i think the problem is, this game is devs playground... and he want to enrich with resources and more locations... thats why the game progress is so slow.... he makes one new location and never visit there for another five months, and busy making another location... even soap operas dont add so many locations.
as examples, sams house, she went there to learn guitar, and never went there again till now... she should go to gym daily, but no.... the park, is it a one time thing!! everyone should take morning walk daily... patricias house, nothing to say.... the beach, one time location.... the yoga event, i dont think we will ever see that location again
instead of introducing so many locations i think he should make more events per location, ... that will boost the development work
