fantasy stardew valley (fields of mistria) seems like a pretty good game actually. you meet a dragon spirit and it has the heart shape crystal next to its name that all the single villagers have

the mechanics and design philosophy are lifted straight from SDV with some animal crossing mixed in. there are some unique mechanics tho, the art is gorgeous, the characters and worldbuilding seems really fleshed out

i havent played a lot but i am impressed so far. it seems like a harvestmoon-like with more focus on story and character interactions, but with all the progression and skills and collection of sdv

i've played every fucking harvestmoon-like under the sun and this seems like an excellent one. but it Really is just fantasy stardew. a lot of the graphics are extremely similar. everything is reminiscent of sdv. it almost seems like a total conversion mod of stardew valley.

but there are hot npcs and a fuckable dragon

I've started stardew valley and was wondering if you use them what mods you recommend

Eye havent played in a while, but I definitely used a free love/multiple spouses mod! I dont remember what it was called, but you should probably look for one that makes it so their rooms are added to your house smoothly. I also used a "Clean Shane's room" mod, and a mod that turned Sebastian's motorcycle pink. I also had a pink motorcycle mod on my horse. Lets see.... some general asthetic/furniture mods, I think a fishtank one, and.. Oh!! A mod that made the kid on Ginger Island actually look like a kid, and other story mod where you can adopt him. That was fun. Sorry eye dont have any specific links lol !

i havent answered that survey bc i dont actually know what my type is...

so instead im gonna list off a bunch of characters from games i remember playing either to marriage or were pursuing and yall can figure out my type for me

a wonderful life (original): cecilia (to be fair ive married each of the girls at least once but i think ive married her the most

another wonderful life: rock

sos wonderful life: molly

a new beginning: i dont remember possibly allen, i never got far and i learned from tumblr hes pretty awful so if i ever go back idk who im picking

animal parade: i THINK i was gonna go for the wizard, i never really go for the ones that require extra work

ds cute: skye, i lied

sunshine island: vaughn, i barely even remember this game

friends of mineral town: popuri

more friends of mineral town: kai (pretty sure?)

sos mineral town: honestly idk i think at first rick but i might change my mind if i play again

tale of two towns: honestly i dont know

trio of towns: i have barely played this one and havent met like...most of the characters

sos: raeger

tree of tranquility: julian, like the only non awl hm/sos game i got married in

poot: iori

sun haven: liam

rf1: possibly melody? i havent played rf1 in yearsss and i dont think i got too far

rf3: pia, this goes for the remake as well tho i havent gotten that far yet

tod: probably aden, i never got far enough to even unlock the female player but man...what a bummer of choices...

rf4: originally i think i was going for doug but ive been slightly spoiled on things so, as for the remake idk....ive just been doing wahtever

rf5: i have NO idea in that i am interested in way too many characters possibly murakumo or ryker, tho i like ludmilla as well...if only i wasnt too lazy to do multiple runs

mistria: march, so far at least

stardew: seb was my first choice and i got really close, i also had files for sam, harvey (specifically bc of the monster mod), and emily and i cant remember my other runs...but my current is the only time i actually made it to marriage and i married elliot mostly bc i was just seeing who had the most hearts

palia: tbh they dont really interest me....i guess the robot one is ok

elnea: is it even worth counting this one? idk how different the characters act...i know theres like 64? personality types but whatever timothy from the keown state

portia: i literally almost forgot but also i....i dunno? havent really gotten too attached to any of them from my memory

hello hello got to thinking about starting yet another farm on stardew and remembered you played. What platform do you play on and if it's PC are there any mods you use and would recommend? So far I have mostly aesthetic ones in mind but not sure where to start for ones that actually add to or tweak existing gameplay/mechanics/content.

hi hi hi!! i play on PC (tho it has taken literally all my will power to not buy it again on mobile so i can play at work)

im playing unmodded atm, but i have played around with some mods before. the first mod i used was the CJB Cheats mod, bc a friend installed it for me while we were playing multi player. i generally prefer playing without cheats, but god the increased movement speed is so nice sometimes (and i dont even use crazy speeds when i use it, i just up it by like 1 or 2)

for aesthetic mods id recommend the mods by Junimod and DustBeauty (tho i havent used mods in a while so idk how compatible they are with the current version of the game)

i also seriously recommend the Stardew Valley Expanded mod its huge and so well done, the new NPCs and map areas are amazing, i played it for a while and still didnt get to everything, and im sure they've done more awesome stuff since the 1.5 update

Hey! I see you have good story telling recs for like video games and stuff and I just got a ps4, is there anything you recommend? I have wolf among us and Detroit become human on my list THATS all I have so far

omg girl u have come to the RIGHT place ! story-based games are my shit ok... im gonna start by doing a lil self-plug which is that i’m streaming one i really love called firewatch tonight (at 7pm PST hehe) on my twitch so we can start with that one. its such a pretty game and has a really touching story. but that aside, non-exhaustive list below:

the last of us — i havent played the second one yet, but both 1&2 are playstation exclusive i believe and the first one is probably one of the greatest games ever made. better than most movies i’ve watched story-wise; i fell in love with the characters and i doubt anyone could play this without shedding a few tears.

