@wallhackio @baronvonjace My biggest gripe with Stardew is how painfully obvious it is that the entire game was written by one white man

@wallhackio @baronvonjace You get the six types of girl he wants to date and like

Six assorted dudes

@coriander @wallhackio I really am illiterate. I didn't know that tho I only have ~20 hours in Stardew

@coriander @wallhackio @baronvonjace band name suggestion: six assorted dudes

@holly @wallhackio @baronvonjace In the grand tradition of indie bands of the 90s and 00s, it's 4 women

@coriander @wallhackio @baronvonjace of course

@coriander @wallhackio @baronvonjace to be fair, i sometimes feel like it was a bit obvious that mistria's target demographic is het women cause like. some of the girls are kinda boring and it feels a bit like secret bachelor had much more effort put into him than secret bachelorette

@coriander @wallhackio @baronvonjace however, there is much more poc rep in mistria. oh, also all the marriage candidates feel like adults, like there are a few that live with relatives but it doesn't feel like they're too young to be getting married

@coriander @wallhackio @baronvonjace vs with stardew some of the marriage candidates' conflicts with their parents make me feel like they're freshly 18 or something

@cam @wallhackio @baronvonjace Yeah a lot of the Stardew marriages but especially the women feel like teenagers

@coriander @cam I mean, I was getting into arguments with my parents when I was taking online classes in community college. So when I see Abigail I see a lot of the version of myself in my 20s in her

@wallhackio @coriander that's true, I was also beefing with my parents in college because I commuted from home to save money

@wallhackio @coriander @cam okay but i would not want to date myself in my 20s either

@wallhackio @baronvonjace Yeah I don't think I can add much more to this conversation other than "there are some frustrations I have with FoM but goodness combat is loads better"

@lapis @wallhackio So it sounds like FoM just has better writing.

@baronvonjace @wallhackio there's more to it than that.

Let me put it this way

if what you like about Stardew Valley is optimization and making money hand over fist, this is NOT for you

@lapis @wallhackio I never got into the farm optimization some people did in SV.
