10 Things I Love about Stardew Valley

Ойындар

I've had a lot of time to think about Stardew Valley while playing back through perfection for the 1.6 update (expect that video at some point!), and I wanted to talk about a lot of the parts of the game that I really thought hit the mark! Especially because before the update dropped, I made quite a few videos about what should change, so here's the positive opposite of that!
Sections:
0:00 - Intro
0:29 - Fishing Vibration
1:16 - Lists
1:48 - Good Menus
2:34 - More Unique Dialogue
3:32 - Fishing Skill Expression
5:38 - Item Catalogues
6:07 - Hats & Songs
6:59 - The Community

    Dude the new dialogue is EVERYTHING. The fact that during summer i had Lewis be like "Hey your melons are probably almost ripe now. Your grandpa's favorite dish had melons in it." and then Gus later was like "Lewis said your tomatoes ripened real well! Imagine a culinary world without tomatoes." Like im having to un-learn my speed click through of dialogue cause i feel like so much attention and love has been added

    I gave Krobus a loved book (Monster Compendium) and the custom gift dialogue was something like "Hey my friends are in here. Wait, is that me?" Alex also got a bunch of new egg dialogue. Love that for him Demetrius literally gave me his triple shot expresso after he heard I hatched a dinosaur egg. Accidentally donating the dinosaur egg before 1.6 kinda worth it now

    I love that Stardew has EXIT POINTS. At the end of every day is a perfect opportunity to put the game down. So many games don’t have anything like that, and encourage you to just keep playing non stop. I love that Stardew gives me the chance to put it down regularly.

    7:49 It's really worth mentioning that CA has been an extremely stand-up guy the whole way through as well. Dude is a total class act when it comes to dealing with bad circumstances (like with Chucklefish ages ago) and listening to the community. So many features specifically come from community feedback it's unreal. How many devs can you name who take time out of their day to help individual people fix their stardew saves when issues come up? I don't mean to put him up on a big ol pedestal or anything but I think he plays a big part in making the community one that for the most part truly stands out as an incredible example of a fandom executed well, and he definitely deserves credit for that. His status as a primarily solo act has also made it much easier for him to avoid controversy from stealing breast milk, lol.

    The community is definitely the best part of this game for me. Stardew is the only game I've actually joined the big discord for, because I wanted to get into modding, and I was terrified it would be a cesspit of garbage like most other big gaming communities are. It's law of numbers -- the more people you get in one place the more jerks you find. If there's 1 jerk to every 100 people, that's still a lot of jerks. Everybody in the Stardew Discord has been so incredibly sweet and welcoming, especially the modding and art communities, which I find tend to be the LEAST friendly to newcomers traditionally in fandoms. Basically every time I go into the modding chat it's full of people helping someone troubleshoot, or collaborative idea sharing, or people just complimenting each others' work. Absolutely phenomenal you funky little video game

    stardew valley is such a beautiful game. especially as someone who has a lot of hours in the sims 4, its just so refreshing to feel the dedication and love that has been put into stardew valley. 15eur up front and no money grab broken dlcs, only expansive free updates. i count more (and often game breaking) bugs in one sitting of the ts4 than i have ever experienced in stardew throughout my entire time playing it, and all bugs that i have experienced have since been patched. i started playing modded not long ago and there i also see such a difference between the two, it really is fixing and adding missing parts vs complimenting. the game feels whole and it has so many beautiful little thought out details and how many possible things there are to do, it feels so so polished. the genius it takes, to make a game that feels so whole and easy to follow but yet sets you free to do whatever you want. it lets you play at your own pace and in your own way. and its so nice to see CA reply to tweets of people bringing up issues they have and promising to get to fixing it immediately, and smapi telling me i need to remove a mod from my mod folder because the feature has been implemented into the game (esp after playing the sims which has been having the same major bugs for over half a decade, and only keeps introducing new ones, that you often even pay for, before fixing the already existing issues). its really exciting to play a game that feels so truly loved and cared for by its creator. i really hold this game so close to my heart

Like he isn't just copying from the modding community to make things official, he's coming up with this big ideas and giving unique things to them. Like Ginger Island is an obvious example, but the Mastery System in 1.6 is amazing. And I've seen some Mastery mods, sure, but none like what he did

    I think Stardew Valley is the ultimate comfort game not because of how relaxing it is (anyone inexperienced who is simultaneously checking 20 pages of the wiki to understand what to do will know that - I speak from personal experience on this) but because your progression ingame is literally a reflection of you, and because there's always a second chance no matter what mistakes you make. There's no rush to progress, no to do list constantly keeping you in the run unless you actively choose to add to it and take in responsibility. You can play and progress at your own pace. There's no game over system. Sure, you can die, you can lose money because of bad decisions of if you're like that one guy on the wiki who lost 200000 gold because Penny changed the wallpaper in the house and deleted all his calls of starfruit wine, but you can always recover. Even if you die, you wake up again and you always have another chance (god bless you Harvey, no amount of money is too much to pay when you literally bring me back from the dead). There's no bills, no pressure. The valley and the town never age. You can walk and talk and play for as long as you want, then step away satisfied knowing that there won't ever be a big deadline or pressure that you have to meet when you return - unless you voluntarily took up that deadline. It's the perfect formula for an addictive but ultimately peaceful and satisfying experience.

