save the crops with the stars on them for later when you need them for the main story
pumpkins are the cash crop once you get to their season
upgrade your tools whenever possible, but make sure to check the weather first. if it's going to rain the next day then that's the best time to upgrade your hoe or watering can since it takes a whole ingame day to upgrade tools.
sprinklers are immensely useful, outside of the very first one you can make/buy.

start with a small cultivated field

if it has berry in the name dump all your money into seeds to grow it

get a list of all the seasonal bullshit you need for the bundles and start that right away
speedrun the mines by stocking up a shitload of golden chub and dashing to the bottom as fast as possible to unlock all the ores for your tool upgrades
rush sprinklers to free up your days

other once you have all gold tools and a large plot of sprinklers you can begin taking the game at your own pace and focus on whatever you want, like doing more combat, or doing all the villager friendship events

Just play and figure things out on your own.

Play rune Factory instead

Parsnips for first month
MELONS in summer.
Don't get too crazy farming until you unlock cave exploring and shit. Get to know everyone.

Also don't bother with cooking except making some stamina snacks its fucking garbage and not profitable

Leah is awesome, but I'm thinkin of goin after Penny, she's wholesome

make sure you breed maru's fat ass and undo the mistake her parents made

Just play the fucking game.

is there anywhere i can find out their ages? most of them look like little kids, Maru looks like 15 or something

The first big upgrade you want, before any buildings and shit, is the double sized bag. You're going to save a bunch of time with it, and time is money.

Every human character except Jas and Vincent is over 18.

yea but how old?

At least college age. Considering people can drink I'd say between 20-24

install mods

okay yea that makes sense

The amount of pixels in one frame of their sprites divided by 4.

Make sure you pick the fruit bat cave, not the mushroom one
Foraging is OP early game and fishing is a waste of time
Upgrade your backpack ASAP
Don't let Clint jew you into upgrading anything past steel for the first year
Finish the bank ASAP so you can get access to the desert and the high value seeds in the store there
Marry Penny because she is the best girl

Considering you can potentially play the game for several in-game decades and the characters don't age at all, it's better to not give the characters a specific age so that doesn't feel as weird. The games doesn't often mention specific numbers of years passing for the same reason.

I think I asked in like 3 different threads but forgot to check if there were answers every time
is there a mod that lets me fuck the milfs instead

>fruit bats
>incredibly inconsistent drops over consistent mushrooms

Fruit bats are only good for rushing bundles. Better off with the mushroom cave and some year 2-3 fruit trees.

Give me a good modlist for this game.
I've been meaning to play but I can't be sorting through mods for a week...

Looking to make the game more like harvest moon.

Yes, there's at least one mod that let's you marry anyone, including Krobus, the Dwarf, and that wild boar that lives with Penny.

If I don’t marry do I get kicked out of town like in harvest moon?

There’s zero time limit. There used to be at the launch of the game but grandad has chilled the fuck out. So take as long as you want.

Try to earn money during the first 13 days and put that money into Strawberries. during the egg festival on the 13th.

Save about half of the ones you cultivate (the ones with no stars) so that you can use a seed maker on the remainder and have them ready for year 2, they will be a really good profit.

that only happens in like 2 harvest moons

do you guys think G-d will punish furries? Or has He already.

Build a silo first then a coop.
Musroom cave > Bat cave
Save a califlouer with a gold star for the luau on summer
upgrade the watering can first, watch the tv if its going to rain the next day, if it does upgrade it. it takes 3 days

Always watch the queen of sauce. If you miss an episode it takes foreeever for the recipes to cycle back around. Just check the tv every day by habit, never hurts to check weather anyway.

Being a furry is the punishment.

Download any of the portraits mods that caters to you, the original ones are literally the worst versions of themselves.

Emily best girl.

Waifu faggots NEVER add anything to discussion.
Your advice is fucking duh worthy. The op asked because they didnt want to do your advice

Seconding, berries OP every season.

and some animu potrait mod

Attached: explorer_cpVX2NtYGt.png (527x536, 39K)

For the love of God, plant as many trees as possible on parts of your farm that you don't usually use. You need as much wood, oak resin, and coal as possible for preserve jars and kegs. Also, don't bother making the first tier sprinkler. It's absolutely worthless.
>Implying pumpkins are the cash crop when cranberries exist
Either the crop meta has changed since I last played or you're full of shit.

