I hope they do too! Though I wouldn't really expect it. In M/FoMT, the town bgm was always the same regardless of season.

I was wondering if there was already a mountain or forage area that has been confirmed? So far I think only the towns and the farm have been featured

Maybe YouTube blocked users from the US? If that's where you're from. I'm from North America, but a bit north of the US, so maybe they by country? I'm on my laptop, using Windows 10, if that makes any difference. I don't know how the region thing works in the first place, or why they do it...
I agree that the environments look lively and fun. It makes me want to explore the game world, and that's an excellent feeling.

Hmmm... sounds like a probable IOS issue. I'm in the US and have no problem on Android. I even subscribed to Marvelous's Youtube channel.

Lol, great video! I love the fishing system in this game.

@Arcy: What system are you using to watch the videos? I'm in the US as well, they work fine on my tablet.

Just watched video clip! Doesn't look like the game is too laggy. The running animation is a little weird to me for some reason? I can't put my finger on why though

I've thought that too, about the running animation. It looks like the MC has one leg slightly longer than the other, kind of, but only for every third stride or so. There's a little jerk or stumble moment mixed in there...a sort of lurch or something. But I didn't notice it in this most recent video...it was in previous ones that it caught me. It looks really smooth most of the time, and then suddenly, a tiny little jerk in the motion, or something along those lines. It's really hard to describe without an example playing in front of me, lol.

Though I don't mind it or anything. I still think this game looks like I want it now rather than later. :D

I've noticed that, too, it looked like the Mc had trouble running or something.

M/FoMT have different 2 BGM (popuri farm+a few places which is i forgot where, and the town+mountain+our farm) they keep the BGM on popuri farm same regardless of season, but our farm+town+mountain have different BGM for each season anyway.

forage area is more likely possible because dessie pond+witchie ruins, as far as i know, there is a wild animal in lulucoco, and its peacock, correct me if im wrong, so wild area/forage area is possible

if you're having trouble with videos, try restarting it, doing a soft reset, or cutting the wifi and then reconnecting

(Again, since I did it last night when I first noticed the problem.) Did a hard reset of my device, the router as well, double checked my settings, and I'm still blocked from watching all the videos on that channel. Both through Safari and the YouTube app.

It is giving me the "This video is not available" message. It isn't that urgent to me as there isn't any new content on their channel, but we now know that troubleshooting isn't going to work for me against YouTube's recent and well-documeted crackdown on region-locking content.

Double post, but new tweet with clip! I'm embedding because watching from the Twitter app stretches the image to an unwatchable size. Feeling too lazy to futz with desktop mode or fetching the laptop right now.


That little popup does seem to be a "passerby comment" which is crazy to me, not sure if I've seen any game do this before? I'm sure at least one has... Mostly that kind of stuff is audible, with voice actors.

I wonder how repetitive the dialogue is. Adding that kind of thing can be annoying if there isn't a lot of variety.

wow so many villagers! Honestly however I feel a bit worried, with the inclusion of so many characters I hope most of them will be fleshed out and not flat and boring, or at least the marriage candidates.
