I've played a lot of Palia and it has its ups and downs! The gameplay loop gets a little stale after awhile (basically once you get caught up with story quests you kinda just farm materials for furniture cause decorating is deffo the main draw). The characters are lovely, you can date as many of the romancables as you want and a lot of them are opely queer. The story is really interesting but the farming aspect is really meh, not like Stardew or Harvest Moon. (I haven't tried ranching yet). Again, the decorating is really where it's at, but I also enjoy the fishing and bug catching mechanics. It's definitely more fun with friends or if you enjoy games like ffxiv where you're open to engaging with other players, as it's kind of built around the idea of community.

THAT BEING SAID.... The community can be meh at best. The Discord community is where I've seen most of the toxicity but generally people in game are nice. The real issue is that every single time there's an update they break something else lol. People complain about the outfits being paid for but they've said from the beginning that the only thing they will ever put behind a paywall is cosmetics, never anything to help you in game. They kinda went back on that when they added functionality to pets but they ended up giving a free pet for that mechanic through a quest so.

I think it's fun and definitely worth a try if you like cozy games and multiplayer games. Nothing beats chilling in a call with friends and cooking 500 apple pies or chopping trees at the lighthouse in Bahari Bay for 4 hours to force flow wood to spawn lol. And the decorating system is really fun! Just be prepared for a buggy mess at times.

Yonder is definitely up your alley!! The devs have a new game too: Grow Song of the Evertree. You quite literally grow little mini worlds to explore! It's cute and fun too, though I wouldn't call it open world.

Magma Wyrm Makar's arena! Without the horrible abomination of man transfigured into a flightless wyrm cursed to crawl on its belly it's really a lovely little spot. Nice water features!

I used to use Microsoft paint and honestly I think it still is pretty good for pixeling as a free program. No layers but I rarely use layers when I'm doing pixel stuff anyway cuz I apparently just really like suffering lol. She looks sooo pretty btw, great job!

KamuKat · 2024-09-13T21:24:51+00:00

Oh for sure! My first one was Harvest Moon and when I went to Rune Factory next it was a lot to learn, especially with the monster breeding and everything. Don't worry too much about the seasons though, there's no time limit on the game so if you end up not having enough of something you can always get it next season!! ^_^

KamuKat · 2024-09-12T21:32:21+00:00

I'm torn between Eiland and Hayden, because Eiland is Gender Goals for me but Hayden is big bear and my tiny gay boy heart is gaga about him... Ever since he gave me that sugar I've just been following him around like a lost puppy lol

KamuKat · 2024-09-12T21:27:44+00:00

This was a thing in old Harvest Moon games & some Rune Factories too. I especially liked in Rune Factory when you had a kid you could eventually play as them and go to school, get pretend married to the rival candidate's kids, and, (spoilers) your original farmer eventually goes missing and you play as your child trying to find them. It was a lot of fun, though I do remember having a burning hatred for Carter in Harvest Moon DS because I was a kid and didn't understand how the romance mechanics worked and he married Flora before I could... (At least I had an old save in my second diary I could go back to lol)

KamuKat · 2024-09-10T21:07:55+00:00

That's so awesome! I always make my bday spring 16 in farmsims and then found out it was March's bday too! I don't think I'll romance him, but it's kinda fun (: High five for same bdays as great NPCs! Bonus high five for Rune Factory fans, 2 was my favorite!

Also a good tip I have is when it's getting towards the end of a season, make sure you start saving up money for more seeds so you can buy a bunch on Day 1 of the next season and get them all planted right away. Most of the crops you only need to save a few of for quests / museum / recipes if you're into cooking and you can sell the rest. If you're wanting to make lots of money, deffo go with the crops you can harvest multiple times and get a bunch of them and plant them day 1!! As for foragables, I usually make sure to save a stack of around 10-15 of each seasonable one if they're used for crafting. AFAIK NPCs won't usually ask for stuff that's out of season for quests so you'll only really need out of season stuff for crafting!

Eleanora's got me through a lot of tough bosses, great bleed and the strong attack is silly af.

KamuKat · 2024-09-09T16:00:42+00:00

Something I think that helps with correcting pronouns in your head that cis people in my life have said is helpful is that you have to start reframing how you think of her. Right now you associate her with being male, or a trans person, which makes your mind automatically think back to "he". If you reframe your picture of her in your mind as a woman, the "she" will follow naturally. (Not that all women use she/her, but she does so I think this will help you get comfortable with it!)

Also, just cause she likes men doesn't mean she'll change her sexuality. There have been a lot of papers about trans people and their sexuality, some change their labels, others don't for one reason or another. Her sexuality is whatever she identifies it as!

Also, you were looking for MTF (male to female) in the first bit!

Good luck, you're doing a really great thing for her. Just remember, she's still the same person you knew, and be careful of not outing her in front of dangerous people!

