SMH at anyone who doesn't meticulously shake every tree with their net out before hitting any of them with an axe.

I've still gotten stung doing this. I don't know if I just missed the tree or what. :tinfoil:

I was a bit miffed that Tom Nook made me craft the first bridge, but then I wasn't allowed to use the recipe again, but it sounds like I'm not far from being able to get more bridges, so that's good! I also wonder if there's any downsides to sticking one of the new plots up on the raised section (like will the villager that gets that plot be "stuck" up there in terms of where they can wander?) I know I get ramps soon too, it's just more of a "I wonder what's going to happen?" thing.

Also, how does the shooting star stuff work?

e: Also, drat, some real bad takes on Stardew last page.

I keep getting the same 2 islands when I go out. I want the tarantula island now that I know the trick for taming them :(

Also Harvey is awesome, I wish I had some AC Amiibos to take advantage of his weird sex dungeons photo rooms.

SDV is good if you are the kind of psychotic person who gets enjoyment from massive automated farms producing millions of dollars worth of fruit & wine (like me)
SDV is bad if you want a game with likeable characters

Also Nook has given me the cool white picket fences, but I was expecting them to be a craftable item. Do these become a learnable item to craft later, or do you have to purchase them?

He sends you the DIY recipe for them afterwards and you can get others via nook miles.

What are the flowers they sell at resident services? I’m on an island with some flowers I don’t have yet and i’m trying to determine which of the 3 colors of pansy I don’t need to bring home.

Groovy, thanks :)

I can get stone fences and iron fences, but I don't like their aesthetics very much at this point.

Also someone mentioned you can customize the basic wood furniture. How do we do that?

I'm also very glad that I have an indoor crafting table now. I've taken my lovely outdoor stump one and put it on an elevated part of my island where I'm anticipating my tools to break. It'll save me some time from running all the way back home to make something.

I don't believe the residents actually care where they can wander

Okay, I just found a recipe for a bamboo wand. It's a tool, but when I try to use it it just says "You haven't registered any outfits". Anyone know what the deal with that is? How do I register an outfit?

Can... can I do a magical girl transformation with it??
if this game literally has magical girl wands it'll be a serious contender for Game of the Decade

If you're able to travel you can visit pretty much any goon (myself included) and they'll give you one along with a ladder.

If you have fences, then tomorrow Nook should tell you to talk to him about customising furniture.

I've seen videos, you can swap between outfits almost like the tool ring.

Well. After a string of super boring and generic island tours I just got one that was covered in pink and blue hybrid windflowers, peacock and emperor butterflies and a pond full of koi!

I love this game! :neckbeard:

oh poo poo I also placed a house on a raised section and wonder if the villager will be stuck there now.. hmm

also, this might be a dumb questions but those are the only questions I got so: what does it mean when it says "out" beside your friend's name? i assume that they're on another island?

I have decided that tarantulas are actually quite annoying

they rely on visual cues to know when to approach and when to stop, but the camera makes it impossible to see the lil' fuckers if they're anywhere near a tree
(which is especially galling when you realize that in certain areas the game will pan all the way up to a top down view, but refuses to let you do that all the time)

Hello!
My Dodo Code is K8PTV. I have a bridge and set up a fun spot with hay beds. I have apples and cherries. Anyone who has pears is invited to come so long as they give me those sweet pears. I will be spending my time trying to build the stupidest poo poo I can imagine.

Edit: If you give me stupid furniture I WILL add it to the island as soon as I get it.
