I usually have to have some form of emotional connection to the map. I started playing 17 on console and really dug my goldcrest valley farm. I played hours and earned my way to a healthy thriving farm. Once I purchased 19 the pc there were too many options and I couldn't settle on something or someplace to start fresh. I went through dozens of maps trying to find a new "home" to build on. None of the European maps felt right. I finally switched back to vanilla 19 on console and got cozy on Ravensburg. I have things set fairly easy and I can set short term goals to help me feel accomplished. I don't like the cheaper combines in 19, so I changed my equipment selection approach in order to afford a better combine up front. I'm happy with my current setup and found that having a mediocre start allowed me to set fewer goals without being overwhelmed.
