You can also file for divorce

Stardew Valleyis worming its way back into my life. News of abeta updateput the farmer-life sim back on my radar last week, and in the days since, I realized that its soundtrack is accessible through Spotify. I’ve been chilling out to those songs, particularly tracks like “Winter (Nocturne of Ice),” ever since. Now that the update is ready for a final release today, it’s time to return to my mess of a farm.

We already covered what all version 1.1 entails, but I’ve included the developer’s notes again for a quick glance and a trailer with which to hinge these words on. I doubt I’ll start a fresh farm until the co-op update rolls out, so the extra layout types won’t be of much use yet, and I also don’t tend to prioritize the relationship side ofStardew Valley. I’m still not even married! No divorce for me.

That said, it sounds like I’ve got a wizard to chat up and bank-busting buildings to lay down.

Note:The new balancing changes correct the values of a few outlier crops that were far more valuable than all others by a huge margin. I don’t wantStardew Valleyto make players feel “forced” into one particular way of making money. I think it’s a lot more fun to feel like there are many different options for success. However, I do understand that growing blueberries and making ancient fruit wine is part of theStardewculture at this point, so I’ve made sure that they are still very lucrative options. But these changes should help players feel like they have a few more options.
