Stardew valley is a popular game with people in my generation. Like most video games it's a power fantasy.

In this case about growing food, having a functional "third space" in your community and fixing public transit. Pure escapism.

Also there are magic forest spirits and dungeons with monsters and treasures.

@carrideen

aw man I was pulling for Willy or Gunther. Well Sandy is a nice addition. And I guess Clint deserves a redemption arc. Maybe.

Willy is top of my wish-to-date list after Krobus. It's so easy to make him happy, he just Likes Fish So Much. Plus a lot of the dateable characters are *way* too young for me.

Krobus I would actually get down with. Who doesn't want to date Shadow Daddy?

@AmateurExpert @futurebird I keep trying to love someone else, but I always end up with Krobus. I think he is the only person whose life I am not ruining by marrying them. (Leah and Elliott both kept telling me it is OK they gave up their artistic aspirations to have my children, and I really can't take the guilt.)

@carrideen when I first started playing it I was like "holy hell, why am I trying to live up to my dead grandfather's expectations *in a game*"
There's a bunch of nonsense.
