I agree with expanding this game before going on to VV2 (which I'd also love). It just seems a shame to go through "growing" and training your villages and have it just stop so soon. Although the time spent gaining tech points might take a while, the actual game "action" could use more challenges, tasks, puzzles, etc. And please - if there's a way we could now how much longer moms would be nursing, it would help plan - at least help me! I'd love to see a child born bright enough - or put all that curiosity to good use and finally catch on to how to pick a mushroom after all those times of being plopped down on one he/she is practially standing on! I think my village is heading for disaster this time around anyway (yes, I've finished it before) - I have in my second generation 7 males and only 2 females. Guess the gals will just have to get used to staying home - barefoot and pregnant. Shame to put all that potential to waste. Another thing which bugs me - how about changing the "breeder" status to parent status perhaps - then they don't sound like livestock or slaves. Overall, I love it, though! More, please!
