There was an event that occurs during one of your yearly visits to the pond with the sprites where the goddess talks to you.She comes back sometime within the hundred years that passed between this game and DS. She has just left to live in another pond, and being the Jerkass she is she doesn't respond or say anything. Fridge Brilliance: It's the Mineral Town Goddess.Their deity has seemingly abandoned them. The sprites think she might be sleeping, but they don't know. But the Harvest Goddess in this game isn't here. Fridge Horror: It's pretty normal in Harvest Moon games for the Harvest Goddess to be indisposed, such as being turned into a statue or something and you need to rescue her.Not to mention that they can have their own personality depending on who you married and how you raised them. Unlike previous and some later titles, your child can grow up past a toddler and finish as an adult. Your child, moreover the mechanics surrounding them.Some players were disappointed that you were not able to marry her even in Special Edition. Maybe it was a bad trip from eating the mushrooms by the tree. The situation is never delved further and you are left alone in the forest afterwards. Suddenly it cuts to the butler out in the forest charging up and attacking the local yeti, apparently trying to steal the little lock of hair it has on its head to be made into a paintbrush. Lumina then asks her butler in privacy to do her a favor. One night Van might visit Romana's house and an event comes up where he tries to purchase a painting on her wall, she refuses and it is revealed that Lumina painted it. Big-Lipped Alligator Moment: A really really weird moment.Some find them to be ugly compared to the ones in other games, while others appreciate there's more diversity and not just a bunch of pretty boys like the other games.

The designs of Forget-Me-Not Valley bachelors in general are very polarizing.Base-Breaking Character: Is Rock a lazy moron or does he have Hidden Depths? Him being Lumina's love interest, and the way he treats her in their Heart Events, only adds the debate.The game lacks seasonal tracks, or really music at all besides your farm and during scenes, but makes up for it with records (especially Quiet Breeze). Awesome Music: Most of the soundtrack, as is standard for the series.Players who pursued Celia as Mark think differently of Marlin than those who pursued him as Pony.
