Story of Seasons (EU players)

[MayorBlueRose]

I just got this game today!
Had to order it from amazon as every shop i wasnt to after it was released didnt have it!
it didnt help that the 3ds section is always super tiny.
But once ive done all my animal crossing bits done im going to make a start in playing the game.

Does anyone know what kind of Wi-Fi this game uses? I mean as in whether it is limited to 3DS to 3DS in the same room or whether I could connect to friends across the UK?

I've been thinking about picking this up, a friend told me they enjoyed it and I've been reading things like this http://fogu.com/sos1/. I think i might grab a copy in my next Amazon shop :3.

Make your next Amazon shop ASAP.... This game looks FANTASTIC!

I have ALWAYS wanted a game similar to Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town. My all-time favourite HM game.

I'm still considering whether or not to buy this game =/

I bought it and played it on a US region 3ds but I got bored of it pretty quickly since I was always doing the same exact thing over and over again

Haha yes I think I will Monday .

I've always enjoyed Harvest Moon games and I'm sure I'll enjoy this ^^.

The hardest thing for any of my friends to do is try and convince me to remove the cellophane packaging from a game box due to me being a collector, but THIS game...

The cellophane is coming STRAIGHT OFF! No convincing needed.
I really like this game because it is basically like a more modern version of this...

From what I remember reading somewhere, you can connect with friends across the UK. But I think I also read somewhere that a USA version can't connect with an European one. Not entirely sure if that is indeed correct; I can't find the link where I saw this.

Omg! Most perfect game ever!!!!

I have NOT seen a single negative thing about Story of Seasons apart from a few framerate issues, but that should hopefully be a non issue with my New Nintendo 3DS XL.

i hear there are difficulty settings in this game

is there an actual hardmore, or is it just the normal mode, with the option of playing the easy 'seedling' mode?

yeah i'd say it was just a normal or easy mode. there's not really much of a huge difference apart from prices of things and requirements to unlock certain things.

since u presumably have the eu version of the game, wats ur opinion on any framerate issues in the game

i personally notice it a little bit but it's not an issue at all for me, i forget about it after a minute (although it does seem a few people online find it annoying). the only thing that slightly bothered me was once there was a lot of build up on screen (characters + items) and the game lagged and then crashed. it really could have been my 3ds though it's pretty old

((if i'm being honest i only noticed it when someone else pointed it out, if not i'd probably still not see it haha))

ok thx. between framerate issues and the crashes ur talking about i think im gonna give it a miss. shame, it was gonna be my return to console gaming, but i guess i'll stick to waiting for stardew valley (a pc game based on harvest moon) to come out.

aw i feel bad now! you could try looking it up on youtube to see if you'd find it unplayable, it is a really good game! i guess you could always pick it up secondhand if you change your mind in the future. i'm off to research that now!! i've always thought harvest moon on the pc would be good (i know there was some kind of japanese version but idk)

nah cuz framerate issues rly put me off since im the kind of person who turns down graphics settings in pc games in order to get more framerate, so u essentially saved me from a mistake. stardew is good, back to the old snes/gameboy pixel art style. altho the website seems to be down...good stuff

there is an official harvest moon coming out for pc, but it looks **** cuz its coming out on android first, so its basically gonna be a crappy mobile game that gets ported to pc smh

I'm loving this game, you can have a friend over and you have to exchange a gift which is great if you need an item, you can't seem to leave your farm though. I take so long each day collecting eggs, milking cows, feeding my livestock, sheering the sheep, alpacas and watering my plants. Great when you get the Safari as you can 'mine' for rare gems.

That sounds cool , we'll have to try that exchange sometime ^^.

I look forward to getting my own farm (still in the intro bit). Having alpacas as an option is awesome.
