VN - Ren'Py - Completed - Love Season: Farmer's Dreams [v2.0 Final+DLC] [MuseX]

I can only reiterate what so many before me wrote:

The game has an interesting premise and the setting is kinda cool (if you are into high fantasy/medieval etc.). It had some issues with locations as it looks too modern at times, but I know it is hard to just create whole new models or environments instead of using pre-existing pieces, so that's fine.

I also loved the idea
The (main) characters were fun and different and there were plenty of sex scenes that looked okay, even though it seems only a few were animated (and it kinda felt random which one were). Towards the end, way too many characters were introduced that had literally no reason to be there. All those sex scenes could have easily been done by already existing characters. This would also be a better way to introduce the harem route, as it was not really a point at any point that all of them were down with it. It feels like a missed oppurtunity to give the main characters more time to shine.

The ending was an absolute nose dive. Until chapter 8 and 9, the pacing felt fine, but for this kind of ending it was obviously way too slow. I understand the need to find an ending at some point, but it really did not work out at all. I think it would have been a bit less bad if they didn't decide to suddenly go all out "god vs god" in a way. The game would have needed at least another 10 chapters to come to this conclusion in a healthy pacing.

The AI renders were also kinda... meh. I personally am not 100% against it, I think there are interesting options to maybe improve this style of game with AI, but not how it was done here. Also it kinda felt like a slap in the face given the game suddenly went all in on it in just 1 chapter.

All in all, the game was okay-ish, but simply due to the ending I can not really recommend anyone to invest too much time in it.

This game has unavoidable sex scenes. Overall it would even be OK-ish. MC is a sad mommy boy, LIs are passable but quite annoying. The story isn't so engaging but... Hey! A complete game, right? Let's give it a shot. And then you get mandatory relationship with the most boring and irrelevat girl in the game, which, of course, is the kinda tsundere childwood friend. Now, that's original.

Really, keep little princesses out of this games.

Nothing to see here.

This game starts great but have a rushed end, a graphic changed to AI import and a story that goes nowhere.



Gameplay
I like the medieval vibe and the music chose for it. There is a general lack of anymation. The sex scenes is focus more on images and few moments are animated which felt like a lay down. The graphicsare changed toward the end of the game where it looks more AI generated which while succesfully implemented in the angel sex scene was a dissapointment for the other scenes.


Story
The story start sudden and we are introduced in a marvelous new world which really impressed me. We have some intrigue, plenty of characters to discover and keep us hooked...and it all ends up so badly unfortunetly. While the number of characters introduced initially it is good, we are presented to others later in the game that bring no value to the story and only offer a one time sex scene. Few of the girls start a story arc in the beginning but later on everything is tied on MC cock so those story are forgotten. There is no real ending and it is not quite clear for me if different actions from my side would have led to different girls outcome
- We are introduced to Sophie as MC crush and after that for the first half of the game we only fuck her mother. Also Sophie is the kind of hard nut to crack that might lead us to believe that she might go down on a corruption path...but nope, except one anal scene (which comes from nowhere) we get nothing.
- With Evelyn we start an exhibitionist route that pike at the window sex scene but in the next sex scene we come back to normal sex
- Having unprotected sex leads to...babies. This aspect does not reflect in the game in the period that happens after one year.
- There is a side story introduced later in the game when you find out that the donations are coming in because someone fucks the nuns and you are asked if you want to corrupt more girls to participate...that also go nowhere


Girls
Plenty of pretty girls. Nova is amazing: how she looks, how she is dressed and how she behave is all lovely. And beside her we have a lot of other hot girls to get invested in

It started good. Really good i loved the love triangle with MC Nina and her boyfriend and then suddenly midway it went wonky storywise and artwise i mean. Why in the fuck did the dev suddenly decide to use AI images!? Thats lazy. Also the story is all over the place after the village raid. What a wasted potential.

Sad ending for a VN that held a lot of promise early on. This was one of my favourites but then the MC started acting out of character, there were additional LIS (in the loosest sense) stuffed in, and the plot as a result went off the rails. Paired with the introduction of the use of AI CGs which made the characters look inconsistent and we're left with a middling shell of what could have been.

Excellent story, the renders are good. More animations would be good.

