Topic: Stardew Valley

@NaviAndMii God I hate that Blacksmith. He's got nothing to say, charges too much, and takes too long with your tools. He can **** off as far as I'm concerned.

I don't know the answer to your question. Because I haven't done any upgrades. Because the Blacksmith's a ****.

I'm intrigued and want to get this, but how's the chance for a retail release?

And how polished is the Switch version?

I've gotten very cautious, as certain releases I'm very interested in unfortunately have plenty of bugs or can crash (Kingdoms: New Lands, Golf Story, and Butcher may be great games, but I'm hearing they have a number of technical issues) so I hold off buying them until they're patched to an acceptable level (and hopefully brought to retail).

Is Stardew Valley on Switch oozing Nintendo quality or is it riddled by the bad coding plague many games suffer from these days?

It seems to have some bugs that need to be worked on, but it also seems they are working on them.

So maybe you can wait a bit until the first patch comes along.

@gcunit You might be a little too invested in the game haha.

@gcunit Haha! I know what you mean! I'm gonna have to bite the bullet and risk an upgrade eventually...

I might hold off until the next change of season, when my seasonal crops will have wilted, so at least I won't have so much to lose - and maybe I can use those days to focus on other projects or something...but if JojaMart ever bring a Blacksmith to town, I'll be only too happy to give them my hard earned coin instead - no matter how sterile and soulless they may be!

If it makes you feel any better, the blacksmith will never find love.

And you can actually marry his crush.

Dang that sounds messed up. Who is the blacksmiths crush?

My main concern is the controls. They don't seem consistent. I would at least like a controller guide until I get the hang of it.

@Fooligan Emily.

@Meowpheel You be postin' spoilers?

@Meowpheel Yeah I just found out by talking with him. He told me what gem she likes most. I thought "Ahh, that's who you like."

It isn't really a spoiler. It's like his second favorite topic.

As Fooligan found out.

(You can also see him creeping around her in several festivals I think)

@Meowpheel Yeh, well... just watch your step...

Though seriously, put that stuff in tags and I love you. Don't... and you can go and hang out with the Blacksmith.

Alex's grandpa dies in year 2.

Guess I'll have to stop looking at this thread. Apparently people can't stop posting spoilers.

Hehe, that was just a joke.

It's not in year 2.

@SKTTR Well, the Xbox1 and PS4 versions got physical releases I believe, so there might be a chance for a Switch physical version.

Stardew is so good... but the fishing is so very, embarrassingly bad. It's so fun to complete the bundles, but to make a sixth of them about fishing... why? If I were a reviewer I would hurt the game for this. It feels just so ruinously awful trying to control the little bar with mashing, 1/6 of the game built around the worst Mario Party minigame imaginable.

@KirbyTheVampire It’s a thread about the game, what do you think we are going to talk about?

I still don’t get why people hate it or find it hard. I have only lost 3 fish and I fish most days, I think it’s great, it’s a fun mini game.

Spoiler tags exist.
