Q9:
I like to keep two of every animal, but with the massive amount they can create now, I might just keep a few of the base animals (Cows/Sheep/Chickens) and one of the others. With about four or five pets! Three dogs and two cats seems like an nice amount for a farm, right? I'll need some good foragers, lol. That wizard exterior demands mushrooms.

I grow everything, but I especially like growing things I like irl, such as strawberries and basically all the fruit and tea trees. There are always strawberries in my fields during spring though.

As for animals, I really like rabbits because I've always thought they were adorable. I tend to prefer wool-producing animals as opposed to cows and chickens.

I grow everything, but love strawberries and other re-grow plants. Like trees for low maintenance.
I usually keep 2 of each animal, but this time will only have one. I dislike brushing.
In ANB huge animals freak me out, I tend to sell them.
I usually have both dogs and cats, I like all pets. I try to get dog appearance close to my IRL white husky.

Not gonna waste anymore time to grow each crops to the best rank! Starting the soonest I get to fertilize it! And now the biggest challenge is to upgrade ALL kinds of rank on 1 crop! lol~ Also depending if the barn look good, might consider more than 1 type of animal each since I like them having babies~

Plant whatever seeds I start with, clear out the field then off to town to meet everyone and explore.

Plus buying some animals as soon as I get the opportunity as I have a big preference for animals and crops that don't take much maintenance, IE trees and regrow crops.

Well, everyone was busy with the whole stream and dlc announcements and all... but anyway!

Question 10: Which non-farming activity takes up most of your time? Which do you like most, and which ones do you not like? (Yes I stole this question from XSEED Q&A because it was there)

Well, trio has a bunch of non-farming stuff, but even in sos, what easily ate up my (real life) time was the pottery maker shed. I used to just buy soil and make it into stuff. I was obsessed with it. No, I did not make flax and gold linen cloth... I just made pottery instead.

On the other hand, I hate fishing. I really do. I hate it in real life, I hate it in video games. It's good the fish bonus finally exists.

In the previous games, when mining was a tedious chore to get to 255 floors or something, I didn't like it much, but mining gems is pretty satisfying. Mining scrap ore is not.

Over time, I'd say definitely messing around trying to organize things. Inventory, farm layout, you name it and I will try and sort it for hours. I like Cooking, too. Something that takes game clock time away, I'm not sure on. A tossup between Festivals and "doing ridiculous things that are needed to beat the story for some reason" probably. I don't mind either one. I don't spend a lot of time on the social aspects. Mostly I just look up event triggers/best answers and let Festivals, Events, and B-Day gifts carry me blissfully through the social aspects.

I think in this game it might end up being "Part-Time Jobs" as I was a big fan of similar systems in previous BokuMono titles. I liked doing the SoS exclusive activity, swimming & diving, a lot.

I do not like Fishing, as strange as it may sound coming from me, the person who spends every second fishing in literally every other game ever made, but the BokuMono button mashing kills me, and adding a needlessly unfair percentage of "junk" catches and making it take a very long time to even get a bite to that is awful. (I know button mashing was removed from 3oT.)

It would be mining normally but if there's going to be no mining then fishing it is.

Don't get me started on fishing. You just lie down in your bed, waiting for the fish, and when it finally comes, you press A... Voila. You have a fish. Well done. Fishing just bores me. If I have free time, I run around the village or town like a maniac.

I always bumrush building the coop so I can get chickens (and quails this time!!). One of my irl goals in life is to eventually own a little hobby chicken farm so I love being able to have a whole bunch of virtual birds to love.

Mining has always been one of my favorite things to do after farm chores, while fishing usually ends up being the bane of my existence due to my lack of patience :lol:
I'm just super glad we won't have to mash A this time.

I really like mining though decorating is something I took a big liking to in recent things.

Q 10: I like making new outfits and decorating the farm, but the simplest thing I like to do is forage. I always make the rounds and gather up items after farm work. I'm rather naturally a collector of things in real life too (usually books and movies, but I gather up bookmarks and compact mirrors like dragons and gold) , so I think this is just an extension of myself in the game.
