FARMING SIMS: plant you a turnip
Posts
It's a weird game.
To see what it was like, while playing an actual run with friends
My current (and apparently longest running) play through I went full villain, named my farm Heartbreak Farm, and am marrying, divorcing, and mind wiping everyone except for whoever I decide is last (probably Sam?). It's kind of fun to play it this way at this point, because ultimately there's no consequences and to be honest I prefer the community center placement for the movie theater and it drives me nuts that Clint goes and spends all of Friday dicking around at the community center, plus I can buy auto petters for my army of pigs. It's one of the few games where making the bad choice doesn't actually have any gameplay or personal relationship consequences long term, so I can do it without feeling extremely guilty. Eventually I want to buy it for PC and then mod it, and that'll be a fun and novel playthrough, but for now on the Switch this is the best thing I've got to change it up after however many hundreds of hours.
Spoiler for post-community center stuff in case someone in the farming sim game thread doesn't want spoilers on an old game
the main limitation with community center route is that you need a rainy day or lightning storm to make the last bundle available, so if you finish the community center in winter you may have to wait a while to see the cut scene, and therefore might not know it is an option
(Yes I have somehow never completed the community centre, in 8 years)
Apparently introduced with 1.4 in November 2019, along with tailoring, fish ponds, and
"Junimo Kart has been completely redone and is now actually fun" which I find very debatable

It's real fun! You run a bathhouse for ghosts in a small modern Japanese village. I recommend it.
Oh my GOD.
Stardew Valley copied a lot itself.
One of my favorite things in CI is the TV programs, they're very in the vein of the original DS friends of mineral town in their cheesiness. It makes me angry it doesn't auto choose your tool tho; once they gave me that in Fae Farm i never wanna go back
thanks to this thread and Magic Pink in specific I have several farming sims on the go at once (Sandrock, Coral Island, Tribal: Primitive Builder, Medieval Dynasty) but I'm now also redownloading inquisitor again
Want to play co-op games? Feel free to hit me up!

I just like the absurdity that this lady, who is basically a long time farmer's wife, just discovered the concept of.... BREAD.
(also, I can't make it until I upgrade my cooking machine to Tier 3)

And you know what, she makes a really good point.
Was it a violet? Apparently most characters in the game have negative reactions from violets for some reason
She actually complained about the bouquet that I gave as part of the quest in the beginning of the game. And then later I tried another flower since I don't really have anything to lose yet anyway, and she was just as unhappy. Wasn't a violet and both are showing up on her "Hates" list. I have learned my lesson.
I then discovered that she likes potatoes.

he's so cute why
Turns out in the trailer he’s a merman… That’s TWO of my weaknesses.

Dear Satan.....
there's a land based incredibly hot silver haired guy that's a construction worker in game that, despite having a name and journal entry, is only on the island for like three days and then vanishes completely
Definitely, there's even at least a few quests that still end in a big WIP
Plus there was this bizarre thing where the camera seemed locked to the heads of NPCs so when you were talking with them resulted in it rocking with every motion they made.
