I played 100 days of Stardew Valley but as a Vegan

[@TheLazyBeanss]

On the poll, I voted for vegan but miner was winning😭. Im so glad you picked vegan even though miner is fun just less original

[@GamerGarYT]

Thanks for watching :D 😀 I was excited to do vegan for a while now :) I have a mod pack assembled for miner :)

I am glad you completed a full year not just 100 days.

[@GamerGarYT]

Me too :D It felt a lot more fulfilling to complete a year instead of 100 to be honest.

[@CJonesApple]

Happy to see you actually do a year. It just feels more complete and you get to do a Feast of the Winter Star event

[@GamerGarYT]

Thanks CJonesApple :D, it was nice to experience the Winter Star event and give the NPC's presents and stuff and it didn't take that much longer to finish because I was almost at the end of the session when it got to Winter 16th anyways so it was just a small little final push :D

[@Persephone0440]

Your commitment level to challenges never fails to impress. Idea for the future-100 days a fashionista, where you try to get as many unique clothing items as possible?

[@GamerGarYT]

Hi luvtwilightromance :D thanks so much for watching :D I tried 100 Days as a Fashion designer twice now already but deleted the saves after spring because I could not get into the proper grove to make the video compelling. I will try fashion designer again down the road once I am able to make a suitable framework for best way to play to obtain clothes, hats and boots and make the video entertaining :D lol Great minds tho :D

Congrats on the new addition!! Really enjoyed this challenge, it was something v different!! Have you thought about 100 days as a jeweller? So you can only make money from crafting rings? Could be fun but also challenging!! Thanks for all your hard work ❤❤

[@GamerGarYT]

Thanks for the idea! 100 Days as a jewlers sounds very interesting. It would be a lot of runs through the mines but I would have to find mods to make it more interesting :D It's something that is on the list for sure :D

[@Stitchy.puzzler]

You can also fish in the water outside the "spa" building. You only get trash and a mystery painting.

[@GamerGarYT]

I wonder could I have avoided the fishing tutorial if I fished in the bathhouse area. It's worth investigating :D Saying that you cannot use the bathhouse area during winter :P Thanks for watching :D

[@endless_del]

level 100 in the mines with a training rod would probably do it! can't even hook lava eels with that rod and i don't think any other fish spawn there

[@Y_Llew_Tew]

Ah. 16:30 Clams in a fish pond produce roe and they’re an ingredient in chowder. I know the description says “Someone lived here once” but there seems to be enough of the creature left.

[@hisen3.146]

Being a vegan in SDV sounds pretty easy. You can just eat the spring on- Oh... Oh no...

[@CJonesApple]

Yeah, everything does have an amount of bugs. As a veggie it's just damage reduction. There's no 100% vegan, it's the effort to get there.

[@Y_Llew_Tew]

There’s nothing in the game that says you weren’t already aware of Vincent’s bombshell.

[@BriyithGale]

great video!, the vegan CC bundles look fun but hard to do lol, but i think the worst is the non combat mines/skull caverns

[@GamerGarYT]

I totally agree BriyithGale :D The bundles where hard but the mines and skull caverns where sometimes too hard to the point where I had to leave and go back in hoping for better enemy spawns :P

[@TuesdaysArt]

I made my own Vegan challenge for Stardew Valley (not a mod, but a set of restrictions) and I didn't include non-combat because I figured that the monsters are actively attacking you and you're only attacking out of self defense. Plus, I figured no fishing or animal products was hard enough as is (especially with vanilla CC, I had no clue there was a vegan cc mod).

[@DeeSimsYT]

I loved this! What mod are you using for the food icon overrides?

[@Alex.S.1]

Always wondered what a vegan challenge run would be like, but was too lazy to do it myself. So thanks for the run 😁 As a vegan myself: You know you are allowed to defend yourself, right? If I walk through a dark cave and some strange creature attacks me, I will kill it. Also stealing fruit from the bats is not cool 🤣 I also think most vegans would object to participating in the egg festival, as it celebrates exploiting chickens.

