I'm usually not one to be picky on graphics, but they took a major step back with this one. It looks like a CD game you would get from a cereal box.

I’m still waiting on something to beat Animal Parade for me

0:00 The dismount from the horse!!! 🤣🤣🤣

Thank you all so much for watching! I can't believe how many people have watched this, so thank you! I hope the review helped to inform you whether to get the game or to save your money for something you would enjoy more :)

My biggest problem with it is how the world looks for a game focused on exploration, it just doesn't look satisfying to explore, which is a shame because I like the concept :( Thank you for doing a more in depth and balanced review, I was waiting for someone with more hours in.

I think everyone feels the same thinking what it could have been, with a better engine, better graphics etc.

LOL. That horse hopping animation.

I think the main issue with this game is that we've been spoiled graphically. The game is pretty good but aesthetically it looks unfinished. Honestly, I like the art style of the bachelors Hm than in SoS but the way they look in-game feels kind of off or unfinished for the lack of a better word. If this game came out in the 90s/ early 00s then it would probably be better received.

I'd definitely get this when it's on sale for like 15$

"Reviewed on the Switch" *graphics and animation worse that HM64

All I know is that I like the game and everyone else hates it. I just want to he able to enjoy this game. But it's becoming hard with the fact that it's nothing but "this game is shit" in my recommendations. Though it is a nice change of pace to all of that.

Seeing all the collectibles make me want to get the game. Thanks for pointing things out (like that) that others have not!

maybe i'm a bit spoiled but its still really hard for me to overlook the visuals in this game. Its a lot better- sure. But still not what i like. I can kind of say that for SoS as well- it just feels a bit too simple sometimes but it stands out more here in this studio. Character sprites have never really "moved" much but i miss 2d art since its at least easier to push strong emotions. the 3d stuff can do it okay but it feels flat to me sometimes. But i'm glad they are ironing out other issues like the actual gameplay itself. Not sure i'll get this one BUT i hope they are learning to make better and better games, because i do love me some farming games.

I really appreciate this review. You did an amazing job and didn't just hate on the game because of the devs history. Just what i was looking for.

I was waiting for a review of this game. I was afraid to buy it after the last hm games, but I’m glad to see more and more positive news about the game. Great review! You covered a lot of what I wanted to hear about the game and you have a lovely speaking voice too.

It’s actually not that bad , once you actually start doing progress the addiction sets in and you want to get more shit done . Biggest complaint i got is that there’s empty fields that could have easily some flora on them to look more lively . Other than that not bad at all

One thing I like about One World so far is that it offers a system in which tools do not take up space in the inventory and are automatically used when the player presses a button next to a space. Same goes for seeds, which can be cycled between after pressing the button. This makes farming very simple and fast to accomplish and improves the gameplay flow of farming, mining, and foraging.

Just subscribed. :) The only huge problem I have with OW is not just the absence of same-sex marriage, but the CEO's excuse behind not putting it in ('oh the pandemic happened and we didn't want to just do it just because, we'll do it next time'). But honestly- The bachelors and bachelorettes in OW are much better than Olive Town's love interests. That alone makes me want to give this game at least a little bit of a chance.

My favorite feature is that you can look for specific seeds on the world map while you're traveling. Instead of me wasting my time picking up garbage potato seeds, I can get cabbage seeds that sell for like 900 bucks a pop. But I still haven't bought a horse and it's killing me! lol

It seems to me that the game's proportions are all wrong and that's part of why it looks so bad. Even inside the buildings, there are huge floor areas but teeny tiny furniture items. The colors are also way too bright. This game doesn't seem good to me at all, but they did have some neat ideals I'd love to see SoS use, like the different climates and needing certain recipes to be able to go to like hot or cold areas kind of like LoZ Breath of the Wild. And I love the ideal of planting crops in different places/ways and having different variations pop up. I don't like the pocket farm ideal, I think it would be more fun and realistic to take the approach they had in Harvest Moon Tale of Two towns and let you move from farm to farm in different climates and town locations, upgrading and farming each one as you play. Maybe even having each farm only able to hold certain farm animals, like one farm can hold chickens another cows another bees another sheep, alpacas, ect. Anyway that's just my thoughts.

I usually don’t comment on videos, but thank you for the review! I also just wanna say that, in my opinion, I feel like we need the same type of graphics like we had in HM: A Wonderful Life. Obviously with a better engine but you get my drift. Especially with the camera movement and you’re able to walk around town with hardly any loading screens.

