I covered the opening hours of an early build in <a href=_-62.html>my PC preview<\/a>, and since then have been playing the full retail release on both Nintendo Switch and Steam Deck for review. In a lot of ways, Rune Factory 3 Special feels like the perfect game to play not only after <a href=_-112.html>Rune Factory 4 Special<\/a>, but also as your first taste of this amazing series. If you&#8217;ve not gotten Rune Factory 4 Special yet, read my review of it on Switch <a href=_-113.html>here<\/a> and on PC <a href=_-114.html>here<\/a>. Having gotten into the series through Rune Factory 4 and then even enjoying Rune Factory 5 despite its issues, I was curious to see how Rune Factory 3 would feel. In my Rune Factory 3 Special Steam Deck and Switch review, I&#8217;m going to cover why this is worth your time as the perfect chilled out game in this busy release season despite the game&#8217;s few flaws.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=rune-factory-3-special-pc-review-48b14.html alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-55828\"

Rune Factory 3 has support for PlayStation button prompts as well as Xbox when I tried both controllers. There is no touch support on Steam Deck or Switch.

I know many people might not care about touchscreen support, but when the prior release had it, I found myself tapping to progress dialogue or move items out of habit in Rune Factory 3 Special only to be disappointed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The upscaled asset problem is something I got used to like I did with Rune Factory 4 Special, but it makes me hope Marvelous does better with its next Nintendo DS or 3DS game brought to modern platforms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=rune-factory-3-special-pc-review-88b14.html alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-55824\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ewwwfiles.themakoreactor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/rune-factory-3-special-pc-review-8-1024x576.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/ewwwfiles.themakoreactor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/rune-factory-3-special-pc-review-8-300x169.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/ewwwfiles.themakoreactor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/rune-factory-3-special-pc-review-8-768x432.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/ewwwfiles.themakoreactor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/rune-factory-3-special-pc-review-8-1536x864.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/ewwwfiles.themakoreactor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/rune-factory-3-special-pc-review-8-696x392.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 696w, https:\/\/ewwwfiles.themakoreactor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/rune-factory-3-special-pc-review-8-1068x601.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 1068w, https:\/\/ewwwfiles.themakoreactor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/rune-factory-3-special-pc-review-8-747x420.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 747w, https:\/\/ewwwfiles.themakoreactor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/rune-factory-3-special-pc-review-8.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 1920w, https:\/\/ewwwfiles.themakoreactor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/rune-factory-3-special-pc-review-8.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;w=139&amp;ssl=1 139w, https:\/\/ewwwfiles.themakoreactor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/rune-factory-3-special-pc-review-8.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;w=417&amp;ssl=1 417w, https:\/\/ewwwfiles.themakoreactor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/rune-factory-3-special-pc-review-8.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;w=556&amp;ssl=1 556w, https:\/\/ewwwfiles.themakoreactor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/rune-factory-3-special-pc-review-8.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;w=1392&amp;ssl=1 1392w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Should you buy Rune Factory 3 Special on PC or Nintendo Switch?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As for whether you should get it on PC, Steam Deck, or Nintendo Switch, the answer is easy. Buy it on either platform. Rune Factory 3 Special is great regardless and I have no hesitation in recommending it on either Steam Deck or Nintendo Switch. The lack of touchscreen support and some upscaled assets are disappointing, but everything else works great on both platforms, and I&#8217;m glad Marvelous and Xseed Games brought Rune Factory 3 to modern platforms in such an excellent release. If you do have a Nintendo Switch OLED Model, I&#8217;d get Rune Factory 3 Special on that instead of Steam Deck for the better display though. Those are really the only differences right now. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you aren&#8217;t a fan of Joy-Cons for games like this in portable mode, you can rectify that with a Hori Split Pad Pro or Compact, which I use on my Switch. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=rune-factory-3-special-pc-review-128b14.html alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-55820\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ewwwfiles.themakoreactor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/rune-factory-3-special-pc-review-12-1024x576.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/ewwwfiles.themakoreactor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/rune-factory-3-special-pc-review-12-300x169.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/ewwwfiles.themakoreactor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/rune-factory-3-special-pc-review-12-768x432.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/ewwwfiles.themakoreactor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/rune-factory-3-special-pc-review-12-1536x864.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/ewwwfiles.themakoreactor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/rune-factory-3-special-pc-review-12-696x392.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 696w, https:\/\/ewwwfiles.themakoreactor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/rune-factory-3-special-pc-review-12-1068x601.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 1068w, https:\/\/ewwwfiles.themakoreactor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/rune-factory-3-special-pc-review-12-747x420.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 747w, https:\/\/ewwwfiles.themakoreactor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/rune-factory-3-special-pc-review-12.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 1920w, https:\/\/ewwwfiles.themakoreactor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/rune-factory-3-special-pc-review-12.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;w=139&amp;ssl=1 139w, https:\/\/ewwwfiles.themakoreactor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/rune-factory-3-special-pc-review-12.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;w=417&amp;ssl=1 417w, https:\/\/ewwwfiles.themakoreactor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/rune-factory-3-special-pc-review-12.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;w=556&amp;ssl=1 556w, https:\/\/ewwwfiles.themakoreactor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/rune-factory-3-special-pc-review-12.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;w=1392&amp;ssl=1 1392w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Rune Factory 3 Special review<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Rune Factory 3 Special succeeds in balancing farming simulation and action RPG gameplay together, but the end result might be a bit too easy for some. You can change the difficulty to hard or hell if you want though. I found the default fine, and used Rune Factory 3 Special as a nice break between everything else released recently. Not only is it a great Rune Factory game, but the localization really makes it feel like a new game despite the game&#8217;s own issues right now. I can only hope that Xseed Games allows those who own the standard edition an upgrade path for the Deluxe Edition DLC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As someone who adores Rune Factory 4, Rune Factory 3 Special is an easy recommendation despite the few issues. I will never tire of this franchise&#8217;s blend of RPG, farming, and life simulation, and I&#8217;m glad that another entry is more accessible thanks to Rune Factory 3 Special. Hopefully Marvelous and Xseed Games can work on bringing the rest of the series to modern systems in between new entries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This month is very busy, and 2023 will likely see even more heavy hitters released across platforms, but Rune Factory 3 Special is worth your time. If you&#8217;ve been craving a relaxing game with memorable characters, a fun gameplay loop, and a lot of freedom, Rune Factory 3 Special is for you. As someone who properly experienced Rune Factory 3 directly through this Special version, it just feels like I&#8217;m playing a new and good Rune Factory game, and that&#8217;s always worth celebrating. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rune Factory 3 Special does a great job at bringing a DS classic to modern platforms, and it also happens to be a fantastic experience on both Steam Deck and Nintendo Switch. It isn&#8217;t as good as Rune Factory 4 Special, but few things are, and this is worth your time if you want to sample one of Marvelous&#8217; best series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rune Factory 3 Special is out now worldwide for Nintendo Switch and Steam.
