I kinda dislike Shane’s arc that people apparently like so much because it is a depressed addict being fixed by someone, effectively Depression and addiction are two things that nobody but the sufferer can “fix” because they are lifelong struggles that will continue no matter what your “fixer” happens to be doing that day. Environment and support structures are very important but the actual work and effort to self improve must be the sufferer’s responsibility and Shane doesn’t do the whole responsibility thing very well at any point.

I haven't played this for a few years but am thinking about starting a new game. Is there a guide or checklist somewhere with everything you need to get for bundles/events listed by season? I remember in my first playthrough there was a bunch of stuff I missed year 1 and had to wait until year 2 and it really set off my ocd.

This is where I feel like there's a joke along the lines of #WhenRobin , but I also worry the internet has already made that horrible and creepy (and don't want to check) A shame there's a mechanic reward behind marriage. Can Krobus give you a Stardrop too? @Bakanogami : The stardew valley wiki is pretty good at most things, and/or the steam guides probably have something like that. Or go remixed community centre as an excuse for getting it wrong.  EDIT : https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1269852282 From googling stardew valley bundles by season.

I do think it could go to better lengths to show that, though.

Hey did Alex's mom kill herself? Because they don't come right out and say it, but Alex says "my dad left and then my mom got sick and died," and his grandma kept a note that says "I'm sorry, don't be upset, I'm with Yoba now." Obviously it's ambiguous but I get a pretty strong vibe that she "got sick" with suicidal depression.

Decided I'll start a new farm on SD when the Switch update hits. I may marry Penny as I've yet to see her character story. Leah always comes across as more interesting.

I remember in my first playthrough there was a bunch of stuff I missed year 1 and had to wait until year 2 and it really set off my ocd. I found a pretty good one on steam, but there's a few caveats I want to mention. First, it's (usually) not possible to complete the community center in the first year without cheating - some of the seeds you need (Red Cabbage being the biggest culprit) can only be bought on year 2+. The traveling cart sells random things which can include the year 2 and out-of-season goods, which allows you to finish some things early sometimes. Second, with the new patch (if you're playing on PC) there's now option to use a semi-randomized set of community bundles when starting a new game. The guide I linked won't really help you there, you'll just need to have the wiki open if you really want to be sure you don't miss something (especially fish). You can even set it to require only items available in the first year, which may be exactly what you want. As for events, I think everything important is marked on the calendar in the square and has a reminder message when it's time to go to the festival or whatever. The only really missable thing is a scene with Sam and his brother on the beach, which can only be done before Winter year 1. I can't think of anything else that's really time-sensitive the first year, aside from the usual seasonal crops, fish, and foraging. I guess the mechanics of the Luau and Grange Display are something you may want to look up in advance if you don't mind spoiling yourself on the mechanics.

In 1.5 you can also play original community centre, and tick a box so the travelling cart is guaranteed to sell you a red cabbage seed (in time to grow it?) allowing a year 1 complete. Don't know if the savegame analyzer for the cart still works how it used to if you want to super geek out.

I think you might need the greenhouse for it since I haven't found the red cabbage yet and its almost fall already. 99% sure I haven't missed a single traveling cart check.

I'm amazed Clint was an option at all. I don't know which would be more appropriate; Clint remaining the one adult you can't date as all the others get romance options added, or him being dateable but spending the whole relationship pining for Emily even after you're married.

Since we've apparently got someone working on the game here, it's time to inundate them with implausible suggestions and then ruthlessly argue over their prospective values, so with enough pressure we can possibly make some diamonds out of so much coal. Mine would be the ability to built up the town a bit. I've heard of the community overhauls that upgrade the trailer into a house, that's kind of what I'm thinking. Maybe open an art place in town where you can buy leah's art or display something you've found in the mines for some cash, or someone else with a farm that you can help out with random tasks and they eventually get up and running, and then you unite and force pierre to pay more for goods. Or an event where access to outside world gets shut down and you have to grow enough food for the whole town for like a week, with warning so you can build up to it (but that might be too dark). PS: Thanks for your efforts at making this game, it's really great and it's hard to come up with things to improve it since yous've already thought of everything
