so lets conclude from all those comments below, u have to be chill while playing this game, u dont have to run after all tasks man, u dont have to complete the community needs so quickly, just chill, everything will be okay, let the passion flow up. why dont you try a normal life? water the crops in morning, collect artisans in 9 am, and go fishing till the dusk came down! then rest your dah by drop at Stardrop Saloon, and enjoy few drinks? Does this sounds normal? Dont get involved by all quests (although you know how to pass it) just chill, let your mind enjoy the game, and dont be obsessive about all things in this big games. got it? actually this game, allow us to choose our own way to enjoy (this is endless game, you will get nothing after complete all the tasks dont it?) so this stuff didnt force us to do all tasks, but choose the right tasks, to fulfill the part of our way in this game.

I absolutely agree with you.

I have over 1,000 hours in Stardew Valley. Every time I start a new farm, it's a bit different. I enjoy playing because I CAN play the way I want... and I can change what that means every time I play again. The town is full of all sorts of drama... but you have to get to know the characters better than on a casual level. SPOILER ALERT Shane is suicidal and tries to kill himself. Pam has a sad history that you find out about as you get to know her. Leah left her ex in the city and he won't leave her alone. Sebastian is trying to make a living so he can get away from Demetrius. Caroline and the Wizard had an affair and Abigail is the result. Every person has something and if you want to get to know them, you eventually learn it all. END SPOILERS I have never become bored with this game and it has often allowed me to relax and forget about all the things that I have to contend with in my life. I'm old (nearly 70) but I've enjoyed games since before I bought my first game machine... a Super NES. I still have it and all of the games... and they all still work and I play them every now and then... but Stardew Valley is where I go most often. - Lately I've been watching the new Animal Crossing and am thinking that it's another game I might play for a long time, but I have to buy the Switch to do that... and I'm wondering if the game will give me enough time and pleasure to make that purchase worthwhile. I've looked at other Switch games, but not one of them is appealing to me, so Animal Crossing would have to be a game I play a lot to make the price worthwhile. - Although I bought Minecraft, I never could get into it... mostly because I don't like the graphics. I gave up on Facebook a long time ago, but I did play Farm Town (not Farmville) when I was on there and I enjoyed it until it began to be more about "inviting friends" than it was about playing a simple farming game. That felt more like an MLM to me than a game, so I quit.

Well there's a video of an 88 year old lady with hundreds of hours in the game. Also I'd be surprised if you couldn't enjoy Super Mario Odyssey or Breath of the wild. You ever play Legend of Zelda Link to the past? One of my favorites. If you like that game you should enjoy Breathe of the Wild. And if you liked Super Mario 64 you'll love Odyssey. On the other hand, if you hated both those game....well, then the Switch don't have much for ya unless you don't like 2d Mario.

I never did like Mario or games like that although my sister and I sometimes played Mario Cart when I went to her place. The more I've seen of Animal Crossing, the more I think I'd put hundreds of hours into it and love it. So I'll probably get a Switch... but they are quite scarce right now, so it could be awhile. That's okay... I'm patient and I have to save for it anyway. I'll check Breath of the Wild out when I get a Switch. Thanks again.

You mention around 2:18 how nice it is to pop in Stardew and just slow down. Thing is, the first 4-5 times I've legit tried to play Stardew Valley, I never got past Fall of the first year. There's so much to do in the game that it always felt a bit overwhelming. I'd start to farm, then get a fishing pole and try to fisu, then get told about the community center...so I try to fill that up asap, then the mines open up and now I want to get down to the bottom as quick as I can. On top of the seasonal events, keeping NPC happiness up, filling up the museum, upgrading tools, and doing the Adventurers guild stuff. I legit got burnt out. Every save I started, I'd get to month 2 or 3 of the first year, and get tired and just quit. I always felt like I HAD to do everything as quickly as I could, and I'd get irritated if I missed something one month for the community center, or didn't have enough money to buy a certain event-specific item. I only recently started a new save after months of not playing. Figured with the newest updates, I might as well give it another shot. I'm only at the end of Spring on year 1, but I'm having more fun. I've decided to chill out. If I miss something, I miss it. No big deal, it'll be there next year. Like, I didn't even think to plant green beans, so I'm gonna miss them this year in the community center. But oh well. I'm also not rushing to do things constantly. Some days I'll just say fuck it and make it a lazy day where I just fish junk items for the recycler or something. Way more fun and relaxing this way.