My first farming game was Story of Seasons: Mineral town on switch. I loved it and I've been looking forward to the new game. I heard about marvelous and natsume's history and I started to dislike Natsume's Harvest moon because it doesn't look like Story of Seasons. Watching the trailers I would constantly compare the two but I thought about it and I understand now Natsume's is trying to make their own gaming experience. Sos didn't do a worldwide release (rude asf lol) so I can't get it until the end of the month so I ordered this game because I needed to actually play it for myself before jumping the bandwagon with my pitchfork. I played for hours last night until the sun rose & my husband's alarm went off and I was like where did the time go?! 😱. With no spoilers i will say my opinion on it so far. Natsume made a mistake continuing to carry a name that already had a loyal fans. It was a short play, doomed from the start. They simply weren't at marvelous level yet but that doesn't mean they can't be. They weren't ready to carry on that name. No matter what they do people would harshly criticize them using the standard marvelous set for the series. They were shoes they couldn't fit in yet and no one walks well in oversized shoes. No other farming sim gets the level of hate they do and it would be best to start a new with a fresh name. Your games are deserving of their legacy don't you think? As for the actual game I found it to be quite fun if im being honest. I was surprised. I mindfully stopped comparing it to Sos and judged it as its own experience as I did with stardew. The world needs some more vibrance but I did find myself not wanting to move on to the next town yet because I was just having some much fun farming i didnt feel rushed to move forward. I love the game play mechanics they've used for tools. No longer do I have to worry about trying to milk air and waste my precious stamina (im not dissing Sos im just pointing out an improvement. I love sos). I loved that it automatically uses the tool needed for that task and I don't have to worry about accidentally killing a crop before harvest. I do enjoy the dialog and ive only gotten to the first major town. It is simple in some good ways and doesn't overcomplicate simple tasks. My greatest compliment to marvelous is that I am really excited about the fact that getting someone to fall in love with you isn't as simple as handing them an egg every day. You must complete certain tasks that require some effort. Thats more realistic and also fun to reach the goals. My biggest complaint is that same sex marriage should have been a basic thing in a game that has romance as a big part of it. Im straight and married to my husband who I adore but I was actually very sad that I couldn't romance every character and get to see their dialog (its what I love most) and yes I could replay as a man but heck, I like looking like myself in the game as it makes me more immersed. I can only imagine if I was apart of the LGBT community that I would feel more than disappointed but also forgotten/not important. They said they cut it because of time restraints & covid, etc but I'm letting you know that people would rather wait for a game and have the development team given proper time to create the best experience they can. A rushed game will never be that good but a delayed one may eventually be groundbreaking. Please take your time on your next project. That being said for those of you who don't have to choose between one or the other I would recommend trying it out. I used gamefly and it arrived quickly. I also bought the game on gamestop but their Shipping is slow atm. I'm still looking forward to SoS but I'm allowed to enjoy both games 🎮 💙

I definitely see it as a cash grab when then charge $69.95 AUD. Hard pass.

The more pixellated graphics you mentioned, maybe it's ones from like Light of Hope? When I saw the mines my brain went "Wait that is the other game's one, isn't it?"

I might check it out, seems SOS olive town is a bit lackluster- I think Marvelous has put all their effort into rune factory 5. Thanks for the review. I'm checking the game out now, so far so good, the graphics actually look decent on the switches small screen. I'd also recommend Littlewood, it's kind of part farm Sim, part animal crossing but simplified and it's only 15 bucks.

But the animations are hurting my eyes!!! But then again don't judge the book by its cover

Thank you for your positive, honest, to-the-point, non-biased review. I subscribed because of this video and it seems you have your OWN opinion of the game and not just regurgitating the same complaints that most people/KZfaqrs have just to please subscribers. I was already going to get the game from day 1, regardless of how much people complained about it (to be honest, I don't think SOS PoOT looks all that great and graphically advanced, but I'm still getting that as well), it's still a huge improvement from their last games.

I was also surprised that it wasn't terrible. Enjoyed it more than other games in the franchise.

actually i find the graphic not too bad overall, their 3D models were pretty decent just that wish they could make use of the space more coz it looks quite empty and barrens. If only they could improve on the 3D shaders,the area like the ground and grass too flat though. The game is refreshing remind me of RPG with an open-world but the graphic for the environment not immersive and convincing enough.

