Owen is an unexpected deviation. Most of these choices are also my favorites, but when I first played through HM:AP Gil was actually my favorite bachelor. I could have made him and Rosalie work, but it just didn't feel right. So after looking them all over I think she def would have preferred Owen

Dylas | Rune Factory 4: One of my favorite games from the genre- and I think the cast of romanceable characters was STACKED. Dylas was my favorite because he was seriously SO damned cute in all his events 🥰 Also think it's kinda funny he's a horse guy and Rosalie has a lot of horse motifs herself-

Alex | Stardew Valley: REALLY unpopular opinion incoming! I've put over 500+ hrs into SV 😭 but in all that time, I've just never clicked with any of the characters. Which really sucks because this is the first game I ever got to play as Rosalie. Alex and Sam were my favs, but I think Rosalie would lean more towards Alex.

Logan | My Time At Sandrock: Logan 😍💖🥰Just, guh- I LOVE everything about him and MTAS so damn much. Especially because the hyper fixation I had with this game/character was what led me to finalize Rosalie's design/character at long last. I developed so much content for him and Rosalie I never got to share 😭hope I can someday!

Mark | Coral Island: God I love big men who love animals- and Rosalie does too. 💦🥰 Honestly, even though he started out as one of my favorites (later to be replaced by Shark man hoo hoo haw), I wished more of his heart events focused on his relationship with the player instead of the dog. It was really cute at first but like 6 of the 8 cutscenes were about it and most of the time he never even interacted with your character. Was disappointing ngl.

Nokk | Roots of Pacha: Now- Nokk is not currently a romanceable character, but I'm hoping the future update will add him to the roster. 🫠💔Cause this is another case where I LOVE the game to pieces but none of the characters speak to me- aside from the one I can't have- Hayden: Fields of Mistria: and last but not least- Hayden. He just completely encapsulates so much of what Rosalie finds attractive, it's a little funny. I'm waiting until the game is finished to continue playing and I can't wait to see what the future holds for him.

The following will include some honorable mentions that I didn't include because I didn't have anymore room on my template/they weren't a farming sim/ect.

First up! Nathaniel from Sunhaven!<3 Feel like this responsible captain of the guard would work well with Rosalie. Honestly, there weren't really any choices that felt right for her, but for once in many years my main playthrough of the game ended up being with a different character and I had someone pre-picked out for her. So there lots of great choices, just none that suit Rosalie well.

slight redesign of the villagers in roots of pacha

they're mostly the same except some outfits simplification, more body types, details like freckles added, and hair colors and styles changes when characters were too similar. some of them had body paints that were ignored not from me thinking it's uncool but cause i colored them all the same day and was tired lol

Ada: If you burn out your candle, you'll have no light for you or anyone else. Jag: A long time ago, I was lost in darkness. That's why I make sure we always have light. Garrek: Sometimes...I don't think I explain my ideas well. It's like all the words want to come out at once, and then I'm not sure what to say...

Touk Boyfriend headcanons

If you have animals on your farm, he will often visit to play with them and sometimes will bring Beast along for playdates;

You both are still often busy with your own clans, which means he can't see you all the time, but when he does run into you he'll make sure to go over to you, no matter how little time he has;

When he has extremely little time, he might just run up to you and give you a kiss before running off again- As long as you know you're loved;

His sisters were the first to notice he was into you, as he would not stop talking about you despite not making much efforts to socialize with others before;

He might be a big guy that until shortly thought he had to act tough all the time, but when you just started dating he was actually a bit shy about initiating physical contact. He quickly got used to it though and now very much enjoys displaying his affection in such ways;

He will get flustered and lose his train of thought if you start kissing his face while he's talking, but he secretly enjoys it even if he forgot what he was trying to say;

Beast joins for dates 8 out of 10 times. Even if Touk decides to not have him join, he usually shows up anyways, but he just can't stay mad at the little guy;

He's not some big poet- But he wished he could be so he could express better how much he loves you. Without realizing he shows it in different ways though. By the way his eyes are on you the moment you're around, the way he spends time with you whenever he can, the way he brings small gifts and the tight hug he gives you when you need to part again

I picked up Roots of Pacha recently as my continued journey in trying as many farming Sim/cozy type games as I can, (before this was Sun Haven, which is fantastic. I adore the art and the character customization, and the skill points and leveling system!!)

And. Holy shit. Maybe it's because how the community is introduced, and how the community aspect works, but I find myself caring about the collective more in this game than I have in previous games? Granted, still no interest in romance (if that's even a thing in this game) but I like interacting with the different characters, and find myself contributing not just for the currency aspect, but because it actually helps the community unit. I love the art style, and the music, and the prehistoric vibe a lot.

10/10 do recommend for anyone who likes cozy games.

(I do also recommend Sun Haven from a gameplay aspect but apparently there's some shittiness with the game director or something, so apprehensive to recommend with my whole chest.....)

Videogames I wish were real #42

A farming game set in a world inspired by mesoamerican civilizations of the past such as the aztec and the maya. You'd get a lot of the usual gameplay mechanics of farming games (such as fishing, foraging, mining, etc), but the farming mechanics would feature some of the characteristic farming techniques of the region, such as floating gardens, raised bed farming for the swampy areas or terrace farming in the mountainous areas. Your crops would be staple mesoamerican crops, such as corn, beans, squash, cassava, cacao and peppers, but there would also be travelling merchants selling seeds from other regions, such as tomato or potato seeds. Instead of a sprinkler system, you could create irrigation channels for your crops. At the start, your settlement would be a small village, but as you progressed in the game you'd be able to expand and turn it into a prosperous town.

Similar games that actually exist: (and by this I mean farming games set in something different from the stereotypical setting of the genre. There are a lot of other farming games with different settings, but for this list I only picked the ones inspired by real cultures and civilizations) Roots of Pacha, Daomei Village, Litchi Town, Tales of Seikyu, Gaucho and the Grassland, Pathless Woods

Lesson learned in restarting Roots of Pacha after a somewhat false start, and I must admit farm/life sim games seen to always feel better the second time around, when you know enough to be confident and not feel like an idiot, but there's still enough to discover to spice things up :D

Ada: You're like a daughter to me. I love you. Voda: I love you too. Voda: I guess I'll be staying then.

Roots of Pacha gives me older harvest moon vibes. Like building up the town, learning about characters from heart events, and just having so much to do without feeling pressed for time. Its genuinely relaxing and a good niche in the farming sim genre that can stand alone with the content it has.