The reason I don't give it 5 stars is because of a fetish of mine, it would have been nice if in the scenes where there is anal sex or you can see anuses full of semen, the women's feet were also visible. And a footjob scene would have been great (although there are some footplay scenes)

I played the game in the old RPG version, it was nice and interesting, the Renpy version is also good, but some parts are very missing. The renderings of the characters are very good, but I was disappointed that the last part of the game was missing. If there will be a sequel to this game, I think it would be better and more beautiful to have it in RPG style.

Mixed bag: top notch renders, beautiful women and stable UI. Unfortuately, let down by the incoherent plot that cannot decide what it is.

A decent dev but too fickle, e.g. the NTR DLC is in Gallery but seems like nothing can push the girls away from MC's magic dick. Like others say, it's just a fuckfest by the end, with new girls added here and there.

started strong, but the quality of the latter chapters degrades to the point wherein the ending was absolutely trash, so the whole game isn't worth playing. LI just start acting out of character for no reason, and the use of ai cg in the latter chapters didn't help either

This game started off strong with a select number of females with different personalities and stories that could have gone down unique and interesting paths.
Instead what you get is more and more girls loaded into the story until you're literally walking between houses going from one scene to the next, sex scene after sex scene with no story, no character development, just visual after visual.
The story was completely butchered and if I feel totally let down after such a strong start.
After the invasion of the village is where it really takes a turn for the worst, it just got so lazy..

Honestly was really enjoying this for a long time, but not a big fan of how the ai cg looks around... Chapter 8 I believe it was? Overall a decent game though, as novel the choices we entertaining and scenes enjoyable.

None of your decisions affects the game, everyone fucks you no matter what and.. the dialogues that will lead you to sex is stupidly unrealistic. Only thing that's good in this game is the renders but idk.. watch porn instead of this bs, save your time.

I cant go higher then 2/5, with the only reason its a two is because of the good renders, good models and that the beginning was quite good for what it was back then.

And while I prefered this version over the RPG one (despite I enjoy RPG myself), I cant disagree with how stagneting and bad the "story" got the more years it took to "finish".

After playing it to it end from the beginning in the last day, I cant enjoy the game how much potential got wasted. From how instandly it ended, you would think its a rushed ending. And you would be right. Also the main reason why people prefered this over the RPG one, was that its been Harem focused. And while we get one, it was one of the dullest I saw in current years.

Not only you dont end up with all, not only half of the female cast vanish into thin air and dont come back, but also the ending was fully focused on NTR... yeah. Tho I must say most are avoidable, some are not since the excuse here would be "They are not the main LI so who cares?" Well, the dudes who followed this game for years obviously lol.

Anyway, the second biggest part is that it as I mentioned a very, harsh rushed ending. I wouldnt NOT recommand this game anymore. Only for science purposes on how NOT to end a game... except the whole reason was to milk your customer base aka Blizzard style.

I first played this game in early 2022. I had played the RPGM version in 2020 but didn't like it, and just didn't realize this was a visual novel game based on the RPGM game. This game started out quite good: a classic story, pretty girls, and some good sex scenes, but then... I don't know what happened. The story got too messy, the art style changed, the sex gravitated to more controversial kinks, and the gameplay/relationship-system fizzled away. If I had to guess, either the development team changed at some point, or the game started out with a good plan, and at some point, the dev decided to modify the plan to extend the story/game, but no real planning was ever done for the extension. The art style and rendering style totally changed in the later part of the game making the love interests all look similar. The ending was obviously rushed and it was a complete letdown. It could've been a 5-star game (or maybe a 5-star kinetic novel) if it had stayed consistent.

This game had true potential. The story had nice intrigue, the artwork was very beautiful, the decision of where to put choices and what choices was good and the sex scenes were very well made. Somewhere along the development, the story and characters became uninteresting and very chaotic , without adding any positive. Also the introduction of AI, has made it so without reading the name of the character, you cannot know who is present in the scene. If the game would start like that, I would give it maybe 2 stars more, but baiting the viewer and the people who want to help you like that, I don't find it ethical.

Honestly it's a shame .
The game started strong , even if it felt weird from the start to have a Good/corruption system in place that was barely even used and coming up .

The renders were good , the characters felt interesting , even the doofus pseudo rival Trevor that you pretend to befriend to increase girl points .

Then around chapter 5 , or rather starting chapter 6 , it all goes down the toilet . I'm guessing either internal issues or a general lack of interest happened . It devolved into a mess with bad renders , cheap porn sex scenes every minutes , a constant influx arrival of new useless characters that are barely designed , obviously smell of AI generation .

