I repaired it after the video, sorry! You have to make a plank maker, then you put 3 logs in the maker and it makes one plank. Also it takes a few hours in-game for each plank. On the other side there's a broken barn, hardwood trees and a few other new resources! With the crafting, there's way more resource-gathering than in previous Story of Seasons. I don't know if you've played My Time at Portia but it kind of reminds me of that game more than anything else.
It’s been over a year since you started this play through but all of your let’s plays are so comforting to me. So thank you for making such wonderful and relaxing content that I can unwind to or that cheers me up on a bad day. Hope all is well and I’m hyped for the next “A Wonderful Life” release!
I'm scheduled for my second Covid vaccine right after this comes out, so I already have planned two days off from work for that. Guess what I'll be doing that entire time, lol.
NOOOOO time works inside structures. :c Still, can't wait until next month for this! So excited! I have to say, I'll miss character portraits. I loved seeing still arts of villagers' and their different expressions.
Yes, I noticed that after the video, I took a break while in my house and when I came back it was night. >.< I really do miss the portraits too! I feel like it's not too bad during cutscenes, but when you talk to someone normally, you barely see them and you really feel the lack of emotions. :/
I really like that there is more stuff to do in this Story of Seasons game, my first Story of Seasons game was the remake game on Nintendo Switch and I adore it but I wish there was more stuff to do but I'm very happy that they added more stuff to do in this one. I'm so happy you can get a dog or cat and you don't have to wait for the season to get one like in the other game which I hated lol
Yes I agree! You can definitely feel that Mineral Town is a remake of a game that's almost 20 years old, as it lacks the content we're expecting in more recent games. Getting a pet was such a pain, and if it rained on that day Van wouldn't come and you had to wait an extra month. x)
I agree! I regret spending so much money on friends of mineral town, the game felt very shallow and i got bored after only a few days, but i think i'm going to give this one a chance
@@SofieSka Aw that's so sad! The original Friends of Mineral Town GBA was what got me into Harvest Moon/Story of Seasons. I would say the original one has more charm though. So I can understand playing newer ones and then having the remake be so restrictive.
Same, It was also way too easy. Why did they give us all the farming buildings for example. Just wasn't catching and I stopped playing within a week - Just a waste of my monies but I'm looking forward to RF5 and this. Hoping its also not a bust or I'll blacklist the games for a while
Hi Josh! As someone who was also introduced to the Harvest Moon/Story of Seasons franchise with Harvest Moon 64, I greatly appreciated an in-depth look at this new title. You've earned yourself a new subscriber!
Thank you for the video!!! I am so excited for the game to come out. My mom gave me a $30 eshop card, and I bought the story of seasons mineral town because it was on sale and it was so much fun. I'm excited to get this game on my birthday or christmas!!
time is moving inside buildings ? and no character portraits ... can it have multiple saves or is it lock in one playthrough ? and having dlc characters is a bummer
@@JoshGamingGarden Thanks a bunch for taking the time to check mine out 🥺💖!! I'm actually bad at public speaking and YT commentary, so don't mind me! 😂😅 But I appreciate it a lot!!🙏 I'm so glad I found your channel, so I'll definitely be watching all of your future SoS videos from now 😎🔥
Empezando la lista de videos del juego, vas tan avanzado que me pierdo, bueno vamos a hacernos spoilers hehehe, ojalá tenga la granja tan bien organizada como tú Josh 🤭, algún día
I shouldn't be overhyped again with this game but I am so getting this game and I want it! What is the best/worst of this game so far? Did you get the dlc too?
Great question. Here's what I think after 15 days in-game (which is quite short) Best: Customization of your farm, gathering resources to open up new areas, I feel like there are lots of things to work towards! I also really like the museum and collecting all the fish, animal photos and treasures! Worst: Events might be a bit lacking or too simple? Also, since the camera is pretty high, you barely see villagers when you talk to them. I wish we had the portraits. I got the DLC, will definitely cover them when they come out!
So what's your final verdict? I was looking forward to it but I worry. I love the re-make but it didn't have much content, I was into it for like a week or two then moved on 😥
It's still early for a final verdict (I want to play a full in-game year before I can answer this properly), but so far I'm really enjoying it! There's a lot of content so far, and even though a few things are disappointing (social interactions, events), I think the farming and crafting makes up for it, but that also depends on what playstyle you prefer.
