@@Dragon-ex9tq That pay to play chinese knock off? On mobile? no thanks. Real gamers play on console, not on such disgrace to gaming platform history. I would still understand if you stated Stardew Valley, but Harvest Town is just a complete mess.
They need to remaster a wonderful life on the switch, the game was amazing just needs a few additions and fixes and maybe a bigger map to explore what a game though
Why old game so memorable for us? Because thats how our brain works, feel the first time handling the farm.. heard a repetitive bgm, it feels Nostalgic!!
Harvest Moon is a *Game Title* that Natsume copyrighted when they brought *Bokujo Monogatari* (Farm Story/Legend/Tale) over to the western market. The creator was always Marvelous, and when they got their own localizing firm (XSeed), they decided to not longer use Natsume to bring the games to the western market. But since Natsume has the right to the name Harvest Moon, the games were now released under the label of Story of Seasons, and Natsume made their *own* farming simulator game, still using the Harvest Moon name. Basically, this is a long way of saying that this video is just plain wrong.
The visuals aged poorly, but BTN left the biggest footprint. The villagers are iconic, the music can't be topped. It hit the right balance of witty, melancholy, and challenging.
A lot of people may attack me on this but my favorite harvest moon game was harvest moon DS and DS cute. It was the one I grew up playing and I still love it. But Friends of Mineral town is also great
Grape Berry Yep, and if we compare the new games (by Rising Star) to the old ones (by Marvelous), we clearly see the difference. Story of Seasons is just the new "old Harvest Moon" (I don't know if I'm understandable xD)
its not the new and official Harvest Moon, its the originally created game, some people stole the name and made it their own, Story of Seasons it the original makes of the game and changed it to be theirs again.....sometimes i see a Harvest Moon game and buy it and hate my life cause the game sucks
ah no... true fans would have played the original and would say "the snes version is best." The rest are are just copies of the original with better graphics... when it comes down to "the best" tho, nothing compares to experiencing a fresh new game where you have no idea what to expect like what "true fans" experienced
Nothing will ever beat A Wonderful Life and Another Wonderful Life. Those two are the best, hands down. I am enjoying Story of Seasons and Harvest Moon Light of Hope though.
@@imtiredofyouwhosaysfirst215 Hi! I tried DS already. I find it hard to play because I used my android phone to play the game. It was great. New characters and mysteries to solve. :) I have been playing HMMFMT and HMFMT for 11 years now. Nothing could beat the game I first played.
@@mikmikmak7564 Yeah, I still think HMFOT & MFOMT are the best so far and I'm also playing DS on an emulator. It's kind of annoying when you accidentally touched the bottom screen's buttons but I'm still giving it a try 😂
What's great with HM:DS is the possibility to let your dog kill the mayor or poison the whole village by putting a poisoned mushroom in the big soup from the Fall festival
It's sad that the best graphics for the series were in 2006 and 2008 for Tree of Tranquility and Animal Parade. And that the graphics have only regressed since.
agreed. i played BTN and AWLSE and one of the reasons was because i upgraded to PS2 back then. i read the wiki about how there are actually a total of 8 bachelorettes in FoMT, an older one, compared to 5 in BTN, the newer one. the gameplay & features went back & forth so much it's actually easier to judge by the graphics. and that is kinda sad indeed.
It's honestly insane, especially when comparing them one after another like this. I'd argue my favorite art/style/game mechanics wise would have to be rune factory 4, but definitely everything else has just been absolutely subpar. Especially in the direct harvest moon (story of seasons?) line. (This is also coming from someone who has only ever played RF4, so take what I say with a grain of salt lol)
Kiran TheWitch compared to what tho? You can’t compare DS to Wii games...and after the “split” the new titles with “harvest moon” aren’t the legit thing
@@OhMisfit both story of seasons games are pretty good i'd say. If the next direct entry had a console (switch) release I could see the graphics being good again
Tree of Tranquility and Animal Parade for me will always be where it’s at. Great story. Probably the best characters and marriage candidates from the whole series (is there a bad boy/girl? I think not! I have such trouble marrying 😂) Not to forget the animals! I’m a big rancher focus, so AP was definitely something I enjoyed. Plus it’s just so beautiful. And more challenging than Stardew Valley 😶
Animal parade is my all time favorite. I fell in love with it as a kid and is still one of my all time favorites. Only thing I've found that's come close to it is My Time at Portia. You should give it a try!
