Hello yall im currently on my first playthrough of rainworld on survivor and i am having a great time. ive traveled from outskirts to industrial, to chimney, to sky islands, to farm array, and ive now arrived in subterranean. im loving the game but i do feel like ive missed somethings ive gotten my first and only echo in farm array by a stroke of luck but i feel like ive missed lots of those echos already, is it okay to travel from region to region exploring tons but not really gaining anything except for crazy bursts of happiness when i killed my first and only bird or is there something to get in every region? and is there a general direction i should follow now that ive entered subterranean?

Its nonlinear do whatever you want

Yeah like Igna said there's no set path and thus no "correct" way to play the game

You can explore every single rock you find or you can rush through regions it's completely up to you