Are you able to play Harvest Moon One World early too. I was thinking of playing it while waiting for Story of Seasons but wanted to see how it looked first.
Can you give your opinion on how quickly time passes in-game? 1 second in real life seems to be 1 minute in-game but do you feel like that's enough? Did you feel rushed to cram everything in one day? Ty 😙
Thank you for doing this video! Im very excited for the game to come out in America. Also I just wanted to ask how many saving slots do you get in this game? And thank you again :)
@@JoshGamingGarden kinda wanna get myself a switch just for this game. I was obsessed with all HM games back then. Mybe i'll wait for the Switch Pro to come out. XD
If you're planning to buy a Switch in 2021, waiting for the Switch Pro would definitely be a wise move if you have the patience! The remake of Mineral Town is totally worth it as well!
I just found Your channel from looking for pioneers Of Olive town Gameplay. Now I subscribed and I can't wait to see what other videos you have I would love to see you Do a live stream
Thanks for making this video! I am looking forward to next month. Is it a game that you can play for hours like games as Animal Crossing? Or is it too simple and fun for a shorter amound of time?
Oh, you can play for hours! I've spent my whole weekend playing it! There's always something to look forward to such as upgrading your tools, repairing something, expanding your house, and it makes it quite addictive.
Thanks for this video. Pretty impressive so far, I may consider preordering this game with the bundle for the Switch (Lite). This gives me some idea how the game works and what to do. I am thinking since I would have the work cut out for me, I would save the onions for energy instead of selling them. For the supermarket I think you can buy food/crops for energy, recipes and gifts, sort of like the one place in Harvest Moon Magical Melody for Gamecube/Wii. Funny I was thinking about it and thought it would be nice to have it return to help build friendships and romance. Good luck with the game when it comes out in English, and/or continue having fun with the Japanese version and learn from it.
I feel like there are so many games coming out at once. I got Persona 5 strikers, tomorrow, I get bravely default 2, then story of seasons and monster hunter rise also come within a few days of each other. You say you're boring because you like the default character, but it's not your fault, the default character looks really good.
Thank you so much for this! I'm eagerly awaiting my copy of the game, but at least we only have to wait a month and not a year (or more) as with most localizations. Seeing all the different options in the character creation, I know I'm going to have a hard time deciding on what I want - almost as much of a hard time as I'll have deciding which bachelor to pursue, lol. I did have one question, however. Are the camera shots on the loading screens actual pictures taken by other players? I'm guessing they might be, but I was hoping you could confirm whether or not they are. Thanks!
Yes I'm surprised at how close the Japanese and international release are to each other! Yes, the photos in the loading screens are from actual players! You have to speak to Laura and you can choose a picture to upload for others to see. :)
I'd definitely pick Olive Town over One World! It's just more polished and a better experience overall. One World has interesting mechanics such as the possibility to move your farm around and areas with different climates, but they haven't been executed really well and for me it just felt very repetitive.
Where are you from? You can read Japanese but you live in North America? BTW your accent is so cute. I enjoy your vdo so much. I'm gonna watch them all!!!!
Haha thank you! I'm French-Canadian, so that's where my accent comes from. French is my first language but I used to live in Japan for 2 years so I learned it there!
So lucky! I don't understand why marvelous didn't do worldwide release. It sucks not being able to play because im so excited about this. FoMT was my first farming sim. Im getting Harvest moon one world for meanwhile but id be lying if I said this wasn't the game im most excited for.
You need to change the region of your Nintendo account to Japan (you'll have to log on a web browser, that can't be done via your Switch). Then you'll have access to the Japanese eshop. However, the Japanese eshop doesn't accept foreign credit cards, so you'd have to find some website to buy Japanese eshop cards. It's a bit of a hassle, but worth it!
I've actually never got to play these two entries. >.< So far, it reminds me quite a bit of A New Beginning for the farm customization, and I don't know if you've played My Time at Portia, but all the resource gathering and makers remind me of that game quite a bit! The whole crafting system definitely makes it feel quite different from previous Story of Seasons games!
Of what I know so far for the animals, there are cows (regular, brown and buffalos), two types of goats, sheeps, white and brown alpacas, chickens, silk chickens, and rabbits!
