Great thanks to the developers for this great game
I am near the end of the main quest and soon i am married too.
I want to express my congratulations to the team who made this interessting game, which is (in my opinion) better than some other bigger farming simulators.

These are my points why are the game ist great:
1) The background story is authentic. A traumatized soldier who lost someone and goes drunk addicted and lost everything. Yeah this reflects reallife and can happen, so you can put oneself in his position.
2) You can feel the progress of getting better and bigger with horses, machines, animals ...
And it is really a progress just not "oh now i buy a new tractor and later this tractor"
3) I find it very good, unlike in other games, that you cannot turn into more a semi-industrialist then a farmer. You have some products that you can manufacture but this are things that you can say its ok a normal farmer in this time periode can do it.
4) The quests at the beginning are nice and a good alternative tutorial.


Some suggestions to make some actions less tedious:

- Rolling cigaretts: I think there are two option to improve but also balance it. First would be just make an automation, like wood cutting, after 20 successes in a row.
Or just make the minigame every new cigarett faster and faster until the play lose. So you have to play it but it could be less repetetive.

- Picking up wheat or oat: When i harvested a field with 300 oat it was a pain. Mowing wasn´t the big deal, but collecting it was frustraiting. I have to pick up every single peace and then throw the bunch out of my inventory. The pitchfork doesn´t work to pick up multiple peaces at once so it was useless. Maybe itcould work like picking up grass?

-Making sugar/alcohol: Alcohol need some buff because now it is more or less useless. The return of investment is too slow for the effort. for making sugar i would suggest to give the player the ability to upgrade the stove (more plates) or transfer the sugar process to the destillery and give the ability to produce larger amount of sugar at one time (maybe with a slightly more time to produce?).

Thank you for the good time with the game :)

Great game. Hope they keep updating it for a long time to come!
Excellent and very insightful review, I'm on 170+ hours and my second play through, these are my feelings exactly. Although as Isegrim hasn't got to the end of the game yet then he might see that there is an element of 'industrialism' about it, more managing and less doing, although only in a small way (and still under development). I agree in total, a hugely enjoyable and immersive game, with some tweaks and options still needed and sought for, well done developers.
