Today Marvelous Entertainment showcased a trailer and footage of Rune Factory 4 Special for Nintendo Switch alongside a tease of Rune Factory 5.
Rune Factory is a series with humble origins that started as a spin-off to the, then called, Harvest Moon series. In fact, the first game’s full title was Rune Factory: A Fantasy Harvest Moon. However, over time the series was able to branch away from being just a spin off and find an identity to call its own.
I had one for ps3. Would've bought this ps4 one but couldn't find a physical. Did try it off ps plus wasn't bad I'd put some time into it.
Xbox Writes:
Coming Soon: more “available today” notifications! We’re excited to bring you some simulators, slayers, stacking, and more. Let’s get to the games! Available Today Chicory: A Colorful Tale (Cloud, Console, and PC)Chicory: A Colorful Tale is a top-down adventure game in a coloring book world where you can draw on anything.
Meh. I'll be purchasing & playing SF6, Diablo 4 & FFXVI for the month of June.
Slayers X and Amnesia the Bunker (please be better than Rebirth) I'm really excited to try.
Already own Rune Factory, but great game.
Remember really liking Stacking back in the day. Might be time to give it another go.
This is one budget-tier list of games. A lot of this stuff is barely a step above RPG maker.
It's pretty sad that game pass has reached the point where Chicory a game made by just a couple of people is the highlight game. And that's not to say it's a bad game (it is basic as all get out) but this is some seriously low budget filler.
Pretty much all these games are made by similarly small teams, this may be the least value month they have ever offered.
If this is all they can afford to pass out I don't know how they expect to fund development for for all these studios they now own. I guess that's why they have the media hyping up low-budget crap like Hi-Fi Rush and Pentament, games they can crap out cheaply.
Behold the future of game pass.
GamePass has been absolutely crap last months...
PS+ Extra/Premium shaping up to be the better service
VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Part of the joy of video games is leaving the regular world behind for a while and playing make-believe. And no other genre allows that fantasy more thoroughly than simulation. In the year 2022, players had plenty of simulation fantasies from which to pick. They could scout talent, manage finances, and guide a Formula 1 team to glory in F1 Manager 2022. Or, they could start a power washing business from their garage in PowerWash Simulator and wash their troubles away with odd jobs around the town of Muckingham. Alternatively, they could take a ranger post in the charming seaside town of Rigbarth, grow crops, fight monsters, and get married in Rune Factory 5. They could even build the university of their dreams in Two Point Campus."
Excellent
Can't wait to dive back into RF again.
