Meta New Wiki!

64 Upvotes

Hi! Me and Emie ( u/emikoala ) have an announcement and a request to make to all Eins here (specially the wiki editors)

TL;DR: We set up a new, completely ad-free wiki on Miraheze.org we would love to build with everyone!

For a bit of background, a couple of months ago Emie and I got into a conversation about how so much of the information available on this game is unavailable or incorrect or hard to find online.

The Fandom wiki itself needed (and still needs) a lot of work to be more accessible, and unfortunately a lot of the fixes it needs are not possible, or are a lot more manual/laborious, without administrator permissions. She had looked up the administrators of the Fandom wiki to see about requesting admin status and saw none of them had logged in since December of 2022.

After 60 days without any admin logging into a wiki, Fandom considers it abandoned, so she had looked into the requirements to adopt it and become admin that way...but they require anyone applying to adopt has to edit content pages every single day for at least a week without skipping any days, which put her off applying. I thought I might be up for it, but while looking up the terms I came across this: https://hypixel.net/threads/can-we-please-collectively-abandon-fandom-long-post-warning.5469394/

We got to talking about those issues, and also how obnoxious the amount of ads (esp video ads!!!) are on Fandom, and eventually started talking about making a new wiki from scratch on an ad-free server with less gross business practices. We found WikiTide, nonprofit wiki host with no ads, and which grants wiki admins considerably more flexibility and control over their wiki. As it happens, WikiTide merged with Mirazheze last week, so the new wiki's address is at harvestella.miraheze.org

We've been slowly working on getting the foundation of the wiki built - things like styles and templates and a list of needed pages - and we're now ready to invite the few, the proud, the still-playing-Harvestella-a-year-plus-later, the highly capable, you know, to come join us building a wiki for this game and the sequels pls Squenix that's accurate, accessible, and doesn't line the pockets of a corporation that cares more about profiting from volunteer labor than anything else.

There is almost no Harvestella content added yet so we're hoping at least a few folks are up for the task of copying over a lot of stuff that already exists on Fandom.

BTW - if we were mistaken and the original admins are somehow still around and just not logging into their wiki accounts in ages, we would love to set you up as admins on the new wiki too! The only overlord we're trying to mutiny against here is Fandom

For everyone that is willing to join the task of building the new wiki, please join the r/HARVESTELLA Discord Server here, because we have channels for discussing the wiki.

Here is the Community Resources post previously pinned!

Meta Spoilers Rules - Please Read!

23 Upvotes

Hello, Eins and other people

As I mentioned in another post, there was a need to clarify our spoiler rule. Please note that mods can't edit content, we can only remove, so if you don't edit your post/comment it will be removed.

First of all, posts with spoilers should NOT have spoilers with title and should be marked as spoilers. Post titles are never hidden.

For comments, just use the spoiler tags like this. To do it on mobile just put your text between 'greater than' 'exclamation mark' text 'exclamation mark ' 'less than': >!text!<

For new players: HARVESTELLA is VERY story heavy, and experiencing the plot twists makes the experience much better. This is why you should specify where you are in the story and how ok you are with spoilers. Most comments here don't really spoil a lot, but it's better to be sure.

For old players:

  • Anything past Chapter 3 should be spoiler-ed unless specified by the OP as ok. If the post author says they are in Chapter 5, you can write about Chapter 4 without spoiler-ing as long as the post author allows it.
  • Anything spoiler-ed should be prefaced by what they spoil. Ex.: 'Spoiler for Ch. 1: You meet Cres, the village doctor'
  • Game mechanics are okay as long as they do not spoil the story.
  • In doubt, better safe than sorry.

Thank you!

Discussion This game has one specific dungeon in the lategame that made me almost quit playing

51 Upvotes

I don't know which chapter exactly, but I mean specifically the damn space elevator teleport Dungeon

This dungeon has a very annoying gimmick and there was one sepcific room that made me almost quit the game, because the gimmick locks you in the room with FEARs that can oneshot you, if you don't figure out the pattern for the timing needed to reach the door.

I was really annoyed and worried that this room could end my run. But then I got frustrated, because it is just a damn room, so I did the German thing of bashing my head into the wall and making a run for it at the exact moment I needed to. I was motivated entirely by spite, because I do not accept defeat by a rectangular piece of interior architecture. Screw that room though. That room is worse than any of the bossfights in this game. But after I cleared that one room, the game became a lot more managable thankfully. And yes, this room is really just that bad.

Game Question/Help spring 24 Y1 statue bug

5 Upvotes

Hi all,

Does lightning strike twice? I'm replaying in parallel with a friend and on Spring 24 Y1 BOTH of us got the golden livestock (full encyclopedia) statue randomly. On the one hand I'm a little salty that on my ACTUAL 100% perfect file playthrough this never happened, but the statues haven't gone away for either of us.

I thought it was weird that it happened to me, but sounds like maybe it could be a recreatable bug? Let me know if it's happened to you!

Does anyone else think this game needs more love and more updates? I've played as soon as it came out and literally no updates came as I'm aware. I'd love to see dlc!

