Looks good but I'm skeptical about substance, content and singleplayer fun.

If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

I don't know what this is. Was it a series previously?

So it's like ... a farming/life sim like Harvest Moon or Animal Crossing ... with RPG elements? Wtf japan you're so confusing, 99% of the IPs in this genre blend together and look the same to me.

Anyways it looks really cool, might buy it, haven't played this kind of game.

Stardew Valley is both farming and RPG. Seems a lot of people don't know that it's also a dungeon crawler. So it's not a very new concept. Other Harvest Moon spinoffs did it too.

Nah it's still pretty farfetched. Sony is practically handing out Free Devkits to Indie Developers, that is why Indie Devs have such a great relationship with Sony. And I get that since it is a Japan Base Dev Team(?) that they choose Switch first, but there are loads of JRPG's on the Ps4 that aren't available in the west. Not to mention that since it is x86 and a free dev kit, porting to the PS4 would cost practically next to nothin since it is coming to PC first and foremost.

Could just be to motivate more kickstarter donations... doesn't really seem like that logic adds up given Xbox1 is behind the PS4, but if you were sure that a lot of people with the PS4 want a game then placing it further back in the stretch goals might be an incentive for that community to keep donating.

It probably has far more to do with the fact that Nintendo is home to Animal Crossing, Harvest Moon, and Story of Seasons and thus already has a strong attraction for the demographics that this game is targetting.

Let's hope it doesn't get the ps4 stretch goal and stays as switch console exclusive.

With 16 more days.. I seriously doubt that but keep dreaming.
Also even if it didn't meet it it's not Switch Exclusive because it is PC first and foremost.

I love what I am seeing Monser Rancher meets Harvest Moon Meets Rune factory!

Yeah I agree, especially given the Xbox1 is behind the PS4. They must just think that the Switch is the right platform for it.

Guys it's less than $200 away from reaching the PS4 stretch goal! Guess I'll be buying it on PS4 then, I watched the trailer and read the kickstarter, and I'm loving what I'm seeing/reading...

That's good. It'll be able to reach out to even more people~
