The Stardew Valley Love Bomb

[@KnifeWife-vx6hx]

The day in the life of an introvert- dont meet Elliot, dont meet Pam, dont go into town 😂

[@SpeedyCat28]

Real 🗿

[@jiancarlosem6184]

So real🌚

[@dimwarlock]

And marry the one you like without much interaction, seems like a curse more than just being introverted.

[@Rabbitzan]

Yes unfortunately I am struggling with the extrovert run because I am an introvert.. it's so daunting to meet everyone everyday.. and remember everyones birthday.

[@raineob4996]

Digging up the entire beach over and over, selling out the town to Joja and rebuilding Ginger Island just so that you can stalk Emily for the one time she isn’t in town to be able to make her your fiancée in the span of two and a half days is the most over-the-top hilarious strategy I’ve ever seen.

[@Maker0824]

This is only the second worse strategy that he’s done to get a big number for a category in the smallest possible number of days. Don’t look up how he got max level combat in one day.

[@jamescanjuggle]

"Hey Clint, what do you be thinking all day digging at the beach? What do you even find there..." "Love Farmer, I'm looking for..love"

[@gabrielkelvin1970]

*Caroline is surprised to see the new farmer at the door of the shop. He's been in town for nearly a year, but sleeps for months at a time, doesn't talk to anyone and has randomly started tearing up the beach for hours on end each day in the middle of winter and proceeds to sell her husband countless hidden yams.* Farmer: oh hey, I'm - WAIT, NO, I SHOULDN'T HAVE TALKED TO YOU! *Caroline is confused but before she can answer, she feels the world ripple, and suddenly, her universe is wiped clean and she is annihilated as the farmer continues to curse. With rage in his heart he resets the universe to start again - eventually his perfect, reality warping scheme will play out to get the hippy waiter down the street to marry him two days after meeting.*

[@cakeyeater7392]

Hilarious that Clint never woos Emily despite her being willing to marry a stranger so long as they have wool, cauliflower, wild horse radish, and gems (which he also likes)

[@MoleculesAndMinecraft]

@@cakeyeater7392 He'd certainly have a good chance- if only he would actually try instead of incessantly chickening out. He could just bring her a gem and say, "Emily, I've always thought you were really pretty," and he'd be like halfway to dating her. But nooooo, talking to Emily is gonna bite apparently.

[@abbilocke736]

Personality-wise, I think Emily would be the most likely to marry someone after a whirlwind romance. It’s so cool that that’s true even in the game’s code! Great video as always

[@chaoticpemmins748]

I was not ready to learn that Emily is a Romantic Comedy protagonist, because that does make a lot of sense and seems like something Emily would do

[@kinsan89]

I mean... she drugs you then gives you a lap dance. The fact that she isn't marryable at 0 hearts seems like a glitch

Emily being the one you can meet and propose to within 40 hours honestly fits her character

[@thewolfofthestars1847]

I actually love bombed Leah completely by accident my first playthrough, lol. I noticed her birthday was that day so decided to give her a gift, and then realized a few days later that she was my Secret Santa as well. She shot right up from barely knowing me to being insanely in love within a few days. Unfortunately for her, I ain't the marrying type... I ended up marrying Abigail a few years later for Perfection, but then decided to divorce her a while afterwards bc I just ain't about that married life. I will always feel a bit bad for making Leah fall so hard for me only to snub her though, lol

Don't meet Elliott.... after having had a day where I went to a restaurant where my client and I met some other folks with the most laid-back St. Bernard with fluffy fur for the second time... that is called Elliott!

Believe me, this Elliott you would want to meet!

I'm sure blade will explain it better, but basically some bubbles will carry through from the previous day when played consecutively (i.e. without exiting to the menu at all), but those ones will disappear if you reload the day. Bubbles that start during a day will stay the same if you reload that day.
