Shane has such a rewarding story. I feel like I did some really good work by helping Shane turn his life around. It was well worth always having peppers in my pocket. I was unhappy that his room and some dialogue didn't change after his 10 heart events so I used a mod to tidy it up a bit.

I kind of sympathize with Shane still being a slob even after switching to sparkling water. It's his room and he can decorate it however he wants - yes, even if that means never cleaning up the scuffed footsteps he made that one time he didn't realize his shoes would leave marks on the flooring. Plus, if those cans only contained flavored water, the lack of real sugar means they won't attract ants.

Ironically, Shane is the easiest dance partner in year one because of his early birthday. If you give him a loved birthday gift and try to gift/talk to him regularly you can get to 4 hearts by then pretty quickly.

[@usernametaken017]

​@@ardencrossingYou just need to enable him

[@ToastAndJellyfish]

@ardencrossing Nah, Haley. The girl you’d expect to like posh, expensive things also has a spring birthday and can be at four hearts before the dance just by giving her daffodils you found on the ground. Plus she actually changes her behavior, develops new interests that she actually acts on instead of letting one-off heart events do the heavy lifting, and gets invested in the community. Meanwhile, Shane still shows up to mope in a corner at the saloon even if he’s a bit less of a douchebag to the farmer, doesn’t bother cleaning up after himself… And you’ve gotta pay money to enable his issues. I slept on Haley for way too long, tbh. Never again, she’s easy to make friends with and honestly the best spouse out of the bunch in terms of character development, and pitching in around the farm.

Some tips I hope are helpful: For Gus, I try to find a fish taco at the Saloon to save for his birthday, same with Caroline. This is my go-to Year 1 loved gift for them. I give any Joja Colas I find to Sam, because he’s the only NPC who likes them and they don’t sell for much or give a lot of energy. Same with Leah and driftwood! Shane is probably the easiest NPC to quickly befriend if you give him a beer on his birthday and dance with him at the Flower Dance. So far, he’s been the ONLY character I’ve ever been able to dance with on Year 1! Elliott loves pomegranate, something you already need for the regular Community Center bundles, so if you manage to buy a sapling in time for it to grow before Fall, easy loved birthday gift right there. Spaghetti is sold EVERY DAY in the Saloon, which is one of Robin’s loved gifts. Linus loves yams! Grow one in Fall to give on his birthday. I give the Dwarf any spare dwarf scrolls I find since they only sell for 1g each, though you can also give them to Penny. Both like artifacts! Finally, Sebastian likes flounders. Hehe, wonder what that’s a reference to?

I have a weird satisfaction towards Willy because, although he's one of my favorite NPCs to befriend in the entire game, I actually don't befriend him because of a certain cutscene that triggers an event. This is spoilers though, but basically Willy's 6-heart event will trigger a small event in which Gus will sell unlimited Crab Cakes for the next 3 days. This is like peak happiness for me, because I waited until I had at least 1M gold to spare, then just spent it all on stacks of Crab Cakes, which means for my day-to-day loadout, it's just Crab Cakes + TSE from Hot Java Ring, meaning +2 Speed at all times.

[@nesso.9944]

I married Leah on my mobile version playthrough and then Emily when I first got the PC version of the game. I found both of them to be really awesome spouses! But I have to say that being roommates with Krobus is now my favorite thing to do after I did it in my last run. One perk that I didn't see mentioned in this video is that he'll make you lucky lunches! I also just think he's really cute and his dialogue pulls at my heartstrings after you become roomies. I think it's cool that you can have a very significant platonic relationship in this game.

[@slwrabbits]

Lucky lunches are amazing for skull cavern staircase runs (who needs defense or speed if you're just looking for treasure floors). The fried eel he also gives you aren't as powerful, but still free. Krobus is best buddy!

[@L337N1NJ4L1NK]

The real trick to high friendship with the villagers is apricots. The seeds are cheap, you can grow a ton of the trees in the Greenhouse and everyone likes them. You can use any fruit tree (and I generally have 2 of each in my greenhouse) but apricots are the cheapest to grow and you can easily have a good stock of them grown before the end of fall in year 1. Using fruit tree fruit keeps you from having to worry about giving the wrong items to specific villagers or having to remember specific exceptions to loved or liked gifts. And it solves the annoyance of getting those hard to find gifts for some villagers (like Penny).

[@emilyggg]

A nice tip for 1.6: Evelyn now likes getting broken glasses and Leah likes getting driftwood

[@ham8426]

Robin loves goat cheese which is pretty easy to do and especially easy to find her when you have her working on farm buildings. Arguably way easier than fussing with a peach tree, though iirc Spaghetti is regularly also available at the saloon, really Gus is the key to friendship overall as most people have loved dishes which can be found there, some regularly and others randomly.

[@Xeyxey0]

My go-to easy liked gift is corn. If you collect mixed seeds during spring and plant them all during Summer (2 regrowables from the pool, and corn grows 2 seasons), plus you get peppers from mixed seeds too, which are good for Lewis and Shane. For the few that don't like corn, (Abi, Pierre, kids, Sam, Haley), they like tortilla which just requires 1 corn, if you have the kitchen.

[@penguindrummaster]

With Penny being disappointed in her mother, spending all her time in the museum, and liking artifact gifts...is it possible that ConcernedApe is trying to tell us Penny aspires to be an archaeologist? That would explain the geodes in the mail too, if she spent a large amount of time digging up artifact spots. I find it funny how the dialogue in the game can be so plain at times, but then I'm blown away by the inferred story beats, like how Penny doesn't like any alcoholic drinks because her mother drinks too much, or how Clint likes all gems except Diamond (because Diamond is just Coal under pressure, so why would he like it?). Same thing with Emily liking all gems except Diamond (because she thinks the color of the gem needs to match the aura of the person receiving it). You even pointed out one of the implied story moments I've never seen, when Shane becomes a spouse and there's beer cans and muddy footprints. I've said it before, but 1) this game is amazing, and 2) your videos have vastly improved my experience in playing. Thank you for all you do!

