I really hope it gets a PC port like FOMT.

How is the remade FOMT? I’m eyeing it next time it’s on a steam sale. I did play the GBA original.

I played and enjoyed Trio of Towns on my 3ds a while ago but am getting the itch to play another farming game, been considering trying to go back to my save of ToT and finish it or doing a Stardew Valley replay.

I intensely dislike its art style but other than that it's a pretty good upgrade from the original, with QoL features and gay marriage.

Hello all! If I've never played a Harvest Moon or Rune Factory game before, which one of the games should I get for the Switch: Rune Factory 4, SoS: FOMT, or SoS:PoOT? Or should I just start a second farm on Stardew Valley? (I played my first game of SV back when 1.4 came out, so I haven't tried out the 1.5 additions yet). Any advice would be appreciated; I'm just so indecisive (and the somewhat mixed reviews on Olive Town aren't helping :( )!

I did enjoy Animal Crossing for the first couple of months, but slowly stopped logging in around June. I like being able to experience time passing more quickly than it does in real life! Though I was often annoyed by how fast the days go by in Stardew Valley; do days work the same way in RF or SoS games?

I'm not sure if there's a reason to pick FOMT if those are your choices.

Rune Factory 4 has the best characters and combat.
SoS:PoOT if you want to focus on farming.

That looks amazing.

Very disappointed about the lack of same-sex relationships though. :negative:

How's the performance?

I've been playing rf5 and I can't tell if the performance is better in handheld mode or if I just notice it less on the tiny screen.

Does anyone else have problems with the timing for the dodge + hit? It feels really random if it triggers or not.

I just started RF4S this week and it's been a blast. Are the earlier ones in the series worth checking out later on?

I think RF3 is as far back as you can go without starting to miss QoL updates. Also, RF3 has the best characters so far.

Ended up hacking my switch just to be able to overclock it and drat, it makes a huge difference when playing RF5 in docked mode. The only stuttering left is when loading new areas, everything else seems to be a mostly smooth 30 fps.

I'd love to hear about similar games and this thread is dead most of the time anyway.

I regret getting RF5 on the switch so this is great.

RF3 has the best characters in the entire franchise so it's definitely worth giving it a try.
