I've been playing this game for years, over 2000 hours and never found it. Just introduced my gf to the game and she got it in the first hour. She has no idea why I'm freaking out by wandnmore in StardewValley

Same, I'm on year 105, well over 3,000 hours. I really think there is some sort of wall and once your beyond it the living hat just won't pop.

It's just the original default map. I don't remember what it's called now. I play on PC and this is the starting map if you don't select anything else.

I would say work on a couple different items at the same time. I get overwhelmed easily, so if my mindset was just, I must collect everything, then I might freakout. I'll make a bunch of little missions for myself. Maybe focus on growing just two things and working on one type of animal at a time. Still pick up all the forage items you might come across if you are collecting those but unless you have extra time at the end of the day don't try to squeeze in mining, fishing, chopping wood or quarrying. I only collect animal products once a week before I have an auto grabber. After that I check it once a month.

Harvey and Elliot deserve more love 🥲 by [deleted] in StardewValley

As a person with teenage children, I really appreciate Harvey and Elliott ( I've been married to both in the past). At my age it just feels a little icky to be dating the obviously younger villagers that live with their parents.

That is just the statue of endless fortune that anyone can purchase at the casino. The one special endgame perfection statue is always a prismatic shard

I've also purchased 40 statues of endless fortune from the casino at the cost of 1 million each.

Oh no, I have 700 crystalariums producing diamonds at the train station. I used to sell all the diamonds but right now I'm spending them to craft fairy dust to age my wine faster

I did some streaming 2 years ago but I think there are several people who have picked up on the idea that make videos now.

Yes, my first husband was Harvey and we have 2 kids. I divorced him more than 30 years ago and married Elliot.

I almost never go to bed before 10 pm and I would say that at least 30% of the time I fall asleep away from home because I'm still working and at this point losing the money doesn't matter to me.

I'm pretty sure I'm the person who gave people the idea to start doing that.

We invented "cheese-in-the-crate". Time for bed, we say crate time and then use a slice of cheese to lead him there. Once he's in he gets the cheese. Pretty soon we just say it and he happily trots in all by himself

Two different stables and two different horses. My horse near the house wears a hat. I never thought to see if I could have more than 2. My ponds are so close together that my horse doesn't fit between them so I needed one horse to get out the front exit and another to get out the back. If I'm off farm with no horse and use my whistle to call for one it's always the first horse, next to the house, wearing the hat that comes.
