[Feedback] Day is too short

The day is too short. In the beginning I have to get used to UI and controls, read most of tooltips, check out a bit of map and so on. Then suddenly it's night already and my toon passes out. Well, ok, maybe I'm a slowpoke, the next day should be better. Then I found a few books, some NPCs and a few new items - the time doesn't stop when I read lorebooks or talk to people, ooops, another day wasted. Riiight. In the next day I should bring some milk to the NPC I've never seen before, to the location, where I've never been before. By the time I found this lady it was far past midday, and I had to return home and do a few jobs - in dusk. I'm still having an open job for buying seeds since I had no time to find the vendor yet.

Guys, pause when reading/talking/inventory management is a common sense thing. First few days could be a bit longer just for adaptation, a week later the time might run like it does now. I like the game already but... come on.

I agree a bit. I get that we want the world to have a bit of realism, but I can't really talk to the amount of NPCs I need too.

I actually think the length of the days is spot on, it may not be long enough for the first day when you're still learning everything it but it's fine for once you get the hang of things.

That's what I said - the beginning is too hasty for a newbie. As you grow IRL, the time goes by faster and faster, every next week/month/year passes quicker, it'd be even kinda realistic to have a slower pace at the start.

I think it'd be problematic to have it start slow and then get quicker because you'd get used to the slower passing of time, but your idea is nice (I'm just impatient and hate long days ecc)

The slowness could be "emulated" by increased daytime, not by slowing down everything ;). In Stardew Valley the day length is 15 mins of real time, iirc, in Kynseed it's pretty shorter. First few days could be longer for adaptation (in terms of SDV let's say ~20 mins), then take their rightful "default" time (15 mins). If you run out of stuff to do - fine, sleep over to another day. To avoid the exploits, some of the areas could be locked off from visiting early on.
Overall, in it's current state the beginning of the game is too pushy for a newbie. IMHO and all that, ofc.

Id agree, although ill admit to being new too.

I feel like the amount of time spent in "dusk" feels disproportionately long compared to daylight hours

Also, is there different light lengths for different seasons (e.g. 12h of sun during summer, 8 during winter)? That would be pretty amaze!

Different daylight time for the different seasons... well, even Sims 2/3 Seasons (the classics) didn't do that, I'm nearly sure they thought over the possibility then dumped it. Stardew Valley? Same, tho the dev could introduce it later, who knows. That's a risky move, might be a very special trait if made right, but it's too early to take on such a project.

It's something I have considered...getting dark earlier in Winter, although needs thought as playing in darkness can be annoying and the effect may be too slight if just an hour or 2.

Yup, an additional 2 hours of dusk is such a slight difference that it's not really worth the working hours you could put in it, not to mention there's little reason in extended darkness.
It might be a neat addition if some of the events and/or actions would require to be taken in darker hours - like some fishes/monsters/herbs/collectibles spawn, so technically winter would be very appealing for those who's gonna catch'em all. Since we don't have any rewards for "late night" activities, the surplus darkness would be just annoying. Primary objective yet is to make a core game playable, then it could be spiced up with perks and quirks.

Day is too short i know that as we are ready observing it from many countries as our fans has been tweeting and doing all the work which we where meant to do but now i have found my motive in life to play Geometry dash apk and play it hard enough till i die.

Wholly agree with what others have pointed out: the days do feel pretty short at first when you're limited and learning where things are and what to do and how but once you do, which doesn't take long, the days can easily seem far too long. I'm still a little torn about the seasons though, sometimes so far I think 14 days is too short (accustomed to the 28 days of Stardew Valley seasons) but other times, especially when I'm just itching for a change of scenery or really need/want a seasonal item, I start skipping ahead and sleeping a lot.

Agree that days should be longer. Stardew Valley has a mod that allows the player to set game speed in the SMAPI console. Pumpkin Days has a configuration setting for that. It is true that this will be subjective. So a range of possible settings is best. For me, I play using the longest day I can get, except for SV which allows you to slow time to zero with the mod.

The problem is.. the main game dynamic, having children and passing on the legacy, is already going to be so drawn out and difficult to access. Like the passage of time in the game is really unbalanced. If a day is even just 10 minutes long, and there are 14 days per season, and 4 seasons per year, that means every year will take about 9.5 hours. Say the adult life cycle of each generation is 40-50 years.... that’s 373 to 467 hours of gameplay per person. Obviously there is skipping/sleeping through days but I wish it wasn’t like.. at a point where I wanted to do that? But every day is the same. So I find myself skipping. And 300+ hours of the same thing per generation is a lot. If they made anything any longer it would obviously be even longer. Idk I just don’t see how it could work with the flow of the game when it’s already a bit grindy.

I’d like to emphasize I like the game 😅😅 I feel like I sound harsh but I’ve been thinking about the timing of everything in this game and since the whole draw to it over Stardew or many others with similar atmosphere or gameplay is the generational dynamic and choices having real consequences that pass between the generations. So having it be so long between generations is just kind of tough haha

I was hoping for a option under the setting that would allow the user to adjust the length of the day a bit like Stardew offers. It doesn’t let you get too crazy but allows a slight slow down of time passage. I feel like I barely get anything done and the day is over already.