Thank you for this balanced review! I feel like it's given me a realistic sense of what to expect. Thats soooo rare in reviews at the moment! You pointed some things out that definately have me interested in this game, just not full retail price. Gonna look out for it on one of the sales. :) Plus subscribing to you!

Thanks for an unbiased opinion about this game. While I do like SOS, I actually like HM; I enjoyed HM's Light of Hope. I was waffling about buying HM, SOS, & Runes or just get SOS & Runes because so many folks were coming down hard on HM. The idea of the side quests & exploring being a big part really makes me want to play this game because that's a part I really enjoy. I guess I'll go for all 3 lol.

Personally I like the game. Thank you for the first real review on this game. That was more than just hate on natsume.

The graphics giving me bare minimum realness.

I like that at least here compare to story of seasons, the characters model shows when you talk to them. In the new story of seasons it seems the camaro just zoom in from what I seen in the videos.

So much better than the IGN review it’s not even close lol.

Awesome video! As a huge farming game fan (particularly Harvest moon derivatives), this warmed my heart. Have you tried "My Time at Portia"? It has the same ugly graphics, but amazing variety, exploration and excellent story and characters. Honestly I feel like it's so underrated!

Thanks for this honest review! I keep seeing so much hate, mainly about the low-grade graphics. I’m not worried about the graphics as much as the actual gameplay and fun. So this is a great explanation! 😊

Nice to see some positivity for a game most people rag on. Well written review.

I think my biggest problem that I keep seeing through reviews is the framerate drops and incredible lack of space to move. Like... for an "Open World" game they laid it out like a Pokemon game from the early 2000's and even those had wider paths. Plus there should never /ever/ be framerate drops like that on a Console. That's the entire point of a gaming system, you buy the thing pre-put-together and it runs, especially on a game that got delayed like this one. Seriously, unless it's on a PC (because everyone's computers are different and you can't really plan for that) or running on Flash we shouldn't be seeing lag spikes or frame drops. The game seems claustrophobic and the lack of named meaningful characters is off-putting... Also seems like the only reliable way to farm is to have animals. The more I look into this the more it seems like an RPG with Farming in it than a Farming Sim with RPG in it... maybe that's why I'm confused. Oh well thank you for the review! I'll probably buy it anyway out of curiosity and sadism because I WANNA KNOOOOW. And the horses look nicer than the last game. :D

Great video, thanks for this, it's the only review I could find

and here i was thinking 'am i the only one that like this game?' Im glad there are other people enjoying it too.

Yeah the beginning I definately was thinking...this is ugly. But now I'm really into it and love all the areas and things to do! But I hate how short the days are! I feel like they're faster than every before in a world that's bigger than ever before. Once you unlocked fast travel areas it's fine, but on the ones you still have to unlock it's so frustrating cause I spend most of my day walking. And there definately are a lot of aspects I wish they explained and others that werent needed. I'm definately addicted though

I think the problem is Natsume tries to hard to copy harvest moon because it was once the biggest farm sim name. But since recent times many farm sim games arise, and stardew took the throne. Even SoS tries to copy it (and sadly failed with POoT). That should be a chance for Natsume to create brand new farm sim game, as right now I don't think anyone is falling for the HM name anymore, but new people came from stardew instead bc they want more farm sims. If Natsume don't step up their game, they will just fall into obscurity as right now many new farm sims are coming, and more promising. Even SoS is currently struggling with their identity, it's actually a great time to get solid stance in the market.

I would like to buy this game (no money yet lol); however, I still think this lacked of development time (you could see some unfinished animations, characters that dissapear and appear, and that horse riding animation? Gosh) I like Harvest Moon, I'm still playing Light of Hope because I liked it. And I'm willing to give One World an opportunity, but I recognize that some stuff should have to be fixed before have launched the game :

I think that by now they should always have an option that let’s you skip the really basic things in games, NOT get rid of it completely since it could lock out the younger generation for which it might be their first, but at least give people the option. Like yes game, I know you walk by tilting the left stick, thanks. But I’ve noticed that a lot of people are clueless about things that you can easily figure out by going trough menus so I’m guessing they never had to do that either. The go in without much of anything at all gaming experience that I grew up with in random games on dad’s computer. We didn’t really get our own games for a very long time so it was a lot of just figure it out, and we’d figure out things that dad missed 😂 but then again, he had work, we just had primary school 🤷‍♀️ Still, most people have more options these days so if they don’t understand how to play a game they’re not going to try to figure it out on their own, while others don’t want to be forced to learn how to walk for the ten thousandth time. Have you played a game before or do you need help? That shouldn’t be the hardest thing in the world to put in since it also makes starting a new save extra painful. Have an in game manual in the options menu that you can check if you DO get stuck on something. It’s not rocket science.

