So the first time the season changed and the first time I'd ever seen the fairy coincided. It really looked like the bitch killed all my crops. Of course, I realized it was the season changing that actually did it, but it REALLY looked like I was visited by the crop murder fairy.

Still Dope posted:This game looks interesting, but I have one question: Can you build an entirely vegan farm i.e. no animals being held captive, forcefully impregnated (raped) and murdered? My biggest gripe with these kind of games is the fact that they often involve animals being hurt. I had a classmate who raised cows and called butchering cows "harvesting" them. I don't have any point to this, you just reminded me of it somehow.

rotinaj posted:Update: I got a little bit better at fishing. I still suck at it. I just hate how the bar is trying to drop the whole time, while clicking it makes it go up, so all the advice of "click+hold" seems counterintuitive. It's just a tricky balancing act. If you don't click FRANTICALLY, just click click click with... I don't know, gentle, slower clicks? you can hold it very steady. Click and hold gets it up, slower clicks float it in place. Also, get the lead bobber thing. That way, those fish that jerk around are easier because you can just let the thing plummet to the bottom and not worry about having to control its bounces.

The thing that extra annoys me is that there is a wide world of fruits that he could have picked that weren't tomatoes. But he happened to find tomatoes specifically. How many oranges, apples, grapes, pears, etc did you pass before you lit on tomatoes, Demetrius? Were things not arranged in an order that groups fruits and vegetables, like often happens in stores? Why did you pick the tomatoes specifically?

Demetrius can be neurodivergent all he likes, no excuse for treating his stepkid like crap. And man, have you seen the marriage dialog? His comments about his family are along the lines of "it's nice to not have people nagging at me constantly" and "they must be glad I'm gone." poo poo's depressing!

I basically ended up uninstalling all the extra NPC mods right after starting them. Ridgeside is insanely overwhelming. SVE didn't have the best first impression with the overly stupid MAGA neighbor who immediately gives me strawberry seeds and the cosplaying overly shy pink hair girl who immediately offers to sell me sprinklers (???). SVE had some stuff that looked interesting, but I could really have done without the actual characters. And East Scarpe seemed just kinda empty, like a big area of locked doors. NGL, I didn't give Ridgeside even half a chance, I saw the number of NPCs and went "holy god" and yanked it. Maybe the writing is good! But that initial walkthrough of the area was... a lot. Really a lot.

I don't necessarily want to bang any of them, but it's weird that Marlon only ever comes out around festivals and Gunther's glued to his desk. The execution was just lacking, and I could REALLY do without the weird MAGA guy and the pink haired girl. Yeah, I have anxiety too, I've never dove behind a plant because I saw another human.

It's almost immediately, and you get a free sprinkler with more able to be purchased almost immediately too. (In hindsight, maybe it was star related?

And even though Emily/Shane wasn't intended it still kinda works since she works at the saloon that he frequents daily. He's also the alternate in Clint's events.

Rythian posted:Okay, one final big one to break my top 5 even more: I can't even imagine playing the game without Stardew Valley Expanded anymore. There's just so much good stuff added, feels like an expansion pack really. New areas, quests, loads of interesting and cool content. Maybe the new characters aren't your jam (I think they all have pretty good arcs as you get more hearts with them), but you could always ignore them or gift them rocks to piss them off like people do to Clint or Pierre. I mean, you say that, but if they aren't your jam, then a whole bunch of vanilla characters have dialog by the same writers. If the new characters stick out like a sore thumb to me, are the rewritten/added-onto vanilla characters and probably also the quests going to ALSO not be my jam?

Freezing indoors helps. I ended up adding one second onto how long a ten minute tick lasts and it's surprising how much work that one second did to making the time passing feel better.

LLSix posted:I always found adding time to the days made them too long. A lot my games end before the end of the first winter, and I've only had one make it all the way to the end of the second year. I feel like that depends on how you play. Like me and Khanstant feel stress at the particular amount of time a day takes, so lengthening it a little makes the experience more comfortable. If that's not a problem you have, it'd probably be a bad thing, yeah. Luckily, the Timespeed mod is SUPER easy to just turn on/off and modify, so it's easy to find a comfortable spot or decide that it's not for you and remove it.

Once you can call the horse anywhere the extra speed is nice, and I guess you give it coffee when you drink some because it also benefits from that. As if horses need anything to make them more nervous.

When you marry Sebastian, he basically seems like the City wasn't really the thing he wanted. He's happy just like... not being shut up in the basement and knowing there's a guy upstairs who kicks over his snowmen. And when he was single, going to the city seemed like the best way to get away from that.
