In the end the FOMO doesn't really matter (just like real-life) and fortunately the best part of the game is unmissable -- a strong sequence where someone suddenly turns against you. It takes good parts of other good games, and skilled talented people spent lots of time and money on it. You talk but they don't listen.

Unlike Stardew Valley, there's no visible relationship meter or tutorial here -- only soft hints that a certain NPC might want to see the fish you catch, or that another is interested in unique plants, or a random cutscene where a character gets excited about electronics. You're just an NPC in their story.

In this sense, playing a 75% finished game is more useful than playing a 100% finished game. So this post will focus on my read of the general game design and player experience. The player never quite experiences these ideas in the game itself. Similarly, you can see where the core game design wanted to hit.

Setting that up properly is an effort in storytelling, a discipline all its own distinct from game design. The first example that comes to mind for me was the courtroom scene in Chrono Trigger, wherein the fact that I went to pick up a piece of jewelry before checking if my companion was okay was used against me in court!

It’s stuff that single-player game designers know how to do. Breadcrumbs, dialogue trees, cutscenes, progression paths. And the biggest reason why the themepark line has dominated is because it tackles mostly solved problems, compared to building a true alternate world. Expensive, but at heart predictable for the developer.
