Is PTSD supposed to stop existing because your buddies got blown up by a dragon instead of a grenade
I think OP is talking about the tonal canyon between Kent and all the wacky shit that goes on. It’s like when you find out the wizard cucked Pierre and is Abigail’s real father. But the you collect the last fish a the Junimos magically fix up another part of the community center.
the junimos are a local legend and no one ever actually sees anything magic other than the player, the wizard- who the townsfolk just see as an eccentric old man- and emily, who no one would believe anyway since she's a loony. it's in contrast to both the church of Yoba, who several people in town pray to and all of them have lives that are varying levels of shit, and the march of tech/industry with jojamart and the player's inevitable automation of their own farm
or maybe concernedape just thought 'dudes with guns fighting weird magic stuff in a far-off land' is cool and was having a laugh
I meant the sense of what happens in the game, it’s like if you go to the doctor and hear a lady sobbing in the next room because she was diagnosed with terminal breast cancer. And then when you leave you see the seven dwarves whistling high ho.
I get what you're saying but ironically that might be not the best choice of example.
I never said who the woman with cancer was.
>and no one ever actually sees anything magic other than [...]
There's also the golem event with Abigail but apparently nobody gives a shit about monsters even though there was nobody but ol' Marlon to keep things and fuck me I'm really thinking about this more than Ape ever did.
Maybe they just consider the monsters like dangerous animals or something. Like their version of Pokemon logic. We tell our kids to not go into the woods because they'll get eaten by coyotes, they tell theirs not to play in the caves because they'll get swarmed by Giga Iridigger Forma de Indigo bats.
>. But the you collect the last fish a the Junimos magically fix up another part of the community center.
Am I the only one who's never bothered to do the community center? The game's so much more fun when you side with the corporation unironically
Community Center is only fun for the first two playthroughs or so, then you realize how much of a waste of time all the little hoops it makes you jump through are.
Pierre is Abigail's father as it's canonically mentioned she dyed her hair . Caroline is the Wizard's daughter.
*used to dye her hair, and she herself says she can't remember the last time she actually dyed it and it just stays purple now. Like the Wizard's.
>Caroline is the Wizard's daughter.
you're a fuckin' moron
No, Emily is the wizard's daughter. Think about it.
>blue hair
>literally magical
>looks nothing like her sister
>parents nowhere to be seen
Yep, Emily is actually into the magical shit unlike Abigail. Abigail wants to fight with a sword, similar to Pierre who was a boxer.
>you're a fuckin' moron
Nah he's kinda right. Some of the dialogue does hint at the wizard possibly being pretty old, old enough to be Caroline's dad. His daughter could also be Emily. Even Jas, if we're going by hair colour, and those two are MUCH more likely because Abigail was literally born with the same hair colour as Pierre. Meanwhile as far as we know, Jas and Emily always had that unnatural hair colour.
who gives a shit? its a ripoff of harvest moon and rune factory that tries to insert stupid western shit into the game. morons growing beans so the 7/11 goes out of business fuck this game.
You will never be Japanese
? and you'll still have shit taste? im glad im not japanese.
Jas!
>second post
It ain't over until the fat janny sings.
Kent is one of the best characters along with Gus, tbh.
>two characters you hardly ever interact with or know exist in stardew
>the best
Sounds about right
M. Rasmodius does magic, but he's more of just a weird old guy than a wizard as such. Even the strongest magic we see is extremely mundane stuff like "make your ex forget about you"
The dwarves are rare as anything and nobody knows their language.
I don't see how any of this affects the war. The magic is more of a whimsical nostalgic vibe kinda thing. That's why stardew is so great, the whole thing has an almost timeless 1980s Spielberg vibe even though it's nothing to do with that. It just gives me the same feeling you know?
The real answer is that magic only exists in the setting when it's a required game mechanic that has no better explanation. Anyway, haunted chocolatier when?
Dangerously cute.
Almost missed this, it's perfect. I foresee this being used a lot against certain posts.
why she so smug? rape correction needed >:(
Jas is exclusively for consensual babymaking in the missionary position with the lights off.
As Yoba intended.
Forget correction, coloring needed 🙁
The drawfriend went mia
I fucked his wife
I always wanted there to be a sequel to Stardew Valley staring Kent during his time in the war. You know, getting captured, breaking out of the POW camp, committing war crimes, all the typical stuff. I also want a mod where Jodi gets a visit from the Army saying Kent's KIA so you can have an affair (and knock her up). Then it turns out he's just a POW and Jodi has to explain it to him when he gets back.
