Picked this game up since I'm a huge Harvest Moon fan, and I enjoyed Stardew Valley decently, this game is much more focused on crafting than anything else, which is fine, but not really what I wanted, and about 6 hours in I'm personally very bored. The voice acting ranges from okay to terrible, voice actors sound like they didn't even record their lines in the same environment and audio quality is very noticable between each of them. Thankfully, you can mute voices. The music, so far, is very generic and I've heard about 3 tracks in 6 hours, I've muted it and will unmute if I make it to further seasons and whatnot, but so far, compared to HM or SV, yikes. The villagers have been underwhelming to me so far, but it could be they just need some time to develop. There is no consequences for anything, dying has no consequence, staying up till 3 am has no consequence, and whilst that may appear to some, I don't really like it. The crafting has some things I don't like, and some I like. When using your crafting stations (which there are tons of) items are automatically picked from your chests. Nice! However, when you build a new crafting station, the game requires you to have every item on your quickbar, and manually place them on a ghostly display of the crafting station. Just why? You make half the crafting decently convenient and the other half pointlessly time consuming. The game also feels like it lacks polish, everything feels floating, there's barely any ambient noises, the mining (and you'll mine a lot) feels jank, the combat is not too satisfying as all weapons feel the same and have no real impact, speaking of the fighting, everything so far has been laughably easy, mayhaps it will change later on. I'm aware these kind of games can be slow to pick up, but so far, I'm not having fun, so if you like the more farming aspect of HM or SoS or SV, I'd skip this one. P.S. This is all opinion based and is by no mean an attack to the people who enjoy this game.
