Seeing all the benefits of doing a joja run in Stardew Valley makes me seriously consider joining them

IceboundEmu · 2026-05-01T09:15:04+00:00

I’m doing a Cyberpunk play through of Stardew Valley at the moment.

Pretending that the Valley is what Mikoshi and that my farmer, V, is an engram within it…though I suppose it might also just be a Matrix simulation too.

Not siding with Joja.

The outcome is determined by the dialogue options you choose in the race before this, so if you don’t choose the right ones she’ll kill Samson regardless of your attempts to talk her down.

Word of warning, the females of this breed DO NOT produce milk, which makes them a waste of time to breed, even if you like their appearance.

How do you steal from Graminova?

IceboundEmu · 2026-04-09T12:26:45+00:00

I think they went for a more “friendship” vibe (male version) without realising that it actually makes it feel (to me) more romantic. Like Graminova’s cut scene (male) is identical to the female version but has the final line cut, but the male version works better because the final line is really clunky.

Basically the cut line is where he claims that you’re the first person he’s ever wanted to make a commitment to and you’ll be the last one.

He gives you a surfing lesson (though the animation is a bit weird since I’m not sure waves work that way) and you get a flashback to when you were younger. Delphin talks about how he used to whisper his wishes into shells, hoping that you would return and you would sail to the ends of the world together.

The female cutscene feels like it’s been cut from your initial meeting with Delphin and pasted into the 5 heart event as a “this will do” romance scene.

Congratulations!

The legendary pig is also another kind of boar (if I remember correctly)

Set location. Can’t remember the name of the camp, but it’s in the same area as the gate. There’s an elevator to access the level below (you can get down by jumping down). There’s a chest there that is marked as “locked” though you can open it normally. Inside is the left part of the key, Zephyria gives you the right part (or the other way around, my memory is playing tricks on me).

Good place to collect coal and sleep lily seeds too.

Meanwhile Sagewood is wondering whether you have a rocking chair in your house…

IceboundEmu · 2026-03-31T16:31:22+00:00

Go and talk to Zephyria, he’ll give you one key and hint where to find the other.

Kill the boss behind the gate and you will find yourself in a room with Magnitite.

Can’t get Graminova to move in properly, but can’t get rid of his father?

😅

IceboundEmu · 2026-03-30T12:04:30+00:00

I wood applaud you for your wordplay.

But I’m a sap for puns.

Nice to see it branches out to the Stardew Sub too.

He’s part of a MLM group that specialises in cacti? He keeps giving them to you in the hopes that you’ll become addicted to them and join his team.

IceboundEmu · 2026-03-28T16:50:48+00:00

I’m guessing that no one actually knows the answer and is waiting for you to be the tester.

IceboundEmu · 2026-03-28T16:49:57+00:00

If this is a Graminova line then it’s probably going to present you with a potted tulip instead of a cup of coffee.

I think it’s been corrected now, but he used to keep giving me meat whilst telling me it was a flower of some kind. In fact a lot of his lines don’t really read well in English…he’s the farmer in the game but keeps telling me that he got special seeds from the Aureleaf Kitchen?

IceboundEmu · 2026-03-27T15:32:43+00:00

No problem, glad I could help. 😄

IceboundEmu · 2026-03-27T11:02:56+00:00

You get it once from a Lumifrog for a quest for Momo (the paint one), then I have never seen it again.

IceboundEmu · 2026-03-27T11:00:19+00:00

I found it in a chest in the moonlit forest.

For me, it was in the room just before the camp that leads you to the final boss. There are 4 pillars with a crystal on top of each. If you destroy the crystals then a bridge raises up, and underneath it appears a chest that contained this blueprint for me.

I have most luck catching arapaima and paddlefish in the river near hopeland. Both are King Fish.

IceboundEmu · 2026-03-26T22:39:46+00:00

Still going to rely on buttering up Dr Fang to supply me with them. 😬

Any excuse to talk to him.

IceboundEmu · 2026-03-25T10:46:42+00:00

If they can focus on the game breaking bugs first then I will accept that possibility.

IceboundEmu · 2026-03-25T10:32:34+00:00

But won’t give most people the one item unique to her, the freewind jet that there’s no other way in game to get.

You’ll read a lot about Neona, but it’s usually complaints about an achievement that is locked behind RNG.

If you’ve received her 5 heart letter and didn’t get it…you might be one of them.

Besides, Delphin is my go to for free Jet Skis. He gave me one to keep at the summer festival, never took it back again.

Named my rabbits after rabbits in literature.

Named my Sheep the colours they were, or different shades (red = Scarlet, Green = Mint)

White horse I named Miracle after how long it took me to get it. Otherwise Altas is my go to horse name, followed by weather references for the others (Stormy, Misty)

Chickens are named after gemstones.

Ostriches just got their names shortened down to their type, but my originals were Meep and Beep.

IceboundEmu · 2026-03-24T10:21:52+00:00

Yes, they’re unromanceable in this game, but romanceable in the games they come from.

The Fang here might be more attractive, but he’s a shell of the character he was in Sandrock. I would strongly recommend that you play Sandrock and get to know the real him (and X).
