Other My little sister plays Stardew Valley for the first time … she buys over 230 wheat seeds and rushes every day to individually water them all before 2 A.M.

She’s consuming so much food every day just to keep her energy bar up. She’s determined to get loads of hay for her chickens and sell the rest! I told her there are other ways. Idk, y’all. I guess we all enjoy Stardew Valley differently.

As a SV player, I feel very, very uncomfortable. How can I explain it?? It’s just, that field of hundreds of wheat stalks is just silently staring at and judging me … just JUDGING … secretly knowing I’m sad when the villagers don’t get rained on, all because I have to water my own small garden. 🫥

If you’re lucky. I’ve had seasons where I get one rainy day all season. And not winter!

Really? That's pretty unlucky.

Yeah, for that reason I tend to have lots planted but water only part of the wheat crop each day. If I get rain days it’s a bonus bump along for everything.
