You can start trying to do the main quest as soon as it shows up and get rid of the debt or play like me and make money and babies for your fighting crew.I'm struggling to understand this game's mechanics, to be honest. I think it's predecessor were way more simple to get used to. It might be because it's on alpha stage, so i'll just wait for the future updates and i'll try it out again. This game seem really promising, though.
Just work on making money from the start by selling extra food you can gather like "fish" and upgrade/research more food items and slots so more workers and bringing in food/wood/stone and so on.
I normaly pay off the debt and get my fighting crew to 6 fully decked out with the best gear I can get before I even start the main quest.
Save up money for the payment before it comes around and use the rest to hire more NPC's to do the work for you while at the same time you research/upgrade for more and more items/food so you can make even more money every few days or so.
My last play through I only had 12 NPC's with over half of them kids of the MC and a few of the girls and they are my fighting crew.
This way of playing gets you to learn how to play and so on.
Just remember that the main quest only move forward when you choose to work on it.
The only timed stuff is the debt but can be turned off by working on the main quest or pay it off its your choice.
