Harvest Moon: The Winds of Anthos Review - Mid Was His Name O

Harvest Moon: The Winds of Anthos seems to be a step in the right direction for Natsume. The open-world approach distinguishes it as a game you can immerse yourself in, provided you can endure the lackluster prologue and the challenging early game. It stands well on its own, though I would caution against playing the Nintendo Switch version due to its poor optimization, which hampers the overall gaming experience.

I am all for big open world games, but you NEED to fill that world with lots to see, do, and collect. I've played farming sim games since the first A wonderful life came out and what I have learned that really keeps me coming back and enjoying is character customization, lots of good looking marriage candidates, the option to have multiple kids and those kids actually grow older, family can help with chores, being able to dress up and change hairstyles for my family. A great example for all that I previously listed would be "Animal Parade". Another huge thing for me is the ability to customize your entire farm, from moving buildings around, choosing paint, design, and being able to build a fence around your animals so they don't go all over. I also love having pets and horses with stats that can be increased with friendship and training. Having a big open world you can ride your horse around in while your dogs follow is a pretty cool idea.

Looks like harvest moon is back on the menu, boys!

I'm a bit baffled why "you live here and villagers know you" would confuse anyone?

Thanks for this review!
Am glad I ordered the PlayStation version.

While I know technically stoty of seasons is the actual "Harvest Moon" franchise i cant lie and say it isnt a little nice seeing the namesake finally pull itself out of a hole somewhat. Is this game perfect? No. But Natsume finally got there shish together to figure out what Harvest Moon was all those years ago.

Oh this looks pretty decent actually, might pick it up

It's like they didn't pay attention to the multitudes of farming games that are way more fun with a way lower price that have been releasing over the years.

I’m about to be 70 hours in, I am completely hooked! 😊

[robynwitheford]

I would love to try every other version of harvest moon games asap

Great review, I'm going to buy this for the nintendo switch. It really looks great.

[_Spokes]

I’m still iffy on this one but man, I really want a good quality farm sim.

[LuigiFunTime]

I was waiting for review of this game so long now because I want to see if I want to get the game or not & I’m going to get story of seasons a wonderful life this year due of the worst review so I’m going to give the game a better review instead of a bad review

[ShadedOne]

Good for Natsume. The last few games looked like flash games, looking forward to future improvements. Thanks for sharing your review

[PikaLink]

How I wish Project Zero games were pumped out as often.

[Spikemouth]

I stopped playing Harvest Moon when Natsume and Marvelous split. I stick to Story of Seasons.

[NuggetTato]

I didn't think there was a problem with the original ones, to me up to animal parade and tree of tranquility was good

[coreyatherley]

Shit looks like Pokémon but it doesn’t crash or have Pokémon falling through floors😂.

[SleepDepJoel]

Interesting characters and a living town are what's most important to me in life sim games, so I'm gonna give this one a pass based on the "generic dialogue" comments.

[arikari]

I think I'll stick with a second run in Harvestella. Ny only console is the switch, so seeing that low performance is kinda bad

[Switchgal]

Thanks a lot I’m about to buy a steam deck in a few months, think I’ll wait because right now I have a switch
