And hopefully this will prompt me to pick up a few of the earlier HM games soon -- like Harvest Moon 64 and Magical Melody :)thegaygamer.comhttp://www.thegaygamer.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-9972900745126836542014-06-22T18:27:05.091-07:002014-06-22T18:27:05.091-07:00Totally - I think it would be really interesting t...Totally - I think it would be really interesting to go into this game as someone who's never played a HM game. I wouldn't consider myself a superfan by any means, but I have dabbled in a couple of them. <br /><br /><br />Can't wait to hear what you think when you eventually get it!apricotsushinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-30023547041589782142014-06-22T00:03:22.913-07:002014-06-22T00:03:22.913-07:00Hey there, Anne!

Also, I think it could be an interesting opportunity for me to play this game and offer an opinion on it as someone who's yet to play a HM game and as such isn't as wrapped up in its charms, history, etc. <br /><br /><br />I'm definitely planning to pick up a copy, by the way, although possibly not at launch. It all depends on when that launch is and how my gaming budget's doing at that point XD Even if I don't get it then, though, I'll likely ask for it for my birthday or Christmas.thegaygamer.comhttp://www.thegaygamer.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-75566423117764445512014-06-21T23:48:56.211-07:002014-06-21T23:48:56.211-07:00Hmmm well it will be very interesting to see how t...Hmmm well it will be very interesting to see how this one stacks up to "real" Harvest Moon games! I'm personally more interested in Story of Seasons, partially because (and this is pretty superficial) I actually like the illustrated character portraits much better than 3D models when you're talking to townspeople and whatnot. I'm not really interested in Minecraft-y style gameplay, either. But I'd love to hear what you think if you pick this one up!apricotsushinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-27609909233990905682014-06-18T22:12:25.637-07:002014-06-18T22:12:25.637-07:00Ah, at least I'm not alone in having not yet p...Ah, at least I'm not alone in having not yet played a HM game, Linnea!

I didn't think it looked like actions took forever during my first two viewings of the trailer, but I wasn't focusing on that aspect of things either. Anyway, I certainly hope that doesn't end up being a pain point for most people (including myself).thegaygamer.comhttp://www.thegaygamer.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-8210250343512870232014-06-18T22:07:47.840-07:002014-06-18T22:07:47.840-07:00Ah, I can understand that.

I have yet to played a Harvest Moon-game myself. Even though I own the PS1 one!

I think it would be fun to jump back into the series, but Story of Seasons is probably the one I'd go with if I did. I'd have to read some reviews.Zaphod65https://twitter.com/terry_estepnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-11773687123571685522014-06-18T08:33:19.482-07:002014-06-18T08:33:19.482-07:00I like the IDEA of customization, but even in this...I like the IDEA of customization, but even in this trailer, the action looked too slow. I have played several other HM games, but the actual ACTIONS in this one look like they take forever. I could see myself getting frustrated with the slow speed.Justin Difazzionoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20740650.post-62720973500521646642014-06-18T07:51:46.127-07:002014-06-18T07:51:46.127-07:00It's hard to say with Harvest Moon.

So I don't know if I'll be purchasing The Lost Valley just yet, but Story of Seasons is most definitely on my radar. =]GameBlogGirlnoreply@blogger.com