Hmm, ok I think I'll try it out. Although, I've preordered already the new game of Story of Seasons for two weeks ago, I think Harvest Moon deserve a chance again. I'm still very critical, but maybe Natsume have learnt something from their mistakes in the past 🌞🌞

Thank you so much for giving an honest, unbiased review! I wasn't sure if I should buy this game or not, but definitely will now. I love farming games and think there is plenty of room for both harvest moon and story of seasons. I think harvest moon have finally broken away and are making something that can stand out as a bit different. Happy to get both games and enjoy each for what it is 😁

Does the game have skills that can be levelled up? I know some Story of Seasons titles do so I wasn’t sure about this one.

You'd think Natsume would pull out all the stops to make sure their flagship series be the best. They believe that the name alone is worth something so make it worth something!

It's not bad But... $50 for this is too much

The village looks more beautiful than Olive Town tho.

Honestly it is really hard to find a non biased opinion about this game as people see the name Natsume and they automatically assume bad. Though i will also say that people are way too hard on this game about the graphics when this is better than the PS1/PS2/N64 graphics literally if anything it is Wii graphics level or even with the cell shading Wii U era like Wind waker as in Tree of tranquility/animal parade which still looks better than blocky polygons of the graphics of PS1/PS2/N64. Like they have their Nostalgia googles on way to tight if they honestly think these graphics are bad at all or even comparable to the graphics of old systems that was honestly worse. Now i would understand if people would say that they just don't like the cell shading in general thats fine but the fact that they have the balls to say that the graphics are worse than some shitty old console thats not fine. Granted i do know that those consoles were marvels of their own with good games but a lot of those games had bad graphics objectively speaking and if you were to say "That is just because of the hardware limitation of the time" then thats just being blinded by nostalgia as objectively this game has better graphics since the times passed and is on better hardware Sorry for the foul language but just seeing people say that the graphics are bad like that and that the inferior hardware is better just ticks me off as they can just say that the graphics don't do it for them and not just say that it is bad outright or use it as a negative talking point when talking about the game. Like i honestly feel that people are nitpicking just looking for reasons to hate the game and call it a terrible atrocity when in fact it is a perfectly fine game granted when seen as a standalone a perfectly above average one that would be better if they patch all the lag out and fix some other minor issues but it is still a fine game that does not deserve all of the hate it is getting like sure it is a Natsume game but come on the nitpicking and hate is just too much and for a Natsume game you have to admit that it is actually pretty good

Thanks so much for this review! I have seen a very 50/50 opinion on this game and I have been holding off. It's currently 50% on Steam though so have been watching reviews to try and decide. It sounds really good honestly so, am definitely going to nab it!

Just found your channel through this video. I haven’t played harvest moon in a hot minute so maybe I’ll pick this up! You seem like a great reviewer too so imma sub ^^

I'm not sold on either this or SOS Olive Town This game needs a price cut, I'd try it if it was a $25-30usd game An olive town is lacking alot of polish, and lacks any exploration

The characters are actually pretty cute

I have not played a HM game since the snes , Maybe I will try it if they put is on sale for $15 or less

Hi, may I ask if the harvest sprites would help you to do the crops and animals like friends in mineral town does?😊

Thank you for giving One World a chance 💚💚💚 Can't wait to receive my copy in the mail!

Really fair review, thanks! I really like this game, despite its limitations.

Yeah saying it looks like a mobile game is insulting, Genshin Impact is a mobile game...

Came here from Nintendo Life's review of Story of Seasons: Pioneers of Olive Town, and this game looks SO MUCH BETTER. Which is disappointing to me. I loved Story of Seasons and had high hopes for the newest one, but it looks like I'm going to be spending my money on One World. THANK YOU so much for doing this video. The pros seem to outweigh the cons, so I'll give it a shot. It's looking more promising than Pioneers of Olive Town.

thanks for your review, i'm going to plow through because i only got to about 1.5 hours before i stopped and was disappointed. but the mechanics you mentioned sound quite fun so i'll try it for longer!

Very nice review I just beat the plotline for the game and I do think it's a good play-through there are many new things to do and requests make it fun and keeps me coming back to see what I can do each day.

3 hours in and really enjoying it!

