My previous review of this game really didn't make it justice.
Yes, I have over 1000 hours on it, yes, I modded the hell out of it. But it still keeps getting me back every time. Why is that?

Because this game has always something fun to do.
Think you 100%d the game? Think again! Update comes out that adds a LOT of things. It's seriously impressive how during an almost decade long period ConcernedApe has done a lot for this game and the people who played it.

The 1.6 update has some of the coolest features I've seen in a while. Outright making a ton of the mods I used completely obsolete (as they are features now present in the game). The art is as beautiful as ever. The music is as great as ever. This game was already pretty damn good during release and it only keeps getting better and better.

The quality of SDV absolutely makes me hopeful for Haunted Chocolatier, since that seems to be the natural evolution for Stardew itself. Something that's rare as I often have no expectations for any games currently on development.