At chapter 8 i even stopped trying to follow the plot anymore , and just activated skip unseen scenes to just watch them at 3x speed and witness the generic AI girls invasion . A shame really .

Story 2/5
Started out alright, showed promiss by having a relationship system in place making you think you have choices in the game, but truth be told its an absolutly pointless system since girls are constantly forced on you, and it will always be a turn-off to have LIs you hate forced on you, game is also full of fake choices where no matter the pick it will be the same outcome, which make you wonder why guide has a green and white option when theres 0 diffrense.

Even when you pick every single bad choice with someone by going against the guide you still end up fucking them, picking corrupt or horror ends out with fucking the most ugly LI as well, its just none stop and i just hate forced LIs and fake choices so game is unplayable to me.

Also games turned into being a true mindless fuckfest game jumping from sex scene to sex scene late in game and still not animated ones.
Then they changed to AI characters which was a really shitty move since it just ruins what was lovely characters and makes a bad game even worse.

So to play this one you need to be into everything from young to old, small to huge tits, bitches to sweet girls, personaly i am nowhere near into everything, cant stand big tits making this game a constant turn-off.

Girls 3/5
As for the girls there is a good mix some ugly as fuck some very hot, so game did have potential if you had meaningfull choices as to relationships.

1/5
Animations? well it does have the tag as being animated but most like 95% of the sex scenes are not even picture to picture but just still images and dialogs, it really isent worthy of being called animated, i remember seeing like 3 small animations.

3/5 Music/effects
They are pretty decent.

Choices 0/5
They are just fake, meaningless and a broken relationship system that should never be there, also making any guide/walkthrough pointless.

Really supprised ratings are this high for what it is and with the lack of real choices and animations, i just dont get it.

This a good game with very good renders, the story is decent and it even has a twist or two. The characters are all different and unique. My only minor complain is that its hardly animated, hopefully this will improve in the future.

4/5

Huge Disappointment. This game used to be easily worth a 5 star rating, the stellar character designs, great plot with lots of amazing potential. Having played both Farmers Dream and Love Season, they were both great in their own way, good story along with good character development. The game has since gone downhill, it's like the Dev just rushed through this game and put it to an end, losing direction for the game and all. How do you even mess it up so badly? Also, I don't understand how Dev can take more than half a year for an update, and yet there's there's barely any content with each update and you find yourself having to wait months after months for another short update. Earlier episodes were such a joy to play, keeping you wanting more and more, as there seems to be so many things to learn about, but somewhere after that, its just sex scenes after scenes with almost zero story growth at all. Heck, even if its just mostly intimate scenes, its not even better than some of the scenes earlier on. Story writing and character development have both gone downhill. Moving to AI is also such a bad move, the character designs in the beginning were all so unique, beautiful and special, now they just look pretty generic.

Please, don't even bother trying this game at its current state. You'd love the beginning, only to find yourself massively disappointed at the end. A game with so much potential, yet got destroyed. Honestly, if Dev is just gonna push this kind of work out, please just pass this project on to someone else who is more passionate about the game, who actually cared more about it.

This used to be a 4.5 star game with 5 star potential - I would guess many of the newer 5* ratings are people who are just discovering the game and not realizing the story first started about 7 years ago. The first ~2/3 of the game content is good. That part of the game came over from Farmers Dreams when the developer converted it over to Love Season, everything since (past few years now) has gone down hill.

Presently, I do not think the game is worth playing outside of the first season, and only then if you dont mind an incomplete story. I do not see how this story arc will ever be finished given how long its been in development when it only finished the exposition in the last couple updates.

The amount of new content, after what was pulled over from FD, is fairly minimal considering its been several years. More unfortunate than the slowed development pace is that the quality has gone down substantially.

The earlier episodes were fairly polished, a few spelling errors here and there but nothing major. Now it is not only spelling errors, but the models are noticeably inconsistent (especially the Amanda character).

The writing quality has also gone down, and character development has been abandoned. Evelyn for instance in episodes 1-6 is written as a completely different character in the later episodes.

There are also too many new characters being introduced needlessly (i.e. Amanda character) at this point in development. If the overall story and main LI paths are not progressing, why are more and more new characters (not pertinent to the story) being added?
