I would second this. I just discoverd the game and the counting of time makes the game feel MUCH grindier and tiring. I think it would be a huge quality of life upgrade if time passed without the clock counting. (or have it be lightning quick so I'm not sitting there and closing my eyes until the dark screen on my laptop lights up again). I appreciate more than four time periods, based on activities. It's just the watching time pass. It's kinda like choosing to have the game run on a dial up modem and waiting for webpages to load again.
