Welcome to Elderfield

我并不推荐喜欢玩诸如星露谷或亦或是牧场物语这类休闲种田为主的玩家入手这游戏，目前战斗方面给我的体验是相当糟糕的，就我个人认为这游戏最大的败笔就是这个回合制战斗，没有什么操作空间、没有对策，纯粹的玩数值，再加上debuff机制的滥用导致你在游戏中90%的时间身上都至少带着2个debuff，前期就会遇到大多数能连续动2-3回合的怪物（给你上debuff、吸血、多段伤害），你唯一能做的就是顶着一堆debuff祈祷你的攻击触发眩晕或者是闪避某一次攻击，然后很多装备都会以降低你的命中率来获取较高的属性，这就导致你的一次攻击落空会带来很严重的战损。如果你选择逃跑，首先要进行骰子判定，即使成功逃脱也是直接返回家中，并且重新刷新所有怪物。

不算本格种地游戏，战斗偏多 但手残也能玩，因为是那种回合制rpg+有暗雷，且还有致死量的检定要过，骰过有奖励 骰不过有惩罚(指永久掉属性点) 玩着还莫名有种能扔球抓变异村民的感觉 可惜扔不得 正常难度也挺费劲的，主要怪多+对面放个屁都能给我叠一身debuff+回复途径不多+怪会重生在固定路径把把掏我，前期种那点粮食全为了回血炫肚里了 目前感觉重心不在角色上，角色对话比较生硬，应该不止是翻译问题，但整体氛围是蛮有意思的，你的角色塑造有点无聊 但你的世界观补足了这点 原生小镇你赢了 总之喜欢玩rpg的话可以试试，毕竟种地要素就是个陪衬，要和镇上的人外打成一团真是惬意啊 谁不想每天睡着了就被人外爬床然后酣畅淋漓的过不去检定吃一屁股debuff吃得饱饱的呢🤫

On Steam Deck the Game run rly rly Terrible. It stutters constantly and I really want to warn everyone here not to buy it for the Steam Deck. It's really as good as unplayable,

营销的克苏鲁星露谷物语，里面这个战斗真的是让人难受的一批，哪怕是最简单的模式，打个2级的小怪还有来有回的，一路上全是怪，追着打，只喜欢种田解压的赶快绕道，他不会让你心静平和，只会让你血压升高。

this game has a lot of promise, and i'm going to keep playing in the hopes that it'll get some polish. the text is awful, there are so many typos, eg. "won't" is consistently misspelt as "wont," in the tutorial "I better take a bath" instead of "I'd better," and SO MUCH random capitalisation. just so sloppy and it really affects the overall experience. the news events are also very imbalanced, in the early game you'll end up fighting what feel like superbosses before you even have an upgraded weapon. locking these behind progress would feel a lot fairer. as for pros, the farming is much less tedious than in other pixelated games, the illustrations and music are nice and the general vibe of the game is really pleasant for such a saturated "cosy" genre as farming games. i would definitely recommend this if the text was proofread and edited

I don't really want to leave a bad review, because the game is enjoyable. It's just far too RNG heavy in ways that totally screw you over, and that's really not fun.

Do I recommend the game, yes, but not yet! the game concept is great, I love the mechanics and how challenging it is. It might not be for everyone and certainly on normal difficulty is not a cosy game haha so beware. I am having loads of issues though which which unfortunately makes the game unplayable at the moment, heavy stutter on movement, jerky movement, even the mouse indicator stutters when on menu, which is really annoying cause I love the game and all I want to do is play :( At this moment in time I tried everything, turning all VFX off has helped a bit and increasing camera smoothness to 100, the games is playable for about 20 min then my eyes get really tired from the stutter, tried RTSS cap to 60 (its not hooking to the game), my pc is completely capable of running the game as higher specs than recommended (windows 11). So at this point I am considering either a refund of wait for another update to see if the game is playable.

Interesting concept, but really bad execution. There's no depth or strategy to combat, just resource management. Which is making sure you have enough food for every single round. This is where farming sim comes in. Your food ingredients will generally come from your farm, and you need a ton of it. It's no exaggeration that you're pouring money down the drain with each boss fight. After all, you could have sold the crops for money instead. RNG. Every single aspect of this game heavily relies on RNG, which I'll point out the most problematic ones. Fishing, events and mining. There's a built-in luck system, but it's not very good, so these aspects remain annoying. Fishing and its mechanics are mind-numbling boring. Not only this, some quests demand specific high quality fish. The type of fish is completely RNG, the quality is also RNG, so you better fish 100+ times just to finish a singular quest. There is a levelling system to buff your chances of getting high quality fish, but it's really terrible. You could combine it with potion buffs, and your experience would still be miserable, watching paint dry would be more interesting than this. Lots of event outcomes are subjected to RNG, even the loot you get is RNG. If you're not satisfied, better wait one or two weeks, hoping that RNG is on your side, so the event repeats again. As for the food you wasted on the garbage loot? Well, better spend your money and grow more crops then. Mining is also really bad. Anything that requires metal demands copious amounts of ores. If you're lucky, a single mining trip will afford one upgrade to your tool. This doesn't include preserving barrels, kegs where each of them also demands outrageous amounts of metal. As for the mining mechanics, it's also not very good. Mining has a chance to cause bad outcomes, reducing your atk, def, hit chance, etc, potentially crippling your ability to keep exploring. Better retreat and try again. If that doesn't sound bad enough, mines only regenerate once a week. The setting was very interesting at first, but it slowly gets dulled out by the amount of grinding in this game. If you do plan to play, make sure it's running on GPU, else it will have less than 30 fps. Might be due to it being an RPGM, it sometimes use integrated graphics instead. TLDR: Extremely grindy, maybe consider playing it if you have a lot of time to spare.