Singing_ Flower I married the pink haired girly dude because I thought the kids were the cutest Also he was easiest to date because i liked mining the best lol
A Wonderful Life was also on Gamecube!!! I had it and I LOVED it as a kid. Along with the original animal crossing on GameCube, that shit took up half my friggin childhood omg
I played these as an adult. I still have my old systems and games and I still play these games often. Animal Crossing for GameCube is still my favorite of all of them.
My childhood damn I'ma get the hm:awl special edition on PS4 and I'ma getting animal crossing on switch shit I want these hm:awl to have a remake it's been years 😭😭😭😭😭😭
PSA:story of seasons is made by the original creators of harvest moon. Any new games they're making is under the story of seasons title. They switched western distributors but natsume still owns the harvest moon name so it cashes in on it but any new harvest moon game is not actually made by the company that made harvest moon (and frankly they actually suck, so if you're looking for harvest moon games that are recently made, look for story of seasons instead.) ANY HARVEST MOON GAME MADE RECENTLY ISNT BY THE ORIGINAL CREATORS!! THE SERIES NOW GOES UNDER STORY OF SEASONS. THE RECENT GAMES WITH THE HARVEST MOON TITLE ARE NOT VERY GOOD BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT MADE BY THE ORIGINAL CREATORS. DO NOT BUY THEM IF YOU WANT A REAL HARVEST MOON GAME. STORY OF SEASONS IS NOW HARVEST MOON.
@@s.bregnest2857 I'm honestly not sure. It definitely looks like it and since I've heard positive things about it I'd say its safe to assume its not natsume considering all the harvest moon games released after the switch under the harvest moon trademark rather than story of seasons have been deemed pretty awful..the creator of the original harvest moon if I'm correct is marvelous entertainment and their new distributor is Xseed if I'm not wrong
I remember about playing this with my mom back in the days in back to nature.. the mayor was always angry because sometimes we missed the festivals lolol
Tale of two towns is my absolute favourite!! It’s absolutely beautiful and there’s so much to do. It’s so relaxing and I love the story too, it’s so enjoyable.
Yeeeeeeees omg it's so good to see more people who gives some love to that game 💜 It's such a cute and gourgeous game, there's a lot of festivals for each town and they are all amazing The characters' pictures are just ADORABLE And it has some of the best bachelors/bachelorettes. Specially Cam, I don't remember having any other bachelor in any of the other games that is as kind, gentle and sensible as him
i thought im the only one. The cooking festival hooked me the most. The farms are also cool designed, not exactly efficient, but aesthetically pleasing.
I first played the PSP one on my cousins PSP, and I don't understand the series at all XD Several years later when I am older, I decided to play HM:FOMT and fell in love, I'm currently playing the TOTT version and now it's my all time favorite HM game along with RF3
This series underwent a lot of experimentation, adding and removing aspects of the game all the time, as well as changing the art style between 2D and 3D back and forth. Oddly enough, the original SNES Harvest Moon was one of the most well balanced and had gotten most of the key concepts right.
You're right. And for some reason I had the memory of SNES HM being way more "brown" than it was. I remember that I never liked the graphics as a kid. I preferred playing MFoMT.
My favorite : Back To Nature Hero of Leaf Valley Animal Parade The Tale of Two Town (DS) but I really like HM Grand Bazaar from the way to sell the crops and other at the bazaar
Omg finally someone else who also likes The Tale of Two Towns It's my favorite one for sure, I find the towns and the characters charming, the music is good, you can raise cats and dogs to help take care of your animals and many other things I really don't get why it seems to be so forgotten among the other harvest moon games. At least I don't see people hating on it so I guess that's good? It's still my favorite though Grand Bazaar is another one that I used to play a lot, I still like it but it's not my absolute favorite And the first one I played is More Friends of Mineral Town, which is JUST ADORABLE But it doesn't have the best barchelor of the franchise (which, in my opinion, is Cam) so it's also not my favorite, even though I really like it
I inherited an old game boy advanced from my grandpa (Rest in peace) and while in school everyone else would be playing on a Ds or something like that while I'd be over playing friends of mineral town and enjoying every second of it. Those were the Times.
Watching footage of Magical Melody just brought back some happy memories of playing that game with my sister wow I totally forgot about those times. Glad I watched this :)
Friends Of Mineral Town and DS were my favorite, with DS looking the best for my preferred style. The classic 2D sprite model with sharp, beautiful character art when interacting with the townsfolk... I honestly can't hang with anything after Sunshine Island. I miss the old Harvest Moon.
