If you think it's bad now, you oughta read the Stardew chapter in Blood, Sweat, and Pixels.

    It's more like he's making a wonderful gourmet meal for himself, then he looks down to see the dog, and then decides to share.

    It's the same thing with No Man's Sky. Code improvements from Light No Fire get passed on to the NMS team.

    I only just started actually playing Stardew Valley seriously after owning it since it first was available on Steam the other day. The wait for Haunted Chocolatier will be easy. 😎

    DAE think this game is vastly overrated? It’s not bad by any means, but in my experience it doesn’t really do anything exceptionally well compared to the competition.

    I played stardew after fully getting addicted to harvest moon like a decade before it.

    I was happy but also kind of annoyed, because this is basically just harvest moon. Like its so much "harvest moon but also on xbox" that they surely must be getting sued for plagiarism or something.

    Going back to harvest moon after stardew is a challenge to say the least. Nearly every aspect has been improved upon.

    It has many things harvest moon doesnt have. Combat, and more exploration. It has more building and upgrades. More furniture to buy. It is in a similar vein but stardew is basically what harvest moon should have been.

    something i feel doesn't get enough credit is that the backstory is precisely what it needs to be, you inherited a farm from gramps and you want to take it over. Makes perfect sense and whatever the player then does can fit into it.

    I love stardew so I disagree with you, but I know the game is not for everyone and definitely know people that would agree with you so I feel the downvoting is a bit unfair for you.

    But also SV rocks and you should give it another chance.

    I wouldn't say it's overrated because I don't really see people saying it's the best game of all time or anything like that. But it enjoys a good amount of popularity from a very large number of people because it's fun, rewarding, replayable, and fairly easy.

    It wasn't the best, but it did a lot of thing right. It also released in a period where the direct competitor basically run the genre to the ground and drag it for kilometres, the timing is just right that people remember they actually like cozy farming sim like Harvest Moon. There is no other choice before Stardew, other than Harvest Moon and Story of Seasons, one is only a shell of its former glory, and the other one is locked behind a console.
