Jesus christ I leave one part of my farm alone for one second and the lwest side is overrun by trees!
There are so many of them! When I grew them they took almost a month to get to full size!

Heh....
So, Demetri came to the farm, suggested on using the cave there to encourage some natural growth, bats or mushrooms...

Well I had to answer someone out of game, turns out that that moves the chat along and the game selected one that was highlighted at that time. I can't remember tbh. BUT I also can't go check until I upgrade my Pick or something, CAUSE THE METEOR IS IN FRONT OF THE ENTRANCE!!!


ALSO:: Did no realize that Spring was a 28day season... Shitakimushrooms!!! THEY ALL ARE 28day Seasons!!!

Might be a bug, but I was throwing some copper ore into the furnace. When the last batch was in, I accidentally right-clicked the furnace with the empty hotbar slot, uprooting the furnace and destroying the ore/coal that was inside.

I found a bit of an exploit that is useful if you need clay for your silo

I'm loving the game so far. Except fishing. Fishing makes me want to throw my controller across the room.  :P

I wonder why everyone finds fishing so frustrating? Most of the fish that you catch near the beginning (at least for me) have been really easy. But then the difficulty spikes on them. Catching my first... I think it was a catfish... was the most frustrating thing. Then there was the pike. Maybe the game just isn't intuitive to some people? It even shows a little tutorial. Is it because people don't know you can click and hold the mouse button?

Also, I got a diamond from a treasure chest while fishing, so there's another bonus for you. I tend to bring my rod everywhere and use it while I'm waiting for stores to open etc. I do feel that some of the fish sell for rather low considering how difficult some of them are to catch. Largemouth bass and Pike are both 100g, I think, and yet largemouth bass is much easier to catch.

ARGLEBARGLE!!!

So I found a neat level 3 sword in the dungeon, served me nicely, but I had some spare cash so I decided to check out what was on offer in the guild. There was a level 4 cutlass for 1500 gold, a bit expensive but the upgrade was well worth it. Then I remember I had a slayer quest completed with gill, so I go to check what he has for me.
It was a level 5 sword :I
Ok, fine, I'll eat the loss, so I go to sell the freshly bought cutlass for 200 gold, and while I'm in the shop screen I want to move the reward sword into my hotbar, forgetting for a split second that clicking stuff in the shop sells them.

I ragequit at that point, hopefully it didn't save anything :V

Oh I completely understand the mechanics of it - I'm just horrendously bad at it.  :P

I had to plug in my controller to actually be able to catch anything other than sardines. For some reason using the mouse makes it a lot more difficult for me.

It only saves the game when you sleep, so as long as you haven't gone to bed you can savescum stuff.

Does the controller give you analog control over the bar?

Probably because some fish are insane to catch.
Fishing is my worst skill, but it is expected that even with the second rod and low skill, you're still gonna have a hard time on some fishes. I believe higher skill means faster and more stable fishing.
IIRC, on old Harvest Moon it all depended on your rod, right?

What annoys me sometimes is when a default fish for the place fights as if it were a shark. You get excited and then you get..a bream.

I'm loving the game too, but I do think that the slow movement speed and no save on quit makes it terrible for people who have kids/are married/have full-time jobs. I'm currently not in any of those, though.  8)
I'm gonna have no mods for the first play through, but next time I'll definitely grab some movement tweaks. I wish some unlockable/buyable/reward boots gave movement bonus. Maybe they exist, but it shouldn't take long to get'em..
Just like in HM, there's the horse. But I'm on 1st of Fall and still don't have enough resources to get it.

However, as some people might suspect after exploring, there is a thing that can help with movement:

It honestly feels like a lot of their problems came from the fact that their entire team was composed of cats, and the people who were supposed to be herding them were also cats.

Some of the fish are absolutely brutal. I've spent over an hour save scumming trying to catch a pufferfish. Tuna are pretty hard, but pufferfish are just ridiculous. I'm close to giving up and saying you need a level 3 rod with tackle to make them even possible.

Depending on game, sometimes it just depending on your sense of timing.
