The variety here is good, but the quality leaves something to be desired. Dirk has matured since last we saw him, now working as the mail carrier for our titular towns. The Tale of Two Towns has six boys to offer, including returning Grand Bazaar boy Dirk. This is the first game on our list in which I can understand romancing more than a couple of the guys, and that’s worth some considerable points in this competition. The portrait art style is pretty cute, and the bachelors have distinct personalities in a way they hadn’t in previous games (it’s better writing). Tree of Tranquility is where the bachelors start to get good! We’ve got our variety-eight bachelors again-and the series’ graphics are on the up and up. The level of thought put into these gentlemen is nothing to be impressed by. Personalities are pretty average here, and also… the doctor is literally named Doctor. More Friends of Mineral Town gets points for variety-eight bachelors!-but also loses some for looks (what is happening with Cliff’s hair?) and general art style (I know it was the early 2000s, but that’s no excuse!). (Also: my love for the late-game boys is intense.) Rod, along with the return of Amir and introduction of Sanjay, almost redeem the others, but overall? Trash.įor those of you wondering why this game is so high on my list if I hate all the boys available to romance for the first half of the game, let me just say this: At least I have strong feelings. It’s also, let’s just say, less than ideal that it takes until Plan #3, arguably halfway through the game, to unlock a boy who’s actually nice to you. The over-abundance of icy-hearted rude boys really drags down the overall quality of boys to be found here.
#Story of seasons wonderful life bachelors series#
Allen is potentially the worst the series has ever written. These! Boys! Are! Trash! These are some bad boys! And not in a fun “rides a motorcycle and doesn’t take shit from anyone” way! We’re talking about some “stop insulting the person you’re dating” garbage-tier boys.
Ask your friends who played Harvest Moon: Cute who they married. There’s really only one good choice, and it’s Rock. I have thoughts about doing little “love interest power rankings” for various Harvest Moon games, and the bachelorettes in DS will be extremely difficult to sort after the initial “every single one is better than all of the bachelors.”īut despite my love, this isn’t about them this is about the bachelors. Which is such a shame, because the bachelorettes in the DS series are great! They’re all perfect. The writers had the capacity to create good love interests they just chose not to, at least where players interested in romancing guys were concerned.Ĭute is a little bit of a disaster on the bachelor front. The bachelors being awful is exacerbated by the fact that I really like the Wonderful Life bachelorettes! I’m a basic bitch, so you know I love Celia. The graphics are early 2000s ugly, and one of the three bachelors just completely sucks. While character personality is important, looks will also be factored in, as will variety of bachelors in a particular title.Īnother Wonderful Life features some of my least favorite bachelors from the DS era (I know this is chronologically earlier, but I played the DS series first, so that will always be my reference point). The only games being included are mainline games (so no Rune Factory) released in the U.S. This spans from More Friends of Mineral Town up to the Story of Seasons split. The rules are as follows: Only games I have familiarity with are up for ranking. With that in mind, I give you: Harvest Moon games ranked by their bachelors. Your bachelorettes are typically fine, if a little bland, but the bachelors tend to be… iffy, to say the least.
Harvest Moon’s love interests are, in general, pretty hit or miss.