@@JoshGamingGarden thanks! Loving your videos by the way! Thank you for taking the time to translate for the rest of us who still have to wait a month. Much appreciated!
I'd say there is a lot more to do in Olive town than in Mineral town! It feels less repetitive and so far I'm really enjoying that you can fully customize your farm. I loved the characters and interactions of Mineral Town better, but everything else Olive Town wins in my opinion!
Omg What this game so bad. I was gonna get Harvest Moon One World. But after seen so many better content in this game. I am gonna wait until it's launch date :D I love the video too.
I haven't played a harvest Moon game since Tree Of Tranquility which is when I lost interest in the series .Im undecided on this game still so im glad I can watch a demo on this.
Eeeee!! Why can't March hurry already! I see others buying the Japanese version, but i don't think i could lol. After awhile of trying to translate everything would have me a nervous wreck.
Even being able to read Japanese, I'm not fluent so it's draining quite a lot of my mental energy if I have to read a lot! That being said I think this kind of game is perfect for learning a second language as the dialogs are for the most part quite simple! At least this time the wait for the international release is not too long, usually these games come out 6 months to a year later outside of Japan.
@@JoshGamingGarden You make an excellent point about learning a second language. I hadn't ever thought of it like that before!! Thank you for sharing your game play with us!! Once my mom duties are done i can finish watching. I've been trying to play SDV and its so slow going at first. But i keep pushing and reminding myself if i stick with it, one day i can have a pretty farm that i can decorate and make tons of money easier
Good luck with your mom duties! ☺️ I played SDV too and it definitely takes some time to get enough money and resources before you can focus on making your farm pretty, and it's easy to give up before you get there. It's still early but I'm feeling the same with Olive Town, it's all about slow and steady progress! 🐮
@@JoshGamingGarden Oh man, on Reddit this game is catching so much flack. So much so i am considering holding off preordering it. My husband is the sole earner and i would be really upset to waste so much money on a game i hated. I'm think about waiting to see what the North American players think, which gives the devs a full month to patch up mistakes and fix things, and the season pass is available for a few months after release. So realistically i could wait to be on the safe side.
it looks just like A New Beginning but I do like the new animations. I hope they update the character portraits in or at least bring them back in the next game. I also feel like the bachelor designs are really bland (I like some of them, but they also all feel really generic? like they only make very palatable pretty boys these days). Igusa Matsuyama seems to have much more fun designing other characters. Their art is always so quirky so it feels like the devs make them tone it down and be cuter for the marriage candidates. The selling point for this game is the customization, which I like, but the rest of the game feels lacking. Luckily you can marry anyone no matter the gender so I could marry a girl if I want. I like the Jack guy though (I know he seems the most boring but I love the older brother type lol.)
Not bad (I rate it 8/10) but I don't like the crafting system, instant baby (without pregnancy), and manual house design. I prefer Mineral Town over this.
I've been thinking about getting this game when it comes out in english since I've been playing stardewvalley and I love it. If you haven't yet, you should play stardew valley josh you would love it too
Yes I played Stardew Valley so much a few years ago when it first came out and I loved it! With all of the recent updates the game had, I feel like I should revisit it eventually.
Ugh i thought the japanese version would at least have the english options ;-; this sucks....i really gotta wait for this game next month .-. Also pretty neat that you can understand it though :>
There's very rarely English options on Japanese games, especially if they release early. At least the international release is just a month away! With Mineral Towns and previous games it was usually 6-12 months!
@@JoshGamingGarden i didnt' know that o-o - interesting, and yeah..i've been reading some very concerning criticism about the game being bad...which isn't good at all.
I want to like this game but the mobile-like graphics when it comes to the actual farming is off-putting. Trying to watch vids bc if other parts are good and appealing enough, maybe I could over look the mobile graphics.
Yes I definitely understand your point, that's one thing that scared me a bit too. I'm still early in game, will see how it evolves later on but so far I have to say the game feels quite nice and I'm growing to like the graphics. Gameplay-wise it definitely is better than a mobile game!
@@JoshGamingGarden Okay, I can respect you not wanting to sell your soul for an advanced copy. It is odd to not be able to read along, but I appreciate you translating.
Leave a comment on what you'd like me to cover in a future Pioneers of Olive Town video!
