I probably would’ve already gotten it if wasn’t early access, the possibility of having to restart a game that requires a lot of time commitment is a deal breaker for me, so I’d rather wait until it’s finished. On another note, I’m kind of tired of so many Stardew Valley clones, I wish there were more games like Rune Factory instead with less farming and more RPG and dungeon crawling. I think the only one like that that comes to mind is Sun Haven(?) and that one has been in my backlog since forever now…
Sun haven was a pleasant experience. Rather than automating farming, I just cause earthquakes and rainstorms to plow and water respectively. My only complaint is my thumb hurting from constantly air dashing around.
Man I love Sun Haven! I definitely feel more involved in tending to my crops by using magic than setting up a sprinkler system. Co-op made for a really cute time.
Part of me wished the story was a little bit more than just an excuse to get you new farms but wouldn’t want to ruin the tone haha.
I totally understand this, and I used to feel the same way but then I realized that these creators probably need the support if they are going to go from early access to full release. It really helps, and it wasn’t really that much, $14. I canceled World of Warcraft And Hulu for a month because there was nothing to watch there anyway. That was more than enough to buy it. But I don’t blame you at all of you don’t want to support early access games! I totally understand
I don’t really mind early access, but it really depends on the game, stuff that is very pick-up and play like roguelikes and shooters is fine, but anything story based or long is a hard pass for me.
That’s like Rune Factory? I thought it was more like Minecraft/Terraria but top-down. It’s been living in my Steam wishlist for a while too now, waiting for a decent discount.
it’s a different flavor. Stardew is more like a farming sim, and a lot more rugged and rural farming feeling. Mistria is more anime themed and cozy feel, definitely geared towards chicks or those who like pretty aesthetics and cozy vibes. I also really LOVE the color palette, everything is gorgeous
Magic. Love the magic
The romance options are just better. They’re more authentic, they’re special
Less nuance/annoying stuff that Stardew has you have to mod out, like friendship levels that decrease over time and become annoying as fuck tbh
Less hardcore. Some stardew-ers have minmax strategies for everything and it’s hilarious. Exact locations to put items in order to min-max the absolute biggest harvests
I’m still learning but Mistra is soooooooooooo much more fun
Because this is a South Korean game, I felt it was only right to play it in its original Korean language (with English subtitles, because I don’t speak much Korean). English dubs on Asian works just feels weird to me.
But I lived overseas for almost a decade, so I’m used to hearing foreign languages. It feels more authentic to me to hear something in its original language. I know a lot of Americans don’t like to hear foreign languages in their movies or games though (or read subtitles while watching something), so there is English in this game if you prefer.
I also turn on subtitles anywhere I can, because I have ADHD and my brain won’t focus on auditory signals. So being able to read while someone’s talking helps me to stay focused and in-tune with the conversation. It helps to provide context in some of these screenshots though, which is a bonus.
It’s rare to see a RPGmaker game with VA. I wonder how that happened. RPGmaker is the tool that you use when you don’t have money to spend on anything but still want to make a game.
You got me curious. I’ll check it one of these days. I like narrative-heavy games and it seems right up my alley.
I‘ve been playing it for like 12 hours so far, runs smooth on Deck, I’ve encountered no bugs so far, and I‘m not even in my first fall. If it didn‘t say early access, I wouldn‘t have been able to tell yet. I haven‘t regreted my purchase and it‘s honestly cheap even without a discount.
The camera scrolls so stupidly smooth it‘s a joy, played a bunch of pixel games lately and it‘s sadly not a given (Potion Permit and its random stutters and sudden CPU load increases).
These kinds of moments are pure Remedy magic. Take Control is similarly amazing but hell, they’ve been doing quirky levels since Max Payne! Maybe even Death Rally? I never played that one.
I found this game during Next Fest and wishlisted it, but later removed it. It’s a concept that appeals to me, but my list is already long enough and I can’t realistically afford and play everything on it. The art style also doesn’t really land for me. I think cute + gore is a really fun contrast, but the way cute stuff looks in this game is too ugly for me. I guess I’m wishing too much for Happy Tree Friends as a game, which historically has had a poor record in games.
