Stardew Valley

there are farmers on Anon Babble who sold their soul to Joja

Explain yourselves, traitors.

some people just want to watch the world produce low priced carbonated drinks

Graveyard Keeper is better.

jas

Every yank did this
Their religion is mass consumption and jews

Better on mobile playing in your bed lying down yet it's dead and abandoned on mobile platform.

Heck, Stardew Valley is best played the same way on your phone too. I just don't like the tumblrina character splash sprite.

inb4 mod it with Harvest Moon sprites

yeah.. I'll play the O.G or even GBA's TOMT if I want to play an actual Harvest Moon... but there's just something in Stardew that expanded upon it. like the ease of accesibility or UI QOL

Doing it to spite the shithead general store owner is pretty based, to be honest.

never went down the joja route
what are the in-game implications of selling out to them?

the owner lets you bring her preteen daughter home with you every other night

its a game, its fun
if you play it for the parasocial stuff you might just be more autistic than the minmaxers

The communikty center is a woke leftist bio eco envoiremental and climate friendy "save le heckin endangered animals" option, while Joja is BASED right wing anti woke and climate destroying, polluting and animal killing option!
Also pierre is an asshole and Lewis is a stupid idealist who clings to old obsolete values.
It's tikme for humanity to advance from the middle ages and show mother nature who is boss.
The Joja development form helps the economy of the value and human advanvcement.

Jased.

Playing for the first time, this is my farm currently and year 2 is about to begin. The house is upgraded with the kitchen.

I'm enjoying the game but I wish combat was actually serious and you could die if not careful, these slimes and insects are a joke.

it makes sense for long term sustainability
what, you think lewis could upkeep the town after the farmer picks it back up?
and what's gonna happen when you're gone, and your kids don't want to pick up the farm? bank on whoever replaces lewis to be good at running a town?

I'm enjoying the game but I wish combat was actually serious and you could die if not careful, these slimes and insects are a joke.

Without spoiling too much, there are more dungeons than the mines.
Just wait 'till you see the later ones.

joja is happy to do things for me if i give them money. they dont require me to do a bunch of ridiculous and pointless tasks at the community center just to improve the town. i fail to see how joja are the bad guys

Install the proper mod and cuck him.

fucking over the one ace in the hole that the republic has against the empire

Disregard your local community
Stand firm with the needs of the greater nation at large

There are no in game implications. All it really does is give you faster access to the greenhouse and ginger island as you don't have to wait for each seasons CC bundles

fighting over unfaithful goods

he's already being cucked anyway

Wish the combat was more serious

Sounds like someone hasn't been going to skull cavern the desert. The base mines are a cake walk compared to them

I tried getting online on the switch version but after 2 hours nobody seems to have connected?

Does that version not have drop in & out multiple player?

Without spoiling too much, there are more dungeons than the mines.

Oh, that is good to know.

It took me until Winter to figure out I have to complete the stuff at the Community Center in order to unlock more content. I spent almost all of year 1 just tending to the farm, trying to fulfill requests and wooing Haley.

I found this sword on a treasure chest while fishing and no other weapon at the adventurer shop has come even close so far, I kill stuff in one hit with it. The deepest I went in the mines was level 37.

37

Oh your in for a treat just remember to bring a fishing pole after you reach floor 100 to get a lava ell

stock up on bombs and breeze through the mines

Yeah I'll stop wasting time doing fuckall and try to actually finish the Community Center and get as far as I can in the mines now.

nta but aren't they super good at finding ore too?

I tried this game after having it hyped to me by people on Anon Babble but it's complete dogshit. It convinces me people who claim X is better than SDV people are all full of shit.

Capitalism, ho!

Is there any way to get the dog to shut the fuck up without having to mute all animal sounds or get rid of it if making it shut up is not possible?

its ok but it feels unfinished, like half the game is missing

Year 2, finally seeing some green again for a change.

Slimes and insects? Sounds like you haven't gotten very deep in the mines. The early levels of the mines are not intended to be that risky because without copper ore and other basic minerals you get from the mines it's pretty hard to do anything on the farm. It gets harder the deeper you go, and more enemies get introduced once you hit certain checkpoints. If all you're fighting are slimes and insects for the most part it sounds like you haven't hit the first major checkpoint yet.

It took me until Winter to figure out I have to complete the stuff at the Community Center in order to unlock more content.

Did you just never go back to the CC after visiting the wizard about the mysterious writing?

You can actually move the dog house at the wood cutter shop

When is somebody going to make rune factory 4 but better including dragon lolibaba romance?

Is that the farm where monsters can spawn at night?

That's the default farm, anonymous.

I wanted the achievement

no it isn't

It looks like the normal farm.

It's Jas!

The mines are generally quite harmless even if you are undergeared.
It gets dangerous in the (SPOILERS) Skull Cavern where enemies start doing serious damage and dodging them is difficult due to the way your character moves. The strict time limit doesn't exactly help. I haven't yet figured out how to do the Skull Cavern without taking any damage.

I'm enjoying the game but I wish combat was actually serious and you could die if not careful, these slimes and insects are a joke.

