I literally never even played it but what a cool project that guy has. (after reading article)

word #2: supercalifragilisticexpialadocious

I thought this right before I tried to play the really old pokemons again. And very quickly went back to new pokemons.

Nice answers everyone but this one is THE CORRECTEST ANSWER and what I'm about to play :)

because i live in a swamp and the usbs all fill with mud

Love GoG. 100%

wow i wish I was exploited as a child when making fun things in games too! i remember making maps in wc3 in elementary school and not getting any money at all for all those hours making fun things.

thank you. good advice

like a boss

Yes and no. I love growing plants irl, especially perennials, and have my own style which requires minimal constant maintenance. But in Programming, if someone has to do something manually repeatedly, it basically means they are too inept to code a function to do it for them. Essentially, in coding, one's aversion to manual repeated tasks determines how powerful one ultimately becomes. A good coder makes it so one line is equivalent to a noob typing 100. So, while I do not agree with you about looking down on 'farming' as in agriculture and raising plants... Yes there is an aspect of the ideal coding mentality that is directly opposite 'repeated manual actions'.

Thank you I just looked up all those and none call to me. i wanted to like stardew because of the 'cool solo dev'. Anyway, time to think of exactly what I want after this experience and let it shape my own project.

oh ya lol haha

interesting the people that think farming has to be boring (You)

I liked the first few posts and am thankful for them and found them informative. was about to keep playing. Then the people believing farming has to be boring and tedious and repetitive and timeconsuming and that i am at fault for thinking anything else came online and make me toootally never play again and uninstall it, lol.

"Also, it’s a farming game. Did you not expect to farm?"

Correct. I had no expectations at all. I literally saw news repeatedly about "concerned ape" for months with trillions of comments of people loving stardew. I then read an article and viewed him as a solo dev who would be a good romodel on my personal journey. I then got the game to try it with no idea how it was structured. Were I to make a farming game I enjoy, all the repetitive minor stuff would be automated, as inspired by rimworld, and because it isn't, the sheer time lost is too much a barrier for me. By the way you say the last sentence, you are apparently a hostile person? So you believe there is no possibility of a farming game with the little tedious things taken care of? I can easily envision one.
