Update: The day 1 patch adds the ability to color chests!
Just bought the game and played for about 2 hours. I love it! Especially happy there's no combat. I find the gameplay immersive and unique.
Excellent review digging in-depth into everything one must know about Roots of Pacha! Very excited to see what the devs plan next🐣
Roots of Pacha sounds really good. I've been looking forward to this for years, and based on what you've described it sounds like I won't be disappointed. I'll have to check it out myself when I can.
Also I like the way you pull together all of the pros and cons of a game at the end of your videos, it's a good reminder of exactly what was what, I appreciate that because I can be really forgetful 😅
Yeah you should give a try to Stardew valley
Another fantastic and comprehensive review, thanks, Josh! I have so many games I want to play at the moment but definitely plan on getting this one in the future.
I'll buy it for sure. This looks so good and the features overwhelmed me. I wasn't expecting so much content! :)
Can't wait to get it tomorrow. Enjoyed all your videos about this game . thank you for that review!
I'm so excited for this tomorrow, have really been looking forward to it!
i cant wait to try it i love the concept i been following it from the beginning so thank you for this review it makes me excited all over again
I was on the fence about buying this game, but you’ve convinced me! I’m excited to try it out. :)
So from what I see on the faq on the discord channel, they'll slowly implement stretch goals after 1.0 so i'm looking forward to the future updates as well of the game.
Cant wait for tomorrow! 😊 Game looks really fun despite some flaws u mentioned in video but doesnt seem like a dealbreaker lol might have to look up video for that light puzzle cuz that def looks frustrating lol
The animal breeding sounds nice. It most farm games it's underdeveloped
Glad i stumbled across your channel love farming games. keep up the great videos, currently playing Homestead Arcana which i noticed you havent covered yet.
Thanks! This review occupied most of my time in the last weeks, but I'm planning to cover Homestead Arcana very soon!
Thank you for the detailed video! Look so fun!
Thanks a lot for your video! ❤ I got lot of info that I needed ❤ wish u a nice day!
I've been looking forward to this game for a while. For some reason I was under the impression there would be dinosaurs in it so a bit bummed about that aspect. But I'm really really liking the game so far.
What an impeccable review. I love you Josh 😍
Im sooo buying it.. its going to be my birthday gift to myself.
Happy Birthday Sephina!! Hope you enjoy Roots of Pacha!
Looks very interesting. I’ll get it when it comes out on Switch and hopefully by then it will have further improvements on some of these things you mentioned. I don’t mind the multiplayer stuff cos I’ll probably not be using that.
I have backed the game and got two codes for Steam and Switch. I didn't play too much of the beta, but I'm still looking forward to it.
incredible for first version of game ( given SDV vibes with regard to how complete it already is on release ) . And we pretty much know there will be updates . Just imagine this in a few years with lots of updates
I had planned on getting sun haven and this game once I spotted a sale (missed the last one). I love anything with prehistoric theme (my school degree is in anthropology). Thank you for this video. Also I thought was funny one of the npcs disliked poop 😂
The art style reminded me with potion permit art style, which I looooove!
Looks like a great game. Thanks for the review 😀
Thanks for the review. Thinking about getting it for switch!
It sounds like it has some cool mechanics. I'll have to try it. :)
As a Kickstarter backer of it, I mostly watched the review to pick up gameplay tips since I will unlock my Steam key tomorrow. :)
Did you receive an email from them recently? I backed it as well and I haven't received any email about the release.
@@NicoleLara100 I think I clicked a link in an update that sent an email where I could access my Steam key on their site. At least I see that I got such an email.
Hi friends! Game looks great. Looking forward to playing it.
I CANT WAIT FOR TOMORROW!!
SAME!!!
I have played the demo of the game. Some aspects I did enjoy like fishing and exploring but travelling without a mount is time consuming. I 'm glad the villagers contribute to community instead of static NPCs who except you to do all of the work. So far MTAP has most NPC interaction. Not really sure if I can get the game, I have an eye out for Sunhaven which is currently on sales and new update dropped for Cult of the Lamb. Relics of the old faith.
I thought Sun Haven movement sucked. Everything feels slow and clunky. Never played it again after the first few hours.
you unlock the mount pretty early on about 2 hours in. as soon as u can attune animals and build trust after 3 days u can ride it
I love there is no combat. I like games that have combat, but it’s so refreshing to have a change.
I'm looking forward to this and sun haven when they come to switch.
can't wait until this is out on switch. looks like a blast!
This looks great! I hope it comes to switch at some point!
This was insightful, Though it really reminds me of Stardew Valley. Personally I am going to wait till it is on sale, but it dose look like it could be fun.
i hope they will release switch version of these it looks fun :) im kinda person who like playing comfy, relaxing, farming simulator when lying on bed or couch hehe
Will you do a hints and tips video or plan to play on switch when it releases on November 28th?
I just started the game today but I wish there were a combat system, which is kind of expected for a prehistoric era game
Same, I was disappointed to find out there's no combat for a game taking place during this time period.
do we know a rough price estimate?? looks so good
I really wish crytivo would release their games on console.
hello, one thing, can someone help me and tell me how to get a union crown since in the game they ask you for that to be able to marry the partner you have but the game does not explain well how to create or find the union crown
can you continue to play after end game? like in stardew the game technically ends after year 2.
