Players have reported a significant bug that causes villagers to randomly stop farming, leading to tedious micromanagement as users must constantly monitor and reassign them to vacant plots. This issue detracts from the overall enjoyment of the game, making the grinding aspect feel more frustrating than engaging.
- “A major bug that is a game breaker for me is that villagers will randomly stop farming fields, leaving you micromanaging them often since you have to put each one back to work.”
- “When you have many farm plots going, this can get tedious because not only do I have to keep an eye on them, I need to watch which plots are vacant due to this bug so I can put the villagers back to work.”
