Inventory space
For the love of magic and anything else really, PLEASE, PLEASE do something about the inventory space.
The variety in resources is really great, it makes the game feel alive, but each item having 3 tiers generally + seeds is 4 slots per one item and with having like 16 initial slots... why you do this to us?

Do you realize that these kinds of games are played by hoarders?
We need to pick up everything and put it in a pile and sit on top of it - only that makes us truly happy!

Ideas:
For starters, have the seeds go into separate storage, like a seed pouch or something.
It will help with inventory space both in bag and in chests.

Perhaps have normal bag buyable in the tailors store, which could only store flowers, herbs, mushrooms, shells and the like, and have the magic bag which expands with the crystals to be able to store anything (it makes sense that it takes a magical pocket to store rocks and iron ore and logs etc.)

And late game have a magic bag slot which would send anything put in it to a large chest or perhaps several sorted chests in house directly. Idea wise - like ender chest in Minecraft if you know that.

A common ender chest already exists: the blue chests that are mirages on a different plane. Make a potion, go into the astra realm and click on the to gain access to them. 3 of them are directly around the manor as well.

Even one of the witch exam tasks tells you to unlock them. Use the witch exam as a guide to learn about game mechanics you may not have interacted with yet.

"Dimensional Chests are located in the Astra Realm as well as the mortal realm. To unlock them, you must click on them in Astra. Once they are unlocked, they are useable in the mortal realm and share a common "Dimensional Pocket Space" for storage which is accessible from all of them. Anything you put in at one location can be taken out from any other! The more you unlock, the more storage you have!"

I may not have known about what the dimensional chests do yet (30 hours in game and no I didnt try to rush it, i do like the game), but even with them at end, its still not decent, especially the seeds part.

Tbh, there are a lot of storage options in the game already. I think it's sufficient. You just have to unlock them first.

It would be nice if we could get different skins/furniture options for the storage options too. Having the same chest everywhere isn't very exciting. I know the bookshelves and desks have a couple of storage spaces, but it doesn't seem much. Maybe some kind of old-fashioned fridge/pantry for the kitchen which holds as much as one of those stacking chest shelves things to keep all the ingredients in? Or a little mini potting shed for the greenhouse which holds seeds? And what on earth is going on with the sideways upside down kitchen cabinets which only hold 2 items? :slimeamazed: !'m still checking the furniture shop every week but there doesn't seem to be much variety on storage.

Make sure you use all the space stones and Astra fruit you collect. Space stones give you more inventory space. Astra fruit gives you more energy. I was halfway through the game before I figured it out. I was hording them lol. Also at the end of the main quests, you get a mega space stone that opens up 15 extra inventory slots.

This is useful to know, but the inventory options are super bad if you just want to slowly enjoy the game.

I mean inventory management is part of the game. I feel like it had a pretty natural progression because at the start you won't be finding purple or gold quality items anyways and by the time you do your inventory has expanded drastically, you're able to use astral chests, or you've gotten the broom and you just zip around so quick it doesn't matter.

100% agree with OP, Id like more inventory spaces. Id love to be able to explore more and pick it all up. I think for a relaxing game minimum spaces should be 50 at least, shouldnt have to be more restricted than this game already makes me feel. Unless this is more survival type game. Cosy game should be cosy and pleasant experience.

I have unlocked all of them and I have metal rack chests and don't have a problem. You want to see an inventory nightmare. Play Palia lol

I agree, they should be a "buy backpack" or sth :)

Sorry, my true happiness would include storage container labels.
