MS Plays: Stardew Valley (Game over)

[Farren]

Let's explore the road west from the bus stop.

This I will process later today.

[Farren]

West of the Bus Stop

On the way to the road, there's a

Dandelion x1

that's easy to grab.

The road here isn't very safe for walking - or at least, it wouldn't be if there were any operational vehicles on the road.
Fences line the road; a few

bushes

are accessible here, but that's about it. The road continues on the west, entering a tunnel.

The tunnel itself is blocked off; no traffic can pass through. There are a couple of lights, but they don't cover all of it.

The only point of interest you see in the tunnel is a

battery-powered lock box

. Without a

battery

, it's impossible to open.

[Charles510]

I suggest we open all three geodes.

btw at the end of the day, can you upload a picture of what the farm looks like?

btw at the end of the day, can you upload a picture of what the farm looks like?

Taking a picture of the entire farmstead could be tricky, but I can certainly take screenshots. I'm saving videos, so if anyone wants to see a screenshot of anything in particular, let me know! Or if there's interest, I can look into uploading the videos. (No voice, just the game.)

Here's a screenshot of the crop area / farmhouse right after planting the mixed seeds.

[Charles510]

We have lots of room, should we buy some seeds and plant more crops?

Let’s visit the general store and check the quest board.

Also we should sell stuff.

[Farren]

Quest board is one of those things I'll do an immediate update on, as depending on what it is it could affect people's plans.

New Quest: Help Wanted

Pam would like to hire someone to fetch

Earth Crystal

. You will be paid for your time.
- 150G on delivery.
- Pam will be thankful.
- Progress: 0/1 Earth Crystals delivered to Pam.
- Expires at the end of Spring 5.

Will set the deadline this time for 48 hours from now - while we'll have to break the 3/4 pattern eventually to get through the season on time, we've still got plenty of wiggle room, and it sounds like there's still some planning to do.

[Charles510]

Thanks for the screenshot, I would be interested to see the video too.


Any objections to spending some money buying some seeds? I’m thinking of buying some potato seeds.

[Farren]

Spoiler: Video - Spring 1 (16:57)

No promises about quality or anything like that. I'll work on uploading the others later (Tuesday, maybe?), and toss them somewhere in the opening posts once they're caught up.

[Charles510]

Thanks for the video! I really appreciate it .

I've never played this before.

please look at the calendar again to see who we recognize now.

Let's buy 5 potato seeds and take them back and plant them and water everything.

spend some energy fishing too.

[Charles510]

Do we have the Horseradish, Daffodil, Leek, and Dandelion to craft wild seeds?

[Farren]

Do we have the Horseradish, Daffodil, Leek, and Dandelion to craft wild seeds?

We do. 6 Daffodils, 2 Dandelions (1 silver quality, 1 normal), 1 Leek, 3 Horseradish. So we could craft one bundle of 10 Wild Seeds (Sp).

[Charles510]

Yes please craft those and plant and water them.

[Farren]
