I just started a thread on the Steam discussion forum asking for a save and quit feature. I don't know if the dev is going to read or consider suggestions there, but I don't know a better place to do it. Maybe if others would also like to see that change, you could add your vote there?

Yeah, it's not 1996 anymore, what we need is save and quit and diagonal movement to be the same speed as UDLR.

Nope :O

I did get an earthquake on the night between spring and summer, still not sure what it did exactly since I didn't see anything different so far.

Also, a tip for your first big wood investment, fix the small bridge on the beach, it opens up an area which spawns corals and shells and that kind of stuff which sells for a nice amount. Also also, make sure to have some cash handy for the festivals since they usually sell some nice stuff, like strawberries, which are like beans except more awesome

Just to be aware folks. If you don't hand in the quest after completing it, you will miss out on the reward and such if you expend the last day. Kinda collapsed trying to escape a swarm of Slimes and getting out of the mines. Had a Quest to kill the buggers, did it but wanted to go deeper. Then while trying to find a new down so I could go up I collapsed...

By the way, what do I have to do to unlock the quest for the minecart? All I see is out of order when i try to use it.

Eventually the mayor takes you into the old town hall,  go in and see the weird magical text, eventually you'll be invited by the wizard, so talk to him, and then drink his.. magic juice.. then when you go back to the town hall, it unlocks the restore the town packages (first is just foraging). (you basically just bring the things asked for, and fill up the packages). Start finishing more of those and more groups of packages unlock until a mining/adventure group of packages unlock, finish those 3 packages, and the carts unlock giving you fast-travel between 3 locations.

Thanks. I somehow missed that finishing all of the bundles in a set gives a reward. Now to find those damn ores.

I think the biggest challeng with that set will be getting the adventuring part, not sure at which point stuff which drops the void/sun stuff appears, I also made the mistake of selling off about 50 slimes before realising I would actually need them for something.

With that, another tip, if you get a hold of anything, and it doesn't say trash in the description it's valuable and will serve some purpose sooner or later, with storage chests being cheap, consider keeping atleast one of everything you come across in case you need it.

Also, if someone is trying to woo/find Leah, my stalking efforts have proven fruitful. During spring she usually leavs her house a bit after noon and goes west to the lake shore and just chills there. During the summer she seems to switch it up and goes to the beach around the same time, also sometimes in the pub, tho I'm not sure how regular that is.

[frostshotgg]

As near as I can tell, the pro way to get close to someone is give them gifts every time you see them randomly until you get the event at 2/3 hearts that lets you go into their room, then two times a week be there right when they open their door so you can give them gifts.

I didn't make it home before two am and collapsed but I just ended up back at my bed and it did not seem to be a problem. I even still got up at 6 am. What is the downside of collapsing.

I agree that it can be really difficult to find people.

That's actually the easiest one. Have you noticed that you don't have to bring in all the items? On the Bundle screen, check the amount of slots where you can place items. I think the Adventuring one just needs 2 items.
I went WTF when I saw those Bundles with like 10 items on them, but then I noticed you only need to bring 5.

What's funnier about SV more than HM is that there's simply a lot of stuff that take a lot of money. I COULD spend all my savings on a Steel Pickaxe, or I could use it to buy a building, or save some more for inventory expansion....
I find this really cool, it makes it so each person will have a different progression path. Fishing is my last priority, just like I used it to leave it to the final years of my HM playthoughs. I got to Level 60 on the mines on the first spring, though, so I guess I'm a Slime squisher (spent a good deal of money to be able to do that, though, so I don't think I'll be richer than most Farmers and other 'paths').

Yah..I miss back on HM when you would lose hours of the next day if you kept sleeping late.

You probably got a mail from the doctor telling him you were brought to the clinic and then brought home by someone, and he charged you 25G..but I don't think that's such a negative outcome..

[Jopax]

I think you have half energy for the next day? Something I noticed when going fully exhausted once was that I had that the next day. Not sure if it applied to collapsing.

And while stuff is expensive initially, I feel that once you get your farming up and running to a decent degree earning several thousand for a single harvest isn't that much of an issue anymore.

Spoiler: Easy way to get a lot of seeds (click to show/hide)

Once you unlock the town hall stuff, doing the season forage deal nets you 30 random seeds of that season, even if they turn out to be mostly flowers, you'll earn a respectable sum for virtually no investment. And all it takes is finding the several seasonal wild plants, which is doable within a couple of days if you wander around enough

Also didn't notice there were fewer slots than actual requirements, that's pretty cool, should make unlocking that room fairly easy then.

RE: Diagonal movement.
Basically: You move maybe 10% slower than you should when moving diagonally, but it's still faster than using Manhattan distance.

There's almost double the amount of people playing on Steam now than my previous post.

Oh yeah, there's that. I also noticed that even though sleeping late will wake you at 6am always (differently from HM in which I remember you'd wake up much later), it won't recharge your energy 100%. I went to sleep at 1:30AM with 25% energy, woke up with ~75%.

I also 'discovered' something that I think is a bit unfair the game doesn't tell you. It's not game breaking or anything, but I don't know how much we lose by not knowing it. I only discovered it on the first week of summer. It's a game feature, so I don't know if it's a spoiler..it's regarding the use of the hoe.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

You can use the hoe on certain tiles anywhere on the game world, and that could give you resources or Lost Books for the museum. Found 3 books already, and I wasn't finding any books before noticing this.

It might be obvious to some people, but I only played older Harvest Moon games and I don't remember that being a thing.
