When I want to get in the mood for Halloween decorating, I always end up watching this, Lonesome Ghosts, Haunted House and Silly Symphonies: The Skeleton Dance .

I know it’s not right, but I still like how it came out...

Finally done with this last DLC I’ve been wanting to make for quite some time. Dragon Essence is special among my games as the majority of the soundtrack is commissioned. (I normally used royalty-free soundtrack). For this DLC, I compiled all the original soundtrack, including unused tracks, remixes, and no vocal tracks. I also made an 18-pages booklet to compliment it. Hope you like them! (●´ω｀●)

P.S: The soundtrack is free for those who currently pledged 5 USD and above in my Patreon.

Harvest Moon 30 Day Challenge: Day 18

Day 18: So, not to be negative, but to make this challenge a part of a balanced breakfast, what’s your least favorite HM game?

Ignoring Natsume’s "Harvest Moon” series (because that’s too easy), it’s a toss up between Island of Happiness/Sunshine Islands or The Tale of Two Towns. I never made it into Summer in either game. I would also say Another Wonderful Life, but I’ve never given that one an honest chance, so I can’t really criticize it.

The main issue with the ToTT and the Island games... I found all the characters bland or recycled, especially for the Island ones and I was really excited for a new cast finally, but everyone felt like they were just replacing someone from Mineral Town... But that’s just me, they just didn’t catch me. I even hoped with the new controls in Sunshine, I’d enjoy it more and I did play a little longer, but nothing gripped me.

Tale of Two Towns was a really interesting concept. I was excited for its release, but I was very disappointed, again really bland characters. I’ve restarted the game in both villages to see if it would improve my experience, but no. Plus the requests always made me feel rushed. I think Trio of Towns really improved that mechanic, it’s not unreasonable with you.

That said, I do plan to give both games another chance, but... it’s gonna be a struggle for me. I really want to like them, I really do...

But that does lead me to wonder, if the games were always that bland (even in Japan) or if Natsume did a poor job translating them.

I think most fans know Natsume has edited some of the character sprites in the past to avoid issues in the states (I can only think of Grand Bazaar at the moment) and tried to hide drunk characters for a period, but it makes me wonder if they may have been censoring more than we know or if things simply got lost in translation, such as Luke’s letter having a secret message and other little things like that.

Once Xseed became the new North American publisher, the dialogue overall was vastly improved, but that could be mere coincidence and the games themselves improved.

Before the publisher switch over, A New Beginning felt like a much better game than most of Natsume’s previous titles, but I still always wondered even if something in that was changed...

Not sure if I should list where they're from.... some are pretty obvious, some are more obscure.
