Would be cool if they added some more buildings and rooms and furniture and tech as well.

I think the game would be very cool with electricity, like off grid solar, maybe coal generators if you have a water supply and batteries to buffer the energy, and pumps and water tanks. Maybe automated fertilizer systems. It might also be cool to hire labor to work on the farm and try to turn it into a bit of a business sim.

Didn't this game's creator say that a given update was the last content update quite a few times already?

[–] Kayday@lemmy.world 118 points 5 days ago (2 children)

Same as the Terraria devs, yeah.
Glad he's found a passion project that makes him happy!

[–] Railcar8095@lemmy.world 49 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Terraria is going to keep adding versions until they jump to 2.0

To be honest, compared to 1.0, is almost a different game

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 16 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Not looking for a full changelog or anything but what would you say have been some of the most significant changes over the years?

[–] Railcar8095@lemmy.world 29 points 4 days ago (6 children)

I mean, the original release had Skeletron as the final boss, which is not even the last one before hardmode now.

So 7 or 8 bosses, wings, "classes" (specialized equipment) including summoner with wasn't a thing at all, new weapon types like yoyos, expert mode, several biomes, many events and mini games, town building, NPCs, modding support...

[–] kuberoot@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 3 days ago

modding support

As far as I know, terraria only supports resource packs, changing textures, sounds, text, that kinda stuff, right? tModLoader is a community project made by fans, and the game devs' contributions to that are in the domain of being receptive, supporting it being on steam, and potentially answering questions or making small changes to facilitate mods.

But on the topic of changes, can't forget how they added new content and put it behind a new difficulty, and then ended up doing that again. And then they added a special seed that has new content that bumps up the difficulty another level.

I think he has also said that there are other people working on the game now and he is mostly focusing on his new game iirc. So it sounds like he has just passed the torch and we're gonna get more Stardew content forever lol

[–] dxc@sh.itjust.works 24 points 4 days ago

I just read the announcement. He's working solo on Haunted Chocolatier and says this about Stardew

with 1.7 I have been trying to take more of a “creative director” role in the team, so that (at least for now) I can focus the vast majority of my attention on Haunted Chocolatier.

and also

in order for me to maintain a full connection to the game, I need my hand to touch every piece of new content. And there are some aspects of content development which I insist on doing myself, like the music.

[–] TheRealKuni@piefed.social 24 points 4 days ago

That was the last update where he was doing all the work, I think. Heavy lifting on newer updates is done by his employees now. His primary focus is Haunted Chocolatier, though he does approve everything that goes into Stardew Valley.

For fuck's sake CA, please let me give you my money

[–] bonenode@piefed.social 29 points 4 days ago (4 children)

You can always buy another copy from a different shop.

[–] starman2112@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 days ago

I'm out of shops at this point

[–] Axolotl_cpp@feddit.it 10 points 4 days ago

Or make 2 accounts

[–] tulwinn@startrek.website 3 points 4 days ago

And buy the soundtrack!

Can’t you buy another copy as a gift on some stores (thinking steam here)?

I have two steam copies and a Playstation copy. I have given a lot already

[–] DoucheBagMcSwag@lemmy.dbzer0.com 52 points 4 days ago (2 children)

FFS just make The haunted chocolatier a paid DLC for Stardew at this point

[–] TubularTittyFrog@lemmy.world 11 points 4 days ago (1 children)

it's not going to be nearly as good or as popular... so it's kind of a lost cause compared to the way bigger impact these DLC updates have

Someone just needs to clone him so he can actually finish the new game.

[–] starman2112@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 days ago

We would get new updates for Stardew twice as fast then lol

[–] Sunsofold@lemmings.world 35 points 4 days ago

He's still going. This is the kind of person we need in every field.

[–] starman2112@sh.itjust.works 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

All I wish for is Clint to get an online girlfriend, my wife to be able to hang out with her friends again, and the cute Joja cashier to move into town

[–] Tikiporch@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

An overall Joja redemption arc.

[–] saltnotsugar@lemmy.world 48 points 5 days ago (1 children)

CA is such a great developer and I have no idea what I did to deserve him.

[–] Isolde@lemmy.world 39 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Now, now.

He belongs to us all.

[–] HotsauceHurricane@lemmy.world 14 points 4 days ago

The game that keeps on giving.

[–] CoffeeTails@lemmy.world 18 points 5 days ago (2 children)

ooooh, that's exiting! Maybe I should give it a go again. It's been ages since I played last time

Before or after chocolate game?

[–] ComfortableRaspberry@feddit.org 51 points 5 days ago (3 children)

I feel like Haunted Chocolatier will become our version of Half Life 3
