In Trio of Towns, the relationship with Woofio ends with him regaining his humanity, but because he was stuck as the suit so long, he feels weird without it, so he continues wearing it. So, still weird, but not as weird as having a kid with an empty suit.

It's fairly well known that the FIRST version of HM:DS (v1.0) was REALLY BUGGY. So much so that they had to stop production of the current batch, fix the issues and then release an updated version (v1.1) for the rest of it's lifetime. I found out the hard way when I tried to achieve certain tasks as a kid only to find out it was PHYSICALLY IMPOSSIBLE on the version I had. You can tell the difference in the versions by the printed serial number on the back of the DS cart, if it has something like ABCEN0Jxx (where xx can be any 2 random digits) then you unfortunately have the original buggy v1.0 release, though if you got something like ABCEN1Jxx then you would have the updated v1.1 version. In the end I did end up picking up a v1.1 much later on in life for the sake of completion.

My first Harvest Moon game was Harvest Moon Animal Parade. So far the only weird things I can remember off the top of my head is a rubber duck appears in your water tower at random, Luna calls Selena trash, how to end the game you have to have your first born child water a tree for a week and send them off to Waffle Island. And then said Child returns to your New Game+ to give you gifts. If you think about it, its kinda morbid. "Ah I'm on my own adventure to save an island! Yay I did it! Time to go home! Huh. Why does no one remember me?"

Awesome video! Another semi creepy detail about DS Cute is with Daryel. He mentions his forefathers did amazing work with cloning, now that cool but when you consider how weird it is that all the villagers looks and act the same as they do in a Wonderful life BUT with this game taking place on the timeline like 3 generations later or something since the old player farmer from AWL has their grave in DS Cute, it kinda leads me to believe it’s a town of clones. That might be why in game after you have the post child time skip the circus comes and sets up shop there. A town of clones is probably a good side attraction for a circus.

in Harvest Moon DS, there's a bunch of dreams the player can have on new year's. one of them is extremely rare and has barely any footage online. in it, you and several villagers are gathered in a cave with Leia the mermaid. everyone starts chanting "fish" and the screen cuts to black. when it returns, Leia is gone, and everyone is eating fish. the implications... there's only one video showing it, called "Harvest moon DS New years Dream: big catch". at first I thought it was fake, but there's forum posts and japanese sites that mention it. hopefully someone can get better footage of the dream.

Some other notable ones which would fit in this would prob be: The fact that in HM:DS you can legit get two bad endings related to death of people, one at start where you attack Thomas and don't help him while your dog attacks him and then it rolls credits, and the other one is by putting a Lv. 100 Poison Mushroom for the harvest festival stew where you presumably kill the whole town and yourself in a cult like fashion. (Though in all fairness here, it's really rare to see the 2nd one given how hard it is to get one to Lv. 100.) There is also the FoMT whole hidden 4:44 watching tv horror bit which in the JP version is a superstition, while in the NA version it's a legit bug which scares ya cus it loops text on the screen and sometimes can softlock you.

Here's a few more examples: HM 64: If you befriend Cliff and don't romance Ann, they will marry and end up in an abusive relationship. Occasionally, talking to Cliff will show him with a black eye and he will comment that he and his wife had a fight last night, insinuating that Ann punched him in the face and is physically abusive, because it will continue to happen periodically throughout their marriage. HM 64: Karen's family is deeply dysfunctional. While her and her father get into screaming matches, her mother Sasha is a despondent mute when you first meet her. Gotz is an alcoholic who spends every. night. at the bar, and Karen is starting to go down the same path by being one of the hardest characters to out-drink at the New Years festival. She is desperate to leave Flower Bud Village because she is miserable. HM AWL: If you befriend/romance Muffy but ultimately choose to marry someone else, she will show up at your house and initially berate you for leading her on, which is already rough, but then she gets sad because she just wants to find love and thought you were it. HM AWL(SE): Being able to marry Lumina is weird, full stop. You meet her when she's still a developing adolescent and you're a grown adult. Just because she hits age 18 doesn't mean it's cool to date her. It feels icky. HM FoMT: There is a good argument to be made that Rick is racist. He is generally a friendly, hardworking, and serious person - but whenever Kai is mentioned he loses it, starts yelling and insulting the guy. No one else in Mineral Town has any issue with Kai, he's just a dude who likes to travel and brings some diversity to the local economy during Summer. Rick doesn't care about anyone else talking to his sister, only Kai. So why? Kai is the only black/brown villager. HM FoMT: During Winter, if you enter the town square you will find Cliff passed out. You'll bring him to the clinic where he'll resting in a bed for several days. If you pass out during one of these days, you'll see him getting carried away and tossed aside so you can have his bed instead. HM SoS: The first character you are introduced to is Eda. She teaches you how to farm and basically treats you like a new grandchild; she even leaves her land to you in her last will. Then she dies, and there's nothing you can do about it. Afterwards, not a single villager will EVER mention Eda. Everyone goes on as if your honorary grandma never existed.

My first Harvest Moon was, well, Harvest Moon! In 1997, my grandma recommended to my brother and I the game because it was about farming, and we enjoyed playing with farm animal toys, that, and probably because it looked like wholesome non-violent fun. And then... It blew our minds. The little things that we take for granted now, like a day and night system, customizing your own little personal space, the fact that it's a game about FARMING. Harvest Moon was revolutionary, and it deserves more attention and accolades. I appreciate Stardew for making farming games mainstream, but Harvest Moon was the OG, before the Sims, before Animal Crossing, before Boku No Natsuyasumi, before Farmville, before most everything of the genre that was a god-point-of-view sim-city type of game. It's one of those games that should be inducted into a hall of fame, heck, put Farmer Pete in Smash Bros.!! Hah! But oh my god, Ellen dying in Harvest Moon 64 hit me hard... Not only for the obvious reasons, but because... that was Ellen, the very same Ellen from Harvest Moon SNES, the one that gave you your dog at the beginning of the game... To see such an integral and beloved character, pass away in a sequel set generations later, was heartbreaking. Great vid.

I never had mineral town so I was never able to go up. also the perpetually closed shed in the corner of your property that I thought for sure would open one day to reveal a gruesome scene lol. I’m also super excited about the remake but the newer one is definitely more bright and vibrant and I did find that the older, more darker color palette fed into the sometimes eerie feelings I would get, which I did love haha.

In Harvest Moon DS luckily neighbours don't annoy you anymore for using golden lumber for fencing. But somehow murder is posible in the game, at least twice. In other videogames the games also ask your blood type, like villagers from Animal Crossing. Beware, the reason why the superstion of blood types being related to personality is common in Japan i because it was made up by a japanese eugenicist from the 60s.

(TwT) Oh and uhhhh….I actually realised a few days ago but HM DS Pete is abit of a menace. Like who hurt you?!?? The start of the game he legit is willing to kill the mayor off (though Thomas was being a huge ass mocking his father’s or grandfather’s farmland) which is just dang! It creeped me out when I was little. He also seems to not want to do anything either- like maybe he’s going through something and we don’t know? He’s also not bothered about slaying zombie-like animals in the mines or other humans who resembles legit him. I hope that if they do make a remake for DS that they add a lot of new features that makes it different to AWL but we also get to know more about this version of Pete and why he’s this way. :3
