You shouldn't feel pressured. Just do what you want when you want. The game gives us lots of things to do a day, right? But it doesn't tell us we have to do them. It's not like there's an endgame or even leaderboards. If we didn't have these daily things to do, the game would feel empty. The problem is, you're thinking about it like it's any other game. If you want to grab a couple of fossils, go get 'em. If you don't want to, that's fine. They replenish every single day and the only reward for getting them all is... that you have all of them and can look at them. Don't be in such a hurry to get everything. If I see a new bug, I'll catch it, but I don't set aside time to catch a certain amount of bugs to fill some imaginary quota.

Also, if you're worried about Nook Miles, those are also infinite. You don't have to complete all of the multiplier ones every day because they'll always be there. I have a great time popping in pretty much every day because I like to check both AM and PM turnip prices to add to my monthly log and to head to the Able Sisters' shop to see if there are any new clothes. I'm waiting for that day when a big pink bow shows up in the shop so I can finish my Aeris outfit. I missed out on Redd's art sale because I was planting roses and bushes I bought from Lief when the update happened. But I didn't care because he'll be back, at some point.

When I played New Leaf, I time traveled and made my town perfect and bought f***' everything I could get my hands on in about four weeks. I put the game down and picked it up one time two years later to see what was going on, but there was nothing to do because I already had everything. I decided that's not how I wanted New Horizons to go, so I swore off time traveling. Nothing wrong with it, I just figured I'd stretch my enjoyment out much more by doing what I wanted, then stopping. I'll get to art collecting at some point, but right now I care about clothing and my roses. I get Nook Miles passively by doing these fun things and I'm relaxed because everything is always there when I want to get back to doing it.

That's all fine and good, but my point is that unless you play the game every single day and fulfill your duty as mayor/only active villager by talking to people, cleaning weeds etc, it eventually becomes a miserable wasteland and your favorite villagers either get depressed or leave. It's like having an active social life and it's tiring.

love u all my sweet babies. i’ll miss this place very much.
