My experience with the “Harvest Moon” franchise, of which the “Rune Factory” franchise, and thus “Rune Factory Frontier” (“RFF”) are spin-offs, began way back in 1997 with the original game on the SNES. While I enjoyed that game and found it to have a rather addicting quality, once I had finished, I had no burning desire to repeat the experience. Therefore, I watched rather bemusedly as Natsume pumped out sequel after sequel and a variety of spin-offs.
My interest in “RFF” was largely piqued by recommendations from online peers who said that it added a much-needed infusion of new material to the Farming Sim by partially transforming it into an RPG. As an RPG fan, my pickings have been quite slim in the 7th Generation, making me much more inclined to try ANYTHING …
