Rune Factory commands you to use the ring

Rune Factory Frontier is looking too hot for its own good, as evidenced by these newest screens. We gobble up every piece of Frontier media with such frenzy, it's as if we grew them ourselves! Get it? Growing, eating, the whole Harvest Moon thing? Funny? No?

These images need a wee bit of explanation. The above menu represents the new ring command system, allowing for maximum efficiency while harvesting those sweet, sweet runes. Different items can be assigned to each slot in the item ring, so you can grab anything you need on the fly. It's not the most mind-blowingly original feature (any attacking runes for massive damage?), but rather more evidence that Rune Factory Frontier won't disappoint. More screens after the break!

Hahaha, this is great. It just keeps getting more and more interesting. I've also noticed they increased the amount of a particular item you can hold from 9 to 99 (which is endlessly helpful, man).

The tool ring reminds me of the exceptional instrument selection in the Trauma Center games.
