I enjoyed this game a lot, but I can’t defend the dlc characters not being able to participate in festivals. It’s a huge oversight that needs updated- especially for the price the dlc was.

But instead, we got a game that completely bungles the two most important elements - farming and NPC characterization and interactions.

To me Olive Town has been a major disapointment, I wanted to give the game the benefit of the doubt even after removing portraits, but to me the characters are simply not expressive enough to warrant the removal of portraits and additionally the camera angle when talking to said character simply would not even show any expressivenes (if they had any). I think the charaacter design in general (as seen in the characters pictures, not in game) are really great but I think the graphic is not nearly good enough to do the drawn designs justice. The DLC are really not helping at this point, moreovr I feel like I wasted a lot of money on the game and dlc.

There's like no incentive to talk to any of the characters in the dlc areas unless you intend to marry one of them. It SUUUUUUUUCKS. I wish they were at least attached to olive town and the areas were built as part of olive town growing. it creates a reason for the characters to even move to olive town too. anyway the main draw for me was the new costumes and also just having more content. but there's so little content.... sigh...

I think in this case its legit to expect something more then we got. Because: They did it before, look at Trio of towns. They were able to do it, but they did not do it. In my point of view, that had the option to do more, then they did in previous entrys but they dropped the ball. And ruined probably their own reputation, almost as bad as Harvest Moon did. Which is a shame, as i am a fan of Story of Season since the first entry and purchased this game day 1, stopped playing it, because i wanted to wait for the expansion. Just to find out, it changes basically nothing. The new characters are not even a reason to get it, because if i want to marry them, i could play the game where they are in and have an better overall experience. But i wanted to see, how the old characters would interact with the current ones. The same as Rune Factory did in some regard. Its a shame. Maybe a few years back they would got away with this, but now with all the other options like Stardew Valley, My Time in Portia or hell, even Sakura rice and ruin, they really needed to step up their game. Literally. Great video. Really happy, that im not the only one beeing so disappointed in this game.

I've been scathing of this game since it first came out. As soon as I first checked the detective DLC my hopes of any improvement were dashed, and then crushed a little more when the first marriage candidate DLC dropped. Honestly, though, other than having spent money on an empty DLC (twice!), my biggest complaint is that they made the farming so empty. Yeah, the characters are a little better now, but they're not as important as the farming. It's just so empty and unrewarding. My biggest concern now is that Marvellous have already said they are keeping their relationship with Three Rings, the folks they outsourced this game to, and I'm not entirely convinced they will make any future games up to standard should they be in charge of the next Story of Seasons. But I am just borrowing trouble in that regard.

Man there was so much potential with this game! What if each area had its own story DLC and not just conversations with marriage candidates but like actual stuff to do? Like for instance what if they gave you seeds or animals that you had to raise and get to a certain heart level or star ranking with? There could have been one new shop in each area that specializes in items from that area.

Thanks for this video Wilder! I regret preordering PoOT for $79.99 AUD and the DLC for around $25 AUD. I've been an avid supporter of the Harvest Moon and Story of Seasons franchise ever since Harvest Moon DS and have purchased every single game since (excluding the newest HM games released after SoS). After playing PoOT for 60 hours I can say that this is by far this is the worst game in the franchise, it's basically an empty and lifeless shell of a game that has no lovable features. The cons that I have for this game greatly outweigh any pros I had in mind. I also purchased the DLC thinking that it would add more gameplay but the only thing it added was animal costumes that made it even harder to recognise the marriage candidates and areas that you could tell were placed in the game in a quick rush. I hope Rune Factory 5 doesn't disappoint me as much as PoOT has.

The areas are just so lifeless and empty. I was only one time there and than forgot the areas even existed. The game has some good aspect. I especially like the mine or decorate the farm. But almost every feature has a but that makes it less enjoyable. My list of cons is far longer than my list of pros and it is at this point my flop game of 2021. I still can't believe that they thought it would be okay to release it they way it is. If you want to have a beautiful decorated farm for example you have to life with it that the game runs horribly. There is no reason it runs so poorly on switch when you see other more graphically demanding games have no problem with it.

I've been a fan of the series (old school HM to SoS) for about 20 years now, and it sucks to say but I will probably wait a while before I buy another SoS game if this is the kind of quality we're expected to get going forward. My goodwill for a game series can only extend so far, and the Devs already struck out once with this game's poor quality control and planning, and the fact that they announced DLC for this game already knowing that it was about as finished as unbaked bread, and that the poor Japanese player base has to deal with Rune factory having the SAME quality control issues and bugs.