There's just something about the handheld controller that feels so much more seamless than the keyboard controls.... also, yea, the vibration is a huge bonus for fishing, especially since some of the bite sounds just blend into the rest of the game's background noise. You do not know how many times I've mistaken the natural sound of the water just blooping for my bite notification sound 😂😅

Your guides helped a lot, and it’s way easier to enjoy the game’s vibes when you have a clue what you’re doing.

    The "unmissable content" thing is actually something I'm a little mixed on - it's nice to know you can always get anything you missed later, but I also think there's something incredibly satisfying about making decisions that give you access to certain things while locking you out of other options, pushing yourself to achieve something in a certain manner that gives you a bonus, and so on. However, I don't think Stardew is not the right type of game for that, so the fact that there is so little content that can be permanently missed in Stardew specifically, is a big plus.

    If you've never tried them before get the Trap bobber. It's not 100% gonna get them for you but it does make it somewhat easier. It makes it so the bar goes down less when the fish isn't inside the space. Combine that with lv 10 fishing and it's way easier

    I recently returned to the game after many years (the last time I played, I loaded the game up just long enough to check out that new "witch's hut" thing), and your content has been the absolute BEST for getting back into things without getting too spoiled on the major changes that happened not just in 1.6, but in 1.5. I really like how you structure most of your videos so that I skip the endgame spoilers. However, I wish you would explain more basic things (been watching your series where you break down each skill), since it's been long enough that I don't really know all the things that "everyone knows." The wiki is great, but if there's something I don't know about, I can't just look it up, because I don't even know it's a thing. For example: I kept hearing all these references to Ginger Island and how it's the best place for farming, but no one ever said WHY. Ginger Island didn't exist the last time I played, so it took me weeks of snippets of random videos to finally pick up on the fact that it's like the greenhouse in that you can grow any crop regardless of season. Anyway, thanks for making high quality content. And if you ever want to make a "guide for people who haven't played since the base game and whose information is out of date", there's probably an audience for that!

    My personal favorite fishing combo is just deluxe bait, lead weight, master enchantment, and then cork bobber or quality hook to taste. The lead weight has to be the most underrated fishing rod attachment imo. Everyone talks about how good the cork bobber is, but I've lost more legendary fish hooks due to not being able to get the bar to stop bouncing off the bottom when they dive down than to not being able to keep the bar on them when they're bouncing around.

    This game makes me so happy. I like doing a bit of everything and being able to just tackle things at different speeds is so nice. I have a small group of friends that I love playing with because it's so wholesome to have us all running around going "I just saw your romance partner over there" with us all having unique playstyles. We are all joking about one player yearning for the mines, while I go hunting secrets, and another loves the animals. I'm their encyclopedia and can find them odd resources or help complete funny quests, and we're all just vibing in happiness. And while my fav hats so far are Wearable Dwarf Helm and Witches Hat, I have also found so many others, like the leprechaun hat (SO BEAUTIFUL) and lucked into a perfect arrow quiver trinket. I have found *one* other missable thing: *spoilers for a new event* Green rain year one *spoilers* Demetrius's hazmat suit, I have only seen it in the first year. I have also made sure everyone around me has seen it because it was so funny

    since you mentioned it, legend II farming is INSANE i found that my go-to build was deluxe bait with a trap bobber and a quality bobber. with the angler and artisan professions and the new fish smokers plus tent kits to save time, i was able to catch twenty-five iridium quality legend II, which after smoking and skill bonuses rounds out to... 1.05 million gold. in three days.

    I think there is one other permanently missable item, unless there was a way to get it in added in 1.6. The Boat painting was ONLY obtainable from fishing at a specific spot on the Beach farm. Its a shame because I usually romance Elliott, and I like to have the boat painting as like an "our first date" memory.

    Though I played with mods for 1.6, I easily cruised through Fall of Year 2 in just a week and a half of playing, already 110 hrs in. The new stuff to optimize like dehydrators and fish smokers tacked on so much fresh air into making money. 2 years and 570 hours later and its by far the best 15 dollars I’ve ever spent.