the walking dead by telltale — same studio that made the wolf among us (which i fucking love also), and all four seasons of this game are a masterpiece. clementine is probably my all time favorite video game character, and there were some side characters who i really sobbed over during the course of the game. plus all the characters you play as are characters of color so there’s a specific attention to diverse viewpoints there!

life is strange — i would hope you’d have played this already if you like story games, but if not, go play the original game ASAP (LiS2 is alright, but the first one is what really shines) and you can also play the prequel before the storm. beautiful atmosphere, attention to detail, gameplay mechanics, etc. good good shit

dragon age — HELLO my fave shit omg, again not to self-plug but i’m gonna be doing a stream series of this and starting with an intro to the lore for beginners because there is serious worldbuilding for these games and the storylines are immaculate. there’s three so far and including the various DLC you will be entertained for weeks if not months.

mass effect — made by the same studio as dragon age, essentially it’s dragon age in space. same great characters, worldbuilding, plotlines, etc. just... ignore andromeda and only play the main three ME games.

uncharted — i will fucking die for naughty dog games omg so they also made the last of us plus all 4 uncharted games and these ones are SO much fun. much less emotional turmoil, think indiana jones in the present day with an extra serving of wisecracking banter and there you go. really excellent fully fleshed out female characters as well. nathan drake is a treasure.

until dawn — more of a horror game but has weirdly excellent actors (hello rami malek???) and a super cool/creepy story with not so much focus on combat (more QTE based) which helps when you’re just there to be entertained. i love this game, i’m not a huge horror person myself but it’s just so good and your choices really impact the outcome.

oxenfree — deeply underrated game with some of my favorite voice acting ever, such a gorgeous art style, and an incredible and resonant story. so much lore to unpack here too, this game was really made with so much love (like there is deadass a morse code message hidden in the beat of the main song that leads to an irl mystery... google that shit its so cool) and it has major replay value. lots of choices to make and they all impact the ending in a ton of ways.

pillars of eternity — i actually liked the second one more than the first one and i enjoyed them both a lot so that’s saying something! you can play on easy mode and ignore the fighting and there’s tons of quests and choices to make and an interesting story/mystery to uncover. plus in the second one you get a pirate ship.

divinity original sin 2 — played this recently and it’s definitely more of a combat game, but as with POE you can just play on the easiest setting lol and then explore the game for its world and storyline. similar to POE in that it’s quest-based as well, the characters are super well done, and it’s all voice-acted which is nice.

star wars knights of the old republic (aka KOTOR) — listen this game is old as hell and looks like ass but its so good. idk what else to say i mean its literally like 20 years old and people are still playing it. there’s a ton of mods you can download to make it look better, but the storyline and the plot twist hold up as one of the all time greats. i’ve replayed it and the sequel multiple times. even if you don’t like star wars, worth it.

stardew valley — HELLO THIS GAME IS SO CUTE its essentially just harvest moon and yes it’s pixel graphics but it’s so charming and the characters are very enchanting. there’s not a ton of story but it’s still worth a play as it’s just very soothing and earnest. i’ve logged like 200+ hours in this game lmao

hopefully you haven’t heard of all of these already!! i love all of these games and i love sharing story-based recs because there aren’t a lot of them out there. if anyone knows of any other good ones please drop ur thoughts in the replies!

What sims game do you play, and what other games do you enjoy?

ive been playing all the main sims games since i was a wee lass... tho im playing sims 2 after 10+ years and its SO nostalgic and fun i was almost crying omg. havent dug deep into mods for it yet.

besides that i rotate my hyperfixation of ck2, ck3, dead by daylight, rimworld, and stardew ... .... im not rlly good at finishing games w an actual story lol.

[winderrific-moved]

Ez you gotta find sdv sprite mods.. the base ones of most are very ugly that's how the game becomes playable

HDHDHDGD I HAVENT ACTUALLY PLAYED STARDEW VALLEY im no good at farming games but like. all the men in that picture looked awful except for one and all the women looked lovely what is UP with THAT

[shinjiiro]

Can you recommend some good games to try before the year ends?

:0 !!!!!

im actually....awful in that i dont think ive played any new games this year so quite a few of these are older, sorry about that!

obviously if u havent played persona 3 thats the top of my list for anyone to play

for games that came out this year though - cuphead is very hard but very fun and very nicely animated and i enjoy it a lot!!! (though i still havent done much in it, rippp) 

it also has local multiplayer if u wanna play w/ someone else like that! multiplayer makes it way harder though, be warned 

va-11 hall-a is actually a pretty cute short game my friend showed me that i rly enjoyed even though i wasnt expecting to - its basically like. youre a bartender in a cyberpunk world and like. its hard to explain but its Good and Fun imo!

going back to older titles tho uhhh

please play stardew valley. please its so cute i know its old but its so cute and i love harvest moon and its sorta like that?? also u can be gay which automatically boosts how good it is imo. i will say id recommend this mod - its entirely cosmetic and just makes the game more diverse because its uhhhh quite white originally 

as for more mainstream games (still old tho bc im... old) dragon age origins and dragon age 2 are my fav da games so if u havent played those defs recommend, same w/ fallout new vegas

oh!! and dishonored and dishonored 2