[@GamerGarYT]

Hi Alex :D fair points Thanks for the feedback :D

Hi CariY :D Yes I managed to get to skull cavern before completing the vault bundles because of a community centre reward of 5 warp totems to the dessert thanks to a new Vegan bundle.

[@NeuroticChihuahua]

I was surprised you went bat cave on the vegan farm because benefiting from their labour? Haha Awesome challenge video though I love these 100 day themed runs

I never actually taught about that when I was collecting the fruit. Perhaps we done a fair deal where I provide them with shelter and they provide me with fruit :D lol

[@NeuroticChihuahua]

@@GamerGarYT haha fair enough! Double surprise because I know how prevalent mushrooms can be in vegan cooking too haha

[@laurettadelmar2781]

I’m surprised you didn’t get pigs actually because the truffles they find are just dug up from the ground. They don’t make them therefore it wouldn’t be an animal product. You went with bats which is the same thing in my head as they ‘find’ the fruit. Not a criticism just an observation - really loved the premise and challenge of the video ☺️

[@GamerGarYT]

Remember Cookies are made with Eggs Most of the time. & Milk.

[@GamerGarYT]

that's correct but they can also be made with water :D, which is why I sold them :D I did a lot of Vegan food searching online before I started the challenge to ensure I would not mess up any of the rules to the best of my abilities :P The same goes for Bread too :D

[@mirjanbouma]

Most but not all! I've made a lot of cookies in my youth with just flour, sugar, and plant based butter. Although I think it's called shortbread in English... But they're definitely cookies.

[@robertskitch]

I'm doing a vegan run myself and I'd say that it's not about whether animal products are part of something but about whether your use/acquisition of that thing contributes to animal harm. If you come across leather boots in a chest then those boots already exist and the harm's already been done. It's not like you're purchasing them and subsidising the harm of animals or creating a market for such; and it's not like trashing the boots will make the animal come back. At this point I think that there's arguably not that big a difference between using the boots and throwing them away. Same with the lightning rod. Really I think that it's best to make use of resources that have already been exploited rather than needing to exploit more. Also, just to be contrary, I'm going to point out that the oil maker is crafted using slime. 😉

[@akirananimoto5843]

I guess I never thought of it, but are you actually not able to enter the adventurer's guild if you don't slay those original 10 slimes?

[@mirjanbouma]

That's right. I wonder if one of the mods he used gets you around that.

[@GamerGarYT]

That's right. I never entered the adventurers guild in the challenge because I could not complete the requirement for it :D

[@unoreversecard24]

theoretically could you not still fish and just escape any hits on fish. not sure why you would other than possibly using green algae as an early game food or fishing trash to use in that machine (never remember the name) good video by the way, i really like the concept and as a vegetarian (even though most people think i’m a vegan person since i don’t like the texture of leather and don’t tend to eat eggs very often and i can’t stomach dairy)

[@unoreversecard24]

i wonder whether you’d consider it part of you rules if you were to get a fish pond and you fished only if you put the fish in the pond? ethically i think it depends on who you ask as to whether you should keep fish as pets. then again there is usually a difference between fish you’d get at a pet store than just in a lake or something maybe instead of fishing them up yourself you could only get the fish from the travelling cart that comes on fridays and sundays. just furthering the concept of a vegan stardew valley

[@GamerGarYT]

Hi unoreversecard :D The game would not let me fish up anything else until IO passed the fishing tutorial :P I tried several times but the tutorial kept popping up. Thanks for watching :D In relation to fishing in general I decided it would be more challenging for me to not fish at all with the exception of Linus's quest for trash .

Hi davarrashayde6903, its a great question indeed. So in terms of the Bat cave, it didnt really cross my mind to be honest when I selected it. I didn't think at the time to myself " Ohh no, I cant do that because I am abusing bats by taking their hard earned food" so after It dawned on me, especially after I said I cant use truffles with Pigs I said to myself that the bats where gifting me the fruit for giving them a safe place to live :P

Wouldn’t the fruit bat cave count as animal labor, and shouldn’t it therefore be banned?