Tree of tranquility and Animal Parade are my absolute favourites, but i just wish they would've gotten a remake. they're so good, just need a bit more work or a mixture of elements from eachother. (preferably on a a mobile system like a ds or switch)
I felt like the series was going in such a good direction when AP came out. Definitely was the height for me, but they just let me down after that 😭 Such a beautiful game and style and then they just forgot about it I guess
There are legit SO many things i want to add to that game (i.e swimming, jumping, bigger family, more interesting cutscenes, maybe your own boat (obviously a small one), the ability to stay overnight at sundae inn after completing the tutorial, backstory to the main character, a way to make that minecart by ganache mine work, etc.) yeah there’s more where that came from. Basically i want them to just copy the whole game’s code, and add newer features to it.
First off: why is there My time at Portia on the thumbnail? Second off: Harvest Moon continued as Story of Seasons. Bokujō Monogatari is the original title. The title got changed for us to Harvest Moon. And later on to Story of Seasoms because it isnt published by Natsume anymore but they do own the name. So basicly the new 'Harvest Moon' games by Natsume has like nothing to do with Bokujō Monogatari anymore. Thats Story of Seasons now.
Save the Homeland wasn't the best, but it did hold some charm, and it's 4th of my list of favorites of the Franchise. For me my favs being #1 Harvest Moon 64, #2 Harvest Moon BTN, #3 Harvest Moon Hero of Leaf Valley #4 Harvest Moon Save the Homeland. Even though Hero of Leaf Valley was a "Remake" of save the homeland it's definitely a vast improvement, more so than Friends of Mineral Town when compared to Back to Nature. So much so I think it deserves being viewed as a stand alone rather than a remake.
Why include Light of Hope and The Lost Valley? Despite the titles, those games were not even made by the original developers of "Harvest Moon". Also, I think including those two in this list would not count as "evolution" but "devolution" instead.
@@sonicthehedge No they're not. They weren't even published by Marvelous. All the original games were. Bokujō Monogatari is what the franchise is really called. And those recent "Harvest Moon" (Light of Hope, The Lost Valley, Skytree Village, Seeds of Memories) games are not a part of the "Bokujō Monogatari" franchise. After Harvest Moon: A New Beginning, all the newer Bokujō Monogatari games have been released as Story of Seasons in North America. And the newer "Harvest Moon" games are just there to rip off people who didnt know any better. Natsume should have announced the name change instead of riding on the success of Marvelous' Bokujō Monogatari games to sell their games. This would have saved everyone from all the confusion and saved everyone some time and money. To those who still dont know the full story behind this name change, please watch "How Harvest Moon Became Story of Seasons" by Gammalad on RUclips.
Knight And SpaceShip They're not part of the same franchise, they share the same title and that is it. Natsume translated and localized the original Bokujou Monogatari games (which is the franchise) and rebranded it as "Harvest Moon", so they owned the rights to the brand "Harvest Moon", but not the franchise Bokujou Monogatari. Afterwards, newer Bokujou Monogatari games went with a different company to bring it to the west, but Natsume owned the title "Harvest Moon" so they had to rename it to Story of Seasons. Natsume, realizing that they weren't getting Harvest Moon games anymore, decided to half-ass their own title and pass it off as the same thing when it isn't at all.

Harvest Moon Back to Nature!!! ❤❤❤ They don't even need to add or update anything, just make it available to the new consoles I really really really want it back 😭
Ah, I remember starting of with Tree of Tranquility. I was attracted to the anime cover of the game and had no idea what the heck to do as I skipped the dialogue of the tutorial. It was a few years later that I picked it up again and understood how to ship things and how to befriend people. I was hooked from that point on. I then got A New Beginning, which I hated. I didn't like the huge intro and the one sided bachelors. (Later found out I like women and that was my issue. I was used to the dudes in ToT which looked like girls) I basically stopped playing after the disappointment I got after marrying Neil. And then I got Magical Melody. Best. Game. Ever. I spent countless hours farming alongside my dog named Squidge and my Pig named Sid. I got every music note possible and had a good life in the game. I've always wanted animal parade due to it's beautiful soundtrack, but with limited time and funds, I've never gotten around to buying it. Thank you for this video, it has stirred a lot of emotions and memories of simpler days.
animal parade is beautiful!!! my all time favorite in the series tbh... the game has such a beautiful setting with cute goals!!! the characters are amazing youll love them.... there is a bachelor named julius who you might like.. i definitely suggest the game, maybe check used on amazon or ebay/mercari!!