Is there a mod that completely rehauls the village? I legitimately cannot enjoy the characters of stardew valley. I played a lot of the original rune factory and harvest moon as a kid, I loved the characters, I genuinely loved the medieval, fantasy europe setting, the art was gorgeous, the clothes design was beautiful, they were such wonderful games to get into. And yet, stardew valley, I find 80% of the girls gross and shitty characters, the art is disgusting and fat, and it's generally lost its magic, notably by constantly bringing up fucking "corporations are evil" bullshit. Just make a world without big companies. bring me back to fantasy medieval europe. fuck.

is having livestock viable? newfag here

Just for Community Center.

"Go in without prior knowledge" is an answer to OP's question, you shit eating retard. Go drink the chemicals under the sink.

Attached: b41a845e61c339.jpg (600x849, 93K)

You can do it sure. But viable? It’s always going to make far far less than farming even with all the perks going to rancher and such. You want some of each animal, but it won’t be your primary income.

I love this game but is it me or are the portraits kinda ugly

Hmm. Well, some big tips would be to save a little bit of everything. Chests are easy to make, so hoard a couple of everything. You never know when something will be useful.
Checking out a wiki page for the various seasons is handy to find out what crops have the best profit margin
Try to focus on everything. Mining, foraging, farming, fishing, combat, all of it. Fishing in particular is a little tough at first, but gets easier the more you do it.
Upgrading tools takes 2 days, so it's best to upgrade the watering can when there's rain the next day.

I do think that taking your time with the game is important though. You lose nothing by waiting before tackling something, so take your time and have fun

where to get lewd mods?

Giving presents on everyone's birthdays is a big deal. They get 8x the normal effect, so if you give them a present they love you'll get a shitload of friendship points

look up each character's page on the wiki, you can see how the portraits evolved during development and how the vast majority used to be way better than the final ones

>nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/3753
How's this?

If you want friendship fast and have cash to burn, don’t underestimate the power of daily coffee runs. Everyone loves that shit except the little children and monsters.

Why'd you have to remind me about how hard he ruined Maru?

Attached: 1539651356473.gif (256x200, 234K)

They're better now that they fixed the glitches associated with animals and made it so recipes will accept any variant of produce instead of fucking you over for getting large milk/eggs/etc. But from what I remember the only animals worth raising for money is pigs, which are incredibly lucrative with the right perks.

They were nerfed a while ago. Also in the greenhouse hops turned into pale ale is the best investment to my knowledge.

I thought ancient fruit was the best crop to grow in the greenhouse if you use a keg for them.

Ancientfruit wine is no longer big dick in town? Lame. I miss blueberry meta.

No. Just play the game. There are plenty of useful ingame hints. You can't really screw yourself over -- just play it however you want.

enjoy NTR.

Not saving enough money to buy the town and turn it into a mega farm

this

i hate "just play on your own" faggots with a passion

>>the mayor comes personally each day to make sure you won't sell your products yourself
But you can go sell your products yourself in town. You using the box just means you're lazy and letting someone else do it

>the mayor comes personally each day to make sure you won't sell your products yourself
>make you work for free to fix the town hall
>they ask you to put yourself at risk so MAYBE you'll have a diamond in the mine for a girl
The people in town do a bunch of scummy shit, no need to lie/stretch the truth about these three things. You should at least mention how Clint is a stereotypical incel and that Pierre is actually a lying cuck that steals the credit for your crops whenever they turn out well.

Attached: 1554481869617.png (500x377, 192K)

I don't see how. Pale ale is 150g daily(2 days to produce at 300g sale price, hops grow daily so you should have 2x the kegs you have hops plants). Ancient fruit takes 7 days to grow and 7 days to turn into wine, for a sale price of 1650 for 14 days of work per berry, putting it at 117.86g/day. Even before they were nerfed in price they were still a 150g/day profit essentially which is the same as pale ale. I think a mixture of hops+ ancient fruit is probably better than just all of one now that I think about it. Fill up whatever spots hops plants can't be placed(so you can still harvest them all, as you can't move through the hops) with ancient fruit. Been about a year since I played last but haven't seen any new crops to my knowledge better than these two.

m fucking stupid. I don't see the point in-
...Ok I'll try it, why not it couldn't hurt. Also
>Can't marry the new hot rich MILF
Then literally what is the fucking point

Reminder that Pierre was cucked by the wizard and is raising his child

fuck. everyone.

