Story of Seasons! <3

[Missymay2014]

damnit i wish there were more infos about other villagers and their likes as well, i had to milk the internet for like an hour to figure out what to give eda /: im still confused about the whole rival thing but i need to unlock eda events asap...

and oh my god iron is so impossible to get for me >:[ i need two more for pitchfork bc my cow is literally living on its own sht.. i guess ill have to reset for diving

Ehhh I wouldn't waste your time on Eda.

There are rival events in this game? That makes me so happy! I've gotten really tired of basically having a harem in the newer games lol.

There are not Rival events. ;^;

There are not Rival events. ;^;

This is why I've been avoiding the newer Harvest Moon games. They cut out old features that work in the game for new stuff :/

 

[DarkDesertFox]

How fast do you guys fast forward to the next day? I feel like I'm going by each day too slow. I'll collect a ton of bugs, dive in the water 6 times, water/pick my crops, then sleep.

Oh, that's kind of disappointing. :/ Not terribly surprising though since it hasn't been there for awhile.

Yeah, I agree. I really like the idea of going steady with your love interest and the dates and all that, but I hate that they took out rival events. That always made the older games feel more real.

ah not like bachelor/ette/s rivalry if that's what you're thinking, it's more about farm rivalry. tbh im enjoying it O: im usually just working on wooing whoever i like but this time im actually playing the game for its purpose lol

Ehhh I wouldn't waste your time on Eda.

oh no O: i have to, this lady is amazing! also.. i got info/spoiled about her so i have to unlock her events asap..... not sure if it affects the story/farm itself or just for event satisfaction but yeah ^^

Spoiler: extreme spoiler on eda about fall and later, don't read if you're not here yet please!!

apparently you can get her farm later on in the game but im not sure if you have to actually befriend and rival her before fall or you can just auto get it but im not risking anything so... idk D:

if someone could clear this out please???

uhh tbh there's nothing much for me to do so i sleep like by 6-7 pm lmao i just talk to villagers, catch butterflies for gifts, take care of farm and im basically done for the day. the time is kinda easier here but maybe bc i only have like one cow atm and my farm is small as hell -_-

I like the customisation. The collect-a-thon ANB provides is at least feasible, whereas other collection-oriented games (Pokemon) make it nigh impossible to complete your collection without cheating. I don't mind not having rivals, though I remember shipping certain characters hardcore in the old games because of their heart events.
(being jealous of your rival sucks tho)
((i do like how your spouse seems to be so much happier with you than with her tho... >v>))

 

[tokkio]

can you guys make a review of the game? like, what are the pros and cons of it and all that? because I can only rarely buy games, so I need some feedback of it before I buy it huhu

 

[Eldin]

I asked myself that every day that I played A New Beginning. But yet I kept playing for a couple of months. XD It's weird, and addicting and fun. I can't explain why it's fun though. I think you either like it or you don't. It's not explainable.

I'm sure SOS is the same.

I also just remembered seeing that you can swim in SOS. That wasn't an option in ANB...so I'm kind of excited to find out about what that's about. Can you still fish with a rod too, or is it just a swim for items situation?

Very much the same. There are a lot of little things that annoy me about the game (seed maker shed WHY the changes hngh), yet I'm still addicted to it and very much enjoy it. So I guess I am correct in the assumption that pretty much nothing can turn me off of an HM game. ;-;

And you can still fish with a rod. c: You don't get it until the end of Spring, but you can dive right from the start.

Also, @Cou;

Spoiler

I haven't heard anything about them being requirements, I'm almost certain you get Eda's farm automatically. I believe the events are just for the satisfaction of getting them all. I'm trying to get them all as well because she's so adorable. c:

 

[EndlessElements]

should i get this or Fantasy Life? i'm pretty conflicted

thank you!! it's because everyone i see talking about it are all like worried "it's too late"

Spoiler

i love her and ill cry so much when winter 1 comes... this is probably the first time im more interested in a villager than bachelor/ette tbhhh and i got this game for the amazing bachelor/ettes but wow eda is too precious for the world oh my god. butterflies work for her right?? i wanna unlock her events ahhh

@endlesselements ooh tough choice but honestly id go with fantasy life first if youre not too tempted with marriage in story of seasons ^^

 

[modomo]

Harvest Moon games are always really fun! But the DS ones have been kind of disappointing post tale of two towns ;n;

 

[Cou]

also i suck at feedbacks but story of seasons is actually pretty good so far, easier with farming compare to other games and the 3x3 crop soil is amazing bc you can just water in one go and fertilize all in one ^^ the fertilizer here is also really cheap... And you can make them yourself later on. there's also full customization from the beginning // pretty early in the game! the only thing is that you have to go through the mountain before you can go to the town but i guess that's also good so you can hoard on your way to town :') you can also dive for extra items. the suck thing is there's no shipping bin but there is the trading depot which only comes like 2-3 days a week(?) (unless you unlock the other vendors later in the game) so you can't ship at any time and there's not much info about other villagers online so you kind of have to guess what each of them likes and what not. it's pretty neat though, the rivalry between farmers keeps it interesting

it doesn't bother me either way, but thanks! plus Fantasy Life has multiplayer, correct? so my friend and i could play it together.

yup! though fantasy life is like a long time game so you might not be able to play sos for a while if you really get into it haha, but i can't say sos isn't the same. you can play multiplayer but both of you have to either have the dlc or no dlc together ^^

have fun and if you get dlc maybe we can play sometime!!

oh that's really good; i don't have a lot of money atm so if i got it at least i'd be able to keep busy with it. ohh good to know, thanks for that info!

sure, that'd be great. :3

O: i actually enjoyed tott and anb apart from the everyday and long ass cutscenes from anb esp the unnecessary herding scene but it was enjoyable building the town and such and reconnecting the two towns. idk about lost valley tho, but yeah i still have a wonderful life as a number one ^^ still too soon to say anything about sos but..... i feel like this one will really hit me

oh that's really good; i don't have a lot of money atm so if i got it at least i'd be able to keep busy with it. ohh good to know, thanks for that info!

np! yeah fl is worth it and will help you take your mind off other games while you play and save up :")

Yes, I wish they'd ask fans for opinions when designing games. I mean I'm sure they do, but still...even with ACNL, we all have so many opinions about what we like and don't like. I always hear people saying, "I wish they'd kept such and such from WW" etc. Change the bad, keep the good. It's not that hard, Nintendo! (Or whoever the company is that makes the game XD )

Anyway, I'm starting to realize from these comments, and if I'm honest with myself, that the best thing about HM games is the marriage part. lol, let's all admit it. I mean I played ANB all the way until I was good and married to the boy I loved. And if FL hadn't come along I would have had his baby too...then done. lol

BTW, I think I might flirt with them all to see a few events, but in the end it's between Klaus and Raeger.

Hehe, first I have to get the game though. XD

 

[Beardo]

I just got home, so I'll be starting the game in a few minutes! So excited

 

[Lock]

@Kairi: I'm so glad I asked when I did cause a day or two after (in game) Raeger had his white flower event. And if you didn't send me that link I would've picked the wrong one lolz! Yer a lifesaver. That site is so helpful in everything else too.

I feel like after I marry Raeger that I might start up another save file and try for Fritz. I haven't had much of a chance to play SoS so I'm just now at Summer lolz I'm starting up with my kitchen project soon so I'm excited.

There's so much to do XD