Sumpah demi apapun setiap gw denger lagu Harvest moon BTN pasti gua selalu ingat kejaman dlu pas gua main sama temen gua dirental dan gua pengen nangis kalo denger lagu ini ada yang sama ga kaya gua
Ahay Gaming semangat bang upload videonya yah. bikin game yang lain dari awal sampe sekarang btw kalo Harvest moon nya ada di Android kasih linknya donk
I'd have to say that my favorite Harvest Moon games were: Tree of Tranquilty and DS. Each one had so little flaws. The first Harvest Moon game I played was the original Harvest Moon. My brother and I bought it off the Wii eShop. That game caused me to become obsessed with the Harvest Moon franchise! :)
FYI guys, In Harvest Moon BTN PS1, you can use some mini stone to making some fence and avoid stray dogs effectively than only some lumber，thank me later
I grow up playing BTN and MFOMT. Also several titles from ps2, nds and all from 3ds. Dont understand why so many fanatic fans of BTN/FOMT. I personally think Trio of Towns is currently the best one. In term of story, Innocent Life wins though. The bad ending is just so dark and the good ending broke my heart
I guess we're the odd ones out because this was my favorite one that I've played and I only played three versions but the one I always came back to was Magical Melody.
@@PBYvonne97 I have great memories of playing it for hours during home school and my mom would even sit and watch me play it lol. In my opinion it's the perfect HM game. I'd love a remake of it on switch.
I liked Twin Villages! Definitely had some mechanics that I wish it didn't have (either expansion or tunnel quest once a month), but it was really fun. Loved the clothes it had! And Rune Factory is fun. I think my favorite is Oceans/Tides of Destiny. Rune Factory 4 was really fun, and definitely had good parts, and did make a nice circle... but I don't like the plot's pacing, I don't like how they mostly reuse previous RF games' tracks (I love them, don't get me wrong, but it's disappointing), and I absolutely HATED the RNG-factor when it comes to events.
I have tales of two towns, I liked it, thought it was ok, but it wasn't one of my favorites, I loved the GBA harvest moon and many others over it, but it was still unique and special in its way xD
The game in the thumb nail is not harvest moon. That's "My Time at Portia." You either didn't care enough to know that simple peice of info or its Clickbait.
If you watch even just 7 minutes into the video the creator has put down wrong console for harvest moon boy and girl which is the psp and not the ds, along with the footage for rune factory 1 being from rune factory 2.
So I enjoy the video but, Harvest Moon A Wonderful Life, and Another Wonderful Life were originally for game cube :) dont forget next time. BTW they are the best other than n64s original.
I noticed that too, it even shows up the game cube's buttons on the screen 🤣 I have no idea why the person who made the video showed it as if it was for ps2 Even though I remember having a version for ps2 of this game, but still...
Cant find a single comment talking about sunshine islands... its such a fun game. But harvest moon ds cute was just iconic. Ive unfortunately have yet to play any others.
I think the later versions of harvest moon ruined my childhood a lot. Nasume should just make the classic harvest moon available in Digital HD TV but do not change anything else. Would be nice if I could play Back to nature in a widescreen TV instead of square.
Ohmigosh my heart, i didnt know there were so much iterations of harvest moon with monsters and weird narration 🤣 this is sooo nostalgic! Back to nature's familiarity still gives me most feels here!

PSA:story of seasons is made by the original creators of harvest moon. Any new games they're making is under the story of seasons title. They switched western distributors but natsume still owns the harvest moon name so it cashes in on it but any new harvest moon game is not actually made by the company that made harvest moon (and frankly they actually suck, so if you're looking for harvest moon games that are recently made, look for story of seasons instead.) ANY HARVEST MOON GAME MADE RECENTLY ISNT BY THE ORIGINAL CREATORS!! THE SERIES NOW GOES UNDER STORY OF SEASONS.

It definitely looks like it and since I've heard positive things about it I'd say its safe to assume its not natsume considering all the harvest moon games released after the switch under the harvest moon trademark rather than story of seasons have been deemed pretty awful..the creator of the original harvest moon if I'm correct is marvelous entertainment and their new distributor is Xseed if I'm not wrong
Well that certainly explains Light of Hope lmao
No story of seasons trio of towns? Should have been right in front of harvest Moon light of hope
I remember about playing this with my mom back in the days in back to nature.. the mayor was always angry because sometimes we missed the festivals lolol
The nostalgia hits me hard just by watching :'(
Friends of Mineral Town ❤️
A Wonderful Life ❤️
Rune Factory ❤️
Tale of two towns is my absolute favourite!! It’s absolutely beautiful and there’s so much to do. It’s so relaxing and I love the story too, it’s so enjoyable.
