I remember I was very excited about this game - combining Harvest Moon virtual life gameplay with RPG combat, etc.
I did have a lot of fun with it, but when I checked a faq briefly, I realized I was playing very slowly -- and probably would take a while to be "done" - always kept dying in the dungeons, etc.
It might be fun to pick this up again, but by this point a sequel on DS has already come out (which got a lower gamespot score than the original) and a Wii Rune Factory game is due out in March 2009 (along with a whole ton of other games.) So I"m not sure how this will work out.
