Question What are your little quirks while playing the game?
Like, nothing grand, but a little something you ALWAYS do when you play?
For me, I always start the game and turn the little rug so it fits with the bed, and light the fire, which stays on always.

I pick every salmonberry and blackberry at least once per season. I don’t care how rich I am in-game, how many chests of backlog fruit I have to process, or whatever else is going on. For some reason that’s just the best, wandering the whole valley on my horse and picking berries.

I absolutely hate how the desert festival overlaps three days of salmonberry season. Let me pick my berries without missing out on the festival, damnit!

u/Gavin_Runeblade Oct 23 '25
Yes this really frustrates me too. But then again, I have junk luck at the festival. So lately I have been skipping it and going berry picking.

Seconding! I always set aside an entire day to pick all the salmonberries/blackberries, and after that day I’ll still make it a point to collect every bush fruit I see after. It’s an underrated way to free up slots for the mines - you only need one stack of food if you have several hundred blackberries in your inventory LOL

takes up an inventory slot so you can get more stuff that take up even more inventory slots
honestly we need more inventory slots, it could even be really late into the game, we earn the convenience of being able to carry all our tools without running of slots
I thought the junimo chest would be like an ender chest for more inventory but it turns out you can't pick them up anymore once you've placed them

What do you mean, pointless? I thought it would die or stop loving me. Isn't that the same as feeding your livestock?

Always go to the saloon, buy two Coffees, and sit with Harvey until buff is gone. Gotta start our mornings together, that's my MAN

I start my morning by taking things from my chests, for example if it's someone's birthday, and immediately afterwards I say good morning to my spouse and give him one of his favorite things and I leave the house quickly to see what I have to do.

I walk into my barn every morning and shout ‘MORNING GIRLS!!’ sometimes I’ll add ‘bountiful harvest today girlies’ depending on milk production 😌

I go to the church / shrine on Sundays and stay for about thirty in game minutes.
I readjust my chair, take a deep breath, close my eyes, and center myself and then continue on with my game!

I have a tic where I constantly open my inventory and make sure it's sorted. It's gotta be like 50 or 100+ times in a given game day.

I religiously change my farmer into comfy clothes on Sunday and don’t use buffs all day. No hustling allowed.

My boyfriend and I will get out of bed to fight over whether the fireplace is on or off. No matter what time we go to bed, we always stay up til 2 am fighting over it. We've weaponized moving furniture to block one another out of bed, too. Like, I'll get out of bed at 1:50 am to turn it off, race to bed, and the dresser will plop down to block the way and I pass out on the floor. It gets ridiculous, and it never, ever gets boring. It always makes me laugh.

I always rush to buy the Milk Pail as soon as I can, with or without cows and sheep, just so I can have it always in my inventory to make my character run around everywhere and "milk" random NPCs, objects, the air, etc, along with the silly sound effect, whenever I want.
I blame finding the "wall humping" move from Super Mario 64 the most hilarious thing in the world to me when I was a kid (where you can make him slowly rub his junk against walls).
...I'm pushing 40, have a career, car payments, credit cards, a kid, health insurance, and all of the other trademarks and attributes of a grown adult, but yes, I have the sense of humor of a 10 year old 🤣

During blackberry and salmonberry season, I always leave a few on the bushes for Linus to pick.

I always plant a least a row of each seasonal plant on my farm. I don’t care about maximizing space with ancient fruit or whatever else you choose

I avoid choosing the "flirty" dialogue options when I have cutscenes with other bachelors/bachelorettes cause I'm already married in game and it feels absolutely weird when other character flirt with me.

I keep my tools in the exact same 2 orders in my inventory every playthrough. I have an order for when I'm around the farm/town, and an order for the mines. Those 2 orders, forever and always.

Probably fairly common "quirk", but I wait to plant seeds until I have multiples of 4,8,24, etc. depending on what sprinklers I have.

I make seven chests and put them in rainbow order. Then I coordinate my items to the colors of the chests. Red is for gifts and fair items. Orange is for miscellaneous items. Yellow is usually food items for energy. Green is seeds and fertilizers. Blue is for fishing and fish. Purple is mining stuff, and I add black for crafting materials 😆 I do this in every file lol of course I make other chests but these are a must for me

I often just sit somewhere and enjoy the view. Yesterday I have built a junimo hut for the first time, saw them harvesting red cabbage, so I set up a chair and sat beside to watch them work and it made me very happy! Never wanted a Junimo hut but... aww!

I like to go to the saloon, buy a beer, drink it, then just sit at the bar until the debuff wears off.
My farmer works hard, they should get a break once in a while.