Yeah and i love the graphic
Yeeeeeeees omg it's so good to see more people who gives some love to that game 💜
It's such a cute and gourgeous game, there's a lot of festivals for each town and they are all amazing
The characters' pictures are just ADORABLE
And it has some of the best bachelors/bachelorettes. Specially Cam, I don't remember having any other bachelor in any of the other games that is as kind, gentle and sensible as him
i thought im the only one. The cooking festival hooked me the most. The farms are also cool designed, not exactly efficient, but aesthetically pleasing.
I first played the PSP one on my cousins PSP, and I don't understand the series at all XD
Several years later when I am older, I decided to play HM:FOMT and fell in love, I'm currently playing the TOTT version and now it's my all time favorite HM game along with RF3
This series underwent a lot of experimentation, adding and removing aspects of the game all the time, as well as changing the art style between 2D and 3D back and forth. Oddly enough, the original SNES Harvest Moon was one of the most well balanced and had gotten most of the key concepts right.
You're right.
And for some reason I had the memory of SNES HM being way more "brown" than it was. I remember that I never liked the graphics as a kid. I preferred playing MFoMT.
I legit cried when i watched the intro. Reminds me so much of my childhood
This series will forever hold a special place in my heart. I've spent days invested in these games, genuinely caring about the characters and story.
My favorite :
Back To Nature
Hero of Leaf Valley
Animal Parade
The Tale of Two Town (DS)
but I really like HM Grand Bazaar from the way to sell the crops and other at the bazaar
back to nature, harvest town
FoMT for life
Agree. Grand Bazaar might not be the best but it's pretty good
Omg finally someone else who also likes The Tale of Two Towns
It's my favorite one for sure, I find the towns and the characters charming, the music is good, you can raise cats and dogs to help take care of your animals and many other things
I really don't get why it seems to be so forgotten among the other harvest moon games. At least I don't see people hating on it so I guess that's good? It's still my favorite though
Grand Bazaar is another one that I used to play a lot, I still like it but it's not my absolute favorite
And the first one I played is More Friends of Mineral Town, which is JUST ADORABLE
But it doesn't have the best barchelor of the franchise (which, in my opinion, is Cam) so it's also not my favorite, even though I really like it
Back in my day i play *Save the Homeland* and *A Wonderful Life*
SFC its long time and every ppl who play HM will know whats the true happiness
A Wonderful life Is the best game for ps2
Hey, same here!
SFC for me i played back to nature, and more friends of mineral town. That’s my favorite
Save the Homeland was ok, A Wonderful Life on PS2 is garbage, Back to Nature is the best hands down, it got remade like 6 times
A Wonderful Life will always be the best Harvest Moon game in my opinion
This is the best, there's no other!!
it's slow and choppy, it's takes 2 minutes to plant and water a single seed
I have to agree with this. There’s so much more than the other versions. Your kids / villagers will grow old and yourself, too!
True
Yep
I inherited an old game boy advanced from my grandpa (Rest in peace) and while in school everyone else would be playing on a Ds or something like that while I'd be over playing friends of mineral town and enjoying every second of it.
Those were the Times.
I'm sorry :(
Watching footage of Magical Melody just brought back some happy memories of playing that game with my sister wow I totally forgot about those times. Glad I watched this :)
Harvest Moon Back to Nature, a Treasure game for ps1 really love this game,, just hearing the BGM makes me cry for the nostalgic
Friends Of Mineral Town and DS were my favorite, with DS looking the best for my preferred style. The classic 2D sprite model with sharp, beautiful character art when interacting with the townsfolk... I honestly can't hang with anything after Sunshine Island. I miss the old Harvest Moon.
Dude HM:DS is something I’ll never forget I started playing when I was 5 my dad thought me
Back to nature its my favorite ❤
Harvest moon 64 is the best
Mantap bro
1.Harvest Moon: More friends of mineral town 💕
2. Harvest Moon Friends of mineral town 💞
Is the bomb for me ❤❤❤
Tree of tranquility and Animal Parade are my absolute favourites, but i just wish they would've gotten a remake.
they're so good, just need a bit more work or a mixture of elements from eachother.
