Farming is tedious because there's no way to quickly cycle through tools like in Friends of Mineral Town. The music loop resets every time you enter another screen, which is incredibly annoying.

It's dissapointing that the world isn't interconnected like in FOMT. It feels less immersive to be selecting each location from a menu screen. Other Gameboy games like Link's Awakening didn't have this problem, so there's no excuse here.

The game ends after you get married, but only if you're a girl. Natsume has always been that kind of company.

It's easy to forget just how bad most Harvest Moon games are in comparison to Stardew Valley. This IP has rarely been given the level of care it deserves.
