Outside of that though its pretty great. Only other complaint I can think of is removing some of the orignal records, but I get its to tie it into the newer games

The original feels gloomy, warm, and cozy, akin to the feeling of a cozy rainy day in real life. The overall atmosphere and feeling of the original felt so much more calm, muted, quiet, home-y, and not overly bright like this remake kind of seems like. Other than that, I think the game is lovely! The original was a great portion of my childhood.

I also feel some of the character redesigns are a lot less charming than their original counterparts and hate how they've made livestock immortal. It's my understanding immortal livestock has been a thing for the past few games already but I really dislike it as it takes away the consequences of being neglectful in the care of your animals. That said, I'm still very much enjoying the remake as it's been very nostalgic revisiting these characters from nearly 20 years ago and the QoL improvements are definitely most welcome.

Like a softly glowing incandescent lamp in a Resident Evil Save Room. It was reminiscent of the aesthetic style of Shepherd's Crossing Ps2, another one of my favorite farming sim games. This remake looks very Animal Crossingified, if that makes any sense. Which isn't BAD, mind you, but I'm sad that we basically never see that more somber, quiet aesthetic that some older games had.

You should make a big video going through all differences from the original and remake. Also I like that you're able to bring your dog and cat into your house now, if you remember in the original they would jump out of your hands if you attempted to bring them into your home. Though if you sleep they get somehow spawn outside, guess your spouse kicked them out in the middle of the night, lol. Also they removed the feature of being able to push your animal out of the barn yard manual, and while it's not necessarily a convenient feature it had it's usage, for example if you had all your animals outside and a new one was brought in it'll be inside and you can push them outside to join the others. In the remake you'll have to ring the bell to bring all animals in and ring it again to get everyone outside. I also miss the tool shed and silo from the original. I hope they add a hardcore mode through an update or something to make it feel closer to the original like maybe bringing back animals getting sick and needing medicine and animal deaths as well as your cow not giving milk all the time, make money a tad harder to come by, and maybe even friendships go down if you don't interact with someone much. Just to add an additional but optional challenge to those who want that.

5:25 is the horse customizable im assuming? or do you get different options when getting the horse? I gasped when i saw it wasn't just a boring brown. Also I'm assuming you only get the one horse? I know it's not necessary to have more than one but, it's something i had always hoped for the remake

when you get the horse, you get a choice between three different colours

Ok. Looks great, and I loved the Original ALMOST as much as the SNES and N64 Harvest Moon games... Now... I hear they are also remaking my favorite Rune Factory Game as well(RF3)... heres hoping you do a vid on that as well. What I'd really like to see though? A remake of Innocent Life, With Tons of QoL upgrades... It was Harvest moon, Except you were a Robot. I never completed it, cause my PS2 Broke. While Harvest moon(now story of seasons) and Rune Factory have new games, and remakes, Innocent Life: A futuristic Harvest Moon Is the only Game in It's Spinoff Series. Also... I saw a HUGE upgrade you didn't mention. Auto-Collect. No more having to pick up and put away one item at a time, one bottle of milk at a time, etc... they pop out or fall to the ground, then it picks them up RPG Loot Style.

I do not think I would mind the lack of content. I have never played the original before because I did not find the graphic and slow farming appealing, so I am glad to see the improvements. I do wished there were more marriage candidates because I am really not attached to any of the current ones.

Absolute missed opportunity not to adapt content from the DS version of the game. It’s a remake after all. Btw you mentioned a good point about the Bachelors not being good-looking because originally Natsume didn’t plan on making a female version till after the success of More Friends in Mineral Town in GBA(technically the first female version).

I'm sorry if I overheard it but does it make sense to plant and sell something in this game? I remember you got the most money in the old version just by producing fruit seeds and everything else was pretty much wasted time... And what about the mine?