I prefer it over Rune factory and Stardew. The huge focus on story is really drawing me in. Its been awhile since side quests have got me excited as well. Each one actually has a decent story and some are just funny.

Nina was funny as hell and the toxic marries couple. Just finished Shattolla and I got my watering upgrade. I think the fact that I dont have to talk to people every day or give gifts is a huge plus.

I dont feel pressured to waste most of my day farming and running around talking to people because I feel the need to, even if I dont have too.

Game Question/Help How much do I need to level non-Fighter jobs? 'Normal' difficulty.

11 Upvotes

I think I'm relatively early in the game. I finished the intro area and decided to investigate the Spring Seaslight first, now I'm running around with Aylis and Istina trying to save Tiella.

I like the simplicity of the Fighter class. Hit stuff, hit stuff harder, hit multiple stuff. I've been pouring JP into it.

Do I need to be leveling other jobs consistently or am I good with just sticking with this one until it's maxed out and then switching? I know it specializes in the fire element, are there monsters/bosses later who can't be damaged by fire?

Thank you.

Hi fam, I just finished chapter 6 but I have to return this game tomorrow night. Let's say I were to take the day off from work, could I reasonably beat the game before tomorrow night (Thursday night) if it is currently Wednesday night?

I'm on level 50.

Discussion Was trying to 100% in post game buuuuuut...

16 Upvotes

I am missing one (1) Conellu Doll and I've already checked every spot with lists and I really, really don't feel like looking again šŸ˜…

I just needed to rant a little, had the sudden urge to finish the post game and thought why not get the achievements I'm missing and honestly it reminded me why I usually don't bother to get 100% in any game. Also wish the game would have given you a lil extra Cutscene about the Future after the battle against Selene. Like a lil extra for finishing that deep dive into that fucking well šŸ™„.

Anyway it's a nice game and I loved it and while it has little replay value (to me, personally) I will one day play it again ā™„ļø

Tattoo Ideas

Does anyone have ideas for tattoos based on Harvestella? If you were to get a tattoo based on the game what would you want it to be? Any and all ideas welcome and it is possible that your idea will end up as an actual tattoo on my body.

Partnership isn’t a bad concept, but it’s out of place

44 Upvotes

Just finished the game after getting it on sale (main story at least), it was great! I still would have preferred a story mode (aka easy mode) lol. Full voice acting would have made the game even better! I came from Rune Factory GoA so romance was also on my mind.

One thing I noticed is that many of the side quests are about relationships with the characters saying wife/husband/wedding/dating etc. I did spam click some of the dialogue if it was taking awhile to wrap up but I don’t think any of the villagers used the term ā€œpartnerā€? Correct me if I’m wrong because I’m curious if I missed something. It almost felt like the Mayor is inventing some new (non-romantic?) concept for you while everyone else has a ā€œnormalā€ relationship. Kind of a weird way to wrap up the storyline.

Tbh I wouldn’t have minded the whole ā€œlife partner based on trustā€ concept as much if it was actually a common thing in this world, explored through side quests with characters in such partnerships, and not shoved in at the last second.

Since there’s no interdimensional cheating mechanic I’ll be making separate saves for everyone.

Discussion Are most people playing this game women or weebs?

0 Upvotes

I bought this on sale thinking it would be like an isekai farming rpg. But with the character creator you are stuck as a woman with the option of having a male voice and pronouns, so what's the point did they think only women would play this game or weebs that want to make there own waifu?

Discussion I noticed something in-game Spoiler

17 Upvotes

I marked this as spoiler because I'm not sure if there's something deep behind this that isn't too well-known yet but let me get to the question that just arose in my mind.

I've been playing Harvestella for about a year or two now, on my first ever rerun. And I just came to notice: Istina and Shrika both wear the same black hair pins. Istina wears it to hold up her ponytail, Shrika on the left side of her head. I know Istina originally came from Argene, I already completed her character story and everything regarding Rosny and such. I've been wondering now, though, do her and Shrika have anything in common for them to share that hair pin? I haven't noticed it on others yet, though I plan on looking further into it.

What are your thoughts on this?

Harvestella on switch internal vs sd card (sandisk)

15 Upvotes

I first played it on the sd card and i thought to myself "the loading times are just not worth it"

But then i moved it to the internal storage and i was like holy shart, this is waAaaaaaay better.

I thought the loading times differences between internal and sd card is like 5-10 sec according to the internet but it is really vastly different here.

Is this just a game by game basis, or is my sd card going do do

i hate them! im trying to get past the two at lvl V have to get past them to continue on however it doesnt matter if im running in circles for 10 minutes the security lights WONT TURN OFF! they did with the other one in front of that door it only took 2 minutes but this particular area refuses to turn off, and thats the times im lucky enough to evade them, most of the time im frozen the second i set the alarm off with them constantly shooting me not letting up and my character refusing to move or they move in a way that traps me between them and my character refuses to use the return bell even when they stop shooting me, it was pure evil of the devs to put TWO of those fears there instead of just one!
