We’ve got two big sales going on, and I’m currently deciding what I would like to pick up. I’m planning to get Expeditions: Rome since it’s 60% off, and I’m trying to decide if I want to finally get Terra Invicta.
What patient games are the people here planning to pick up? Maybe I’ll find a few that I “need” to try!
Just got Stardew Valley. I’m a little reluctant to start it though- it seems like one of those games I could sink hundreds of hours into and I have a huge backlog. But I’m excited to try it.
I play it with my spouse. Really helps with the long distance times.
I originally played the iOS version.
I then bought it again on Steam and have 200 hours logged, which is probably only going to grow. All of these hours happened during the adult phase of my life in which I usually have to be mildly peer-pressured into gaming instead of actually taking the initiative to do something I like (though I am trying to fix that). However, I do think that the way it breaks the game up, into days, gives a nice stopping point.
If only I could stop thinking “one more day, I still need to turn in that quest/plant that new crop in the exact place I want it/get that one last fish I need for the community center before I forget”.
My partner and I both have hundreds of hours in it, so that could be possible! Try not to have super high expectations for it before you start though, I wouldn’t want you to miss out on a fun game because fans hyped it beyond what it is.
That being said, both of us are pretty big fans of the game. We drove quite a distance to go to one of the Stardew Valley concerts, and it was really great. I’m not someone that likes crowds, but all the fans there were very friendly and it made for a great time.
I don’t play Stardew Valley that often or that much, but what I do play is delightful. It’s a pretty versatile game.
