Is there any "right way" to play this game?

[Raremob]

Just kinda started playing this game even thou I've had it for awhile. i wanna get a good understanding of it before the new farms come out with the new update.

My question thou is this, each day I do stuff I honestly don't know if I'm always doing the "right thing" I mean I get up, do some farming and then do random other stuff, some days I do different things but each time I go to bed at night, I don't know if I'm playing the game totally correctly as if I wasn't as productive as I could have been.

Does anyone else feel this way? I'm just not sure if I have to do certain things or if it's the kinda game wher you do what you want and you play how you want kinda game...

You play how you want. If you want tons of money, focus on artisan goods.

Well. It's a farming game mostly. You need to focus on making money. If you don't make money then you don't do it right. You could be doing anything you want to get there, though. Farming is just the best way to do it since you can mass produce crops and sell it for lot of money.

Edit: Note that you don't need billions to play the game right. Just make sure that you are able to maintain yourself and buy what you need. Otherwise just have fun doing anything you like.

The "right way" is the way you have the most fun playing.

This too. Only worry is to have enough money for what we want. Otherwise, it's freedom!

There's definitely the right way to do some stuff, but not necessarily a right gameplay style.

For example, I consider the "right way" to farm, is that you're done planting and watering by 10am at the latest. (This includes replanting seeds, checking cave, animals and greenhouse.)

Friday is the socialising day, as everyone goes to the bar.

Every other day is a free for all. But it definitely helps to focus on one thing. Do fishing all day Monday, then Mining all day Wednesday. Don't do both in one day. You waste too much time walking around. :P

Farming sims are in part a productivity sim. You're supposed to be thinking about how to optimize your time either by better organizing tasks or working on upgrades that will get work done faster.

While earning money is often a goal, it's not the only draw. After all, there's no real penalty for being penniless. Some people focus on layout and exploration. You can spend hours making a farm and home layout that's uniquely yours.

Other people like exploring. This particular game has more corners and secrets to explore than most farm sims.

Some people focus on a specific type of craft or good. There's a lot to master and limited time in a day....which is how we circle back to time managment being a huge part of gameplay.
