I believe the game looks great, and seeing that it's a vast world perhaps they had to sacrifice a little on the graphics department to improve the execution of the game (yes, yes. We know about the FPS drop in the sprinkler scene. Yet, the game is still in development and the trailer has been probably recorded from a virtual console or something of the sorts). But to some users here it is nearly not enough.
You guys are asking the sun and the moon from a game that is quite niche, and it can luckily overpass 500.000 copies in it's most popular game, worldwide. This ain't a million copies game like others, and it's not backed up by Nintendo like some big titles like BoTW, AC:NH, so on and so forth.
Heck, even games like Pokemon Sw/Sh (+18M copies sold, at 60$ + a DLC of 30$) from a multimillionaire company has been criticised for it's lacking graphics, FPS drop, awful online, lifeless and reused animations and many other reasons. If a game that big has lacking graphics, what can you expect from a more niche game that even some people in the Direct believed to be a copy of SDV + AC:NH? I guess that example can explain you how unknown it is.
Yeah, sure. SDV did good, but SDV got released at a time where indie games were going strong, plus being in the PC and having a low price helped it, alongside other promotions it got. SoS/HM could never dream to have the sales SDV has gotten, and yet some people keep on demanding, and demanding, and demanding when I believe they are doing their best to give the players a good experience.

When did the fandom become so entitled? I've been lurking here for a long time, and I always thought HM folks were understanding and they'd be like "Well, let's give it a try even if I'm not convinced!" or "It's still in development, let's have hope that the devs want to give us an enjoyable experience" but what I see is lots of "uwaaah, the graphics are "bad" and there are no portraits, uwaaah, not buying". This kind of attitude doesn't help the series. If it's own fanbase doesn't give it a chance, who is gonna do it?

Putting aside her not being your actual grandmother, I have two other reasons why, for me, she doesn't count as being the grandma version of the grandpa-set-up of these games. There's also the fact that I never actually liked Eda. I didn't dislike her, either; I was just completely indifferent to her...I had no feeling like she was my character's grandma at all, whether the game wanted me to feel she was or not.

There's definitely a particular a grandma-left-me-her-farm plot I'd like to see, someday.

Not gonna be THIS time, though, obviously. They've been quite clear that it was gramps and his buds who pioneered Olive Town. Grandma has been nowhere in sight at all, yet, that I know of. Makes me curious, though. Gramps must've died a while ago, for his farm to have had time to grow into a wild forest. But does this mean either your mom or your dad (probably your dad) was born in Olive Town? How long did they live there? Did they have friends among the residents?

It probably won't matter, but I can never help but think about things like that.
