I unfortunately do not trust Marvelous with SoS anymore. The original Grand Bazaar was kind of shitty so this remake is probably better, but I still expect an overall mediocre product with a terrible localization.

>>
Enjoying my time with it, but looking at the full scope of the comfy farming genre even offshoot porn games like Cloud Meadow have greater depth to the farming/husbandry, nicer animations, better art, etc. It plays and looks like a cheap mobile game, I might just drop it early because it's intended for women and gay guys to enjoy. They can look past these flaws while I can play factorio or a million other factory games to scratch the same farming itch.

While this is SoS and not HM (in a way), thinking about the much older games in the past I've played before, I just realised - when was the last time a SoS/HM game had the mechanic where you had to fence your crops and animals? I vaguely remember up to Gameboy versions of the game that might've had it, where you had to cut wood and put up fences around your crops and animals or else wild animals could come in and damage and either injure or even eventually kill your animals out in the field. The fences would get damaged over time from incursions and you had to 'repair' them by smashing them with a hammer and setting up a new fence, and your dog pet at high love could scare wild animals away at night as well.

This thought kind of came to me while I was wondering when was the last time another mechanic that no longer exists in the modern games last appeared as well, NTR Rival Marriages
>>
>>719433338
>when was the last time a SoS/HM game had the mechanic where you had to fence your crops and animals?

Crops never afaik. Animals, BTN. STH was the first one where they just let you use a button to let animals go to pasture. Since FoMT is a clone of BTN there as well. Rival Marriages, I think Animal Parade was the last one.
>>
>>719433338
Harvest Moon DS was the last game I remember having that mechanic, since it was basically HM FoMT 2 in terms of gameplay
>>
>>719433338
God, your post hit me right in the nostalgia. I vividly remember being paranoid about fencing my animals in Back to Nature like it was some kind of tower defense minigame. You'd wake up to find a chicken KO’d from a wild dog and it'd ruin your whole in-game week. The fences deteriorating added this lowkey survival vibe the newer SoS games totally dropped. Now it's all free-roaming alpacas and emotional support cows.

And yeah, Rival Marriages were peak soul. Watching your waifu marry some annoying NPC cause you took too long hit different. It actually gave a sense of urgency and grounded the world. Ever since they axed those, the townsfolk barely feel like they have lives outside of orbiting your player character. Modern entries are comfy, but they lost a lot of that little world sim charm.
>>
>you can actually have facial hair now
oh snap
>>
>>719433815
>And yeah, Rival Marriages were peak soul. Watching your waifu marry some annoying NPC cause you took too long hit different.

This literally never happened. Since HM64 (which is the first game with rival marriages) girls get locked out of marrying rivals after reaching green or yellow heart. You literally had to go out of your way and ignore the girl you wanted to marry and raise the rival friendship in order for that to happen. You cucks just made that up.
>>
>>719434013
Hell in Animal Parade you had to befriend the dudes to get them to go after their respective waifu and even then you could cockblock them by stating you were after the same girl
>>
>>719434214
I hate the rumors because rival marriage made the game much more kino. Help keep the town feel alive. Girls you didn't care about married other dudes, they had kids and your kids interacted with their kids. Its the whole reason why Animal Parade was perfect. Gave you a reason to keep playing post marriage.
>>
>>719434382
to haremtards girls they don't want to marry marrying other people is cuckoldry. Purityfags want these games to be like moe visual novels where the heroines you don't pick vanish into the ether and cease to exist
>>
>>719434013
>HM64 (which is the first game with rival marriages)
The very first Harvest Moon game on the SNES had Rival Marriages. Though for that one, it's not like the 'play forever' thing that modern SoS/HM games have these days - back then it was more of you ran the farm for 3-5 years depending on the game (I think the first one was 3 years?), with the Rival Marriages all pretty much happening by the end of Year 2 or Year 3. There were multiple endings for the game, depending on whether you managed to amass over 1 million, had a wife (you could only play as male in those days), and a few other factors as well I think.

Speaking of which, the first HM game you could play as a girl instead was Harvest Moon For Girls or something like that on the Gameboy, where both the male and female MCs lived on the same farm and I think the only love interest was each other. The male MC was more focused on the crops side of the farm while the female MC was on the animals. I remember specifically that in that HM game, if you were playing as the female MC and married the male MC, eventually you would get pregnant and while pregnant the stamina usage increased drastically. But once you gave birth though the game ended, probably because too busy being a housewife looking after babby to continue and it was GB limitations, maybe. I think the male MC could continue a fair bit after making babby with female MC.

It actually ends as soon as you marry when playing as the girl, which was a real fuck you when the boy could not only get married but you could even have up to 2 kids before the obligatory game ending deadline came
HM3 was still an incredibly soulful game though despite its faults
The fact that there's a whole separate city area you could visit and shop in was extremely unique compared to the games that came after it
>>
>>719434560
I think another aspect of it was that even though they usually happened after a few in-game years and you could literally hit romance status with the love interests by simply talking to them every day by the end of the first year (the earlier HMs had a lot of nothing to do during Winter because no 'Winter Crops'; all you had was mining, caring for animals or hanging around town), the fact that there was a 'time limit' before their potential waifu got snatched away (with plenty of warning beforehand) stressed those people out.

Also it saves Natsume/Marvelous a lot of time if they don't have to write up Rival Marriage dialogue and events for the games at all. I wouldn't be surprised if they had done a poll on the the topic of Rival Marriages and the result was that 'it was a waste of time' and thus they stopped making them.

There was no rival marriage in HM Snes. Don't know what you're talking about. There wasn't much of a frienship system with NPC other than with the girls as far as I remember. None of the multiple endings had girls marrying other dudes.

Also the first game you could play as a girl was HM GBC 2. You couldn't get married.

Fantasy Life isn't even the same type of game and rf5 came out 4 years ago. Azuma isn't a true farming game either since it is streamlined because it's a spinoff.

The last game was the Wonderful Life remake but that was a remake of a bad game that also had minimal changes so it was still bad and needed the treatment they gave Grand Bazaar.