Just got the game last week, so far been addicted. Don't usually play games like this one! I've been pretty chilled considering how overwhelming the game is. Just relax and do whatever the fuck you want! Try not to read many tutorials on the game I guess as that adds more to the overwhelming element just relax and have fun that's what I'm doing. If ye miss something? All good you can do it next year! Time is really on you're hands and how you want to spend it! I spent a whole day just organzing my chests no biggy, although wish I can take that and apply that in real life. Hope you're having more fun now more then ever dude!

I've been playing farming games since I discovered Harvest Moon on the GBC. I went to a funeral 600 miles away and this game (along with Pokemon) went with me. I had maxed everything out. I was like 9 then, but I still liked more hardcore games like Zelda as well as games like Harvest Moon/Story of Seasons.

Really enjoyed this video!! Might have to buy the game haha

this game is so deep despite looking so simple , I'm on year 5 and I still have goals to do ,got a garden full of pots with delux retaining soil so I don't have to water them then got a full 80 beehives in bottom of my island farm ,didn't even know I was gonna do such thing before starting 5th year,you would think after you are done with community center ,there is nothing else to do but then goals just keep flowing in this game then you keep adding mods and this game almost never ends ,some of the mods that actually truely shine after community center completion, is automation ,better junimo huts,lookup anything ,fast animations and the new expansion mod ridge side cliff village which adds a whole new town and people without messing with your main game like sve ,ofcourse I got like 30 more awesome mods too but some of these mods actually make the game last forever without getting bored

I’ve seen a lot of people talking about this game in my discord server saying it was really good. When I heard it was on switch I was ecstatic since I haven’t touched my switch in like a month and after watching this video I’m definitely going to get this game since it’s really not a lot of money for such a well made and good game.

I think sandbox games give the player a sense of conttol over the environment. You don't necessarily see this type of thing in non-sandbox games.

"Nothing that will get you down" Shane's route: 👀

I love Harvest Moon: Island of Happiness , so I figured that I’d like this game. The controls are kinda weird if you play via laptop, but I like the game overall.

As an FPS gamer who used to play Minecraft. This was an amazing experience. I read about this in a book called "Blood Sweat And Pixels" (amazing book btw) and it sounded interesting. Ever since my Gran always gave me money on Easter, Christmas and so on I decided to use that money to get this game on steam. I often got stressed playing FPS games and this game was relaxing and addictive for me. I immediately got flashbacks to my Minecraft days and I am now addicted. I highly recommend this game to any gamer. Edit: tip for beginners. Fish while your crops grow and get better rods. It is a good way to get money starting out.

Very well made and said, especially about the psychological warfare with micro-transactions

Pre-paid for the game before it came out...I had only watched a few beta testing...I was looking for a farming game, as I have enjoyed playing that kind of game now and then...I have not stopped playing this game...even now I will just jump on this game for the fun of it...

to me the thing thats so great about this game, is the massive nostalgia for the Harvest moon games it gives me. i still prefer Harvest moon in some aspects. but stardew valley certainly expanded upon the ideas of that game. i still think Harvest moon has the better characters and a better map though. also multiplayer, the fact you can play this with a total of 4 people is awesome.

10 hour trip coming up... I know what I’m doing for 10 hours straight 😃✋🏽

Great vid

bro I'm addicted to this valley 😭

The size of the farm plots gave me claustrophobia for some reason.

I think the reason why I like and play this game even more than animal crossing is just because there’s so much to do! You can farm, you can explore caves, you can start a family, you can build a town to perfection, it never ends! All of that combined with the fact that every cpu is different makes this game 10 times bigger then animal crossing ever could be. It’s also kinda pathetic how one man can make a better and more fleshed out game then fricken NINTENDO!!!
