Discussions about Quests

[HelenJS22]

I have to agree with Happy Pants (Post 249) regarding the people demanding that the developers make shorter time limits for the Quests.

It just amazes me how before they were introduced so many people were threatening to quit the game if quests were set into play and now just as many are begging for more. I guess our devs got the model right

However, what they have brought in has been done as 'an added element as PART of the larger game' and not the 'be all and end all'. For goodness sake, I'm quite sure that everyone managed to keep themselves occupied in and out of farmtown before we had a daily quest to do, and could do so again in the time they spend whining about wanting more.

They can't please all of the people all of the time, so why don't we just happilly accept what we have been given and get on with it, without the constant whining. For some players nothing is ever good enough.

I personally LOVE the daily quests be they simple or complex. I get it done during the day, then get on with my day, and look forward to tomorrow's quest.

I was very wary of what a quest was going to be, but am finding it fun. It is not time intensive; mostly waiting for crops to grow.
I have 3 guests going now -- making ginseng roots, making mushroom burgers, and making corn meal. I appreciate the coin bonuses to fully expand my farms. The possibility of a random FC prize is enticing too.

Exactly! Has anyone noticed that although quests are random, they always seem to come up with a crop I haven't planted!!! NOT A COMPLAINT, just an observation. Waiting for Farm 13 to plant 4 squares of EVERYTHING. lol

Hee hee - it's the evil gremlins that watch to check what you've got planted. They have a hot line to the random quest line So far I've only fallen foul of them once

Helen is right! It is the evil gremlins! The same thing has always happened to me.

I dont think that buying FC should be required to complete a quest. While I am lucky enough to be able to do so, and I have, often, I have good friends who cannot afford to buy FC. They feel like the poor red-headed stepchild who cant play with the other kids because they dont have the money.