(preferably on a a mobile system like a ds or switch)
Tree of tranquillity feels like a worse version of Ap (Still fun)
Ap will always be my favourite
I felt like the series was going in such a good direction when AP came out. Definitely was the height for me, but they just let me down after that 😭
Such a beautiful game and style and then they just forgot about it I guess
There are legit SO many things i want to add to that game (i.e swimming, jumping, bigger family, more interesting cutscenes, maybe your own boat (obviously a small one), the ability to stay overnight at sundae inn after completing the tutorial, backstory to the main character, a way to make that minecart by ganache mine work, etc.) yeah there’s more where that came from. Basically i want them to just copy the whole game’s code, and add newer features to it.
Agreed
i played 1996 Harvest Moon snes version, 1999 Harvest Moon : Back to nature for ps1 and 2003 Harvest Moon : A wonderful life for ps2
Have you played harvest moon 64 its the best
First off: why is there My time at Portia on the thumbnail?
Second off: Harvest Moon continued as Story of Seasons. Bokujō Monogatari is the original title. The title got changed for us to Harvest Moon. And later on to Story of Seasoms because it isnt published by Natsume anymore but they do own the name. So basicly the new 'Harvest Moon' games by Natsume has like nothing to do with Bokujō Monogatari anymore. Thats Story of Seasons now.
Personally, the best out of the harvest moon games for me will always be tale of two towns.
Yasssssss
so good to reminisce most of the harvest moon games I played before.. I almost cry.. lol 😆😆
GBA is the best one.
3D style just doesn't fit harvest moon.
For me it does. I prefer a wonderful life, another wonderful life and saving the homeland. But the More Friends in Minerval Town was alright.
I think they just do a stupid job with the models for the most part. I love another wonderful life for it's animal models tho they looked so nice
Save The Homeland was the best Harvest Moom game 😭 I miss this 😭😭
Gisellia Veronica I agree,save the homeland and wonderful life is my childhood but save the homeland is the best,the music really feels 👌👌😭😭
Save the Homeland wasn't the best, but it did hold some charm, and it's 4th of my list of favorites of the Franchise. For me my favs being #1 Harvest Moon 64, #2 Harvest Moon BTN, #3 Harvest Moon Hero of Leaf Valley #4 Harvest Moon Save the Homeland. Even though Hero of Leaf Valley was a "Remake" of save the homeland it's definitely a vast improvement, more so than Friends of Mineral Town when compared to Back to Nature. So much so I think it deserves being viewed as a stand alone rather than a remake.
I have the original disk
Yes i too
I love save the homeland but not my best
Why include Light of Hope and The Lost Valley? Despite the titles, those games were not even made by the original developers of "Harvest Moon". Also, I think including those two in this list would not count as "evolution" but "devolution" instead.
Xanina
but it's still "part" of the Harvest moon franchise.
Not all franchise are made by the same developer.
I know what you mean but still
No they're not. Do not mix up those garbage with real harvest moon games.
@@sonicthehedge
No they're not. They weren't even published by Marvelous. All the original games were. Bokujō Monogatari is what the franchise is really called. And those recent "Harvest Moon" (Light of Hope, The Lost Valley, Skytree Village, Seeds of Memories) games are not a part of the "Bokujō Monogatari" franchise.
After Harvest Moon: A New Beginning, all the newer Bokujō Monogatari games have been released as Story of Seasons in North America. And the newer "Harvest Moon" games are just there to rip off people who didnt know any better. Natsume should have announced the name change instead of riding on the success of Marvelous' Bokujō Monogatari games to sell their games. This would have saved everyone from all the confusion and saved everyone some time and money.
To those who still dont know the full story behind this name change, please watch "How Harvest Moon Became Story of Seasons" by Gammalad on RUclips.
Knight And SpaceShip They're not part of the same franchise, they share the same title and that is it. Natsume translated and localized the original Bokujou Monogatari games (which is the franchise) and rebranded it as "Harvest Moon", so they owned the rights to the brand "Harvest Moon", but not the franchise Bokujou Monogatari. Afterwards, newer Bokujou Monogatari games went with a different company to bring it to the west, but Natsume owned the title "Harvest Moon" so they had to rename it to Story of Seasons. Natsume, realizing that they weren't getting Harvest Moon games anymore, decided to half-ass their own title and pass it off as the same thing when it isn't at all.
while i agree that you should not mix both series i prefer lost valley over story of season (both bad but one less than the other for me).
I don’t care how the 2020 version going , I’ll still play Friends Of Mineral Town
Me too(. ❛ ᴗ ❛.)
stardew valley : join the chat
It actually looks and plays very well from the livestreams I watched
@@shierubea it's great if you don't mind the chibified character.