So how would the mod end? Does he murder suicide (You), Jodi, and then himself?
I mean, he already sends you bombs in the mail, so why not?
Actually though, I don't think Kent would have a leg to stand on, it's a no-fault affair, the Army told Jodi her husband is dead, not her fault right? Maybe he goes postal on the Army instead?
>Actually though, I don't think Kent would have a leg to stand on
He's got PTSD, not an amputation.
Greetings anons, Clint here. Just a reminder to upgrade your tools and stay away from my perfect girlfriend Emily! She's my lover and my better half and I don't like you snooping around her! If you don't, I'm taking a page out of Kent's playbook and sending you a bomb in the mail!
You would ya incel
>be inexperienced farmer with no luck with the ladies.
>meet Emily after moving in
>turns out she has a fetish for taking virginities, has slept with basically everyone in town.
>have sex for the first time
>Clint finds out about it
>he's all sullen as he cracks your geodes
>Emily later tells you that she threw herself at him a dozen times, even directly saying "let's fuck"
>Clint still screwed it up.
>thank Emily for the help and then marry her sister.
Someone make the mod.
I have an odd infatuation with Stardew's setting because of that. Weirdly original background noise.
Same here, but I wish Ape's autism with having players fill in the blanks coupled with his overall laziness when it comes to writing didn't fuck us lorefags over. There's so much shit I want to know more about and not even mods (aka glorified fanfiction) will cover most of it.
>coupled with his overall laziness when it comes to writing
please understand, he's already dealing with his laser-focus autism having to make his own engine and all the art and music and also dealing with a bad publisher deal and hiring people to help with networking and rewriting most of the game to be easier to mod and
Don't think about it too much, OP. SV's world isn't that well thought-out
I always thought the war explains a lot about the setting. You make so much money because of food costs and you get a break on taxes because it's for the war effort. The war has cut off some modern technology so you get things like the internet and flatscreen tvs but no cell phones and Haley's running around with a Polaroid camera of all things.
Hailey is into photography, so her cameras could always be just an artistic choice of her tho
I want to take his wife so badly and that one mod has shit writting.
>wanting to cuck the only married man in town who actually deserves his wife
There's a special place in hell for people like you
What about George and Evelyn?
Ew gross, why would you even bring them into this?
You said Kent was the only person who deserved his wife, there nothing sexual to it.
She deserves better, ME
Sorry bro, best you can do is Pam.
I keep getting filtered by skull cavern
Can't wait for choco factory game to be released and finally black hole this game's entire cast.
I am not too optimistic about that game. CA essentially used Harvest Moon formula and perfected some of its flaws (while only making worse others such as the social aspects). There's nothing for him to build CF off.
He's gunning for recettear this time around. There's not much in the shopkeeper genre that could compare to a new game like stardew.
>and finally black hole this game's entire cast
Not going to happen. HC isn't going to replace SDV.
In a game with magic why is there a need for conventional war?
Because war never changes
I mean magic seems to be pretty rare even in Pelican Town
To acquire resources that are used when casting spells or to make enchanted items and rituals, to expand your rule over more people and to get rid of other powerful mages.
Machine guns and fighter planes>spells and baubles. And what magic there is in Stardew Valley seems fairly useless for combat.
>Setting has both magic and modern tech
>Keeps them separated
Cowards, give me a fucking Magic Machine gun or a dragonskull rocket launcher that shoots fireballs, you all do the lamest shit with this kind of setting.
Who said it wasn't a war against the gnomes or some shit?
The magical creatures and wizards are mostly hidden away. Simes/other creatures are treated like feral animals meant to be killed,
Wish you could customize spouse rooms.
>tfw no Marnie wife
Why is Lewis afraid to be in a public relationship with her? Is it his position? Their age? Or is he embarrassed of her?
Because he's also in a relationship with Robin.

Alex my beloved
Guys always make the best girls when genderswapped.
I'll marry Haley.
What the r63'd bachelors really need are e-boi versions.
No. not at all.
Couldn't agree more. Would love to see an ojou-sama Ellie.
I'd rather more new characters. I wish there was an SVE expansion, but good.

>would somehow magically create less emotional scars and trauma
>Magic doing the unthinkable and making people happy?

Retard
How come the people in this tiny country village don't look like people who would live in a tiny country village.
Because a lot of them are in fact city slickers who moved to Stardew.
Kent was a garbage man who lived in the city with his family, Haley and her family are from the city, Elliot also recently moved to Stardew.
