If you would have added a circle to the calendar to mark which day it was, had some type of indicator that shows you are here on the map, also allowed you to use the guide me function which was cute for also getting to the side areas like the forest and ponds, have controller support, have customization in the menu for the time progression boy did it move so fast, and also for the items you collected/scavenged for show you where you can find them or that it can only be collected if grown or from animals/fishing.