God yeah opening this game after a couple months was like... genuinely depressing. I had been waiting for the maker changes, and some DLC to come out since I really didn't like the game when it started. My mild OCD meant that 100% of my time playing the game was checking and refilling my makers. Didn't help that the characters were lifeless and made me feel like I was in a dystopian nightmare even more lmao. Three solid days of NPCs talking about that spring festival and an egg hunt... and then you actually get to the event... and it's a series of extremely slow-paced cutscene images... it was so insulting. Stopped playing there. Then finally opening the game up to check out the DLC and just... wow. I had seen everything in about 10 minutes. I was expecting at least some sort of significant cutscenes to introduce these new areas. It also feels weird and coldhearted that it just *poof* adds it to the boat behind our house. Like... I know it's more walking but it would've been kinda cute to use the harbor in town. But nope, just some extremely empty areas and cardboard people who also say essentially nothing and half the time you can't see their face at all because they are turned around. (like all the characters) I don't think it helps that past games in Story of Seasons, Harvest Moon, and Rune Factory all used character portraits, so it taught us that characters without portraits don't matter. Those were always the randomized single-day-visit characters with no names. So, this games has all their characters feel that way and it feels like a waste of my life to talk with them. I had such high hopes for this game, and it has disappointed me on every single front lol. I am so sad I bought it and the DLC as a preorder. Never again, lol. I am glad some people out there are getting some joy out of it, but as a person who works in video games, every aspect of this game depresses me and sucks the joy out of my soul. Lolol weeeee thanks for the video, glad to see other people upset tbh!

I would have like to see the characters offer new things to the player like, Felicia and Raeger can give you new recipes depending on your relationship with them that are only exclusive to the dlc. Raeger could even have a mini outside restaurant that he could serve them at. Or Neil could have special animals for sale that produce new things that can be useful to the player. Marian could offer over the counter medicine that increases Stamina or gives you boosts. Or maybe Ludus and Lissette could sell you new flower seeds and furniture. Youd have a reason to go back to these places and it adds more to the characters than just boosting your relationship with them and nothing more

So with the recent waves of discounts as of end of September of 2021, I was between buying Atelier Riza or SOS to try something out. Since normally in KZbin I have only seen the reviews from when it shipped, I was discussing with myself on whether to buy one or the other, then out of nowhere found your video and guess I'm going to try the Atelier series instead. Thanks for the honest review after release and the DLC!

As someone who's been waiting to buy this game in its complete state, this is a bummer. After the FoMT remake, I was so eager to see how we'd follow into the next evolution of the series. Then comes in the rough launch. But at least with pledges from the devs that gave me faith we'd get something special eventually. At this point though, it looks like it's gonna stay a mixed bag. I like the idea of the new mechanics and the official art (with no portraits to show off) looks gorgeous but everything else seems hit or miss. I'm not a big fan of Brandon or Jennifer from the remake but I would've thought with how their scenes, and daily schedules are lined up with the rest of the cast that we'd have better integration with this dlc's cast. I thought the appeal would be not just to see your returning faves but to see how they mesh with the new environment. As someone with no attachment to these folks I even liked the idea of marrying one but seeing as they're so separate from the core experience, I'd probably be better off with the main cast. And while I don't mind the area problems as much, it's baffling nonetheless. It looks uniform enough that you'd expect to see it as an extension to the main town. If we're gonna treat it as it's own land, than we need a wilder change in aesthetics with more to do in it. With how the expansion pass was plotted out before launch, I'm willing to believe this was the course of it before the devs had to start patching up the game. But with another price tag attached and the progress still to be made on the main game, I'm not holding hopes that this will get any better. I realize that this is an extensive rant for someone who hasn't even played the game but I hope it shows how much I anticipated and still want to see this game succeed. If nothing else, I hope the issues here can become lessons that'll improve later games. In the meantime, I can try out Sakuna.

I played for like 2 weeks and ditched the game :( Trio of Towns was one of my favourites because I went into it thinking I'd marry the doctor Ford or the Japanese guy with the blue hair Yuzuki... but ended up totally falling in LOVE with Hinata ;.; he charmed me so badly with his cute little artwork and how easily embarrassed he was. There were surprises! Loads to do, loads of places to unlock... jobs to do, people to talk too that were INTERESTING. If you're not going to emote your characters other than waving a hand about when they talk, then give us the artwork back. The characters in Olive town have as much personality as a blank piece of paper. Gutted.

