[quote name='Vap']So I haven't played a Harvest Moon since GameCube. I didn't like it a whole lot but I didn't exactly hate it either. It just felt like it was missing something. I was wondering if the franchise has changed much since last gen, because from what I've seen, it looks like pretty much the same.[/QUOTE]
This ones better than the GC HM. I played that one for a little while but never completed it.. I haven't completed this one either, but it just keeps getting better and better. I'm coming into the first winter right now. They've added a ton of features and there is a constant feel of progression from what I've got from it so far. That's how a Harvest Moon game should feel.
[quote name='brewin']Hmmm... My daughter loves these games, but she wasnt too keen on the tale of 2 towns 3DS version. She said the graphics were just like the DS one. How is this one compared to the 1st 3DS outing? This would be a good easter gift.[/QUOTE]
This one is better than ToTT. I played that one up to the first fall and it just started to feel like work, it wasn't at all relaxing/laid back as HM normally feels. I really wanted to like ToTT too becaue I thought the graphics/art was really nice. It just got way to repetitive way to quick and unlocking new things just takes a ridiculous amount of time. In HM: ANB it feels like you're unlocking something new quite often and you actually feel like you're accomplishing something.
