Please see this post for reference to what art may more accurately look like for answers. I appreciate all the support in this adventure.

One of my favourite long-delayed jokes is in "Psych": Over 8 series we get people shitting on the unseen "Officer Dobson", blaming minor things on him, talking about how he screwed the pooch, and our lead character Shawn also bonds with most of the cast about a shared love of Val Kilmer, even Dobson who won't stop talking about him off camera. Finale comes around, and Shawn leaves a video message for all of his friends, including his beloved Officer Dobson: the camera pans back to reveal Val Kilmer playing Dobson and going: "Who the hell is that? I don't know him." 10/10, exactly the thing I'd do with a show like "Psych"

HIIIII TUMBLR. SINCE IM NOTICING PEOPLE TAKING AN INTEREST IN DOBSON (and a certain mutual reblogging one of my posts mentioning wanting to know his lore :3), I'M GONNA GIVE YOU THE RUNDOWN OF IT. THAT WAY, YOU TOO CAN UNDERSTAND THIS ENIGMA OF A MAN.

Here's all I know from bits and pieces I've gotten from ConcernedApe comments I've seen + the original cutscene

Here's the cutscene dialogue I was referring to for your viewing pleasure.

Dobson would've been the original Joja-Based rival for Stardew Valley. Meaning, if he was present in the game there's a chance we wouldn't have Morris instead. Imagine that

I imagine if Dobson were added there would've been more planned in terms of the ending of the Joja Route. During his beginning cutscene, he mentions getting enough signatures to instate a Joja Hypermarket. I imagine this would've introduced something similar to the end-game Joja Route Supermarket SVE introduces.

Adding onto the Dobson Asshat mention, Dobson would've been significantly more confrontational as opposed to Morris. There's a reply to a comment on youtube where ConcernedApe mentions that Dobson would've done more to inconvenience you throughout the year. He was also bolder, and overall less afraid of masking his actual feelings about those around him/his goals. Again, in order to make who to support less clear, keeping this would've muddied the narrative.

Based on the timeline, I want to assume his development was around the time that Stardew Valley was going to have a completion requirement of around an in game year. It would've been easier to complete the community center I assume, so he would've been there to balance out the lack of difficulty. This was removed due to the fact that ConcernedApe didn't want players to feel rushed, and instead wanted them to go at their own pace in their gameplay.

Given he would've inconvenienced the farmer through the year, I like imagining he would've pulled extremely underhanded things in order to temporarily halt your progression. Like... ripping cables from the mine elevator to keep you from getting geodes and other things, putting something in the rivers to keep you from fishing that day, destroying crops, things of that matter. I said this in my first HC post but he was literally built to cause chaos and mayhem.

There genuinely isn't much about him online, but I do love the fact that he would've genuinely been an absolute little shit regardless. Man has many enemies and not a care in the world.

I'm planning on making a few HC posts about him later, but here's what I know about the existing information revolving on him and why it's so so so so so hard to get a grasp of his potential character. (And why its so fun seeing different, yet oddly similar portrayals of the guy)

Going Low Contact

Generational cycles and childhood abuse.

CW for discussion of childhood abuse I’m choosing to skip out on winter / fall holiday celebrations with my family this year. My last visit with them was a bit emotionally stressful and highlighted some long-term family problems. Some of those problems center around my dad and how he chose to treat me and my siblings as children. In the post I linked above I talked about how physical violence…

GOOD MORNING AND GOOD LUCK TO ALL THOSE STARTING SCHOOL SOON OR HAVE ALREADY!

I'm so freaked for my first day at college today (even as a late starter)... so here's a sketch of Dobson I made in an attempt to cool my jets.

do you like men

I like anyone who can meet my standards, actually. Someone like me only deserves the best you know. Not like you'd ever be able to know what those are, or what the best is, or how to achieve it.

But yes, you could say I like men.