I'm a new player and I've spent so much time in the wiki trying to make all the villagers be my friends

For Willy I keep a Catfish if higher quality to give him on his b-day 😊 For Elliot I find Duck Feather or Pomegranade as the easiest gift (Bat Cave might give you one for his b-day in higher quality ❤ For Robin - best gift is the Goat Cheese - same for Leah. When it comes to Sebastian the best gift is Void Egg.

a few loved gifts that are also easy to obtain: Haley loves sunflowers, which can be grown summer-fall, and Maru loves cauliflowers, which can be grown in spring! Also Willy loves catfish, if you happen to have the skill to catch those. Elliott also loves pomegranates and duck feathers, so if you have the fruit cave/tree, or ducks, he's pretty easy. Abigail loves pumpkins, which you can get in higher quality! Robin loves goat cheese (same with Leah), so you if you have goats that's an easy one. Sebastian loves void eggs, and Harvey loves truffle oil.

Here are a few sustainable gift items for the marriage candidates. I usually set these up before marrying them to make sure I maintain the relationship. A spouse’s dialogue once your relationship decays can be pretty heartbreaking or even brutal. Abigail: keep some amethysts in crystalariums (although they’re pretty easy to get), trade rubies for spicy eels at the desert, or keep some pumpkins growing in your greenhouse/garden pots (a recipe from Evelyn once the greenhouse is complete). Alex: rabbit’s foot-get a few rabbits and just keep ‘em coming unless you’re willing to keep making his favorite dishes. The “easiest” would be salmon dinner. Keep a salmon fish pond and grow some amaranth and kale in your greenhouse/garden pot. I’d settle for giving him eggs or other such liked gifts if you can’t be bothered. Elliott: duck feathers and pomegranates Emily: wool from sheep/rabbits, any gem besides diamonds in crystalariums Haley: sunflowers in the greenhouse/garden pot, and coconuts if you often go to the desert/ginger island Harvey: coffee! Complete Evelyn and George’s special order to get a coffee machine to make you a cup every day. Truffle oil is another easy-to-make item in the spring to fall. Leah: goat cheese, truffle, salad from the saloon Maru: strawberries, diamonds, cauliflowers, and her dishes (pepper poppers and cheese cauliflower) are pretty easy to make as well Penny: emeralds, diamonds, melons, and poppies Sam: cactus fruit and pizza. Pizza can be bought at the saloon every day and cactus fruit can be grown in a garden pot once you get seeds from Oasis, a shop run by Sandy in the desert. Sebastian: void eggs from a void chicken, sashimi from crab pot fish, and frozen tears from the mines (flr 40-79). Pumpkin soup (from Robin) is also pretty easy to make (just pumpkins and milk) and it’s a great dish to bring to the skull caverns. Shane: hot peppers in garden pots and pizzas from the saloon.

Don’t forget some NPCs will go to the Altar of Yoba on some days as well as some of the Mom’s getting together at Pierre’s house to do stuff with Caroline

I usually just get a summer coffee farm going and then use coffees to make friends, because its liked or neutral by all the villagers except the children.

I’m so glad ConceredApe supports LGBTQ+. I’m really happy that you can lesbian or gay.

[@tangyjenna]

I've blown myself and my farm up so many times from Kent's bomb mail

[@ItzArmadillo]

me grinding amethysts as soon as the mine opens up on spring 5 to start romancing abigail as soon as I possibly can

[@ProperSnake]

Most replayed feature proving Leah is the best bachelorette

[@annecantgame]

Alex was the spouse I had for the first pay through i did, I gave him so many earth crystals. Willy I usually give him a catfish, but I think there's some other fish he likes but I cant remember

[@tossoutacc9241]

Octopus, sea cucumber, and sturgeon

[@avatarninjacat]

It really upsets me how much you hate on my darling Penny. Her backstory is heartbreaking, she talks about her abusive father who abandoned her, her last heart event gives exclusive items, and she is still a very sweet spouse. My girl every playthrough.

[@Hsjsududswhsjdjxizzioao]

"Gus: this man will be at the saloon every single day, you cannot mess this up" *watch me*

[@thespaciestkid7545]

Shane also loves Pizza, which is also always available at the Saloon! So if you’re like me and a little baby about giving an alcoholic more alcohol, you can spend a little extra money and give him pizza!

[@ald7282]

i always grow a TON of tulips and give them to both evelyn (obviously) and alex (i love him but his loves are so high maintenance)

[@tossoutacc9241]

Tbh with Alex just give him the pumpkin until you can unlock all the cooked stuff he likes, also I gave him cheese for a while and he liked it pretty good so yk if you wanna build up hearts fast

[@berrytofu9559]

at my first playthrough making friends was the big reason I didn't get 4 candles on the year 3 evaluation💀 i was only being friends with shane because he likes beer and is always at the bar and linus because he accepts everything

[@tomato7300]

I was trying to do the entry to give Pam pale ale but didn’t read it right and thought she just wanted beer so I was pleased to find out it was one of her loves and it didn’t go to waste at least lol

[@CobaltContrast]

Abagail eats rocks to restore her mana. Clearly the wizard's child.

[@dearls921]

I’be just started playing this week, going off what I have already learned in some of your other videos, great work btw, you can get almost half the friendship points in one week giving the highest quality gifts twice then a third time on their bday? Pretty poggers to know, not even counting the talking to them each day