I'd love to see a run-over of the marriage candidates, maybe just walk around and talk to them a little :D
I'd love to see if you can have multiple stables please
I know for sure you can have multiple coops and barns, I'll confirm for the stables once I unlock them!
I'm anxious to see that bridge repair. I want to see whats on the other side! It looks like you can't use regular logs?
I repaired it after the video, sorry! You have to make a plank maker, then you put 3 logs in the maker and it makes one plank. Also it takes a few hours in-game for each plank. On the other side there's a broken barn, hardwood trees and a few other new resources! With the crafting, there's way more resource-gathering than in previous Story of Seasons.

It kind of reminds me of Animal parade
I'm mixed about not having portraits--I really liked them BUT I feel the character models are cute enough that I'm ok without them.

Yes, there's a beauty salon that you unlock (it doesn't take very long!), and you can buy new clothes there!
At least it looks like the loading screen when going into building are fast compared to the load between areas.
Exactly! If you do a lot of back-and-forth between the town and the farm it gets quite tedious, otherwise it's pretty fast!

So, now that you've had a little time to play it, how does it compare to Animal Parade and Trio of Towns?
I've actually never got to play these two entries. >.<
So far, it reminds me quite a bit of A New Beginning for the farm customization, and I don't know if you've played My Time at Portia, but all the resource gathering and makers remind me of that game quite a bit! The whole crafting system definitely makes it feel quite different from previous Story of Seasons games!
I really want to know how many different types of animals you could have. If maybe there are more than the ones they have shown on the trailers.
Of what I know so far for the animals, there are cows (regular, brown and buffalos), two types of goats, sheeps, white and brown alpacas, chickens, silk chickens, and rabbits!

Yes, that was one of my favorite features in Magical Melody! I want a remake. 😭
So excited to get this on the 26th!
The characters are so cute!!
Can't wait to receive this game!
Ngl I feel bad for underestimating this game 🥰
Did you choose normal or seedling (easy) mode?
I'm playing on normal mode!
@@JoshGamingGarden thanks! Loving your videos by the way! Thank you for taking the time to translate for the rest of us who still have to wait a month. Much appreciated!
is there chance for pc? or its exclusive for switch
Only for Switch, at least for now!
How would you compare this to FMT?
I'd say there is a lot more to do in Olive town than in Mineral town! It feels less repetitive and so far I'm really enjoying that you can fully customize your farm. I loved the characters and interactions of Mineral Town better, but everything else Olive Town wins in my opinion!
Is this game can only play using nintendo switch???😞😖😖
Yes it's only available on the Switch.
@@JoshGamingGarden okay hehe...😣 I feel sad because I can't afford one.. I hope they will released in mobile version 😣😣😣😥
Super excited for this!!!
This was a great First Look of the game :D
Hello, how many Accounts can I have? One like animal crossing?
You can have up to 10 different save files! 🎉
Hi! I'm really excited for the worldwide release of this game omg! Do you happen to know if same-gender marriage is possible on this game?
Character portrait 😭
Yes I miss those!
It's so dumb they didn't put them in :/
Yeah! Especially after seeing this tweet

The artist drew the portrait (of Jack) themselves! :''''O
Omg What this game so bad. I was gonna get Harvest Moon One World. But after seen so many better content in this game. I am gonna wait until it's launch date :D I love the video too.
Thank for video !! I love this game
Thanks! I can't stop playing, more videos will be coming soon!
So happy I pre-ordered. 😍
I wait to buy on Mexico eShop
I adore the series but they really need to step up in the graphics department. The terrain looks so bland and lazy. Maybe it's just me tho
It’s strange, it almost feels like Trio of Towns has more texture and details to their graphics. Maybe it’s because of the heavy customization.
I haven't played a harvest Moon game since Tree Of Tranquility which is when I lost interest in the series .Im undecided on this game still so im glad I can watch a demo on this.
Glad I could help!
this is can playing multiplayer?
There's no multiplayer for now!
This game looks so cute!
It is, everything is so adorable! 🥰
Eeeee!! Why can't March hurry already! I see others buying the Japanese version, but i don't think i could lol. After awhile of trying to translate everything would have me a nervous wreck.
