History YMMV / RuneFactoryOceans

* AngstWhatAngst: The fact that Aden and Sonja [[spoiler:have been sent 200 years into their future]] doesn't seem to bother them much. They are shocked at the news, but it doesn't play a factor for them later on. And they have no hesitation to decide to [[spoiler:stay in this time, rather than their own]].
* CaptainObviousReveal: [[spoiler:Aden and Sonja are still on their home island, but it's 200 years into their future.]] The dialogue Aden and Odette have in the beginning already makes a heavy implication of this. Specifically, Aden says that Fenith Island is where they come from, but it looks vastly different and [[spoiler:Odette admitting that there used to be a lot more dragons flying around, but that they died out over the past few centuries]]. This makes the eventual late-game revelation [[spoiler:of Sonja being a descendant of the Wind Dragon Priestess line]] another blatant example in itself. Once again, the game makes heavy-handed comments about [[spoiler:the Wind Dragon Priestess line having 'died out' about 200 years ago]].

* OlderThanTheyThink: This was not the first ''Rune Factory'' game where the player could have a female protagonist. That was courtesy of ''Rune Factory 2'', where the protagonist's child could be a girl and controlled during the second portion of the game.

* SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments:
** Quinn's level 4 friendship event where she goes a bit too far with a prank and Aden hugs her as she cries out of guilt.

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: Despite being the BigBad and having a good amount of screentime, the Masked Man's true identity, origins, and motives remain a mystery and are never elaborated on. [[spoiler:We know he stole Sonja's body to make use of the Spirit Song, and sought to awaken the Legendary Golem so he can fight the Elder Dragons and become a god, but that's all we get. We never find out his name[[note]]He's only called the Masked Man even after the mask comes off[[/note]], what he actually looks like[[note]]He was using Sonja's body throughout the entire game, and his true appearance is never shown even when he leaves the body[[/note]], or why he wants to become a god. Even his final words to Aden and Sonja about how they're being used as pawns and their victory was not theirs is also LeftHanging.]]

* GameFavoredGender: Despite being the first Rune Factory game to feature the option to date men, female gamers are quite embittered that their number of choices is far less than the choices for male gamers. Though this is explained by the fact that the option of being able to choose to play as Sonja came incredibly late in production.

* GoddamnedBats: If you've been keeping up with accessory crafting, [[UndergroundMonkey whatever type of trolls are around]] can become these. Their attacks may not do much damage, but they usually knock the player back or on the ground; the split seconds of recovery time is just long enough for them to get another punch in. Two of them in a room at the same time can pretty much just do it back and forth, and even if they're only doing ScratchDamage it's a pain to get an attack in edgewise. If you haven't been keeping up with accessory crafting, they can veer straight into DemonicSpider territory.

* UnfortunateImplications: Not even taking the uneven bachelor to bachelorette ratio into account, if you get married as Aden, your wife will make you lunch everyday. If you get married as Sonja, your husband ''won't'' make you lunch, and will in fact tell them to [[StayInTheKitchen make ''them'' lunch.]]
