This game is a massive graphical update to previous Rune Factory games.
The characters and setting are beautiful, the Japanese and English va’s are all (IMHO) really well done, and, a big reason I bought this game at least, LGBTQ inclusion! This is the first Rune Factory game that lets you pursue a gay romance!
My current criticism is that (as of v 1.0.1) the game has some mildly noticeable lag in certain areas (like when panning camera over a densely object-packed area), other than that, beautiful.
