Sun Haven

yes

Sun Haven is extremely fun. It's not really a farming game like Stardew--it's more like a classic rpg from the 2000's if you remember that era. The art reminds me of gaiaonline from back in the day. I've reached perfection on Stardew several times for reference and think it's a perfect game. Sun Haven is a different experience but still awesome. There's something so nostalgic and comforting and fun about the game mechanics. I've beat the game several times over back in 2023 and I'm now back to try the main content. Pros: it's fun not having a stamina bar. It's fun that you get to constantly unlock perks and feel progression in the game. It's fun that the only thing stopping you from winning is your own patience. The fishing minigame is fun and challenging but not stressful since you can try for the same fish over and over again. I like that you can adjust the length of the day. Sun Haven is one of the only cozy games actually trying to do something different from Stardew and its imitators. The style of the game is very fun, whimsical, and fantasy. It got my husband and daughter interested in playing more than Stardew's style. It feels RPG/Dungeons and Dragons. So much customization and decor and whimsy. They really have gone out of their way to let people express themselves however they want. It feels so freeing compared to other farm sims. The actual gameplay is super super fun. I like gathering resources and crafting things and making money and unlocking new cute pets and mounts. It feels like how RPG's were like before MMO's sucked all the fun out of the genre. It feels like you're playing an mmorpg from the 2000's and I love that. They have some fun special events that are super fun to experience the first time, like Wheedle on Day 3 or 4 (not sure which). The problem is that it's not so fun on recurrent playthroughs. I thought the writing for Wheedle was HILARIOUS though and one of the genuinely funny moments of the game. There are parts that are charming and unexpected. Cons: the writing is ♥♥♥♥. I actually read dialogue and quests in games--I actually read the books in Skyrim. Sun Haven is always torture. The characters are boring, talk too much, and have very uninteresting personalities. They're tedious and annoying and I'd never want to spend a second with ANY of them irl. Just terrible writing. The friendship system is just sucking up to each person and stoking their ego lol. It's SO boring and I wish I could skip past all of it. The game involves WAY WAY WAY too much clicking through boring dialogue. The art is ♥♥♥♥ lol. The character portraits are just bad with just uncanny anatomy. No one knows why they won't fix the portraits. You basically need a portrait mod to cope with how bad the art is. The ridiculous anatomy of the boobs, their weird/creepy expressions, pointlessly revealing clothes on these uncanny bizarre looking women, and the men are just, again, ugly/creepy/weird. Lucius is probably my favorite, but he only vaguely sort of has a personality--like the lacroix version of a himbo lol. It's just BARELY there. The game is great for roleplay/pretending youre in a new world, but the characters are so badly done that it makes you not want to interact with the town at all. The plot of the game is also tedious and boring and repetitive. It's tortuous having to unlock these different areas that really don't add complexity to the game--just more fish to fish, ore to mine, and more horribly boring dialogue and excruciatingly tedious questlines. You're just running around doing these long, drawn out fetch quests. Everyone is boring. There's no reason to care about ANYTHING because the dialogue is so flat and pedantic. Seriously, I haven't seen such bad character writing since amateur flash games. Which was fine, cuz they were amateur flash games. Sun Haven desperately needs a writing revamp. I wish there was a version of the game where you didn't have to do the main plot and didn't have to talk to anyone lol. It's WAY more fun to just play and level up your character and get money and decorate, etc. It genuinely feels like a chore to do quests for the main plotlines. Also, the game isn't balanced all the way through. I think the game is pretty fun as you're unlocking your skill trees, but you'll finish the skill trees far before you finish the plotline. Late game, there isn't much to do, and there's no reason to keep playing beyond cosmetics. So we start again, but then we have to deal with the annoying long drawn out cut scenes and quests that bore you to tears. But I have almost 250 hours in the game, so I really do like playing it, esp in multiplayer. If you treat it like an old school rpg and not a stardew clone, it's a great game. It's almost in a different genre from stardew because they deliver completely different experiences. I just cant say enough how awful the characters/writing is.

Для тех, кто любитель ферм, фэнтези и магии - очень хорошая игра. Здесь всегда есть чем заняться, различные персонажи, прокачка навыков (которая в процессе дает бонусы) и возможность строить свою ферму. Отдельный плюсик для меня - времена года, которые добавляют особую атмосферу

Good game...but I am having a black screen at the Gilded Inn near the elevator. Keep fading into a black screen and have not been able to finish drinks run quest. Tells me to go to the cafe but nothing happens. I do not want to start all over again due to this bug after how far I have gotten. Have tried fixing it multiple times and I am unable to go back before the mission to see if that fixes it.

A deep story rich farming sim with a romance tilt. Mechanics are well developed and pixel art is great. Definitely one of the best entries in the farming sim/life sim/stardew genre. Very impressed. Lots of controversy surrounding it though so feel free to research that before purchasing if you want to only support the most ethical developers.

很好，很喜欢。打上汉化模组后，对我来说这游戏最大的短板没了。 真要说不满的话，有个DLC，不死鸟还是火烈鸟来的，不在STEAM卖，想买，游戏里打不开。怒。
