It is a decision budget
The campaign’s thirty days create pressure, but the system is not a real-time timer that punishes pausing to read or walking around. The clock advances when the game presents meaningful time-bearing actions or consequences. That allows investigation before commitment.
Spend time deliberately
Read each displayed cost, keep a save before a major commitment, and decide whether the expected information, ally, route, or reward advances your current plan. Do not copy a completionist route blindly: quest order is part of the role-playing structure, and choosing not to act can also shape the story.
