Ok I cant believe I never reviewed Harvestella, I love harvestella, its so good. Even tho its been about 18 months since I last played it I still have really fond memories of playing this. My memories are not complete and some things are a bit hazy but I want to right this because I still care about this game. I wouldn't say Harvestella is the best farming game I've played, I also wouldn't say its the best JRPG or action game I've played, but I can say that it is good enough in both aspects to hold up over the length of it all. The farming is certainly not complicated, but it does all the right things, I always wanted to make sure I was being smart with what I grew and where, always looking for small efficient improvements i could make, always looking for the next thing I got to grow, hunting for the new thing so i could make some new stuff, Its maybe a little slow in how long it takes to expand but I think it mostly works when mixed with the other half of the game. The combat, also, is kinda simple in its parts but it still leaves room for some smart decisions as well as letting you have fun with what you want, there is a pretty decent class system with good variety and while you can stick to what you like they give you good incentives to change it up and find a new fav. While the combat isn't the most complicated, its also not the most demanding and strikes a nice balance, there are certainly some difficulty spikes, but you also have all the time in the world, there is no real pressure and i really liked that. What I want from a farming game and a JRPG as far as story and characters go are, surprisingly, or maybe unsurprisingly, very similar, What i want from a farming game is some mild pressure from a story and some fun and memorable characters that ill get to know over time and fall in love with. What I want from JRPG, is heightened emotion, melodrama, memorable characters. these two thing really mesh well together, things start slow, strange mysteries abound, what is quietus, who is this strange girl, what's with the weird things in the ruins. Its all a little predictable if you've played enough games. but I think they handle it really well and all the characters and story live well in my mind. A final note, but a big one, I care about music, A LOT, it more often than not is a make or break thing for me, a bad OST can really drag down a game for, just as a great one can really elevate a average game. I can happily say that Harvestella has a wonderful OST, sure there's some standard fare here, but there are also some really incredible stand out stuff that I still listen to now. I really enjoyed my time playing this game and its a bummer to know I'm probably not gonna get another like this from square enix. As I sit here, trying to drag out my memories, thinking about what to write, It really helped me realise how much a appreciated this game, and now as I finish I cant help but really want to load Harvestella up and give it another run though, I just, c'mon square, please give me a harvestella 2.
Well, I played it all the way through and it was OK at best. If you want to play an actual farming game, Stardew or Sun Haven are infinitely better. If you want to play a compelling RPG, there are endless options out there that exceed this particular title. I would probably go for a 5/10. If you're unfamiliar with farming RPGs this would probably be a nice introduction into the genre, but as I previously stated, it pales in comparison to other RPGs that excel in their respective roles. I could recommend it at not AAA pricing. Wait for it to go on sale. The character art is beautiful and the story isn't horrible, but it's definitely not worth 60$ in my opinion.
This is not a Farming Sim with JRPG elements. It is an amazingly written JRPG with some farm sim on the side. As someone who's grown up on Final Fantasy and Fire Emblem and Persona, the plot of this overlooked gem genuinely shocked me (it GREAT ways) multiple times. Also: I have never been so invested in NPC sidequests, and I LOVE sidequests
Harvestella is such a mixed bag to the point I felt compelled to write a review. An action JRPG with a job system, where you supply your adventure both financially and with provisions with your own personal farm? That sounds amazing! But unfortunately it falls short in all these branches. The jobs seems cool and interesting, there is some unique stuff in here. But the combat itself while being an action RPG isn't much more then face tanking your foe and spam healing items as you need them. Some of the boss fights have light MMO like mechanics to them but nothing too difficult. The farming is about as basic as it gets. The best thing I can say about it is it isn't annoying to interact with. All this is still just fine, not as good as i was hoping but its fine. Where this game really stands out and what kept me going was its character writing and its story. I cannot stress just how great these characters are and the fact I enjoyed all of them alot is impressive. The story is interesting, and fun, it had me excited to see where it was going. It really tackles topics like the meaning of faith, or legacy in ways that are handled so well and beyond the typical answers we have seen for these topics time and time again. Then it kinda fell flat in its ending unfortunately. There is a character creator that is so minimal it may aswell not even be there. There is also no accessibility options. So your standard SquareEnix affair. So thats alot of negativity, why do I still recommend it? because in my opinion the good, and great far out weighs the mediocre aspects, I am glad I played it. I got it from a 60% off sale and I think thats about how much it is worth. Just dont pay full price for it.
Surprised me with a genuinely compelling story (despite the slow start) and a solid OST that shines in key moments, especially during boss fights. The farming sim aspect didn't have as much impact as I thought, I barely had to grind besides planting whatever seeds I was receiving for free to be able to sustain myself with foods and upgrade my weapons to a decent level. It serves more like a side activity than a core gameplay loop. Combat felt clunky, definitely wouldn't recomment this game if you're looking for interesting combat system. Some bosses have fun mechanics and that's all, the fact that you get locked in every attack animation while enemies can freely hit you a thousand times doesn't feel right. It's obviously designed so players make use of the cooking + eating food features but still it could have been done better. If you're in it for the narrative and atmosphere, there's definitely something here, but don’t expect a smooth or satisfying combat experience.
