To be fair, I just finished the main story. You guys DID warn me about getting the letter, but I didn't expect it to come at the end of year 1. I'm noticing there doesn't seem to be much a narrative through line. I was told to talk to people, but so far there's just set-ups for small conversations here and there. It FEELS done, though I see that Nate has other secret blueprints available. But overall it feels like busywork at the moment. Should I be doing something different? Or are these "other stories" generally slower paced?

I'm in Winter right now, and realizing how attached I've gotten to this game. I started with Wanderstop after a shocking layoff, and it genuinely helped my severe burnout. (Who knew video games could be so redeeming!) I thought I'd never find another game I liked as much. Now I've happened upon Wyldeflowers, which is a breath of fresh air when I've gotten exhausted from the job search. But I'm dreading the day I finish it. I don't want to leave Fairhaven. But I know a lot of you have. What games would you recommend (similar vibe) after finishing this one? I bought Stardew Valley when I bought my PS5 this Christmas and was trying to find cozy games, but I never started it. Is it comparable? Any other games you'd recommend instead? Now's a good time for me to think ahead, before the Summer Sale is over. Thanks!

I just turned the season to my first Autumn, and I've gotten a few bots to help me around the farm. Up until now, I had to change the game to relaxed mode because I never had enough time to get anything done. Now I don't have to spend hours fishing to make it in these Fair Haven streets. It's wonderful to offload so many chores (OMG, can't wait to put mining off) but now I'm finding myself with a LOT of extra time on my hands. Trying to determine if I should switch the game back to normal mode if I keep the bots. But what I also love about this game is how relaxing and meditative some of those tasks were. For those of you who use the bots . . . did you find you still had enough to DO once your chores were eliminated? Or did you decide to only use bots for certain chores, or sporadically?

Uhhh... I promise I'm not a quitter. I've rescued 277 bots and gotten a golden flag on every last planet. But these little triangle and square worlds make me want to throw my controller like my sore-loser cousin used to when we were kids. Anybody finish with all 301 bots? Is the fanfare greater if you've rescued EVERYONE? I bought this game because it helped with my stress. Now it's increasing my stress and I'm really hating having to gift so strenuously for 1 little bot. Any suggestions? Or alternative game suggestions?
