Man, that improved art looks so much better. It's not higher res, it's not more colors, it's just so much more well designed.

I mean, just compare this:


With this:


On another note, can you edit the OP to add in proper thumbnails for the images? timg tags are nice for small amounts of images like what's on this page, but when you have as many images linked in the OP as you do, timg tags get real bad because the forum is actually having your browser render those at full resolution and then downsampling. When you have a lot of them on screen at once, performance goes to hell even on a modern computer.

Well, that's not much longer at all than your average HM or RF game, to be honest.

I don't think the "they're all mentally disabled" argument has much merit, but it is pretty drat lame that they're all white. This is America's Heartland, no minorities allowed. It's too real. :v:

Maybe this is something mods can fix, given time?

No, this is something that mods are probably least likely to fix. I'm not sure I've ever seen a mod for any game ever whose aim was simply adding more/improved dialogue to the existing character set. It's not a very glamorous mod to make, it would come with a lot of creative restrictions, and I don't think modders would do a very good job at it, anyways.

This game was basically made by one person, right? ConcernedApe doesn't seem like a great writer, and that shows. The characters are pretty devoid of personality overall, and you can also tell that his priorities lied elsewhere in the game's development when you see how much repeat dialogue there is. There's still a good chunk of dialogue, though. There's a lot more than your average Harvest Moon game, but less than your average Rune Factory game. The Rune Factory games had one or more dedicated writers on staff, who were good at what they did. You can't really expect that out of an indie HM clone, so I've come to terms with the dialogue's mediocrity.

So I just got the diamond quest for Clint and like five minutes later I peeked into a trash can for kicks and found a loving diamond in it. Sometimes lucky?
