As a long-time Stardew Valley fan, I never thought I'd find a game that could capture my heart quite the same way. Fields of Mistria has done just that. I'm honestly blown away by how good this game is
note: just a random fan, have nothing to do with this game at all. It kinda saddens me that it hasn't gotten as much attention though, there are so many mediocre games with soooo many reviews.. this game is legit insane. it's gorgeous!!
Edit: Concerned Ape must've seen my post, and now Stardew Valley has a midweek deal for -50% off LMFAO you cannot make this up
I probably would've already gotten it if wasn't early access, the possibility of having to restart a game that requires a lot of time commitment is a deal breaker for me, so I'd rather wait until it's finished. On another note, I'm kind of tired of so many Stardew Valley clones, I wish there were more games like Rune Factory instead with less farming and more RPG and dungeon crawling. I think the only one like that that comes to mind is Sun Haven(?) and that one has been in my backlog since forever now...
I totally understand this, and I used to feel the same way but then I realized that these creators probably need the support if they are going to go from early access to full release. It really helps, and it wasn't really that much, $14. I canceled World of Warcraft And Hulu for a month because there was nothing to watch there anyway. That was more than enough to buy it. But I don't blame you at all of you don't want to support early access games! I totally understand
You: has a very reasonable take
Lemmy: downvotes
I don't really mind early access, but it really depends on the game, stuff that is very pick-up and play like roguelikes and shooters is fine, but anything story based or long is a hard pass for me.
If you haven't yet, definitely check out Core Keeper!
That's like Rune Factory? I thought it was more like Minecraft/Terraria but top-down. It's been living in my Steam wishlist for a while too now, waiting for a decent discount.
No, it's indeed a top down terraria.
I am absolutely addicted to core keeper right now. The 1.0 update is so good.
Sun haven was a pleasant experience. Rather than automating farming, I just cause earthquakes and rainstorms to plow and water respectively. My only complaint is my thumb hurting from constantly air dashing around.
Man I love Sun Haven! I definitely feel more involved in tending to my crops by using magic than setting up a sprinkler system. Co-op made for a really cute time.
Part of me wished the story was a little bit more than just an excuse to get you new farms but wouldn't want to ruin the tone haha.
