Most of the time the game is working properly, though, humming along with an endless series of pleasant tasks to chase after. Find slimes to get oil to make torches as a component for lamps, or smelt silver into ingots to craft into building blocks fitting for an ornate stage. There’s a marker on the map with a main quest point, plus another with a subquest, but there are also people in town sleeping...
