I've come to a very big conclusion that Story of Seasons has set a bar for farming simulation games and if Natsume really wants Harvest Moon to continue on their gonna need to step up the game. For those who don't know, Marvelous acquired the Bokuj? Monogatari series in 2003 which for a long time was being published here in North America as Harvest Moon under Natsume. Well within the last year they decided to not use Natsume and instead gave it to Xseed which is company under them. However with that choice came a price, they could not use the name Harvest Moon for the title. Not only that Natsume has decided to carry on Harvest Moon now has its on IP. Natsume released their very first Harvest Moon title last year and it kind of gave alot of people a bad taste in their mouth. The game was really a cut down verison of what it use to be. I can say for myself that while I liked a few things about the title, I traded it in not long after purchase. The things I did like we're the minecraft style create your own huge farm and stamina seemed to last a long time. Things I didn't like? There was no town, no tool upgrades, and for some odd reason they thought having 3 bachelor's and bachelorette's per gender was a good idea. Now I know the last reason sounds silly has hell but bear with me.
