Haven & Hearth 2/Hafen appreciation thread

[Amanda44]

The thing I love most is the changes that were made to the game don't seem to have compromised the magic that is haven. I don't know why salem never really managed to get that, but Hafen definitely does and that's what counts.

You're right, it hasn't lost the haven magic and I was so terrified it would, it does still feel like haven.
And gardens! I hadn't even thought that far ahead yet ....

Salem had much more changes to the core mechanics compared to haven. Salem has its own magic.
Haven 2 has almost the same core mechanics as Haven 1, with some tweaks.

Yup. At first I wasn't happy, but after playing a bit of Hafen I just see that it's worth the money. And now when we get 7h refilled every week, I think this is the most fair amount we could get for free. And by bringing back the party arrows I can finally be found by my friend and we can enjoy the game together. We both consider subscribing, because the game is so fun. Also, I've never had a chance to thank devs for giving us the old version for free for so many years, considering that, we should all agree that they deserve all the money they want for subscription. That's gonna guarantee us frequent updates and happy devs, not starving to death.

I love that it really feels like the old haven. And the boats are fucking awesome. Looking forward to exploring mining and metal crafting. Bring back the old music though Jorb

A lot of it is in already. Any particular piece you're missing?

The fishing music was the only music in the old version that I care about hearing again. I haven't figured out how to trigger it in the new version yet, is it in?

Love the game! Been playing both H&H legacy and Salem for many years now. I really enjoy the feel and atmosphere of all three games, and this feels like a further step in the right direction! Well worth paying a few bucks a month to keep supporting. Particularly if you keep adding a more golden nuggets like the short snip from “herr mannelig”.

I had my doubts at first but the game so far has been really enjoyable. I do feel the time limit opposes that a bit for me but besides that I have to say, the game is.. pretty good. Also the new additions to the game (tar kiln, tar, all that stuff) really makes me feel like the time I played HnH for the first time.

The game feels faster paced, too. I just wonder what the end game is like since IDK how much they added to that..

Hm, must have missed or never heard that...
