Voice chat already exists in HM: Island of Happiness, so this isn't new for a Harvest Moon game.

It sounds like if they're using the same main characters and adding a few things, this is just Kimi To Sodatsu Shima version 2, much like how there was two versions of "Magical Melody" in Japan.
I should have put the "I" in....

I did not know that.

That being said, you would most likely have to go through a long Friend Code process to make sure that some idiot doesn't start swearing at you.

IGN says they'll return.

So this game is just a beefed up version of the last game huh? A bit of a waste if the last game didn't have a game killing glitch like MM.

We don't know that for sure, but it's a good possiblility considering what's been done in the past.

It might even be a direct sequal. Now THAT would be okay.

Hmm.... I don't think any HM game is a waste~

But yes. As previous games show, Marvelous is drawing a blank. Running out of ideas. Rune factory and Innocent life are just a leg for the HM games to stand on.

They are repeating games, and instead of being able to play as either a boy or girl, like Island, FoMT and AWL have been milked dry with the two games that followed them, the one where you can play as a girl, but not a boy. Two games instead of one, it saves them time.

I wouldn't live to see the day Marvelous do that. They need like....Online, like create your own character, mingle with others game. You could marry an actual person, and stay at your farm, but be able to go to there farm instantly. Plus chat.

That's apparently where they are going with the new "online" game. Part of the base for HM is to interact with other townspeople, but you can only go so far with that in game before you've done it all.

If we could all visit eachother, that would be a blast! Imagine being able to randomly visit someones farm and hang out.

I'm not sure about the marriage part. That can get very... weird.

My local Japanese bookstore gets some issues of Famitsu, but usually quite a bit late.

The new artwork of Mark (Max is his name in the English version of Island, apparently) and Chelsea is really cute. Nothing we don't know has been posted on the page so... We wait?

There are scans out too, but they're in Chinese and I can't read them.

Famitsu 984, page 96 (Chinese)
Famitsu 984, page 97 (Chinese)

The Japanese ones will probably surface in a little bit.

*cough*
Seriously. Have you NOT played the older games and Innocent Life.

As for this game...Huh I guess Chelsea and Mark are pretty popular if their returning as main characters(Like Jack and Claire/Jill/The Blond One/The Only One I like).

And I have nothing more to say. Not much info to go on.
