I've been hearing a lot about this game but it looks like one of those indie games that would be pozzed to hell...

stardewvalley.net/
Yeah it looks like its almost done for the multiplayer bits. Beta should come out by december according to him

They banned a mod from the steam workshop that turned every character white.

I feel terrible for anyone who still uses Steam when GOG is an option for the vidya in question
And really just in general

It's a solid harvest moon-alike that manages to get a lot of things right that other HM imitators get wrong. I personally enjoyed my playtime with it. If you expect deep rune factory-tier combat, don't, the combat is kind of tacked on, but the farming and sim aspects are fully fleshed out. The music is nice, and it's a fairly comfy game overall.

While timely multiplayer would have been nice, just the singleplayer alone is worth buying it. It was also a solo project that took the creator like 5 years, and despite chucklefuck publishing it (and now working on the multiplayer+ports), it was a game made by someone who actually loves vidya. Do with that information what you will.

There's a racemixing family and it's basically the only family that isn't broken in some way, plus they appear to be among the highest intelligence/importance. That's pretty much where the pozz ends though, and you can download a simple texture pack to turn them white or whatever if you want.

It's pretty comfy, but it's one of those games you should may want to consider pirating for principle/ideological reasons/whatever.

The black dude is overprotective as shit of his daughter, has completely alienated his stepson, and his marriage with his wife is so shaky that the developer has said bluntly that he considered adding a marriage route for the wife where you break their marriage up and take her for yourself.

The builder was my first pick, then I found out she was a coal burner.

The pain was real.

Demetrious (sp?) is a colossal faggot though, rude and over protective. Im going to delibrately break his daughters heart one day.

All pixelshit rpgs made by indie devs are ubiquitously pozzed.
It's a rule.

Its the monstergirl mod finished? how good is it?

It's Babby's First HM and falls apart within the first couple of hours. RF4 is superior in absolutely every way. The only feature Stardew would have had over it is multiplayer, but networking is too hard for indiedevs.

Oh ffs

I actually like it because I fucking believe some of the characters. Shane's bullshit hit close to home.

It`s like Harvest Moon but worse, it adds nothing to the formula except some subtle progressive drivel, not much tho it fails to even be propaganda. Also it has faggots.

Porn mods are ok, there`s even one that changes the animals to be monstergirls

It's shit, just like just about anything else.

It is not even a vibe. Compared to RF4 Starjew is so mechanically shallow you should never touch it.
Everything else is even worse. Setting makes no fucking sense and is taken from some child cartoon. Villain in this game is Supermarket. Characters aren't better. They are so fucking bland. I am amazed that managed to get any emotional connections to NPC that only says one line quotes like villager from FF.

When I played it I was fucking amazed at all the people who praised it. They were all so fucking wrong.
Only thing this game done right is fact it is on PC, but than only proves people can't emulate.

Yes, to hell and back. Dark background underneath the bright and cheery hood.

Seb (the "white male") is keptlocked up in the basement and the family rarely mentions him and some townfolks do not even know he exists.

Mediocre, a fun time sink with mod to de-pozz all the shit.Farm designing can be pretty fun and lots of options on what to do besides agriculture (you can have a hugefuck vineyard or orchard for example). But against RF and HM? Nah, it is pretty shit.

There's a dumb relationship system; I had bought that specific npc a beer on his birthday and he magically transformed into an alcoholic from the relationship boost.
The relationship system changes what every villager says and how they interact with eachother in the version I pirated. There's cutscenes that get triggered when relationship levels are high enough, and that specific NPC just so happened to emulate a few interactions I had with an alcoholic friend of my own in his cutscenes.

The art started off as something vaguely anime-ish and then just got tumblr'd the fuck up the further down the line we got.

I bought this game and deeply, deeply regret it.

Why waste your time depoozing this shit when you could support better indie devs instead? There are other indie pixel games that aren't trying to sell you anything, but are just fun. Don't waste your time on average/sjw-y things, there are people out there making good stuff that isn't propaganda.

Jesus fucking christ that is horrible.

Have you played anything but the launch version?

He increased movement speed (especially diagonally), lengthened days, and animals are an actual way to make money now.

It's good, I've played it twice and enjoyed both times. It's fun breaking the game, the endless dungeon isn't too much fun and it's too easy to get the best ending and after that there's no real reason to keep going.

I've only played one other game like this before, Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town on GBA, so I understand if there are better games of this kind out there, but I definitely loved this one.

That's a woman in bondage.
The tail is a butt plug.

I'm guessing there's fucking huge version differences. If you're going to play it, pirate the latest build. It should be available in a GOG version from the share thread archives.

It replaces your pet NPC's sprite. It's fucking weird hearing a cat going "MEOW" when it's obviously a woman.

The only reason to play this is if you have to play a shittier Harvest Moon/Story of Seasons game on PC and you don't want to emulate.

To be fair i'm getting fucking sick of all the SoS games coming out on the 3ds only though.

Right in the middle they look distinctly western and decent.
Why did they have to keep going?

From the looks of it, the artist was trying to avoid making them have sameface.
He failed miserably.