Well said, Wilder. I can't agree more. I was starting to wonder if I was the only one who felt this way-it still sucks, but it's good to know others are just as disappointed as I am with the game. The DLC is extremely underwhelming. When I first walked through Windswept Falls I thought we could at least forage or cut trees...there's NOTHING to do there except talk to the characters which, am I the only one who finds it creepy Dunhill's living with a little girl...is she at least a relative? I thought she'd be living with Felicity? Super sad with this game in general, and if anyone's interested in a good "similar to the older Harvest Moon games" type, I recommend One World. They actually hit a home run with that one. I enjoyed it so much I put hundreds of hours into it and still go back to play it when I get bored of whatever new games I pick up. Their season pass content not only came with a brand new area where you can set up your farm, it added new seeds, new items, new forageables and new recipes as a result. Oh, on top of the two new marriage candidates. Which includes a really interesting side quest story to help them. Oh and a new mine on the DLC island. Really feels like SoS missed a great opportunity here and now I'm leary to buy their next title. Also it was expensive for the season pass and it's just such a let down. Also on a side note, I was hoping these expansion pass areas would allow us to build a little cottage, have a small farm land, anything! Really I can't believe how far from their original amazing titles they fell on this one.

I was really surprised to hear about Pioneers of Olive Town releasing this year and quite happy upon learning about the DLC mostly because Ludus was my favorite candidate from Trio of Towns. However, having seen what the first two areas are offering (what little that is), I'm just really sad about this being the first original Story of Seasons for the Switch. What I'm hoping is that they're learning from players' comments on what works and what could be improved for the next installment. At least, I'm HOPING there will be another Story of Seasons installment in the future. They have nowhere to go but up following the 6-7 rating for Pioneers of Olive Town (and that's being generous).

And they didn’t even try to create new album portraits for the DLC characters in this game it seems like. Granted I haven’t played all the DLCs’ origin games, but I know enough that those are reused assets at the very least. Even with letting that slide, what’s up with the jarring difference in their portrait sizes alone though ? For example, Raeger’s look so tiny and faraway compared to those of Olive Town folks’

I got the special edition (with the plushy) when it first came out. Spent around $90 (Canadian) + tax and then I got the dlc on top of it for another $20. I played the game for like 2 hours and decided to return it. I just recently repurchased it for $50 (same special edition) because I thought the patches would make it better. While it IS better, it's far far away from being a good game. There is literally zero motivation to talk to anyone in the town. They are all boring as hell. How many times can I hear that you like coffee, Damon? Gah it's like it doesn't have any soul. Then I went to visit the expansion areas thinking the Devs learned something from the disaster that was the release of this game, and nooooope. They learned nothing. The whole game feels just like a cash grab to me. I expected this from Natsume but not from Marvelous. And the main reason why the soul is missing from this game is because the old SOS Devs left to work on rune factory 5... And it shows. It really really shows. Real shame 😔. At this point I would prefer it if they just remade the original story of seasons, trio of towns and a tale of two towns. I would play any of those games any day over this one.

I really wanted to enjoy this game but I have been way underwhelmed by it. Between the loading taking forever, the constant lag even when I didn’t decorate my farm, the way the cooking functioned and recycled animations, the infuriating makers that they did at least fix but it took them so long I was no longer interested in the game. No where really to explore and I really just didn’t connect with any of the characters. The art style even just really says mobile game to me. Idk if I’m just being harsh but I tried I put about 15 hours into it and then couldn’t make myself come back to it.

I was super excited for Raeger since none of the vanilla marriage candidates really appealed to me. I won him over, married him, and then I found out he wouldn't participate in any of the couple festivals. Not even a special little private event just at your house if they couldn't( or were too lazy ) to code him to interact with Olive Town itself

Even though I personally bought the DLC and was going to marry the DLC, I just can't seeing how they don't interact at all with the town. Big disappointment as I could see like Felicia becoming a server alongside Blaire and Neil becoming really good friends with Damon. In general both PoOT and RF5 just seem like games that are the shells of their former selves when you look at their previous entries. If they just had one big team focus on either PoOT or RF5 at a time, I don't think we as fans would be left this dissatisfied. And as a fellow game designer, I just don't understand why the lack of cross communication from ToT to PoOT, considering you would just be copying and pasting old code into the newer game, as I doubt that would affect much changes due to going from 3DS to Switch. This whole thing is just a lot to think about.

It's sad that you can't even buy anything useful in the dlc areas, there are no shops. It feels like a expensive garage for marriage candidates. But I also think the "make our town prettier"-thing for the Mayor does nothing. Little to no (at least visual) improvements, it's too easy with only 1 of 3 things you have to give them and it adds nothing except a little story. I miss the big stories that you could follow without a pause, like in tree of tranquility. But it feels so context-empty and more like "here is your base, now play on your own".
