The lack of decent dialogue - especially in Story of Seasons - is almost unforgivable. I've always been into Rune Factory and - excepting the first gamec - I have played through them all, whereas I could never get into any of the HM games - even the ones that seem like they're critical darlings (like "It's a Wonderful Life").īoth games have some of the most unispired, lazy graphics I've seen from major titles on Switch - ranging from mobile quality at best to borderline N64 at worst. All of these outfits cost £1.79 each.īoth of these games look like they're horrible and a slap in the face to any long time fans of either series. There are also a few extras that don't come in the bundle: the Fox Costume and Buffalo Costumes, which were available as a pre-order bonus, but can be bought separately, and "Neil's Jacket", referencing grumpy boy Neil from Harvest Moon 3D: A New Beginning, which has to be bought separately. The DLC will release much slower than the Harvest Moon: One World timeline, with one "Part" per month all the way from April to August. However, it includes a little more than the Harvest Moon Season Pass, with three outfit sets available on launch, two new "sub-scenarios", three outfit sets for both your character and their marriage candidate, and a pretty beefy selection of three story expansion packs, all of which add a new area, and two new marriage candidates each.
There was a 10% discount on the bundle, but that was for pre-orders only the standalone Expansion Pass will have a 15% early bird discount until the 12th April.
Story of Seasons' DLC is a bit pricier, for £17.99/$19.99, although you can also buy the bundle for £62.99/$69.99 total. Story of Seasons has its limits - especially when it comes to house decoration - but it's miles better than the paltry offerings of HM:OW. The fact that the six available hair colours are brown, brown, black, yellow, lavender, and green should alert you to the fact that Natsume has no idea how to make a compelling character creator. It's not even a contest - Harvest Moon: One World's customisation sucks. WINNER: Story of Seasons: Pioneers of Olive Town! The range of furniture, decor, and lighting is varied, but we haven't seen any options for changing wallpaper or flooring, sadly, and you can't move the furniture that's already there.
The house that you get has a designated, limited area for placing furniture, which increases as you upgrade the house, but never seems to include the entire house, which is odd.
Characters can also wear glasses and hats, but be warned that the hats are, for whatever reason, really big and a bit ugly. There are quite a few outfits on offer, which unlock as you progress in the game - although they all come with a price in both money and materials, some rarer than others.