I bet most of the retards crying about this game here didn't even play it. Here is an honest review from someone who isn't coming from a Tumblr or Holla Forums safe space:

It's chill and fun in a casual way. Good time waster. Not the best of the HM clones (RF4 is obviously the best) but it's decent, has mods, and will run on a potato. As for it being pozzed: it's very minor. If don't unironically fly swastikas you'll barely notice it. If you do, the tiniest fucking things already set off your autism so just go ahead and skip this game.

Dev says multiplayer is coming early 2018, but as usual never buy a game based on features it *will* have, otherwise you're just an early access faggot.

My friend gave me this game and said it was really good. What a faggot.

Middle, left, I'd take anything over what we have right now.

Its pretty good. Honestly asking 'is it pozzed' which is literal goonspeak is only going to bring out goons saying it is so you are shit out of luck from OP on that point.
But even though its a fun harvest moon clone it does have problems with its structure. You can just do something like grow hops all summer and keep making insane amounts of money from brewing in winter which has been designed as the 'cool off period' where you make no money but go level in the mines instead which is better spent on rainy days instead.
The early goal is the ghost of your grandfather visiting in 3 years but by the summer of your second year you will probably have teched up to all the best stuff and gotten married and have your perfect, autistically laid out farm and have nothing to do in game but wait for a cutscene another 6 seasons and 240 ingame days away.

I can compare it to vanilla minecraft. When you dont know what you are doing for the first time and monsters come at night and spawn in your shitty hovel and everythings chaos its fun. But when you know what to do and can make a perfectly lit and impenetrable compound and mine down to diamond in a good 30 minutes and realise you have nothing let to do you feel no incentive to play. Its the same thing here.
Granted theres multiplayer eventually which will probably be fun but they really need some updates with new challenges so you can actually fall upon hard times and the like.

Right now its fun and worth getting at a budget price but you will be out of things to do before every reaching the intended end state. So its weird. You will probably get completely absorbed for a week of 'just one more days farming, oh fuck its 2am and i lost 3 more hours' but then just lose that drive and stop altogether before 'beating' it.

...

Its okay, if these kinds of tiny economy games are your thing its a fun game. Dont expect a ton of depth but still i thought it was worth its price in the end
.

He's a basement dweller, he isn't locked up down there.

98% of the time you go down there he's jacking off on the computer.

Multiplayer was the one thing I wanted to be added, then I would have bought it. But the dev decided a Switch version was more important. So I'm sitting here with $15 still in my wallet, happy I didn't jump the gun and buy it.

In what way? "it's not gay if it's you bro"?

Well that's less horrifying. Still, what on earth convinced these buffoons to insert this sort of shit into a genre that revolves around cozy farman life?

It's one fucking guy, my dude.

Thanks, but how are the soundtrack and waifus? I'll probably pirate it, can you recommend any mods that improve the game or is the vanilla just fine?

It says a lot about how badly the Harvest Moon franchise has been mishandled that a poor imitation could blow up.

Uncanny, it's like America from 90's to present day horror. It's like you can see the hormones losing balance.

If the game is pozzed then how come the dev didn't delete the mod to turn the black family white? That mod caused a shitpocalypse in the forums so the dev definitely saw it.

Dear lord you weren't kidding, I looked up the shit you are talking about and the discussions on it are even worse. Especially that Penny chick.

These people have never lived on a farm, these people are forcing their degeneracy on farm life. I haven't played RF4 yet but I'm booting that up and playing it over this nonsense.

should I delete the thread or leave it here so other people can vent and shit on this hipster garbage?

Probably because Chucklefuck runs the forums, not the dev, and they're on a whole other level of incompetence.

Being political would have caused a fuckhuge bigger shitpocalypse to arrive and ruin the game for a load of people.
t. Yooka Laylee devs

isn't that the guy from terraformers?

This. Ignoring it is the safest option; deleting it gets you into the same clusterfuck that Paradox was in with the Stellaris white people mods. And that one didn't even end with the mod staying down from Steam, the guy reuploaded it and they never touched it.

Cuckold

Same way as every single game that has included faggot marriage since the first, yeah. The faggot characters in Mass Effect are only faggots because the ✡PC✡ shows interest.

This. It should be expected in waifu/husbando games.

Word of God says Penny didn't cheat.

Schrodinger's faggotry?

It's Homo Erectus.

The money thing doesn't matter because once you're in roughly the second season you make such a stupidly high amount money loses all value.

The issue is the game runs out of stuff to do so rapidly. There's absolutely no real reason to play past the first year unless you really want to do specifically time locked events, but you fall into a rut so absurdly quickly because of how easy the game is. The pacing is awkward mainly because of the lingering threat from GIANT CORPORATION THAT IS SOULLESS. It's just awkward.

Don't get me wrong it's a 6/10 game simply because it doesn't have any horrible gamebreaking bugs that I remember, and it works… most of the time, but that doesn't mean it doesn't suffer from a ton of the pitfalls harvest moon clones fall into.

It's pretty good. I was suggested to play RN4 a long time ago, before Stardew Valley, and I couldn't stand the amount of tedious bullshit grinding and moeblob characters. You also can't romance the dragon so when I found out about that I dropped it immediately.

