  For context. Eric was on Tiger Belly and offhandedly mentioned he COULD make a Stardew Valley 2, not that he ever will.

  SDV2? Eat my purple polka dotted shorts.

  I literally just bought the game so he better fucking not.

  How about he add multiplayer to mobile already so I can play with my family without having to break out the laptops or steam links.

  Man I should’ve read through the comments before I made a reply comment to another person, I could’ve added a source for every one of my “games will complain about X if a sequel is released” just from the comments here.

  I recently recommended the game to my wife and since then she tells me every day what her progress is and what she hates about the game and how tedious it is and how bad and inconsistent the controls are. And then she’s off to play more.

    The slow movement is what kept me from playing it forever. I know there’s mods that improve it, but I wish the base speed would be higher.

    Back at 1.0 launch it also had a bug where walking diagonally was even slower, so that may have affected my judgment as well - it was fixed after a week or so.

      There are plenty of both prrmanent and temporary speed increases, with the permanent ones you are almost as fast as the horse. And with temporary ones you can be faster than it. No need for mods, just base game.

      In case you’re not aware, there are ways to increase your speed within the game which feel like earned progress.

    The controls really are awful, not sure how console folks can enjoy the game

      I originally played it on my desktop and now on my Steam Deck. The controls for controllers aren’t bad

      Having originally cut my teeth on Harvest Moons on SNES, N64, PS, PS2, and DS, I found the controls for Stardew Valley mind-blowingly good.

      having played maybe 500 hours with controller only, maybe I don’t know what I’m missing, but the controls don’t seem that bad. Only thing which comes to mind as terrible is the slingshot, i never even try to use that.

  Please no. SDV is amazing and the updates have been wonderful but I’d much rather he would move on and continue working on original projects like his Haunted Chocolatier.

• Yermaw@lemm.ee ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  That sounds to me like “ain’t gonna happen mate but I don’t want to upset you”.

  Which I’m kinda happy about. All the updates to stardew have been free and I want more. More. MORE.

    I think it might happen in 10, 15, 20 years… but not any sooner than that.

• MoonlightFox@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  I totally get why he prefers to just update SDV.

  He is already rich from the original game. He loves expanding on it. People love him for the additional content.

  So there is not a huge incentive for him to not just do exactly what he likes and expand SDV indefinitely 😄

  • Donjuanme@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    Rebuilding from code up instead of continuously adding to an overburdened foundation, I don’t know why he’d want to start fresh at all. And he can’t just rebuild and re release because the "mod scene"would pitch a fit

  No one in the comments read even just the post body, mush less the article…

  • Empricorn@feddit.nl ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    I came here from Reddit where we argued about headlines… What’s an “article”?

• Fermion@feddit.nl ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  He hasn’t had a great streak in completing progress in haunted chocolatier because he keeps getting pulled back into stardew valley ports and making new content for stardew valley. If he and his collaborators soon have to support both stardew valley and haunted chocolatier across multiple platforms, I don’t expect development on a new stardew valley game to progress quickly at all. I would expect half life 3 like timelines.

  I think we’d all enjoy a fresh take on SDV. There’s probably a ton he’d like to change, but can’t without having to rework the whole thing.

  He did a fantastic job making the game what it is by adding slowly to the game, but it’s certainly pretty disjointed and limited in a lot of ways.

    “gamers” would have a cow if there was ever a sequel seriously discussed. He already charged them once, how dare he charge them again.

    I suspect 10-20% of the community would take that stance, even if it’s only a few%, it would absolutely be magnified by the echo chamber and there will be talk or how concerned ape left stardew valley “incomplete” and it’s "abandon-ware"and all future products should be pirated.

      You’re so far off base it’s hilarious. A Stardew Valley 2 would be hype as hell.

      ConcernedApe isn’t EA. People love him and are happy to give him their money. I know many people that have Stardew on multiple platforms

      Not sure where you’re coming from. Stardew Valley was completed years ago and the guy has actually kept releasing free content updates nobody even asked for. People are actually getting annoyed at him for continuing to update it since he’s supposed to be working on his next game.

  I don’t think this guy sleeps, but I am ready to give them more money.

  Stardew Valley is hands down the best farming sim.