It's a perfect remake.
Yeah same here
I remember back on Friends of mineral town I raised every girls affection and didn't marry any of them because I didn't know how to
Same but on Magical Melody
Cause fomt need you to have all their heart event first before marries them
@@juliapalxminx magical melody is easy, when you have big bed and i think 8 heart candidate, mayor will come to your house and you'll need to climb mountain
Harvest moon back to nature is the best. PERIODDDD.
I remembered as a kid playing Harvest Moon A Wonderful Life
I grow up with harvest moon. Btw the real harvest moon is now called story of season.
were did you get that video of rune factory 7:06 ive never seen that and i beat the og rune factory for ds 2 times now so is that like beta or is it from a diffrent game
2003 Harvest moon: a wonderful life - MY CHILDHOOD
Same, omg that menu sound is 10/10
Harvest Moon: Tree of tranquility, Harvest Moon: Animal Parade (my favourite) and Harvest Moon: Magical Melody are the best ones for me
Markis BR yeah magical melody is also my favorite, but it seems to be left in the dust in others opinions
I finally found someone who likes every harvest moon i like , best harvest moons for me.
Harvest Moon Magical Melody is my favorite. Oh memories...
My first time is Harvest Moon save home land
And second is innocent
Yess its was amazing :c wish i could get a pc and grab a gamecube emulator to play it
That tune in the intro was so nostalgic i can't even
Despite all its flaws and bugs, HMDS will always be my favourite
Harvest moon 64 was cute af! The music, graphics and interacting with town was just Kawaii
Innocent life has a lot of feels. Unique game story.
- my favorite by far.
I know right
Yes, my favorit one
Harvest Moon Back to Nature!!! ❤❤❤
They don't even need to add or update anything, just make it available to the new consoles
I really really really want it back 😭
I totally agree! I'm playing it currently, in my Harvest Moon cycle, on my PSP. LOVE that game!
Rune factory 3 is the best series from Harvest moon.
I'm still play it 'till this time.
Back to Nature and 64 have such special places in my heart. Can't wait for the FoMT remake!!!
They made the best games on GBA. Loved playing Harvest Moon and Golden Sun.
Back to Nature and FoMT will always be the best harvest moon games. Fight me.
Ah, I remember starting of with Tree of Tranquility. I was attracted to the anime cover of the game and had no idea what the heck to do as I skipped the dialogue of the tutorial. It was a few years later that I picked it up again and understood how to ship things and how to befriend people. I was hooked from that point on.
I then got A New Beginning, which I hated. I didn't like the huge intro and the one sided bachelors. (Later found out I like women and that was my issue. I was used to the dudes in ToT which looked like girls) I basically stopped playing after the disappointment I got after marrying Neil.
And then I got Magical Melody. Best. Game. Ever. I spent countless hours farming alongside my dog named Squidge and my Pig named Sid. I got every music note possible and had a good life in the game.
I've always wanted animal parade due to it's beautiful soundtrack, but with limited time and funds, I've never gotten around to buying it.
Thank you for this video, it has stirred a lot of emotions and memories of simpler days.
animal parade is beautiful!!! my all time favorite in the series tbh... the game has such a beautiful setting with cute goals!!! the characters are amazing youll love them.... there is a bachelor named julius who you might like.. i definitely suggest the game, maybe check used on amazon or ebay/mercari!!
Sumpah demi apapun setiap gw denger lagu Harvest moon BTN pasti gua selalu ingat kejaman dlu pas gua main sama temen gua dirental dan gua pengen nangis kalo denger lagu ini ada yang sama ga kaya gua
Rakha ਚਕਦਠ YT ciee nostalgia yah kakak...
Rakha ਚਕਦਠ YT sama boy, gua jdi keinget jaman kecil suka mainin HMBTN
Ahay Gaming iya nih wkwk
Ahay Gaming semangat bang upload videonya yah. bikin game yang lain dari awal sampe sekarang btw kalo Harvest moon nya ada di Android kasih linknya donk
@@rakhaputradwiyandi535 pake emulator epsxe, main di pc atau android bisa hmbtn nya
I'd have to say that my favorite Harvest Moon games were: Tree of Tranquilty and DS. Each one had so little flaws. The first Harvest Moon game I played was the original Harvest Moon. My brother and I bought it off the Wii eShop. That game caused me to become obsessed with the Harvest Moon franchise! :)
FYI guys, In Harvest Moon BTN PS1, you can use some mini stone to making some fence and avoid stray dogs effectively than only some lumber，thank me later
A WONDERFUL LIFE!! IT DEFINITELY MADE MY LIFE WONDERFUL AS A CHILD!