Wooo! Im happy to see a decent review. I bought it but wasnt sure if i wanted to return. Now I want to keep it

amazing review, thank you. i did watched many live streams and just like you said.. after the first hour you feel like you dont wanna watch more.. i dont know if they can add more things after the release or at least fix via updates? but that would save them. i think you just saved harvest moon with your video lol i also noticed how you can play one world and pioneer without issues because both focuses on different things, i actually though they were reaching for the same thing. have different towns in one game sounds amazing, reminds me of the 3ds game! i also DID noticed the graphics of certain things, some HD some pixelated which looks weird? and some textures looks like it's from a different game?

Thank you for the video. I knew that I wanted Story of Seasons and not Harvest Moon, and still accidentally purchased it. This review is the only thing that's given me hope that I didn't waste my money... I guess I'll actually start it now. 🤷

Great review! Glad I found your channel, have a sub!

I personally like this game quite a bit. It does have some minor issues but is overall a well made and innovative farming game. This is coming from someone who likes Light of Hope, but still.

There's these 2 questions that keeps bugging me. The first one is, can we have more than three save files on the game? And two, just like Story of Seasons, is it LGBTQ friendly? I'm not gay but it would be nice to say that the game has options for friends of mine that are and want to play the game. I'm already at the end of the land that resembles Germany. And I bought this game a week ago. And I still have to wait for the next update on the game where they upload the Japanese island. I'm not sure if that part is part of the storyline or not. I was hoping you can give me some answers to these questions since the "lovely" internet has not yet provided me with anything. Please respond. I really love this game.

I dont really like it. On my switch there are too many different issues like saving, and having to start from the begining everytime u use it( just a few) does anyone get this problem? Also there is not alot of sound too😥

Do you have to get to a certain point before you can access the DLC for it? When I click on Playstation store on title screen it tells me 'This content cannot be selected at this time'

Thanks for the review. I have been playing it and agree with you. I do appreciate you giving the game a chance. I just subscribed to your channel.

I'm not a fan of farming simulations but this made me have a different thought, can't wait to try it out on Monday

Interesting game... someone wants this game, so Im looking for reviews hahaha.. Thank you for your detailed review...

Gotta be honest, im probably bias because ive been playing harvest moon since it was on gameboy advance but I'm going to enjoy this game regardless

So it's got the same farming concept of Light of Hope (endless hordes of plant varieties) but you get seeds slightly differently. One thing I liked a lot in Light of Hope was that sense of having a purpose, a mission to accomplish, dunno if One World has that tho, but wins in graphics easily thankfully (the bar was set low tho let's be frank). By the way can you move the camera further? Feels too cramped specially for mining on that angle, also the same mine as Light of Hope... Not a bad thing just funny. From what I've read around, no same sex marriage... That's a big party pooper for me that loves just playing with the cute girl character and marry the cute girls - gotta maximize the cuteness on screen, if I'm to stare at it for so long. Long live that option in Pioneers of Olive Town! Tho granted Story of Seasons is always on a different league. I've always felt that this name they cling so much to isn't making them much good, rather just setting the bar too high for themselves.

I personally don’t like the direction SOS is going in, it’s too cutesy chibi for my taste and ive always hated the bubble cows, I think they should have stayed in Magical melody. Not to mention how monotonous day-to-days are in that game. Just a personal preference! This game however I’m really enjoying, and like you said it’s refreshing. It’s not for everyone, and maybe those people should stay with other farming simulators, but this game really won me over.

if this game was alot cheaper..i might consider buying but it really needs to be on sale for at least 80% or something..because this is not 60 dollars type of fun more like 20 dollars or less type of fun....

This game is a lot better than what people are saying. I think they just put a bad trailer. Not many saw how good the character interactions are

Gonna have to wait for it to go on sale or just until I have more cash most likely because I already preordered olive town but this actually convinced me to give the Natsume games another chance after writing them off ages ago. I’d seen a few short written reviews that were fair and positive but they didn’t really do the game justice. They made the graphics sound worse than they are and didn’t go into those interesting features like you did! Thanks for this.

Thanks for the review

The main issues I have are the crashes and glitches. Like I played FF7 and 8 and left it on for almost a FULL whole day on the PS1 but I can't play Harvest moon One world for too long or it will crash/kill the game on a modern console? Because it's lacking memory? And the random glitches with the people disappearing and never coming back, etc. annoying. But despite that, I'm still playing it.

