I bought this game right when it released on Switch and I haven't touched it since as the 1 item max was probably the worst mechanic I've ever seen.
RUNE FACTORY 2 MAPS SERIES
Also ik makers have been in the series I just meant crafting ones) and it's not great.Ĭrafting isn't the bad part it's how tedious and annoying makers are. This game seems to be very inspired by Stardews success as makers have never been in the series (New Beginning had crafting as well but it wasn't to this degree. The townsfolk feel for the most part fine and I love the wide range of races as well as the fact you can marry whoever but great strides like this need to also be implemented with good character writing. (There is an option to have the camera move into the characters to see their faces and it does help but still, just doesn't hit it for me) It could very well be the boring 1-dimensional characters or just missing the nice drawn art to accompany the model. I honestly never noticed Animal Parade’s lack of sprites but when I play PoOT it just feels like something is missing. I am personally on the side of portraits when you speak to a character and removing it just feels so strange. I used to almost exclusively play the games for the bachelors/bachelorettes and I loved interacting with them and giving them gifts to eventually give them a blue feather and I have to say this has got to be the worst game for bachelors/bachelorettes. Still, the faces look fine and the game doesn't look ugly and the lighting is nice I just expect a little more out of Story of Seasons when the 3DS town in Trio of Towns and SoS looks so nice and it was on such an inferior machine. One hair just looks as if they stretched out a single shape and slapped a crappy hair texture on. The game looks alright, I will say I do enjoy the clean look of buildings now as opposed to seeing them on the 3DS but honestly, I don't even think Tree of Tranquillity or Animal Parade looks bad. I only made this because I have a lot of opinions on this game and no one to vent it to so enjoy :)
I'm going to break it down into categories.
I'm a huge HM/SoS fan so I was really excited for a Switch/PC release of the newest SoS game.
