i’ve never heard of the term “cluttercore” but that describes me to a T! super excited for this game

[@laelindria]

Hehe it’s a term I’ve carried over from my Animal Crossing days ❤

[@Ethrianor]

I wasn't sure about the graphics from stills, but I feel like it fits (was introduced to Tolkien's books as a little kid) now I've seen it running. Thanks for this 😁

[@laelindria]

Exactly! To me it felt better once it was all running cohesively

[@emmjaygames]

I like the idea of the cooking being similar to Palia's, and I REALLY love the dinner party mechanic. I think my big question is: is there any kind of story progression from what you saw? I happen to think that's where a LOT of cozy games fall short for me-- I do need some lil missions or quests that are a little more than just "set up your decor spot" (tho I do also love decor....)

[@galacticmoonwolf8462]

I have one question you didn't mention, what's the music like? For me the ost is what makes a cosy game and is part of the life.

[@oeurydice]

I hope it'll be Howard Shore's music from the films

[@oeurydice]

My first DnD character was a halfling - I am so excited to remake her in this game

[@itsanniedee]

This video eased a lot of my own worries. Thanks!

[@laelindria]

I’m glad to hear it!

[@xelharosas4763]

I was looking forward to this game but now that I know that the cooking is similar to Palia I am rethinking it. Thanks for letting us know.

[@laelindria]

Of course! I’m glad it was helpful to you

[@gandalf4751]

Hobbit 😍😍😍

[@b-l1969]

Sounds great! Did you get any indication if we'd be traveling anywhere outside of Bywater? Would be a shame to have Hobbiton and Bag End so close without being able to pay a visit!

[@laelindria]

I didn’t see any indication of this but I only played a small bit, so who knows! I would love that as well! They did mention Bilbo once ❤

[@Denzamusic]

Palea I do not know shit about But I played harvest moon since 1996. So this game will be awesome.

[@JustCallMeKopi]

Animal Crossing, Lord of the Rings style!

[@StephMaria286]

Hey when does this game come out?

[@arlenissofia831]

💫💫💫

[@Sunbearsnuggles]

So excited for this! Thank you for sharing. Is there a way to sign up for a chance to play pre release?

[@laelindria]

No that I know of but I’m keeping my eyes on news for this game and will post about it as we know more ❤

[@Sunbearsnuggles]

@laelindria Awesome thank you for the content! It was nice to see more on this

[@SpaceTravel1776]

Hobbits without tobacco, smoking, and beer? Come on.

[@michalmaj]

is there pipe weed and pipe smoking in this game?

[@bedrhnyldz]

keşke türkçe altyazıda olsaymış

[@bedrhnyldz]

stardew valleyin birebir aynısı ama 3d olsaydı oyun tutardı. benzemiş ama tam olarak stardewe benzemiyor

[@saludfernandez4857]

cuando se puede jugar a este juego?

[@matsta177]

Is this an iOS mobile game?

[@hallowtide93]

I was excited for this game but cooking is my least liked cozy game activity 😢

[@CeresOutpost]

This should be a mobile game. Who plays games like this on PC?
