Well I never did but it is literally required. The story in its entirety is not accessible in one play through. The game locks you out of certain events depending on what you do, no way around it. You’ll get the same overall story but there are side plots that you can’t see the first time unless you know how to access them… and you have to miss other parts of the story to do this.
I don’t think that is the same here. You aren’t getting a different story based on what you do. The game I believe has one single ending. It’s just that the story itself is so big that the way the side scrolling narrative function, you are meant to reply it so you can see it all. For example there is a fall festival with a bunch of mini games I recall that can be easily skipped or a party Mae can attend that can also be skipped.
To a degree, it's not meant to be played again. Part of the entire point of the narrative is to hammer home and how you can miss out on things and that choices have consequences.
By playing it again, you sort of undermine the very point of the story being told. By playing it again, you sort of undermine the very point of the story being told.
Found some "ant buffet" in the shop a few months ago and thought "Oh wow, did people learn that those are dying as well and you can buy something like bee hotels for them now?".
Bee hotels are for solitary bees/wasps/... though.
As far as I know all ant species are social, and they have no problem digging out huge nests just about anywhere. Not sure what kind of dedicated facility you could make that would make it easier for them, or if it would be useful.

Yes, that is still a branching narrative. They just meet back up at the end.

As a wolf-tiger-fox, nahhh fuck wasps. Bees aren't on speaking terms either but they aren't getting the long sleep. Yet.

Well, I just meant it was like bee hotels in that it's a product you can buy to help out critters. I did think it was food, as "buffet" suggests.
Whether food is meaningfully helpful for ants, no idea. Did not overthink it too much in the few seconds until I realized it was poison. 🫠
