Now the dust has settled, can we all agree that it's fucking crazy this game sold over 1.1m copies? That's an absolute fuckton of money and it was created by one guy on one platform with the game only being available in English with minimal marketing.

I mean, 5 years ago this sort of shit made sense, but the indie game space is so crowded that something like this breaking out like this is crazy.

Thirsty thirsty steam idiots who don't either have handhelds or can't into emulation.
>>
>>338393294
Or because paying $15 for a fun game is fair plus the game runs on any shitty old potato of a computer which massively broadens its audience?
>>
no its not. It built on an already succesful genre one which was lacking on the PC, also it was made to be similar to old school games(Im not talking about just the pixelart) which is something that you dont find anymore because everyone is trying to be accesible right now.It's a niche game which has a large userbase so of course people were gonna buy it.
>>
>>338393492
Ok, so what other successful genres are missing from PC that are just waiting for the right game to come along to capture people's imaginations?
>>
>>338393621

Animal Crossing

Impossible!

OH SHIT

What we need is someone to make a PC version of fucking Pokemon.

>>338393669
Isn't that pretty much just Nintendo's knock-off of Harvest Moon anyway?

>>338393621
tactics series likes and advance wars likes

A trpg with characters that aren't disposable

Reminder that Valkyria Chronicles is literally on PC.

This is largely due to underhanded marketing tactics employed by Chucklefish (A.K.A the fucks behind Starbound)
>>
>>338393294
Name one harvest moon better than stardew valley.
>>
>>338394069
I bought Valkyria, and didn't like the playstyle at all.
I was thinking basically just a fire emblem clone. At least of a fire emblem pre awakening

Wow... who would've thought
it's still a shitty Harvest Moon

>15mil minus steam's and chucklefucks cuts all to yourself

The dev probably doesn't even know what to do with himself now.

If this game gets ported to PS4 and Xbox1 im sure the author would make another dump truck full of money.I never understood why Harvest moon was an exclusive. The only recurring characters in those games are horses and chickens n' shit
>>
>>338394491
He can do what he wants now, and he seems content with adding some more shit to the game for free.

>>338394936
Because Harvest Moon was a low-budget Japanese title. The series did okay but it wasn't a blockbuster or anything.

And, yeah, he's letting Chucklefish outsource ports for him so I would expect it to hit every platform going (sans mobile). I think it would do best on 3DS.

bad
>time went to fast
>character seemed slow due to the long way you needed to travel into town every now and then
>graficly lacking even if the dev redid it 3-4 times
>endgame is lacking

overall i found it to be a good game, amazed it was done by one guy
>>
>>338394069
Reminder that game is utter trash. The tactics are literally broken (thanks scouts) and the "moeshit anime shoehorned into global conflict" visual style is nausea-inducing.
>>
>>338395409
Isn't that Vita Monster Hunter clone coming to PC? I forget its name, but the PS4 version of the sequel comes with the original in the west.
>>
>>338395409
>>338395565
Googled it and found I was thinking of God Eater.
>>
It's equivalent to Cities Skylines. A quality game whose genre hasn't had a good release in many years.
>>
>>338395658
I'm itching for a Monster Hunter like game with comparable depth and content. Probably a pipe dream.
>>
>>338394664
NO JIUB NO

Rune factory 2 and 3
Oceans and Frontier if we go to consoles

Don't change the subject.

>>338395754
Well, people seem to like God Eater iirc.

only good gimick in the recent Harvestmoons was the trick to dig a trenches to water easyer and seedmaker

>>338396616

and they also have gone to shit with the graphics man. top down 2d doesnt fucking work for harvest moon