Bro you are in for a rough time when you get deeper into it. Some of the late game caves are ridiculous and I still have PTSD from them. They're fucking relentless.

I remember trying to bliz into the desert dungeon at launch with the elf dagger for kicks & getting shredded

I baked hundreds of pink cakes and I keep chugging trough them when I visit the more dangerous caves.

However the hardest part of the game is by far Journey of the Prairie King. It's like a real Arcade game, except you can't keep feeding quarters. Don't know what they were thinking when putting that into an otherwise casual game.

The mines are generally quite harmless even if you are undergeared.

Red slimes actually hit pretty hard. And can spawn in groups. With a low level weapon you're gonna be swatting at them for a while because of how tough they are, and if even one gets past your guard it will chunk your hp. I wouldn't really call this "difficult" but it's definitely more "challenging" in the sense that combat wastes a lot more of your time which makes it harder to progress or gather the resources you want. Also having to carry healing items takes up space in the backpack, so the game basically encourages you to git gud and not take damage so you can carry more. You eat BEFORE going into the mines to improve luck / speed / mining and then do your best to not get hit, eat cave carrots for energy.

these threads don't get that much traction anymore do they?

Game's almost a decade old and there's a mod on Anon Babble that actively suppressed discussion of it for years, so there was no permanent SDV community able to develop here, really. There's a SDV thread on Anon Babble but it's very slow as well, and mostly about discussing mods.

It was my second run and i figured i could get the Cheevo?

Neptune's glaive is a pretty good find early game, but its outclassed by stuff you find later.

Journey of the Prairie King is very easy after you see someone beat it once, since the order of upgrades you buy is the most important thing.
I probably played like 6 hours or more of Junimo Kart without beating it. The final level gets me every single time, and even the ones before it can be pure bullshit because they're random.

I never thought Stardew Valley could get my adrenaline going but going super deep into skull cavern for the first time had me wired.

As soon as it started raining IRL, I get a rainy day in-game.

Sounds like you haven't gotten very deep in the mines.

Level 37 is the farthest I've been, it's difficult to navigate because it gets too dark. I've fought bats and a weird stone skeleton thing as well but only at levels 30+, it's mostly slimes and insects otherwise.

Did you just never go back to the CC after visiting the wizard about the mysterious writing?

No

Standard farm.

kino
shit like this is why i boot up skyrim during snow days

I rebuilt the Community Center, but now I don't really know what to do with the rest of Year 2.

Also, Pierre is a bitch, I'm gonna fuck his wife.

it's difficult to navigate because it gets too dark.

Ah right, you might not know but there are magic rings you can wear and one of them emits light, it's called the Glow Ring. Finding it is basically RNG but the deeper you go the more likely you are to find it, especially with boosts to luck. You can also find them from fishing treasure chests. A better version of it is the Glowstone Ring which combines a glow ring's effects with a magnet ring's effects (increases pick-up radius for items), and the best thing about the Glowstone Ring is that you can craft it starting at Mining skill level 4, though it requires materials you won't have access to if you're not able to at least get to level 51.

To me Joja was just the easier way to unlock stuff while I optimized my money grind farm. If you wanna play stardew like a woman you can still do the other route

Make kegs or jars

Rebuilding the community center is where the rest of the game's content finally unlocks. By that point you're free to spend most of your time in the desert, plus you have Ginger Island to explore.

Caroline can fucking get it.

What's up with these married women all being so attractive?

What are the best content mods?

dogshit boring grinding game

game is about getting away from your soulless corporate job to start a new life getting in touch with nature in the countryside

choose to get in bed with the exact same corporate you escaped from and turn your grandpa's farm into the same kind of soulless money making machine you worked for

I don't get it either.

Bros I just started this but my autism causes me to overthink and feel like I'm fucking something up. I've got a small farm and a few crops and I'm mostly focusing on clearing out trees and such. How do I unlock the caves?

It has to be on purpose, right!? All the Best Girls in this game are already taken, it's shenanigans, all of it!

The cave on your farm or the mines?

It's been over a year since the last update. Most people have played and moved on. If ape decides to make a 1.7 it might pick up but until then it's hit or miss

i can't on good conscious take jodi away from kent

The C-team mod is unironically better than nearly any NPC mod on Nexus.

Harvest Moon/Story of Seasons

you can't marry the MILFs

Rune Factory

you can't marry the MILFs or the dragon

Stardew Valley

you can marry another man BUT YOU STILL CAN'T MARRY THE MILFS

The mines unlock in the first week of the game. Wake up, water your crops, clear some trees and what not then put all the wood, fiber, stones etc into a chest, and leave your farm to explore. There's 3 different exits from your farm by the way. The main one that leads to Pelican town, to the east, but also a northern path up to the mountains and a southern path to Cindersap woods. Try taking each of these exits to explore and see what you find.

The mines are located up in the mountains, past Robin's house (the redheaded woodcutter you meet at the start). If you try going to the mines past Robin's house before they open up you'll find the path blocked by a landslide and being cleared out by workers. You'll receive some kind of notice in the mail when the cleanup is finished.

