Story of Seasons Grand Bazaar 

 

Harvest Moon Grand Bazaar was our most favorite Harvest Moon. Would XSeed Games and Marvelous USA keep the series safe for families? Sadly the answer to that is no. Story of Seasons Grand Bazaar forces players to pick a pronoun. Why is that mental illness being encouraged? I find it interesting that people who claim they just want the choice have no problem forcing their one choice on us. I tried to bypass it and Story of Seasons Grand Bazaar would not let me. Extremely rude and hateful of them.

The controversial and divisive topics do not end there in Story of Seasons Grand Bazaar. There is also the issue of rebellion against God and redefining marriage in Story of Seasons Grand Bazaar. Sexual deviancy is encouraged in Story of Seasons Grand Bazaar. The Nintendo DS version of this game contained two ESRB descriptors - Comic Mischief, and Use of Alcohol. Both issues are still in Story of Seasons Grand Bazaar, yet the ESRB failed to list it on the case.

Story of Seasons Grand Bazaar also contains lack of attire, enticement to lust, and those nature sprites. They have really corny things to say. We grow crops, take care of livestock, mine, and build relationships in Story of Seasons Grand Bazaar. There are different festivals to get involved with as well. The main goal of Story of Seasons Grand Bazaar is to grow the Bazaar. Once a week we sell items at this bazaar and make all kinds of money.

There are quests to perform for different characters in Story of Seasons Grand Bazaar. Some of them are to get more stalls at the bazaar. We need to grow the bazaar since the overseeing committee is watching. They even send a representative at one point. There is a bit of mystery to uncover in terms of what happened with the last farmer. We also slowly unlock additional areas in Story of Seasons Grand Bazaar.

The core gameplay mechanic in Story of Seasons Grand Bazaar is to use the windmill once it is unlocked. This is how we craft a great many items. Say we need some chicken feed. We get the right item, put it in the windmill and tell it we want chicken feed. The more complex the item the more other items we need on our character. It really annoyed me to not be able to pick from my storage bin. Animals will love us as long as we take care of them daily.

I must admit I am pretty disappointed with Story of Seasons Grand Bazaar. There are offensive and controversial things that should have not been added to this game. Obviously this game developer wants less sales than they would have gotten. I enjoy the farming, collecting, and questing in Story of Seasons Grand Bazaar. I also enjoyed the selling. The bazaar is where we can really upgrade things like our bag.
