i love this game i'v played for 106 hours!
可以 ,但是BUG有点多
The game is amazing even if it still has some bugs (but we can use some of them), the story is cured and the characters are nice, not deep but this is expected. I played not just once but twice and i'm not gonna play a third time cos ...well cos of Pen and his arc. Pathea... we need to talk about Pen. I have just one complaint about My Time at Sandrock, and it's a big one. You created one of the funniest, most memorable, over-the-top characters in the game... and then you didn't give him a proper romance arc! Pen has so much personality that it feels like there's an entire story left untold. I kept hoping there would be a chance to flirt with him, watch him grow as a character, build a real relationship, and maybe even marry him. Instead, I was left thinking, "Wait... that's it?" I know creating new content isn't easy, but if there was ever a character who deserves a dedicated romance storyline, it's Pen. I'd buy that DLC in a heartbeat. Please consider giving him his own romantic story someday. I know I'm not the only player who wants to see what a full Pen romance could look like. Until then... I'll keep hoping. #JusticeForPen <3
MTAS my beloved. I've played this game completely through 4 separate times. FANTASTIC worldbuilding, extremely colorful and entertaining cast of townies, and the relationship mechanics are, while they are a liiiittle buggy and repetitive (mainly the play dates), leagues ahead of what they were in Portia and also a lot more in depth than mechanics I've seen in other "farming sim" type games. Also idk what Pathea was on when they decided to give a "farming sim" type game a plot THIS wild but I am SO glad they did. If I could stay in the intrigue of Parts 1 and 2 for the entire game, I would. I've played Portia, and while I'm glad I got to see the game that came before this, I'm never going to play that game again. Sandrock, however? I will absolutely play this again eventually. If you are concerned about this game because you played Portia and got burned by the soul crushing grind in that title, don't worry! That grind is NOT in Sandrock and there's a much stronger emphasis on characters and story. Really, really excellent game. Easily in the top 5 of "farming sim" type games for me. My one criticism: You are funneled into a select handful of townies for the romance options and they have WAY more content than the others. Some townies have no romance content at all, despite being romanceable. Thankfully Logan ended up being the perfect option for my Builder by far, but it does make me REALLY sad that I'm almost warned off of romancing characters like Qi just because of the lack of romance content. In future installments, I would much prefer a focus on quality rather than quantity and a more balanced pool of romance candidates so I don't feel like some of the options aren't actually options at all.
So... I love this game. The characters, the music, just it's overall... vibe? The story is super fun as well. It feels unfinished in some ways. Like the last little bit of polish that wanted to be added, just isn't there. It hasn't impacted my gameplay *too much*, though. That's why I can really recommend this game to anyone that loves a chill game with still enough of a story to be guided through and towards something you can discover. Like a red thread that guides you the way, but doesn't force you to interact with it immedietly (except comissions, those are times and they do stress me out LOL).
Love this game. Portia was great but this is fantastic, can't wait for Evershine!
This came along the humble bundle I bought with persona 5 royal and surprisingly enough, I have more hours here than the main game I bought the bundle for lmao
