Spent all weekend on Stardew Valley, set up 2 different farms to play 2 different storylines. Despite the quite basic old SNES style graphics it is a good game. I have played more 'photo-realistic' games in the past and even bought them for the stunning graphics but the storyline was boring or the gameplay didn't really keep me going back.


There is actually kind a bit of depth in the characters in Stardew Valley and their dialogues and behaviours change as you befriend them and/or marry them.


Cos of the older style graphics and me having had a Super Nintendo when I was young and remembering spending hours on it, it's felt like a real trip down memory lane this weekend and I really enjoyed it


I also enjoyed Links Awakening and at first I didn't think I would after being spoilt (graphically) with BOTW!


What do you think is most important to you? do you go for the games with best graphics (most real-life looking) ... 3D but cutesy/cartoony.. or 'old-skool' style like Stardew Valley 2D top down??
Thanks for this!
