First and foremost, I love VV3 so far. But the lack of parental care, or even elder guidance truly bothers me. I've not noticed the adults tell stories to the children anymore. I like the teaching, which is very cleverly done. I'm not so sure that little boys would deliver turtle shells to the scientists immediately. (I rather think they would put them on their heads like hats and walk around trying to keep them on, or make a game of who keeps theirs on the longest gets to take all of them to the scientists. Inverted turtle shells also can float, so they could play sea-faring games with them.)

I've noticed in the teaching that there doesn't seem to be much medicine or science taught, nor childcare. And are these villagers eating all their fish raw? Lots and lots of sushi, perhaps! \:D I like the conical food bin, but am disappointed that everything is raw, and that the villagers no longer cook.

Thank goodness for that Hospital!!! It is amazing, and I love that most of all.Not having to drag villagers from plant to plant is a blessing!