AWL was available on GameCube as well. You missed that.
Oh, didn't catch that. Thanks. The PS2 version he said it was is actually the Special addition one. Came out later than GameCube version. Good catch.
I remember laughing at the villagers when they start calling me greedy witch because of that golden wood
I still play a wonderful life on the game cube 😂
Heck yeah
I grow up playing BTN and MFOMT. Also several titles from ps2, nds and all from 3ds. Dont understand why so many fanatic fans of BTN/FOMT. I personally think Trio of Towns is currently the best one.
In term of story, Innocent Life wins though. The bad ending is just so dark and the good ending broke my heart
Magical Melody was amazing. Many great memories with that one. FoMT was great as well.
You are the first person to say that, the music on that game put me to sleep in front of the Tv, amen
I guess we're the odd ones out because this was my favorite one that I've played and I only played three versions but the one I always came back to was Magical Melody.
@@PBYvonne97 I have great memories of playing it for hours during home school and my mom would even sit and watch me play it lol. In my opinion it's the perfect HM game. I'd love a remake of it on switch.
Unpopular opinion: I loved tale of two towns
Popular opinion: I also adore the rune factory series.
Tales of Two Towns is one of my favorites. Who hates it? It's great!
I liked Twin Villages! Definitely had some mechanics that I wish it didn't have (either expansion or tunnel quest once a month), but it was really fun. Loved the clothes it had!
And Rune Factory is fun. I think my favorite is Oceans/Tides of Destiny. Rune Factory 4 was really fun, and definitely had good parts, and did make a nice circle... but I don't like the plot's pacing, I don't like how they mostly reuse previous RF games' tracks (I love them, don't get me wrong, but it's disappointing), and I absolutely HATED the RNG-factor when it comes to events.
I have tales of two towns, I liked it, thought it was ok, but it wasn't one of my favorites, I loved the GBA harvest moon and many others over it, but it was still unique and special in its way xD
I have and still will occasionally play Tale of two towns
I love Rune Factory
The game in the thumb nail is not harvest moon. That's "My Time at Portia." You either didn't care enough to know that simple peice of info or its Clickbait.
If you watch even just 7 minutes into the video the creator has put down wrong console for harvest moon boy and girl which is the psp and not the ds, along with the footage for rune factory 1 being from rune factory 2.
So I enjoy the video but, Harvest Moon A Wonderful Life, and Another Wonderful Life were originally for game cube :) dont forget next time. BTW they are the best other than n64s original.
I noticed that too, it even shows up the game cube's buttons on the screen 🤣 I have no idea why the person who made the video showed it as if it was for ps2
Even though I remember having a version for ps2 of this game, but still...
i like how you included the Rune Factory series.
Ikr it's not really "harvest moon" it's it's own series
Cant find a single comment talking about sunshine islands... its such a fun game. But harvest moon ds cute was just iconic. Ive unfortunately have yet to play any others.
A new beginning tho 😳 I love it I've never played the others tho lol
The footage for Rune Factory 1 is actually from Rune Factory 2
My favorites games are:
Harvest moon snes
Harvest moon 64
Harvest moon Back To Nature PS1
The OG
K I am not a big fan of harvest moon but I play Friends of mineral town,and it's GREAT.
Top 3 in order
1. Another wonderful life
2. Animal parade
3. Tree of tranquility
Fight me
Innocent Life have epic story,
Sad it's not too popular
Robot tried becoming homan
Dr. Hope i miss u :')
All over the HM series
*Back to Nature are the Most true Harvestmoon*
I think the later versions of harvest moon ruined my childhood a lot. Nasume should just make the classic harvest moon available in Digital HD TV but do not change anything else. Would be nice if I could play Back to nature in a widescreen TV instead of square.
Apparent unpopular opinion: MAGICAL MELODY WAS THE BEST. ❤️ 😤
Agreed
YESSS I was looking for this comment lol
My favorite one. I want to get another gamecube, buy the game again and this time play from beginning to end. I never beat the game. Ahh the memories
Since people are talking about their favorite game, I'll say my favorite cast. Mineral Towns' townspeople are iconic and very memorable for me
Ohmigosh my heart, i didnt know there were so much iterations of harvest moon with monsters and weird narration 🤣 this is sooo nostalgic! Back to nature's familiarity still gives me most feels here!