>>>/fur/

Cute. Leah and Penny are better anyway

wat

that's fucking bullshit, Shane was always an alcoholic even when you meet him initially, it's only when you max out his relationship he drastically reduces his drinking

...

Is this possible in vanilla?

What do you think?

probably not but it can't hurt to dream

is that a mod or just a an evil gif made to tease?

its a good game.

Good to know you're able to read minds and his actual intentions go against what he explicitly said
You're not supposed to do it all at once genius, you're supposed to manage your time during the month. Not sure how you missed that.
You're supposed to be spending it farming user. It's why it's a farming game.
1: You're in a town, making a small as fuck town ruins immersion
2: Refer to my previous point of a horse.
3:Even without a horse i never had any issues with time when moving, but I didn't dawdle like an idiot, I actually knew where I was going. You two seem to just be shit at managing your time resource.

It's ok, just more of the same though. Doesn't do anything particularly interesting

I'm speechless, have you faggots even played the series you're talking up? I've played roughly 8 or 9 Harvest Moon games and here's my evaluation:

While the characters in Stardew Valley are somewhat bland and/or lame, this game actually understands the Harvest Moon series better than anyone at Marvelous has for over a decade. I would put it right up there with the best games in the Harvest Moon series. The only thing I can't say about this game so far is whether it has a proper End, or if it's another non-game pile of wasted potential like Friends of Mineral Town was. Would really hate if it's the latter.

It doesn't have a definite end, and after patch 1.05 the evaluation after two years (the final end goal, in a way) is both repeatable and much more lenient than it used to be.

I really don't know what problem people have with endless grind in Harvest Moon games. Back when we weren't allowed to do it that was what everybody wanted, but now it's suddenly mandatory that you lose all your progress after a while for a Harvest Moon game to be good.

It's important for the grind to end in order for it to be an actual game: a test of skill. Evaluation time is essentially where you find out your high score. Part of the fun of replaying the best Harvest Moon games is that skill essentially boils down to strategizing how to plan your weeks and days in order to end with the most accomplished. That's disappointing to hear the evaluation is easy to ace. Harvest Moon 64 is great because you really have to put a lot of thought and effort in to get that party picture at the end.

Even i know that faster diagonal movement is an amateur game dev fault, "animals make money so they are useful" but FOR WHAT PURPOSE FAGGOT, this user at least argumented about my points

All in all, i meant that the dev put features there "because rune factory/HM have them!11!!", but without adding a purpose.

Monsters on RF/HM can be trained to help to farm=>You have more room for farm management=>Now you have more time available=>That means you can go deep into other game mechanics.
Like shelling out a decent combat system, so it's more than ARCING-SLASH.
And don't get me started on enemies AI, fuck that shit is basic as fuck and doesn't feel rewarding: Thougher enemies mean MORE DAMAGE TO YOU LOL, FUCK BETTER PATTERNS.
Or maybe more complex dungeons, instead of getting a 100lvl copy-pasted shit, thought to be completed on segments of 10 lvl(per checkpoint i think) per day. That shows the dev wanted you to rush it, not to enjoy it. And it also shows that the margin of time given by the dev is shit.

Also >You two seem to just be shit at managing your time resource
No faggot, i'm saying that making a game so you have to rush it's the opposite of comfy, i never felt so pressured on the RF games as i felt on SV
also best sister right there

You mean only shelling out a combat system. Rune Factory is a mediocre ARPG first and foremost, with farming elements tacked on because Harvest Moon had them. Stardew Valley is about running a farm before everything else. It goes completely against the spirit of a Harvest Moon game to just let the game play the farming part itself (although you can do it in FotMT if that's your cup of tea) while you whack monsters who shoot you from offscreen with your stick and get meaningless level ups for doing the most trivial tasks like walking, picking up items and sleeping before 1 AM every minute. Farm animals in Stardew Valley exist to produce animal products, not to play Harvest Moon by themselves while you are playing something else in a game that bore the Harvest Moon subtitle for three mainline games.

But I don't know, maybe there is more purpose to farming when crops exist to randomly give you permanent bonuses to HP and attack upon harvest, and farm animals give you one crafting ingredient that they'd drop on a kill anyway every day. Since god knows the developers of Harvest Moon had no idea what they were doing when they just threw in random shit like digging dirt and tending to a cow with no purpose other than to sell cucumbers and milk for money when they could have focused on combat, dungeons and AI instead.

Not to defend combat in Stardew Valley, but it really isn't any worse than in any Harvest Moon game.

Then what's the point of putting combat on the first place? It's obvious that combat was at the design's core when they created the game, and with farming, you need to balance those two.
At least on RF going to the mines/dungeons helped with crafting shit (not talking only about ores) and felt useful.
I'm not saying RF is christ's second coming nigger, i know it's flawed, but SV is a watered down copy with an identity crisis about its gameplay focus, more preoccupied about adding things because "RF/HM has them" without going deep on them.
I enjoyed SV, but after the first year i couldn't bother myself to continue, shit was repetitive as fuck and didn't feel there was any reward to continue it.

The game is insanely easy to mod so I wouldn't be surprised
