There are a few areas where the clock mechanic is really, really bad:

  • If you go into the desert and try the dungeon there, you will run into the issue time running out. The bus is starting quite late and it takes time to go down the dungeon
  • That also applies the first times you go to the island
  • The community center also has this problem: You need to catch certain fish that might only be available in some seasons in some areas in certain times and you are really lost without the wiki there. And if you miss the time slot where those fish are available (or where you can grow certain crops) you need to wait another year before being able to progress.

Fair points. I guess none of that really bothers me since I'm not trying to do everything within a given number of in game years. I don't feel punished by the game ever except for maybe when I die in a dungeon and lose some of my stuff.

I could see how if you don't enjoy the day to day game loop that could be the punishment though. Haha.
