      Agreed, stardew valley brought the genre to a much wider audience, and the genre is much more represented as a result with many more titles from other studios, most of which are evolving and polishing their systems much better and faster than both harvest moon and story of seasons titles.
      You have to reach a pretty high bar now.

    Just started playing this and I’m enjoying it. It is by far the best Natsume HM game. I was about to write it off for being on mobile but I’m glad I tried it. I like that it’s a smaller world. While I finished WoA, the world was way bigger than it needed to be and felt empty. I really like the auto walk feature on the map for getting around too.

    I will always hate what Natsume did when they posted a "20th Anniversary" message on their website even if the games that they released is no longer the same "Harvest Moon" game. They really milked the title for what it's worth. This is misleading. Harvest Moon is my childhood. I will never play a "Harvest Moon" game released by Natsume.
    The post in case you are interested and you haven't read the post:
    "It all started 20 years ago when we took a chance to bring an unknown farming simulation game to the US, back when no farming game genre existed. After 20 years, we are very proud that Harvest Moon has grown up to be one of the best known non-violent and family-friendly games in the entire video game universe thanks to the continued support of loyal Harvest Moon fans. We hope you will find your favorite games you used to play among the games listed below.

      I know! 😭 I get why they do it as a business, but I really dislike it. There are still people who don't know, try the games and wonder why they're completely different from older Harvest Moon games. I would feel better about it if they changed the name, but they know that the name sells more than the gameplay.

    I like the concept to try to bring crop rotations into the game something you have to consider in real life too but I think it is very difficult to make right and not be annoying to the player. Rune Factory 4 had something like that too and there I kind of liked it.
    Still I think this harvest moon is again not something for me. Sadly the natsume harvest moon games just don't klick with me.

    Hi Josh 😊 I have been playing this game for a couple of days and I LOVE it! I played Harvest Moon (the very first one) on GameCube back in ..... a long time ago!LOL I think it's very well done for a mobile game and it's fun to have this to play when I'm waiting somewhere and need to pass the time. The animals are super cute and I have enjoy the music and running around foraging. I just bought a fishing rod so I will trying that later. I am an old lady of 60 though so not sure if I have the same needs from a game as all you younger folks. I thought the $24.99 price CAD was very reasonable for this content and no other money sinks involved like some of the other online farming games. Those really make me angry!

    I was playing Home Sweet Home for quite some time and I have to say that it is a game that I like a lot, although it has both things that I like and that I don't
    Personally I like that festivals appear thanks to you, although it is frustrating that in the first year you miss most of them because of it, but unlike most games with the style of "help rebuild the town" in this one I really feel that things are moving forward. For example, at the beginning most of the neighbors' crops were dead, as well as there were just few people in the town, but as you advance the crops are alive again, people leave their homes and tourist come to visit. It really makes me feel like our presence there really helps the village, for the most of other games it was just create or restore something and everything remained the same, I like the progression mode of the village as you progress through the game. Personally, I really like the fishing game, although I understand that it stresses out if you don't realize at first that some fish should only be able to catch later
    Even so, I would appreciate improvements such as being able to ride horses in the village, an improvement in the AI in the animals (many times they bug or go for food that is just occupied by another animal) more customizable things, improved controls, cloud saving, graphics adjustment, that birthdays have more importance (not much, one or two special dialogue is enough, but as far as I saw NPCs only react to your birthday), etc
    It's a game that I think has a lot of future if they update (I doubt they will add content updates, but it's worth dreaming), because it has a lot to give if they know how to take advantage of it. It's not a wonderful and perfect game, but it does feel nice to play (at least for me) even though it doesn't feel like a game mobile game (What I'm grateful for, I'm tired of the Candy Crush variations)
    While one thing I'm sure we can all agree on is that it's WAY too expensive, it would get more attention if it was priced similarly to Stardew Valley

    The game looks nice but not being able to marry until after you've completed the story is one of the issues I have with RF 5. Just knowing marriage is so far out of my reach is annoying. And I'm not going to go through all that effort for bland characters. Sounds like another pass. It does sound like they are making the game better every time but it seems like they just keep recycling the same old characters in every game.

    I can't help but think of Harvest Town which also has a fast travel via map function.(It's even slightly faster than walking)
    Harvest Town is an app farming life sim that was accused of being a copy of Stardew Valley. Admittedly the character sprites(not the portraits) are similar & you have bathhouse that's fixed up area by area thanks to giving bundles(some are kind of hard to get & take a lot.of resources) but it's got a lot different.(I have complains but being a ripoff is the least of my issues) The game starts with you as an elder thinking back on life & wishing you had done things differently as things changed after moving out of your home town. By some miracle you're taken back in time & given a second chance.
    I had to stop playing because I hoarded too much, still a WIP so I finished what the story had so far & I needed to get away from the microtransactions. The game is free but it has season passes for decorations for your farm.(Sometimes interesting stuff like your own island before Ginger island was a thing & an unlimited storage place you can pay a little to add more spots) Not to mention at the start your farm has areas blocked off & you need to either pay money or level your farm up.high enough to unlock more room.

      It really is when the horses are very pretty, and it would allow you to move faster. Maybe if enough people provide feedback, they will do an update in the future.

      I was so mad when I found out the hard way! At first I thought maybe you need to train it or something but what is the point of the horse then! So annoyed. At least I got the horse on the day Philip was doing 30% sale…
