Being able to speed up time was a QOL featue I didn't know I wanted until now. Makes going through large distances easier. Even though having some manner of mount to move faster would be really beneficial. Airship travel was cinematic, but I can see how it could become annoying after the first five times. I thought sleeping would let me skip time but it didn't. Generally I like the option to rest during the night when it comes to games with day-night cycles.
It was a nice change of pace to start with nice starting equipment and not having to spend extra carry capacity to have a hatchet to cut wood with. Though I felt like combat was nothing else but to click on things, and hope you got more hp than it? I don't know if there is a death game over or not. My death was pretty magnificent. NPC responsivity is really nice.
Here is my playthrough, maybe you'll see something:

Also thank you for the clock back then.
