I absolutely adored the original Fantasy Life on 3DS. Loved Ever Oasis, too. For some reason, I always kinda viewed the two as a pair, even though they had nothing to do with each other.

Anyhow, I read a couple months ago that there's a new Fantasy Life game coming to Switch later this year, and it really got me looking forward to it. I'm a little worried that there hasn't really been much in the way of promotion for the title, but what I've seen looks promising.

Anyone else got this game on their radar?

Yeah, don't know anything about the original, but this one is on my radar. That being said, there are so many casual, "farming" games coming out these days, I am going to look at the reviews before making up my mind.

The original Fantasy Life had no farming. It was an action RPG with a large emphasis on goods gathering and equipment crafting… which is an even more crowded genre, now days. What sets it apart is that it is less about combat but crafting and gathering are core classes that you will want to level.

Interesting. That sounds fun. I still have Rune Factory 4 on pause though, maybe I should switch to it after finishing New Super Mario U. There are too many interesting games coming out in genre, which I am not getting because I haven't finished RF4.
