  • Really fun game similar to Stardew Valley and Harvest Moon
Edition: Standard Edition
Loving this game so far, have about 50 hours into it. Here's the key concepts: - You can plant crops/farm (like in Stardew Valley and Harvest Moon) - Instead of barns for animals, you build Monster Barns for your Monsters. You don't buy the monsters at the store though, the monsters are roaming around the open world. You can fight them and bring their health down a bit, and feed them/give them items to befriend them. If you're getting only a skull icon over their head, it means you dont have space in your monster barn (or dont have a barn yet). If you get a heart, followed by a skull, it means it's not friendly enough just yet and wants you to give it more stuff. Once you do, the hearts blink and it becomes your tamed monster. - With monsters in your barn, you can assign them to do field work. This basically consists of planting seeds and watering your crops for you. You can have 3 monsters on 1 field, and its really nice to not have to go around watering everything. - You can bring monsters with you to help you explore the world and fight other monsters. You can also talk to people and request they explore with you (press L & R at the same time, then ask them to go adventuring). There can be a maximum of 4 in your party (you +combo of 3 people/monsters). - You can craft weapons and armor, you can cook a wide range of foods, you can make your own medicine, etc. - You can upgrade your weapons and armor up to 10 times at your forge. You can place items you buy, such as the forge or cooking table, etc., just about anywhere, even outside -- you aren't limited to your own house. The whole world is yours! Helpful tips: 1) Fast travel everywhere. 2 minutes real-time = 1hour in game. 2) Press the MINUS key on your controller, then X , to fast travel to your bed in your house. Then save the game frequently, especially if you're low on health. It gets expensive very quickly to be healed at the clinic should you faint. 3) Always travel with monsters/people if you're able to, the help they provide (including causing Aggro so you are not solely taking damage) is worth it. 4) You can temporarily befriend a monster in the wild by holding ZL, then releasing it once its charged. The monster you hit with that magic constricting move, has a chance of swapping to your team for 24 hours. You can also feed them/give them items at that point to try and keep them permanently. 5) Keep plenty of lumber and bricks on hand at all times, you need a ton of them to build everything. 6) As soon as you run out of RP, STOP doing field work or you'll burn through your HP fast. Instead, Fast Travel to the Blue Moon Inn, and go to the spa. It does not move time forward, and you become fully healed (HP and RP). Then you can fast travel back to your field, without having to waste food. Overall, I think this game is a better version of Stardew Valley with better graphics. With that said, I do have my switch on a dock with a fan to help cool it down because the Switch does get hot (I have the OLED version). Even with the fan, there is in-game stuttering, most notable when you fast travel. It clears up after 3 or 4 seconds, and I haven't noticed any stuttering during battles. There will hopefully be a patch released to address this, but it's completely playable and hasn't froze on me or crashed so I'm okay with it. ... show more

  • It's pretty good!
Edition: Standard Edition
I like it! It's addictive to play, and soothing. It can be laggy, and stutter. And the way the furniture looks is very clunky and big and just doesn't go right against the walls if you want them to, it's pretty dissatisfying. But gameplay is good, i like the characters -LOVE the male characters, especially Murakumo and Martin. Only giving it four stars because of the small lag -which isn't bad, just a few seconds. I don't mind it! But I know for others that could be a deal breaker. And I can't stand that we can't put the furniture right against the wall, because it feels so dissatisfying. All in all, i find it very enjoyable!! ... show more

  • Rune factory games
Edition: Standard Edition
I am a light weight gamer, I love the Rune Factory games. The fighting is easy to learn, just make sure you learn to cook and make healing potions. I love the characters and wondering the world. It's cozy with a challenge.

  • Love having a Rune Factory back...back could've been better
Edition: Standard Edition
I'll start off by saying that I'm up through the summer of my first year ATM and am having a lot of fun. I can't wait to sit down and play more! However I held off on getting this game because of bugs and let downs I'd heard of since it's launch, and I'm sad to see they still haven't fixed it. The game lags. If the switch can have games as expansive as BoTW, I don't get why a game of this proportion lags so much. I have a lot of my Switch's games and files stored on an SD card, so you wouldn't think memory and such would be an issue. And from other reviews I've seen, I'm not the only one. I've changed whatever settings I could to minimize this, but it feels unavoidable. I've had 2 game crashes so far. Both times were simply just playing. One time was while I was loading into a dungeon. The other time was when I was simply cleaning up the debris on a farm dragon. I'm grateful for autosave, but it still sucks to lose the days progress. The town feels too big and empty. A lot of the buildings look the same. It took me a bit to remember what building was what because it was the same old, worn wood look everywhere. I miss RF4 because of how full the town felt. I love exploring the open fields and forests in RF5! But coming back to town just feels so bland. They could've given Rigbarth a lot more life with the same layout if they had shrunken it, paved/cobble stoned a few more roads, and given the buildings a little more personality. Should've let Palmo make the town as quirky as he wanted to. I get that it's the whole "sleepy backwater town". But there's not a whole lot of life in it. It doesn't fit the characters. I do really love the characters. I'm having a hard time deciding who to romance. I'm enjoying the banter and conversations just as much as I felt in RF4. Simone seems a little odd to me as being the mayor AND town doctor. Also I'm sad to see Livia never leave her office. But these are just personal preferences. I hope they can come out with an RF6 that can fix these things. If they can make Rune Factory games on older consoles that don't lag or have these issues, I don't see why it would be a problem now. I don't think fans of these games are asking for something on the scale of BotW, they want a beautiful and well written game with characters they can fall in love with, both romantically and platonically. I think they did a lot good with this game and I'm excited to see where the rest of this story goes, but so help me I will cry if the game crashes again. I know it will, so I'm prepping for the tears. I'm chalking this one up to games from the 2020s that could've been so much better had they actually worked properly. ... show more
