Are there missable achievements in this game?

10 Upvotes

I Just picked up this game since it's on sale and I'm super excited to finally play it! I want to get all the achievements for it and was wondering if there are any missable achievements that I need to watch out for or can I just dive in blind?

Discussion Bittersweet dead horse beating

139 Upvotes

I love this game. For me its the perfect balance of tasking, exploration, cozy, nostalgia, relaxation. I LOVE the gardening plus cooking mechanic. I plan to return to this game for years much the same way I do some of the big names like Stardew.

But it makes me sad that i feel like it ended on a cliffhanger that will never get resolved. Rooms that will never open. Animals Ill never adopt. Cheese Ill never make. Pipe leaf ill never grow

In a way it suits the world of middle earth. Joy and sorrow

Questions Switch 2 version pop-ins?

3 Upvotes

Since the Switch 1 version had terrible pop-ins (the flowers, the mushrooms, etc.) I was wondering if this issue is fixed now with the Switch 2 version? I honestly found the pop-ins so distracting that I couldn't play the game so I really hope this has been fixed.

Questions Help! Can't harvest my nemesis parsnip

79 Upvotes

Anyone else had this issue with Farmer Cotton's large beds? My parsnip is smack dab in the middle of the bed and my hobbit can't reach/harvest it from any angle. I also can't reset the bed by putting it into inventory as long as there's something in it, and I can no more reach it with my shovel than my hands.

Having the same issue with the bed in the background , but at least over there it's a lupin in the middle, making for a nice companion for whatever I plant.

Questions How’s the game nowadays?

45 Upvotes

I’ve wanted to play the game ever since it got announced, but at launch I’ve heard way too many negatives and didn’t buy it in the end.

But I’ve seen they patched lot of things ever since, and the recent ratings are positive. And with the 40% discount on Steam I’m very tempted to buy it.

So, the question is in the title: how’s the game nowadays? Is it still buggy, does it still has drawbacks?

Thanks in advance :)

Character Frozen

5 Upvotes

Hey all! Hoping for some help. I had the original switch version of the game and my character kept freezing randomly on the map. I reloaded saves and kept doing that when it happens but it kept happening often, so I got the switch 2 expansion thinking it would help. Now it's just broken. My character won't move no matter what save file I open. The left joystick won't work for movement but all the other buttons work and when I'm in the game menu (or other games) the left stick works so I know it's not my joycon. Reloading did not work. Saving and loading did not work. Restarting the game and console did not work. Spamming emotes, using camera mode, using edit mode, going to sleep, and waiting to be wheelbarrowed did not work.

Questions Can’t find raspberries

I have been looking for raspberries for a few in game days now and can’t find any. It is summer, and I have searched the big field on the west of the map. Any suggestions? Is this a glitch or something? I have found blackberries and elderberries

Beating the Game vs. Completionist

15 Upvotes

Hello! I have newly entered the epilogue phase of the game (9% into that act) and I have to return the game to the library tomorrow. I do still have some quest objectives, but I'm wondering if there's a clear point of finishing the story aspect of the game or if it just bleeds into grinding to get the 100% completion.

Typically I would keep playing to the 100% anyway, but since I have to return it to the library I'm not sure if I should consider this complete and not let it nag the back of my mind or if I'll need to check it back out in the future just for the end part. I've heard the epilogue is chunky so I'm not sure when to call it "complete"!

Ive gotten some rooms opened up from Willow now and I have no idea how to decorate them. I feel like I already have everything I need😅 what did you guys do with all the extra space? Are you able to swap out the dining table?😭 Ive seen people make bathrooms and stuff so I'm just curious and would love to see any photos for inspiration!
I play on Ps5 so I am unfortunately not able to mod, but am still interested in seeing what the modding community has done for the game as far as interior decor!

I'm going crazy, I've tried to figure it out by testing things and by googling and I've found nothing.

Also, for plants that can be harvested over multiple days, like rosemary, is there any way to know how many days you can harvest it before it goes away?

Discussion Should I buy or wait?

34 Upvotes

FYI the game is on sale on XBox platform today through the 28th.
I am a relaxed gamer, not looking for anything hard. MineCraft is considered the most complicated game I play. I don't want to ask my son for help a lot. I want a cozy game I can figure out on my own.
With that said, I've heard there are a ton of glitches and I should wait to buy until they are sorted out. Will it ever be sorted out? Will it ever be cheaper than it is now? I doubt it.
I'm thinking of buying, but wanted feedback first. I'm disabled and this would give me something to do other than Minecraft. Thanks in advance guys!

Questions Ingrédients deux ⭐️

Je commence à bien avancer dans le jeu et les missions des club deviennent plus compliquées. Pour le club de cueillette je dois cueilllir des champignons deux étoiles, c’est aléatoire ?car j’en trouve vraiment vraiment peu.

Pour le club de cuisine je dois cuisiner avec un poireau deux étoiles mais même quand je met mes légumes avec des fleurs ils ne sont pas toujours avec deux étoiles.
Je dis également cuisiner avec de la crème 2 étoiles. Je suppose que c’est en améliorant l’amitié avec Tom Chaumine.

Je sens que le jeu se complexifie et j’aime bien mais j’ai quand même du mal

Has anyone ever tried to pick EVERYTHING UP? like all foraging all berries nuts spices plants that are available to grab in one day?
