Let everyone know below a game (6+ months old), that you have played recently, are currently playing or intend to play soon. If it’s currently on sale, a link to the sale & price would be great.
A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it’s price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don’t meet the system requirements, or just haven’t had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Stardew valley is passing my expectations tenfold. I thought it was just a farming simulator with terraria combat but nooo. I find myself genuinely wanting to make meaningful relationships with the townsfolk and not wanting to “min max best strat” like I normally do with videogames
After I was done with the game (hundreds of hours with my gf in coop), I was convinced the town‘s just a big mental asylum lol, highly recommend
You might like Dinkum or Sun Haven as well.
I love Stardew Valley but I do tend to struggle with this. Frequently, I find myself slipping into checklist mode (“gotta give a quartz to this person, run over to Clint to get cracking, get back in time to get the iron out”).
It is super satisfying to design a cool farm, though!
I had this too. I decided that I’ll get the max rating from Grampa and the everything will calm down, but after reaching that point in game I was sort of burnt out and stopped playing.
Also I never could get into the island part of the game. I felt like I abandoned what I worked for all that time!
I was surprised how much time I put into it. It is a nice and relaxing way to unwind after a day of work. I like the fact you can play a t in short bursts too if needed.
I’m emulating it on yuzu on the deck, it started as a trial see how the emulator ran and it just sucked me in 😆
Buy it on steam!
I imagine it might be better on battery life if it’s natively being ran too haha
SDV is great. A lot of people complain that it does make them go crazy over minmaxing and time optimization, but I never had that experience personally.
I know you should and any game like that usually has 1 optimized route but it’s fun just letting go and enjoying the ride.
