Hi Clover, I'm responding to the chat we had about Harvest Moon vs Story of Seasons a little while on my message wall. I figured I'd post it here, so you could more easily see it. I've changed the header on the main page to say that we cover Story of Seasons now. I've also made up a description (which I think is somewhat accurate) to include on the home page explaining the differences. I thought I'd run it past you though, since you explained it to me and understand a bit better than I do. Let me know how this sounds before I publish it:

Natsume, for years, had been localizing the Bokujō Monogatari series (Harvest Moon) and publishing the games that we all know and love! However, recently, Natsume's rights to localize these games expired. Natsume kept the trademark on the name of "Harvest Moon," and started to make new games in the series that were different from what the original publisher (Marvelous) had done. These games include Harvest Moon: The Lost Valley, Harvest Moon: Seeds of Memories, and the upcoming Harvest Moon: Skytree Village.

Because Marvelous was no longer allowed to utilize the name of "Harvest Moon," they changed their series name to Story of Seasons for their upcoming games. These workings continue on with the traditional older "Harvest Moon" styles, and is the true continuation of the Bokujō Monogatari series.
