I'm not saying when we'll have it, just that I'm all for it when it does happen. :) I agree, I just learned the higher levels of animal kinship this time around and I want to wrangle piggies first.
the butterfly milker does work now, although it did seem a bit slow, i imagine the rates for such things are still being tweaked.
i managed to get almost every skill except the highest level of croppery and master breeder, which i'm learning now, not because i expect to finish it but because it's fun to keep seeing the counter ticking down on my home page (only 51 days, 19 hours, 47 minutes to go!). to be fair, there's not a lot there in the upper levels to test yet, as there's not many associated quests with these skills, and the added benefits so far are mostly just reduced energy costs, mood boosts, random gifts and bigger yields. so yeah, as much as i do enjoy not needing butterfly lotion, i definitely wouldn't mind a reset when tests resume next weekish or so.
ps, thousands of piggies? really? it would be good to have a maximum limit on the number of animals you can keep in your house so the commons don't get *too* tragic on a regular basis!