I've been so skeptical about buying this series because I'm afraid and most of review don't really love this game. If what you saying about the first 60 min is true(the game gets better through time), I will try this game. You seems to be honest about review and I like it. I will solely buy this game just for this review. Definitely subscribe to you.

this game does look promising but unfortunately since its releasing so close to SOS olive town, me and im sure alot of other ppl are gonna end up waiting a few more weeks for that one to come out. story of seasons has proved itself to be as good as the old harvest moons, so i can trust that game to be good, while the new "harvest moon" needs a bit more to win my trust back. maybe if this game goes on sale ill give it a go but as of now idk

I'm planning on getting it because honestly I could careless about graphics as long as it's playable

Questions how did you unlock the traveling cart?

I can't believe that I'm saying this, but One World does actually not look and sound as terrible as I anticipated after seeing the very first trailer/footage last year. To be honest, I didn't have very high hopes for the game and I will still not buy it for the full price. For that, it is not graphically appealing enough to me. However, I will seriously think about buying the game when it is on sale. If Natsume puts some serious effort into upgrading their overworld graphics, they might have a real chance of getting a good reputation in the farming sim fandom. Hopefully, they will take the feedback they will receive for One World and improve even more in the future. I'm honestly looking forward to that.

I thought this would basically be Light of Hope 2.... and yes, it seems to basically be Light of Hope 2. And while I like Light of Hope, it's far from the best HM ever and it's inferior to say Stardew Valley. The whole "Push A to do everything", while certainly a convenient streamlining, is not a terribly fun one and I'd say it's a negative point rather than a positive one. I see the terrible "shoebox" mines are back too. That said, I agree that One World doesn't seem to be bad. And yeah, the first half hour of the game doesn't sell it (just saw another 36 minute gameplay video here), so this review certainly puts the game in a lot better light. Only picking up one farming game this month, and it's still Olive Town, but One World is definitely still on the list and this review bumped up its priority.

Ended up getting 2 copies due to gamestops crappy shipment and losing it in mail i got it late but I can say the game is not too bad I am enjoying it myself have killed some hrs on it so i guess to each there own. Wasn't a waste for me I enjoy it + got a perfect sealed copy just sitting aha

Can we take a moment to appreciate how blessed we are to have this, story of seasons, stardew valley, AND rune factory 5? Sure they all have their faults (the main one being im mostly uninterested in marriage candidate art/designs in ALL of them...), but if you'd have told me we would have this many farming sims back when I played hm: another wonderful life - I would have never believed you. This is pretty great. Sort of glad they branched off.

I wanna buy this because I wanna support this path for them but I'm so afraid they'll turn around again and give us that mobile business they tried to push

Nice channel Sir. Amazing video!

And it Still looks better than olive Town

I was waiting for this advanced version of harvest moon but this one looks a little bit off to me. The graphic color is kinda bright. But still there are lots of new things to explore which is good

They have it for switch for $ 49.99. Recognize some things in One world that are in some of their other games like the animals, how they move and how the character has to clean up their waste in Skytree Village and the characters themselves seem to run like the characters in HM ANB. Really like HM ANB a lot, and Skytree Village is pretty decent too so might look into this one. Setting up a farm on a beach, and being able to go everywhere sounds like heaven to me. Going to keep an eye out for reviews. www.nintendo.com/games/detail/harvest-moon-one-world-switch/ Skytree Village has crop mutations and after you unlock it you can change the terrain, you have to to get to the underground lord who is in the mine and its blocked by a huge rock, but you can create new water ways kind of like acnh. I don't like that fishing. Fishing in their other games is a whole lot better. Even HM TOTT fishing is better than that. What about cooking ? Is there cooking in this game ? They have cooking in their other games.

you said you dont get framerate drops but this video?? looks like its stuttering all the time! whats up with that

Can i make my animal house bigger? I cant finish the Story.. i Need the other sheep and i have 3 animals. I cant have More animals.. :(

The animations look stiff, NPCS are still boring because they dont really interact with one another or their environments in an immersive way, there are hoards of nameless NPCS, the towns are boring because they all serve a similar purpose but with a change in biome, finding seeds is tedious despite it being a core mechanic, the load times is DISGUSTING for how modern this game is supposed to be (on switch at least), the world might be a large open world, but its mostly empty space with sprites scattered throughout it. The game isn't Light of Hope levels of bad, only mediocre in comparison to other farming sim games and I don't think you should be praising Natsume for mediocrity.
