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.
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.
Plus the updates keep breaking mods. Part of why I'm holding off on another playthrough is that I'm worried he's going to add one more update as soon as I finish a modlist and boot up
You could also just... not update.
I think you’re pretty safe. 1.6 just came out like a year ago. I think you will be good for a few years.
There were smaller updates after 1.6 for months, all the way into December
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
That's me. PS4, Switch, PC and on phone.
You're so far off base it's hilarious. A Stardew Valley 2 would be hype as hell.
Tell that to
