How long is a year in this game?

Well it goes on for a long time. Because when you have married your husband for 50 years he gives you a cottage so I suppose it might be between that timeline.

A year is four seasons and each season is 30 days.

okay,
thanks

i think it will last up to 200 yrs when you got the letter.(probably no ones gonna get that far!)

Does anyone wish that the years were a little bit shorter? I think 20 days for a season would be a bit better. It just seems like this game lasts forever sometimes. XD

they should be shorter because now it will take
Forever to get the mountain house [I think]

From as far as I know the game is actually never ending itself. Just like FoMT the calendar stops counting once you've reached 99 or 100 years, but the game keeps on going. Your character doesn't die and I guess there's beauty to it that you don't have to start over again and again once you character dies like AWL. :]

Immortal_Life 4 evr -The mountain house takes 50 years of marriage before you could actually get it and that's total dedication to the game if you've played that long. ;D

Heh, I'd love the idea of 20 days or less in a season Linds, but those dreaded Pineapples needs to grow quicker if so! Those are my serious money maker plants. xD

Yeah, things are really dragged out in this game. The crops need to grow faster, and the seasons need to be shorter. Although, there might be less room for festivals and birthdays in that case. ^^;
