Most of the new stuff is for end game. You shouldn't need to start a new game unless you want to play on the new map.
Yup! SMAPI (the mod platform) supports Windows, Mac and Linux 100%. My partner and I are on Mac and Linux respectively and have no issues playing with mods
When you say 3 rd play through, I thought this game was never one to be beaten?Ok I just finished reading the full update notes.
HOLY SHIT
Stardew has to be one of the best games ever made.
There is so much new and changed here that it will feel like a new game for the THIRD time!
I did notice a possible mega nerf: Trees can no longer be planted on surfaces they can't grow on .
Or something similar. Uhhhh does this mean no more planting 15 or whatever fruit trees on the tile in the greenhouse? If so...I get it lol but wow that's a nerf!!
Im about to start a new play through. One thing I wish was added is bigger farm maps - that's one thing from Stardew Valley Expanded that I will miss a lot. The default farms are a bit claustrophobic after playing the SVE forest farm lol.
Anyways, if I could nominate Stardew as GOTY for 2020 due to this massive update - I would!! <3
Not the person you quoted, but I've started a new farm in Stardew at least once a year since it came out. I don't know why, but I enjoy starting over every now and then.When you say 3 rd play through, I thought this game was never one to be beaten?
I find the early to mid game the most fun part of Stardew, so I re-start every so often.When you say 3 rd play through, I thought this game was never one to be beaten?
The console updates are being worked on, but we don't have an ETA.
alright, thanks.The console updates are being worked on, but we don't have an ETA.
awesome. is the new grandpa's map the best to play atm?Not the person you quoted, but I've started a new farm in Stardew at least once a year since it came out. I don't know why, but I enjoy starting over every now and then.
I think if you're just starting out, the newest map is hard to work with in terms of making money and completing the community center. I really enjoy the new map, but it's a lot harder to work with since you can't use sprinklers on most of it. I always like either the default map or the four corners map. I'm having fun with my beach map playthrough, but it doesn't quite fit with how I play the game usually.

All good for me on PS5. I've been playing since before the patch too.Whelp, time to redownload Stardew Valley. Assuming this runs on PS5 fine?
Perfect thanks!All good for me on PS5. I've been playing since before the patch too.
Should be pretty easy to buy through a US account if you feel comfortable doing that.Still can't buy this game on the PS Store in Europe unfortunately, it got taken down and has been down for months.
Wow it has, that's kinda crazy as not heared a peep. You tried Amazon? I remember seeing it being on PS4 on there (on the UK store anyway).Still can't buy this game on the PS Store in Europe unfortunately, it got taken down and has been down for months.
Oh shit it's out! Maybe hades will have to be rested for a whileJust downloading on Switch.
Not played in a couple years but feeling the itch lately. Stardew worked for me in a way that the latest Animal Crossing didn't, anybody else find that?

Loaded up my old save on my Switch. I'm already on year 3 Spring but what's are some efficient ways of making money?
Honestly the SV content updates absolutely put Animal Crossing to shameAnimal Crossing never quite scratched that HM/SV itch for me. NH was the first I put a solid amount of hours to (60h), but when you're done with the new buildings, the game kind of feels pointless. SV has so much content i never managed to do everything and keep going back to it, and it even gets bulky updates like this that add so much.
I love this game.
During the first year potatoes and blueberries will make you rich (and exhausted every night). After that the goal is more to find a routine that doesn't bored you and gives you some time to improve your stats and discover everything the game has to offer, because anything produced regularly will give you money, but requirements and maintenance aren't equal. The best IMO is to have a main source of income that doesn't require much investment and time - doesn't matter if it's not the maximum you could earn - and do a bit of everything.Loaded up my old save on my Switch.

You share the same Farm Land, but pretty much everything else can be done individually if you want. Money can be pooled or split (assuming it's the same as online) so you can be neighbor farms if you prefer it over co-oping. All skills are character based so you have to get them up yourselves and can specialize in 1 while you partner does another or just do everything together. Community Goals and events are shared though. It's a fantastic game and I loved the little of co-op I've done, it's basically the same content as single player.never played this but my partner is a big fan and we have it on switch..
can anyone pitch me on the split screen play? would we both be working on the same farm at the same time? like "you go harvest the sweet potatoes while i go fishing!" ? is it fun in co-op?

Buy pigs and make truffle oil, build kegs and make pale ale out of hops. Ancient fruit in the greenhouse too if you have access to it.
My partner and I picked up our old map that we hadn't played in a year, Spring Y3, and we have been just diving in like everything is brand new. It's just the best game -- it's one of only a handful of games she enjoys and really the only one we play together, and the game itself just gets better and better every year.
The mod scene is great too. I have not touched any new content style mods, but there are some great mods that smooth out quality of life issues and seemlessly fit into the game. SVE and the like will be there waiting for me once I've had my fill of base game content, which is awesome.
Wife and I tried it out last night and really dug it.. she was a little down that we couldn't sign her in to her account for split screen, had to create a new character but it's all good.Split screen co-op you say? I guess the SO and I have found our next drug. :D
If you've completed the community center you can get right to the new end game content (you'll get a letter in the mail in a couple days). If you are starting fresh, completing the community center takes 1 to 2 in game years depending on how well you plan.As someone who hasn't played in a REALLY long time, how hard was it to jump back in to the end game?
