    I have a few notes. For the Goddess wishes, weather does nothing. Wishing for girls is random, won't always be who likes you the most. And the power berry from wishing for strength requires full stamina AND zero fatigue. Offering milk works as well as the other items mentioned. "Festival rain" will not make animals sick/angry. An alternative cure for cow sickness is to hit them with a tool until they get mad. Drawback to this is they stay mad for 3 days, instead of going back to normal right away with the medicine, as well as additional player happiness loss. Grass can't be harvested in winter, but it is still there, unseen. You can leave cows and sheep outside on sunny winter days, if you have some fully grown grass. And the invisible eaten grass will regrow as well. Despite dialogue saying that they will, the harvest sprites do not feed your animals during typhoons or any other time. The Karen dog glitch doesn't work if your dog's affection is high. It's possible to have a fixed and broken music box at the same time. But make sure you give away the fixed one before you talk to Rick! If he attempts to fix your broken box when you already have a fixed one in your inventory, you'll break the cycle and not be able to fix boxes anymore. Okay, that's enough nitpicking (and I hope you don't mind). Still a great video and I hope it inspires more people to play my favorite game in the series!

      Makes sense why I didn't get any change after 10 minutes of Karen hating on my dogs intelligence. I loved him too quickly and it made the glitch impossible.

      @@SamVanDam oh ok that makes sense cuz I went back on and it worked with my new save. But I also had no idea I could dump something I harvest into the fountain and get a boost from the goddess so it's like a whole new game to me. I played when I was 6 I'm 30 now so it's exciting

    This'll be handy for those going into the game for the first time, or after a while.
    Also, should I add something? There's a climbable tree near the carpenter's place, which will help you get to the top of Moon Mtn. (It also helps for a certain event later.) Try heading up there around early Fall before the Harvest Festival. ;)

    This takes me back so much I love this game. I remember when I had no school I would play this game during vacations and mess around a bit, like when you talked about the free water I suddenly remember I’d just order and order it multiple times a day; or see what would happen if I slept all the way through all the years without getting progress on the farm and just go to festivals. Or romance a different girl next time. Or hoard so much gold and sell stuff from the mines and be rich lol

  • @mike1024.
    @mike1024. Год назад +6

    Great video! I didn't know you could bottle milk your cow repeatedly despite how much I've played this game, but I definitely took advantage of the free wine to decimate the competition on new years.
    I wanted to add a tip of my own that works due to quick saves: weather control! When you sleep, the weather for the next day (the day after the one you're about to start) is decided. Quick save before you go to bed, sleep, then check the forecast. If you're not happy with the next day's weather, load and sleep again until satisfied. No more typhoons!

    • @JoshGamingGarden
      @JoshGamingGarden  Год назад +2

      That's a good one! It can be a bit tedious but worth it if you want to avoid typhoons!

    • @mike1024.
      @mike1024. Год назад +1

      ​@@JoshGamingGarden definitely! I hated typhoons. I've used this for trying to get rain before, and that is VERY tedious. Best just to use it for no typhoons.

    There's no penalty for staying up super late. As long as you go to bed before 6am you get the full night sleep. If you eat a medical herb you won't get sick. As long as you have one of those you can stay up all night every night to do farm work.

    One I wish someone told me before: Don't waste time planting flowers on your farm UNTIL you win the Sea Festival prize. The katori prize will actually greatly reduce the chances of enduring a typhoon.
    Meaning if you happen to buy a greenhouse AND plant flowers to get the marbles from Stu, both of them could possibly be destroyed after a typhoon. Had to learn this the hard way. One time, I even had TWO typhoon storms back to back! I was so upset, but luckily none of my animals died somehow.

    I grew up playing Harvest Moon Back to Nature, as it was the reason, I fell in love with farming games. I even still emulate it on my phone from time to time. How similar is 64 from BTN on the PS one?

    • @mike1024.
      @mike1024. Год назад

      BTN is a new game with the same characters and graphics as HM64. The characters had the same names but had some changes like different families, different personalities, etc. For example, Karen is very unfriendly in HM64 at first and is much nicer in BTN. Think of HM64 as a simplified BTN because they expanded on a lot of things when BTN was made. By no means does it make HM64 a boring game without enough content though. It's definitely worth a full playthrough!
