Farming sims can often be incredibly stressful, but Story Of Seasons: A Wonderful Life teaches the art of slow living.

    I’ve always wanted to try a farming sim. I think I own two versions of Stardew Valley but haven’t played either of them!

    I know if I do get into one it will be game over for any other games.

      Go for it! Time on Stardew Valley is time well spent!

      I find the farming sims that have a plotline are easier for me to stop, even if I get obsessed, because you finish the story, befriend everyone… And then there isn’t much left to do unless you just want to chill and collect things. At which point you can move to My Time At Portia or any of the hundreds of similar games and start the whole process all over a… I have issues, don’t I?

        have you played rune factory? it’s my favorite of the farming simulator genre. I found Stardew a little plot lite for my tastes when I played it. I feel like after I finish the community center, why would I keep playing? rune factory 4 for the switch or PC is imo the perfect game.

          I forgot about RF! I got high recommendations for those games back before they were on steam, and they looked exactly like my thing.

          I just threw them all on my steam wishwatchlist since there should be sales soon.

      Stardew is one of the best games i’ve ever played. I come back to it every year or so. It really cemented my wife’s love for gaming permanently.