OK, that's fair, there's still Marnie. Mayor Lewis won't even hold hands with her in public, the fat fuck.

What made you choose Jas over all the other options?

She's already pretty unique as is with the little personality she has in vanilla, but the mod elevates her to 10/10 daughterwife material.

all the other options?

Why other little girl characters exist in SDV?

Jodi has a funny sex scene in the mod

figure Clint might enjoy a gem as a birthday gift, since he is a blacksmith and works with gems

give him a quartz

"This makes me depressed"

Quartz isn't really a gem. Clint actually does like precious gems, though. Emeralds, rubies, etc. He also likes Jade, too. Strangely enough, Willy likes Quartz as a gift.

Which mod?

What's the location for octopus & sturgeon again was it the mountains lake or the small pond near the traveling merchant stall always get them mixed up?

Sturgeons are found in the mountain lake (by Robin's House / the mines) only in summer and winter, during the daytime (morning or afternoon). Octopi are caught anywhere in the ocean during the summer, but only in the morning. I think you can catch them as late as 1 or 2 PM, but after that nothing. Be warned, Octopi are VERY hard to catch at a low fishing skill and low quality rod. They will filter you at first. Sturgeons are also fairly challenging but more achievable without high level fishing skill and gear.

Incidentally here's a chart for fishing, though it's years old so might not have evrything on it.

I just found his reaction hilarious.

The people at Pelican Town are the nicest in the world until you gift them something they happen to not like, then they are like "Fuck this garbage" which is funny as fuck.

Yeah that is true. I like Emily's negative reactions.

Xtardew

I don't see it on moding haven unless it has another name

Sandrock

you CAN marry the milf

even though she is hot, she is one of the worst girls

I found out that posting burly men makes cunnytards lose interest in the thread.

Which stardew valley sex mod works with an alternative portrait pack that actually looks appealing.

I thought it would result in cheaper seed prices, but they cost more that Pierre's?

it made no sense. filled my whole body with cringe.

i prefer hardcore farmsims

he didn't pick the cat

he picked the worst pet

Shiggy.

Beautiful

Bitch what the fuck are you gonna cook with just eggplant and corn? I rather eat out the garbage than whatever the hell you're cooking up.

Jokes on you pal I like both

i've been away for like a year, how's the mod scene goin after the update?

Thanks anon that will be a huge help next to my six apple trees come fall!

cat

Thanks but I'm not a faggot.

go to build a shed in Stardew

"give me some wood"

chop down a dozen trees

"thanks it'll be done in a few days"

VERSUS

go to build a shed in Graveyard Keeper

"I need an entire forest worth of wooden planks, three notorious carpenters that'll only work for you if you beat their gay little fetch quest, and the skeleton of a man that died while wearing purple shoes"

chop down half a tree

"oh BTW you need to process every individual piece of wood at the lumbermill, which will only work for you if you serve chicken Alfredo to the priest on a Wednesday"

"to cook chicken Alfredo you need to raise five chickens. To raise chickens, you need a chicken coops. Talk to Asmodius the Ass-Raper if you wan-"

Every single thing in that miserable game is exactly that tedious. Fuck your chore of a game.

Only cucks pick the dog because they like to fantasize about their wife cheating on them with the dog.

He really knew exactly what he was doing writing Caroline & then not having the player able to win her over,she even gets her own "sad" theme in the tea house behind the general shop!

is it actually? they gave me a review copy to stream and it was definitely fun at first, but quickly devolved into a muddled mess. it didn't feel like sandbox yet had no clear direction. the wiki was shit, too. has it improved since release?

did anyone ever make a mod that allowed you to move things around in your workyard and crypt without dismantling and replacing each item

old expansion mods are all dead (SVE is finished, RSV has no big updates planned for the foreseeable future, East Scarp is getting one possibly final big update)

new expansion mods are hyper pozzed

newer NPC/content mods have regressed back to 1.5 days and now use a gorillion dependencies/frameworks just for one extremely niche feature each

anon mods are on the cutting edge of cool new features while Nexus fags are still playing catch up (we have an anon-exclusive framework for CGs while they have nothing)

the official SDV pisscord is now actively slandering lewd mods for straight men and trying to stop them from getting more popular than their gay mods (the FtM troon author behind the Diverse Stardew mod tried to claim the korean big booba mod inspired by an anon mod is AIshit while promoting her mod at the same time, thankfully it failed with the former riding the frontpage to the end while the latter fell out like a bitch)

the death of Free Love has been a massive blow, we're STILL stuck with the buggy as fuck literal troon alternative and it doesn't look like that's changing anytime soon

NPC Adventures being deader than dead because the troon author (notice a pattern here?) refuses to make it open source also stings hard

Making mods is infinitely better now but while options have expanded, the community has taken a sharp turn for the worse. I fucking hate in here.

hagfags crying and bitching for years about the lack of hag mods

meanwhile lolichads have been creating their own mods and OC for years, inspiring even more anons to make their own mods or joining the SV community