I'm not super anal about it, but I find optimizing the farm production and stuff to be fun. I also don't only grow the "good" crops each season either. But like someone else said, the greenhouse is there to make money year round, so I min/max that eventually.

holy fuck why is the greenhouse so hard to unlock
all i need is animal goods and artisan shit but never have enough money(to buy the buildings or the animals)

i just started year 3 arggg

>he didn't get it by year 1
lmao shitter

Seriously? I just started year 2 and I'm about to fully unlock that bundle. If I get 1-2 more for each of those two bundles I'll be done. Check the travelling merchant, I was able to pick up a few bundle items from her

You will get bored before winter

So does this mod rewrite dialogue to make people refer to them as girls or is it purely a cosmetic change only?

Fuck getting to know everyone and go straight to crazy farming shit

Pierre deserved to be cucked, he ignores his wife and daughter for the store, he beat a random civilian after screaming like a monkey in the town hall.

Attached: 1543232802133.jpg (850x1260, 214K)

cosmetic. but there's a mod that changed the dialogue too.

console versions arent even on 1.3 so prices are different for making money

>he ignores his wife and daughter for the store
I kinda think Pierre is shit too but to be fair that is their livelihood

>we probably won't ever get another Vita update
Feels bad

Maybe during events, normally there is not enough people in that village to kept him away from his wife and daughter.

Who did you marry Yea Forums?

I'm only on year 2, haven't made a choice yet. I'm furthest along with Abigail, I'm seriously considering either her, Leah or Haley

The joja mart guy? Tell me you wouldn't punch a random big business douche that comes into your family store and tells people to come buy his shit. That's a total dick move. I like Abby but she's definitely the edgy girl of the game, she doesn't want to be around her parents(even if she isn't his kid, he's still her dad at this point).

The dev needs to give some better background to their household in general, let alone the entire town. I hope it doesn't turn into a canon cuck story, because I think cuckold story lines are pretty retarded in reasoning most of the time. Rarely do I see writers actually create a complex relationship where they work marriage troubles out in an adult fashion, instead of the "we weren't having sex/quality time so I hopped on this dude's dick in the meantime lol". It's completely idiotic and the dude getting cucked is better off just dumping them. It's also kind of stupid to assume he's the only issue in the relationship, I don't remember her, or any of the women in of the married couples, actually saying anything good about their partners often. They need to put in as much work as they want their husbands to for the relationship to work.

I'm in love with Penny!

This one on the same page for anyone wondering.

install the jas marriage mod

I'm 20 hours in and have no idea what I'm doing but it's fun. I maxed out fishing first, then got to ~ level 90 in the mines, then bought a barn and coop for 4 cows and 4 chickens. Now I've got 4 goats as well, and a few fruit trees. I'm romancing Penny, about 3 more hearts to go. Got the sprinklers. I'm in winter of year one so I guess I'll just focus on upgrading tools and getting further into the mine. Come spring I'll actually focus on crops, I kind of ignored them my first year.
You don't need a plan OP, just enjoy it.

Not by the original author, but I remember finding a up to date version of the mod in the atf forums

kys pedoshit

Still amazes me that the mod is (arguably I guess) the most controversial thing to ever come out of Stardew

Get your animals dude. Stop spending money on other shit first man, 3 years should've been a good amount of time to earn enough money to get your animals and the artisan stuff by then.

Farming gives you purpose and something to be proud of.

damn i play slow. i probably had close to 40 hours before winter of the first year. didnt reach past level 50 in the mines until late 2nd year, same with sprinklers

I mean that seems like a stretch but I'll take it at this point.
I'm just curious. The rest of them follow a theme. Fisherman is a shark, corporate toadie is a toad, dudes who live high up in the mountains are eagles. Just seems a bit of an odd choice to me.

Keep demetrius away from the bridges.

Oh is that what the wizard is? I mean it kind of makes sense - he looks like an eastern dragon and they're all sorts of magic and shit. And I guess it's common furry thing, and it's implied Abigail is the wizard's child. Plus furries have the hots for dragons. I just don't see the "Desert = Moth" connection clearly but maybe I'm just autistic.

is this as good as harvest moon boy v girl?

>Just seems a bit of an odd choice to me.
Desert moths are a thing, actually. Some even look vaguely like her
