@Edent Doesn’t this happen to all new Stardew players? But there are street signs and a map so it got better fast for me.

@Edent Oh yeah, 100%. Some games expect you to know and understand the mechanics from the very beginning. C'mon, I haven't played your 7 previous games - I don't know what's going on here (I'm looking at you, Book of Hours)

@Edent the only ones that gripped me over the last few years were The Last of Us … and Minecraft, different ends of the spectrum.

@Edent may I recommend The Stanley Parable? It's got some interesting commentary on this type of thing. It's a "go in blind" type of game

@Edent oh, i get that as well, i don't play games a lot, but it's not uncommon for me to wander around for hours and suddenly "oh that's what i was supposed to do", sure, i did a million little thing in the mean time if it's an open enough game, and the game might get confused about its own story because i did things in orders nobody could predict (i compensate by trying really hard to do the impossible).

I try not to look at guides, but sometimes you need to, devs assume people share tips.

@Edent (ok, who am i kidding, i don't play a lot of games, but i play a lot at the ones i do)
