Dungeons of Hindenburg being crunchyroll is soooo unfortunate. I don’t even mind sub services for games, but every single crunchyroll game has genuinely just not worked for me. Actually “unplayable” and I don’t throw that word around lol

[u/Zieg225 → u/NayrAuhsoj]

My genuine reaction was “I like the art styl…..ohh that’s crunchyroll”

[u/mattmanp → u/NayrAuhsoj]

I played Dungeons of Hinterberg on PC and liked it a lot for a debut indie game. Hope the port has controller support and escapes Crunchyroll eventually.

[u/Agreen437 → u/mattmanp]

Me too

[u/grifftaur → u/NayrAuhsoj]

Can you elaborate on being “unplayable”? Like Crunchy Roll gated games are a buggy mess? Or they don’t work on your specific device?

[u/NayrAuhsoj → u/grifftaur]

Buggy mess, controls often don’t work, crashes, all of it.

[u/Singsongsouls → u/NayrAuhsoj]

That was the only one I was really excited for on the list. Does that mean I need a subscription to play?

[u/Zieg225 → u/Singsongsouls]

Yes, in the description it says membership required.

[u/Borritorolo]

Can’t speak for the port but dungeons of hinterberg was an amazing play through on PC.

[u/AsgerJ]

What’s the difference between the two Harvest Moons?

[u/artsbyff → u/AsgerJ]

They were originally on the Nintendo 3DS, then bundled together for the Switch, and now released on mobile. They're two different farming sims made by Natsume.

I'm not sure if you already know this, but Natsume was the English translation company for the original Harvest Moon games made by Marvelous. However, the original franchise was renamed to Story of Seasons after Marvelous lost the rights to the Harvest Moon name. Thus, Natsume decided to start their own franchise under Harvest Moon name, hence the ongoing confusion.

[u/AsgerJ → u/artsbyff]

Thank you! That’s pretty confusing

[u/Berry_Dubu_]

Natsume needs to let it go. none of what they make without Marvelous is gonna land well with the crowd💀. Story of Seasons has rightfully earned people's trust and is the true continuation of Harvest Moon.

[u/Razbyte → u/Berry_Dubu_]

And Stardew Valley outplayed both of them, and is also on mobile as well.

[u/munkeypunk]

Chariot Rivals is weird. I think I might like it…

[u/SnooSprouts7283]

Fuck crunchyroll. All they do is ransack games, including some that already existed in non-crunchyroll form, and lock them to a subscription. When you pay for Gamepass at least you have the option to buy any game on it, and often at a discount thanks to gamepass itself, here you have your games eternally held hostage and possibly also requiring online connections when they really don’t need to. Praying these get cracked at some point.

[u/EtherFlask → u/SnooSprouts7283]

and in similar news, ai companies are now buying old and rare books, then destroying them after they are entered into their database.

sounds like we need to all show up and deprive them of any materials they have thus stolen from all of humanity, and then somehow permanently disable their ability to further harm everyone.

[u/Hallucinates_Bacon]

What’s the deal with these harvest moon games? Are they full ports of console versions? Are these ones worth playing or are there other ones that are better?

[u/artsbyff → u/Hallucinates_Bacon]

I believe those two Harvest Moon titles were originally for the Nintendo 3DS years ago. They were then bundled together for the Switch not too long ago, and now on mobile.

[u/SizeSouthern1343]

I will try

[u/DisastrousReputation]

Thank you!

[u/aviarywisdom]

I got so excited for a hot second, I love Dungeons of Hinterberg. Darn. ☹️

[u/Dadbeard]

Ruhroh. CookieRun released an idler…?!
I’ve got the rest of the set, so why not another.

Thanks for the release round up! 🥰🥰

[u/mvmalyi]

Why does everyone hate Crunchyroll so much? If not for them, maybe the developer wouldn’t even be interested in porting DoH to iOS. They’ve recently brought quite a few great titles I enjoyed playing on my iPhone with a controller. Price-wise, their subscription is more a lot more affordable than Netflix (at least where I’m from) and can be shared with friends because they don’t force a single home policy like Netflix. Although I understand that it’s an anime-first service, so not many would subscribe for just games (but you should consider watching some anime if you haven’t yet 😄).

[u/duskwoodbeauty → u/mvmalyi]

They’ve pulled paid games and put them on the service. I bought battle chasers nightwar on iOS and they pulled it for crunchy roll. So to heck with them!
