    As a PC player, I’m glad our hardware cousins get to play 1.6 - it’s a good update and ConcernedApe again going above and beyond. What I’m most excited for though is that this may mean Haunted Chocolatier gets back into development. Fields of Mistria did a good job scratching the itch before I ran out of Early Access content, but I’m really looking forward to seeing what Barrone comes up with in his next game

    I’ve heard the hype but I have never played this game. What am I missing out on?

      It has essentially killed Harvest Moon as the established farm simulator for relaxed gaming.

      If you know someone that loves games, but hates fighting or quick skill-based stuff, they will lose hundreds of hours to this game.

        Yeah well Samsung killed harvest moon so we needed a successor.

        ConcernedApe fucking delivered. Much relax. Very cute. Such plot.

      If you like this genre of games, then this is one of the best, so yes, play it. It’s a great, addictive, one more… kind of game with a ton of stuff to do, lots of goals short and long term.

      I never really care for the dating sim portion of these kinds of games all that much, so I can’t comment on that part much, but the rest is great!

      If you like this genre this game is at the very top. I played Harvest Moon back in the day and this game surpasses it in almost every way. Plus, it’s $20 and goes on sale for less than that very frequently, sometimes as low as $5. It’s not like you’re losing much if you pick it up. It’s one of my top games on my PC with over 700 hours.

      I’d say so, alot of late game content now plus the mod scene is pretty strong if you want to really mix things up.

      Absolutely, there is sooooo much more content now and the balance and QoL is tonnes better too. Still recommend using the wiki late game though.
