This was the best entry into the Harvest Moon franchise in a long time. To recap, it’s not called Harvest Moon because essentially Natsume wrestled the Western rights to that name from the Harvest Moon dev team, so they had to release the next installment under a new name in English.
I’m as shocked and happy some of you are into this series as you seem to be in the comments that I am, so let us congregate!
Pokemon was the first franchise I followed, but Harvest Moon is a close second. I’ve been with it since before I can remember. It’s a bit of the end of an era for Harvest Moon fans, as games under that name won’t actually be Harvest Moon games anymore, and this first demonstration of that is a complete disaster.
Apologies for the delay on the next Fate post; I had an oddly busy weekend. It’ll be here soon. God help us.
For now, here’s some things I enjoyed recently but don’t have enough time/thoughts to do a full writeup on.
