Ah, I've heard a tooon about 64, but I've never gotten the chance to play it myself. It's tempting though! Everyone has such good things to say about that game (though yes--I'd definitely love a version where you can play as a girl B))

And thank you for sharing your favourites--I'm always really interested to see what characters other people like the most! *u* I definitely agree about the "dating" thing too. I like it in a way because the progression feels more natural instead of the usual "close friends --> marriage" some of the older games had, but ugh. Restricting the heart events really makes it harder to choose who you like the best. The heart events in SoS are pretty short too, so I don't think that adding an additional like...two would have been too bad. 4 initial heart events, 2 for dating, and then marriage or something.
