* AudienceAlienatingEra: ''VideoGame/HarvestMoonNatsume'' as a whole is seen as this, due in no small part to the fact that it's essentially a new series using the old name of what is now ''VideoGame/StoryOfSeasons''. Most, if not all of these games are considered to be worse than the older ''Harvest Moon'' games, and worse than the games being released under the ''Story of Seasons'' banner; to put this into perspective, even the above mentioned games during the Wii and DS era are seen as less contentious in hindsight. Even those who were initially unaware of the change may be catching on, especially since some of the older games that were released under the old name are being remade with the newer name.

They're starting to improve, but many players may feel that using the older Harvest Moon name is somewhat deceptive in getting people who may not have played for years buying Natsume's games, thinking they're the continuation from the older 2000s games when they're really a completely separate, InNameOnly series.

* AudienceAlienatingEra: The fandom is torn on what time period their audience-alienating era spans but it's generally thought to have began around Magical Melody and DS. The characters are seen as shallower, several disliked mechanics have been tried out, and the series as a whole got LighterAndSofter. It got worse when Marvelous said they were focusing on handhelds instead of consoles; and it shows as they released six DS games but only two, near identical Wii games. Even Yasuhiro Wada has shown dislike to the way the games have gotten; he especially dislikes how much focus romance is given within the series. That said, the Wii games were acclaimed (though they still weren't perfect) and the 3DS game, A New Beginning, is seen as an improvement over the past handheld installments.
