I'd have to say my most nostalgia is with Sunshine Islands and Tale of Two Towns (I still get made fun of to this day for having a crush on Pierre from Sunshine Islands when I tell any of my friends he was my childhood crush as a little kid, I still love him tho).

I have so many memories with the DS Harvest Moon games (Born 2002 so my nostalgia is with the Harvest Moon DS and 3Ds games). My fave bachelor from ToTT was Cam, I had a crush on him as a kid, which is a bit funny cause that same year I went on to have a crush on a boy in my class who wore a news cap to school every day just like Cam haha. Also in ToTT I have to agree on loving all the characters besides Harvest Goddess, I was kind of mad at her for being so lazy to fix the cave when she was literally the one who made it collapse lol. But I anticipate it getting way up there because I can finally be gay in game.Įdit: most of Rune Factory is also good since it blends farming with combat but it's also it's own thing (kinda, but not really)įirst of all, thank you for such a well thought out reply as no one has really explained their answers (my fault for not asking why) but I loved reading your explanation! I see a lot of people with Animal Parade as their first choice, which makes me really want to play it! Too bad I don't have a Wii, I will play it eventually.

I haven't played enough of the Friends of Mineral Town remake to rank it in my list.

What makes ToTT for me is the characters, there isn't a single one I dont love (excluding the Goddess).

Building up the town in ANB is great even if material gather could be tedious.

The three towns in ToT are distinct and I enjoy most of the characters.

Dessie and Witchie are adorable and I really like the harvest sprites.

Seeing the marketplace expand in SoS is nice the thing that happens in winter of year 2 hurts.

I like how characters are introduced as the plot unfolds in AP.

This wasn't entirely based on bachelor/ettes (though Kamil and Wizard are my all time faves) because story and side characters do play an important role. Also I prefer the more anime style of the art over the chibis even if the chibis are the original look. I'd put Grand Bazzaar in 5 because I really like the Bazzaar mechanic more than I like the cooking competition BUT I can walk through plants in ToTT so that automatically wins. 1 Animal Parade and Story of Seasons (og) are tied for me.