Im considering Graveyard Keeper the Complete Edition on Switch. Not sure if thats the correct name. Whats your thought on the game. A or S tier? Thanks!!
I'll buy it but i'm not a fan of puzzles hopefully someone comes out with vids with answers for them. I honestly wish these games had better romance systems tho or atleast make them comparible to the old rune factory's
This game looks adorable!
Good video thank you
I think I’m gonna buy it today. I had high hopes for The Survivalists and it sucked! This seems like it’ll work though
how easy is it to mod? wanna do simple stuff like texture replacements
I can’t wait for this game to be available on Switch!❤❤
Oh no 😭 I think I fall in love with this game.....
this game looks promising!!
Absolutely.. i'll buy this game❤
It looks nice, but can I play it when I am REALLY bad at mini games?
Nice and organised review! For me a good story is one that can create tension through interactions with its worldbuilding, plot and characters. Even if the plot is weak, the characters can make up for it and vice versa. You mentioned that none of the characters really stood out to you but you still enjoyed the story. Is this due to a very good plot? I see that you mainly review farming sim games, so I am not sure if you have played titles like divinity original sin 2, the witcher 3 etc. How does the story of Roots of Pacha compare to that in your opinion?
Also you mentioned that you had hoped to see more intricate relationships. I also do not generally like the relationships in farming sim games because it mainly revolves around throwing gifts at an NPC until that NPC likes you (like in Stardew Valley)or you pick dialogue options that are clearly demarcated to increase/decrease relationship points. The NPC's personality, character and circumstance does not matter whatsoever. Additionally, what would you like to see if you befriend an NPC? If you had infinite resources, what would you add to the relationship system to make it more engaging? Are there any farming sim games with a more robust and interesting relationship mechanic?
Thanks for the comment! When I say the story is interesting, it's mostly in comparison with other farming games, where the story is often absent or very generic. They're doing something a bit different here but it's definitely not to the level of The Witcher 3.
With relationships, I like when there is some sort of reward in return. For example, in Story of Seasons A Wonderful Life, you get the strongest tools, as well as music records for befriending villagers. In some games, your spouse and/or children can help you with chores. In Rune Factory, your friends/family can fight alongside you. In older Harvest Moon games, other characters could get married to each other when you befriended them, so the town felt it was evolving. Overall, I think any kind of incentive that actually benefits your gameplay through items or getting help from friends makes things a lot more interesting.
@@JoshGamingGarden Thanks for the detailed reply! How does the story compare to Sun Haven? You mentioned that in in Story of Seasons A Wonderful Life, you get the strongest tools. Isn't the player then obligated to befriend NPCs for an increase in power, instead of genuine interest in the NPC's character/personality/circumstance, or can these strongest tools be obtained elsewhere?
How much will it cost? I can’t find pricing anywhere
steam: 22,99 for me (europe)
Honestly I thought taming a pet wolf or cat would be the method of obtaining meat items (Stereotypical cat bringing you it's catches as a gift lol) but apparently nope.
But can I wear the sabertooth tiger fur on my head like the art
Is there clothing in the game?
It's super expensive. I was thinking it would be 20 dollars or something but it's like 30 something. I will wait for a big sale to buy this, from all the videos and this review I have watched I absolutely love the game, can't wait to try it one day. Thank u for the indept review
Cool ♫♪♫♪
This looks so fun! Any word on a Switch release?
It is coming to Switch but they haven't announced a release date yet!
I've been looking forward to it, hope switch version comes soon. Most of these farming games I'm looking forward to just hope they get a switch version since that's all I've been playing.
@@JoshGamingGarden That's great to hear! Thanks!
@@lilyxavier-1990 Yeah, I only have a Switch, so the long, long wait for Hades II is going to be rough. I'm also super looking forward to Coral Island, Fae Farm, Moonstone Island, Sun Haven, Pixelshire, Witchbrook, Little Witch in the Woods, and of course, Haunted Chocolatier.
@@kurathchibicrystalkitty5146 I just got megaman battle network for switch and waiting for the remake of Harvest Moon a wonderful life for switch. Looking forward to all the games u just mentioned plus Roots of Pacha.
Didn't know about Moonstone Island tho. Lol so another 4 my list.
I LOVE Farming games like Harvest moon & stardew valley or No mans Sky. Wish there was more older games I could download now. So far I have to wait for release dates on most of these games since I'm not sure when they come out. Lol.
this game is very nice i highly recommend it
Future upgrade suggestions : Hunting dinosaur or Tribe War.
So do you die of old age? Can your children take over? Very Nice review!
I like it but don't like shallow romance and no combat. It's a good game but short.
Oh is it shallow? Might have to pass.. forming relationships is just as important to farm mechanics for me
Same here , and the no save anywhere is a big deal breaker for me. I hate the need to sleep save option. Was really excited but now not so much and for $32 CAD I'll pass for now.
sun haven multiplayer is its worst part
mixed race in stone age? wtf?
char portraits seem fugly
no game sound? just seems like a 20 min ad
so virtual villagers lmao
I haven't seen any hunting or anything realistic, 0/10 game if it doesn't depict that in a game about the stone age.
"One can not simply make pre historic stardew valley and call it a brand new game" 🤌
Then would it also be accurate to say that one cannot make a pixel art Harvest Moon game and call it a new game in regards to Stardew Valley? It's weird how people just want to gatekeep an entire genre