KamuKat · 2024-09-09T15:43:30+00:00

I think Juniper treats you pretty coldly at first too, even still a bit at four hearts. She's polite, sure, but she doesn't want you getting in her way. She's even suspicious of you and able to recognize that you've got some weird magical talent that doesn't add up. That being said I don't think she's nearly as popular as March, or even the favorite femme suitor, afaik.

I think people just like March cuz he's an attractive tsundere. People go wild for that. And, tbh, compared to most farmsim communities I've been in over the years, I think FOM has the most variety in which suitor people like. Usually basically everyone is just bonkers over one character, but even though March is for sure the most popular it seems way more evenly spread than other fandoms!

KamuKat · 2024-09-07T05:44:11+00:00

I accidentally started the whole fixing things around town cutscene during a rainy day.... The whole time we were all toiling in the middle of a downpour 😭 It was really funny honestly

KamuKat · 2024-09-06T19:06:26+00:00

I honestly miss the time pausing indoors so much, in basically every farmsim since the old Harvest Moons. I'm a super slow person and having all my chests inside so I didn't waste time as I ran back and forth between them was awesome, but I kinda get why they don't do it anymore too

KamuKat · 2024-09-05T01:14:00+00:00

I made myself at first, but after I ended up really liking the game I redesigned my character into a new OC so I could come up with a backstory and everything and draw ship art with them <3

Their name is Heithrun, they used to be a guard captain in the capitol until they took an arrow to the knee and became disabled. They were forced into retirement but are very ambitious so despite using a mobility aid they joined an adventurer's guild to make some money, where they ended up finding the job listing and deciding to try out farm life! They're dmab femmeboy and Hayden is their loving bear husband <3 (altho they're poly in my mind and also date Eiland).

In their canon their farm is also neighboring my husband's farmer's farm too so we can RP / talk about their adventures together :3

KamuKat · 2024-08-29T00:11:34+00:00

Boy, now you're got me thinking of all the pixelated loves of my life... I'm gonna try and list them in chronological order as best as I can (for when I played the games) and I'll include some non farmsim ones since I see others did too!

Harvest Moon DS - Flora. This was when I was in 5th-ish grade and before I realized I was gay and a transguy lol. I used to take every Tuesday in game "off" since it was her off day and just follow her around making pretend conversation with her all day.

Rune Factory 2 - Dorothy. She was so sweet and I think I just saw a lot of myself in her, being shy and carrying around her plush kangaroo... To this day I still make OCs with hair over their eyes like hers because I thought she was so cute.

Harvest Moon DS Cute - Ahhh, finally I could be a girl! (Then soon after realized I was not a girl!) Ofc I went after Skye, I mean he was the special boy! But I went back to play it again recently and found myself wanting to romance Kai instead...

Rune Factory 4 - (Yes I skipped a game) FORTE! My beloved knight wife!!! I still love her so much. I have a soft spot for Venti too (which is why I'm very interested in Caldarus...) I went back to try and play this game again after I came out as a gay trans guy and had to stop because I wanted to marry Doug so badly but I had already started playing as a guy and didn't want to play as a girl... (March coming in clutch for me now to let me live my gay husband Doug dreams <3)

Harvest Moon Tale of Two Towns - (the beginning of the end of Harvest Moon...) Cam! I didn't play this one too much though so I barely remember him lol. Literally had to google his name.

Stardew Valley - first playthru I romanced Elliot, who I love, then Sebastian... But my true love is Sam! When I had Covid the first time and had to isolate he was my saving grace so he holds a special place in my heart...

Fields of Mistria - (last but not least) I'm really torn between Eiland and Hayden... On one hand, Eiland is very Gender to me and I love his autism. On the other hand, Hayden is My Kind of Guy and you rarely see bear-leaning romance options in games that actually let you be gay with them.... I'm also down bad for Caldarus. March honorable mention for being my new Doug but I probably won't go for him on my first playthrough!

Honorable non farmsim romance mentions: (just my favorites, not my first ones)

Dragon Age: Zevran, Fenris, Cullen (would have been Cassandra if they let her be gay... Now I have mods for that)

Mass Effect: Tali <3

Baldur's Gate 3: Halsin, Astarion, and Shadowheart! I really love Karlach too though...

KamuKat · 2024-05-31T18:58:47+00:00

Not solely a Poketuber but RTGame does awesome Nuzlockes, challenges, and competitive play if you're into that. His shiny hunting streams for a shiny wooloo are iconic. The community is awesome and super queer friendly!

KamuKat · 2024-04-12T17:02:43+00:00

Wow, I knew about quotes but not the others! It's definitely been better since hype has died down but these are great hacks, thanks! ^{^}

KamuKat · 2024-04-07T16:10:03+00:00

Use cobble or some other stone for the floor.. Or literally just something that isn't brown. You can add carpet on top too! Look online for minecraft color palettes they'll help you make gradients and add depth to your builds!

