Manual - Special Thanks

Monster Rancher Metropolis: Monster Rancher 4 Archive (PS2): Miscellaneous Q&A (Post New Questions Here) : Manual - Special Thanks

Well, I normally don't look at the book, but I did, and found something interesting.

In the back, where they list Special Thanks, they list Lisa (and website) and Fenrick. I just wanted to take this time to thank them for all their help with the game, and their dedication to make the game what it has become. ^_^

Man Tecmo really listens to their gamers dont they. Makes you want to stay with them for a long time :). Also makes you feel like what you say is important to what they think and how they make the game. I wish other Game developers would do this too.


By Mister Purple on Sunday, November 16, 2003 - 07:17 pm:

Fenrick, what did you do?

I know Lisa's role, but is your mention for the same thing, or for your tourney's, etc?

I really wish I could help in a meaningful way. All I've done is convince one person to get it.

I just want to take this oppurtunity to say Fenrick has the absolute WEIRDEST collection of DVD's I've ever seen. Oo;


By Mike MacKay on Sunday, November 16, 2003 - 09:45 pm:

I have all the same CDs Fenrick has....


By WHT Junior on Sunday, November 16, 2003 - 11:04 pm:

Oh, his aren't THAT weird. And I haven't even gotten to MY CD's yet. Still some DVDs to add. ^_^

I feel ya, Mike, I have a lot of those, too.


By Mike MacKay on Monday, November 17, 2003 - 09:46 am:

er... Well not all of his CDs, but up to 70% the same. I have other games that he has not used yet though (like 4).

Enternal Ring
Oni
Sukioden III
Sommoner

But the DVDs he has I have alot the same, almost perfectly the same.

i forgot to list my games, I started listing when the Wife helped me shrine, since.. on a 56k Connection it takes as long for her to shrine 1 CD as it takes me to make the entry... so it all works out. :)

A big, "You're Welcome" to WHT and the others! Fen and I both moderate Tecmo's message boards, a fairly time-consuming task. We also gave input on the MR4 game, and were generally around when Tecmo needed small favors.

wow congrads Lisa and Fenrick!


By Nephre-nara on Wednesday, November 19, 2003 - 10:15 am:

speaking of Tecmo listening to their players, is there a place to comment to them on opinions of the game? I was thinking with enough positive feedback they'd make another MR game :P (not that I've finished or am tired of this one!)

one thing I was disappointed with is how creating monsters from your cd collection seems to be not as easy as before. You can't get the Monster Breed Name, Main & Sub species, stats, etc right after you create them, before you accept them to take them home now. (as I am sure you have all noticed). I sort of think this is a setback from the other games.

But I think the adventures in MR4 are better than ever! They definitely made adventuring a lot of fun :)


By Lisa Shock on Wednesday, November 19, 2003 - 12:17 pm:

You can always post in the MR4 forums at Tecmo's Message Boards. They are peeking around looking for reactions to the game, right now....


By Nephre-nara on Wednesday, December 3, 2003 - 04:07 pm:

I did post over there, not sure if anyone saw or if it was even useful.


By Shen the Keeper on Thursday, December 4, 2003 - 07:15 am:

I have no idea. Did the japanese version allow for the main character's name to be changed? I know some weren't sure that'd be the case in the US version. I dunno. I remember talking about that with you there. (I'm kawaiipd there) Maybe next version they'll have a male and female lead. ;) But I definitely think at least putting your opinion there gives them a greater chance to see it.


By Nephre-nara on Thursday, December 4, 2003 - 12:56 pm:

I hope so :)
Lisa said it would.
This is such a great game series.
It's funny, my friends who don't play are like "whatever", but the ones I get addicted are as bad as me!


By Shen the Keeper on Thursday, December 4, 2003 - 01:02 pm:

Spreading the word is good too as Lisa said in another post.
I finally got a friend of mine to buy it after bugging them. Hehe.
And another person I talked to online said they liked the old MRs but hated three, but last I talked to them about MR4 they said they should pick it up. Hehe.


By Endless Vision on Thursday, December 4, 2003 - 03:38 pm:

I had recently brought it over my cousins house and I showed it to them and they completely fell in love with it. So I said that they should get it and my aunt said she would get it for them for Christmas. :P

Um, i was just wondering (and super sorry if it is explained somewhere else here) what exactly did lisa and fenrick do?


By DarkPalidan on Sunday, March 21, 2004 - 04:25 pm:

They help maintain/moderate the Tecmo message boards.


By Infernus on Sunday, March 21, 2004 - 05:38 pm:

As well as run these sites (LC and MRM), and other things that deserve credit.


By Lisa Shock on Sunday, March 21, 2004 - 08:43 pm:

I also helped localize MF4 for the US. I played MF4 and turned in bug reports, and general play info for the US office.
