The festivals are at least better than Grand Bazaar? the Romantic festivals (at least when you're married) are good? Folks like Doctor Ayame, Gombe, Mako, Howard & Eileen were awesome! I actually found alot of the regular townsfolk memorable, more than most of the other DS games at least.Kinda poorly executed, but hey at least the concept was in place, and some of the after-marriage dates were nice.
#Best harvest moon game for ds series#
The start of the toning down of the more mature elements, no more Bar, the series started becoming very kiddie :(.No dynamic schedules like in previous games.Also apparently I've heard their personalities were better done in IOH?

The cast/town is kinda bland, most of them just seem to be ripoffs of the MT cast.Sunstone system is better than collecting Sprites, it's easier and at least it doesn't block off marriage.The only DS game to have proper Wedding attire!!!.Extensive gameplay, there's always something to do.It's festivals in general are probably the best out of the DS lot though that's not saying much. THE RETURN OF THE GODDESS FESTIVAL! Ngl, just having this is the sole thing that shot this up my list.The way they frame portraits/the artstyle of it is kinda creepy.The personalities all seem toned down, the tone in general just feels off.The festivals are even worse than the already watered down (M)FOMT's festivals.Touch screen controls to scroll through equipment and petting animals are awkward.Finding 60 Sprites just to get married is just a grind and a chore, they should've had it similar to Magical Melody's note system.Glitches, Glitches, and more Glitches, assuming you're not playing Cute.Did I mention your kid can grow into a teen permanently?.


The DS era was a bit of a "dark age" for the Bokumono series as I'm sure most will agree.
