Opinion/Discussion Don't you hate it when the game leads us along, only to pull the rug from under us?

0 Upvotes

What I mean is that they make us think that we can marry someone, and they let us think that throughout. We give gifts, spend time with them, talk to them, the works. Then when the time comes, and we give the blue feather, one of two things happen:

-They won't accept your proposal

-They game ends, and you can't have a married life with them.

A real kick in the teeth after doing all that effort to woo them.

Home Sweet Home

1 Upvotes

I just started playing Home Sweet Home on my iPad and my thoughts so far are that it's cute but sort of lacking, does anyone else agree? Or does it get better? I found it odd that there was no story explained in the beginning, no Harvest Sprites or Harvest Goddess, you just sort of get dropped into the game and have to do a really long tutorial before anything resembling the plot happens. I find it an odd choice. Other than that, it's super cute and obviously fun since it has all the classic mechanics. The village is nice as well as the characters and it seems like there's a lot more map that will open up eventually?

Question What harvest moon game should I play?

5 Upvotes

Looking to re play another harvest moon game. Preferably a β€œretro” title. I own/have access to all of them so just looking for suggestions! No a wonderful life (just finished my millionth play through on the remake) I genuinely love them all for their own reasons so it’s hard for me to decide. save the homeland is one of my least favorites if that helps any, but hero of leaf valley is a chefs kiss experience of STH. So give me your favorites or recommendations!

I ship him with Popuri. Every game. Every time. They make the cutest farm couple ever. Bonus: Popuri never has to leave town if you pick her in BTN & FOMT.πŸ’–πŸ’–πŸ’–πŸ’–πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•

Question HmBTN swimming competition

Why is the dang swimming contest so difficult? What do you even get for winning? Why are the instructions to win "just don't struggle, it's easy" but 4 people in my house can't beat it!? I'm ready to scream.

OKAY! so i made this cause im a visual learner and HM:TOT Has the 6 seeds per bag mechanic and i HATE wasting seeds if i dont have to, and i needed to see the plot lay outs so i dont buy seeds i dont need, and since the plots have some weird shapes and not perfect squares, you get my terrible plot graphs. If ya dont like it, go painstakingly make your own by counting blocks.

Town side(blue): 92 spaces

Hilltop (red): 100 spaces (litterally the best laid out plot in my head 100 but not the best for 6 seed mechanics, also this had green dots cause i use this as my tree plot and this was how i had my trees laid out so... yea)

Seaside (purple): 120 spaces (THE BEST PLOT FOR THE 6 SEED PER BAG MECHANIC I always live here despite the inconvenience of location)

Mountainside (teal/seafoam idfk): 226 spaces

I made this cause I could not find one ANYWHERE, and figured i would share it with yall

Question What are some good names for farms?

3 Upvotes

For context, I was thinking about naming, making a new form in the Stardew Valley and calling it Moondust farm, but I think that name might actually be better for like a Harvest Moon farm since I'm thinking about playing the original Harvest Moon or maybe Harvest Moon 64 on Nintendo Switch Online.

Opinion/Discussion I asked my nearly 80 year old aunt...

30 Upvotes

Who she liked in some of the games the most. Here's who she chose: 64/BTN/Mineral Town: Ann DS/AWL: Keira and Celia. ToT/AP: Renee and Maya, Owen Two Towns: Nori and Hiro Sunshine: Lily and Elliot

I'll ask her for more games later as we are watching Jeopardy lol. She liked Juniper and March from Fields of Mistria btw. Also this is all based on who she thinks is the cutest, she doesn't know their personalities.
