CheatCC says: "Rune Factory 2 is too similar to last year's Rune Factory. Even though the series feels like a huge departure for the Harvest Moon franchise as a whole, it would be nice to see it mature and develop further. The story, though very charming, bears one too many resemblances to last year's title, and a lot of the core mechanics and quests remain identical to those found in the original."
Given that it is a spin-off of Harvest Moon, it isn’t surprising that romance is a part of Rune Factory. But what may catch someone off guard is how much the games offer. These titles offer lots of people they can spend time with, some of them showing how many different kinds of species live in this fantasy world. They are people who are capable at performing certain jobs and surviving against monsters. Their storylines also can be quite engaging and fun. Essentially, they can go above and beyond.
