User blog:InterGail/Tropical Country is the bane of my existence. (SoS)

I'm on my forth playthrough of SoS and I've come to realize just how much I hate the requirements for unlocking the Tropical Country. It's literally farm Grass for 2 months, while you're desperately trying to gather as many sewing materials to ship the cheapest clothes possible, even then it still feels like it takes a year. I get that it's like supposed to be that "mid/endgame" grind after you get hitched, but like man, 600 clothes? Y'think that's enough?

Feels like there's an unlock missing. Something in between Wheat and Tropical would really help with the flow of the game.

Obviously it doesn't help that I stubbornly refuse to play on Seedling Mode. I just don't like how half the tool upgrades feel obsolete in that mode because the lower level tools are already so powerful.

Anyways, rant over. Now that I've shipped 500 Girls' Overalls I'm gonna go join TeamTrees and plant a billion hardwood trees to get 3000 pieces of small lumber to unlock the Ice Country.

...Why do I like this game again?