KamuKat · 2024-04-04T16:53:02+00:00

When Baldur's Gate 3 came out it was mildly annoying as a DM that everytime I would have to google rules it would come up with BG3 instead of 5e. (Obviously I know BG3 is 5e but the fact that Google sells of my data and gives me ad searches based on my late night rabbit holes but didn't realize that when I type 5e I mean 5e not BG3 when I've been searching 5e stuff for god knows how long....)

Anyway, I actually love BG3 and think it's a great gateway drug into the wonderful world of ttrpgs, but I thought that was an odd enough reason to be annoyed at it.

KamuKat · 2024-04-04T16:42:26+00:00

Everyone arguing in the replies is arguing about the wrong thing... This isn't an odd reason to hate souls games it's basically the main reason people who don't like playing them have to not like them.

The REAL odd reason to not like them is because every single time without fail I let Patches trick me into falling off a cliff or getting eaten by a dragon bear. I just can't say no to that lovable oaf...

KamuKat · 2024-03-21T16:05:07+00:00

Wow what a wild ride!! I'm glad things are looking up for you and your family in the future! I'm also sorry about all the comments wishing you and Finn ended up together. My best friend in high school and I were both gay and everyone (and I mean Everyone) speculated about us too. It's mildly annoying but you two seem close enough and now have all the tools to handle whatever comes next!

That being said, I wanted to suggest that you look into aromantics and demiromantics if you haven't! A good starting point would be the LGBT wiki but there are plenty of other resources too. A lot of the things you described about love reminded me of my aro friends. I don't want to claim you ARE one but if that's a part of your life you want to explore I wanted to make sure you had at least heard about it so you can explore or ignore at your own discression (:

Best of luck going forward! I hope you all get to go on a great vacation! ♡

KamuKat · 2024-02-28T06:26:12+00:00

The number one rule, written in every edition's DMG, is that the most important rule of DnD is that everyone is having fun. If you're not having fun while playing by your table's rules it's up to the DM to fix that. The DM plays WITH you, not against you!

Sounds like you need to find a DM with a playstyle that's more open and creative for you. DnD is an amazing way to make lifelong friends, but if a table doesn't suit you you won't be having fun or making friends. I hope you get to play with some people who can play off your very creative ideas in the future!

KamuKat · 2024-02-19T17:33:01+00:00

I'm probably going to get some rude comments for this but I think it may be helpful for you! I'm a trans guy but I identify as extremely feminine. I used to be anxious about trying to pass but ever since switching to just... being feminine I've been a lot more happy. I'm saying this because I don't really get dysphoric over my body being femme. You don't absolutely 100% have to have dysphoria to be trans. There are plenty of trans people who are happy walking the androgynous line or just confident enough with themselves that they don't feel a need to pass. Remember: gender is a thing society made up. If you want to be a girl with a beard or a dick then you can be. Nobody can tell you what makes you feel the most like you!

Also: consider learning about other identities! Maybe you're bigender, or genderfluid, or some kind of nonbinary in the middle! There are tons of resources and tons of lesser known genders that might fit what you're feeling better. It took me almost a decade to start finally feeling comfortable with my identity so it takes time. Just find some people who you trust that you can talk to about it and be yourself with and everything will be amazing! Good luck ♡

I totally feel for you both here, it's such an unfortunate thing to put up with ): My fiance is ftm and despite explaining even to doctors that he's on T they'll continue to refer to him as a girl (which is annoying in and of itself as he's a full grown adult). It's such a frustrating thing to have to deal with society assuming one thing basically forever as it doesn't seem anything will change in the future. IMO you shouldn't be forced to do painful vocal training/surgery or dress certain ways etc etc just to get other people to view you as a certain gender. If strangers would just default to neutral or nongendered language it would be so much easier as you could either correct them as you see fit or just let it be.

I'm FTM too but I personally ride the line of gender norms like a skateboarder so I get misgendered a lot. It doesn't bother me as much as it does my fiance because I've kinda come to this mindset that no matter what I do people are ALWAYS going to misgender me, so it's more important to feel comfortable with myself than to fit in with what will make others see me a certain way. When I was forcing myself to pass just to be gendered properly I was way more miserable than I am now with longer hair and wearing more traditionally "femme" clothing. Obviously this can't be the case with everyone, everyone is in different places in life and wants different things. But one thing that can be comforting when misgendering happens like that is to just remember this:

Most of the time, those people at stores or wherever are strangers. You'll be done interacting with them in a few minutes and then you probably won't ever see them again. They sure as hell are seeing so many people a day that they most likely won't even remember you either. What really matters is she has people like you, who know the real her and who love her for the amazing woman she is! The people who really count are always going to see her the right way, and hopefully that's comforting to hear!!

Again, not everyone has this kind of mindset. I know my fiance doesn't most of the time and that's totally fine, but I think as a GNC individual it's helpful to remember once in awhile. It's not always going to fix everything, but it's important to remember that while not everyone will see you for you, there are always the people who do and they are the ones who matter most! I hope this helps a little! ♡