Even being able to read Japanese, I'm not fluent so it's draining quite a lot of my mental energy if I have to read a lot! That being said I think this kind of game is perfect for learning a second language as the dialogs are for the most part quite simple! At least this time the wait for the international release is not too long, usually these games come out 6 months to a year later outside of Japan.
@@JoshGamingGarden You make an excellent point about learning a second language. I hadn't ever thought of it like that before!! Thank you for sharing your game play with us!! Once my mom duties are done i can finish watching. I've been trying to play SDV and its so slow going at first. But i keep pushing and reminding myself if i stick with it, one day i can have a pretty farm that i can decorate and make tons of money easier
Good luck with your mom duties! ☺️ I played SDV too and it definitely takes some time to get enough money and resources before you can focus on making your farm pretty, and it's easy to give up before you get there.
It's still early but I'm feeling the same with Olive Town, it's all about slow and steady progress! 🐮
@@JoshGamingGarden Oh man, on Reddit this game is catching so much flack. So much so i am considering holding off preordering it. My husband is the sole earner and i would be really upset to waste so much money on a game i hated. I'm think about waiting to see what the North American players think, which gives the devs a full month to patch up mistakes and fix things, and the season pass is available for a few months after release. So realistically i could wait to be on the safe side.
Just preordered!!
Yay, congrats! Hope you'll enjoy it as much as I do!
More 10 days to wait ahhhh
How do you understand japanese? you're so lucky
I used to live in Japan for 2 years! :)
I'm curious can we still date bachelor's despite having the same gender?
Yes!
OMG! the pets! ottoke!!!
Thankss!
it looks just like A New Beginning but I do like the new animations. I hope they update the character portraits in or at least bring them back in the next game. I also feel like the bachelor designs are really bland (I like some of them, but they also all feel really generic? like they only make very palatable pretty boys these days). Igusa Matsuyama seems to have much more fun designing other characters. Their art is always so quirky so it feels like the devs make them tone it down and be cuter for the marriage candidates.
The selling point for this game is the customization, which I like, but the rest of the game feels lacking. Luckily you can marry anyone no matter the gender so I could marry a girl if I want. I like the Jack guy though (I know he seems the most boring but I love the older brother type lol.)
Not bad (I rate it 8/10) but I don't like the crafting system, instant baby (without pregnancy), and manual house design. I prefer Mineral Town over this.
I've been thinking about getting this game when it comes out in english since I've been playing stardewvalley and I love it. If you haven't yet, you should play stardew valley josh you would love it too
Yes I played Stardew Valley so much a few years ago when it first came out and I loved it! With all of the recent updates the game had, I feel like I should revisit it eventually.
What a nice accent you have. 😊😋
Hehe thank you, that's my French-Canadian accent!
@@JoshGamingGarden I really like it. ^^
Ugh i thought the japanese version would at least have the english options ;-; this sucks....i really gotta wait for this game next month .-.
Also pretty neat that you can understand it though :>
There's very rarely English options on Japanese games, especially if they release early. At least the international release is just a month away! With Mineral Towns and previous games it was usually 6-12 months!
@@JoshGamingGarden i didnt' know that o-o - interesting, and yeah..i've been reading some very concerning criticism about the game being bad...which isn't good at all.
Your character looks like Sasori
Link game nya gan
Last eye is Yandere version
I want to like this game but the mobile-like graphics when it comes to the actual farming is off-putting. Trying to watch vids bc if other parts are good and appealing enough, maybe I could over look the mobile graphics.
Yes I definitely understand your point, that's one thing that scared me a bit too. I'm still early in game, will see how it evolves later on but so far I have to say the game feels quite nice and I'm growing to like the graphics. Gameplay-wise it definitely is better than a mobile game!
Why are so many people playing the Japanese version of this? *goes off to try to find an English LP*
Because the Japanese version released a month earlier. Only a few select people have access to the English version. 😔
@@JoshGamingGarden Okay, I can respect you not wanting to sell your soul for an advanced copy. It is odd to not be able to read along, but I appreciate you translating.
So if japanese is not your native language, what is it then, because ur enhlish sounds also horrible....
My first language is French :)
@@JoshGamingGarden ah ok that explains
@@JoshGamingGarden well I think you speak English really well!
I love that you can dress your character however you want regardless of gender! ( at least that's what the customization looks like)
