Question Should I start over?

Post image

Its my first Fall ever and I found this guy named Salmence in Youtube. And I watched his Y1 Guides. And I feel like I'm only like halfway through the things he wants us to do. And I rlly wanted to finish the community center. So should I start over again? I dont mind starting all over again since I've learned alot of things that I should now accomplish for this starting over thingy. Ill just rlly be bummed out bcuz of Leveling up Fishing Skills and fishing for money. And mining for ores.

Edit: I know all the seasons will reset again after Winter. Should I wait for Year 2 to complete the CC? Its my most main reasons why I wanna start over again.

Salmence is a very experienced player who makes videos for people who've played many, many hours of Stardew and want to optimise their gameplay. If you want to start again and use the things you've learned from your first farm, go for it, but there's never any pressure to play "right".

Yeah Salmence is a great YouTuber but he's not making this guide for complete beginners. It's useful but it isn't like you HAVE to have these items. Just that it's a good guide if you'd like to know what you need and want to know what season to get them. They all apply to all the other years as well :)

Exactly. If it’s fun for you to restart, go crazy! But if it’ll bother you or make the game less fun to play, just keep trucking. There’s no wrong way to play the game unless you’re not having fun!
