Let's Play Stardew Valley! Part 1

[@shaynaraine3957]

Gem, did you know that one single person created this game? He made EVERYTHING himself - the music, animations, coding, etc. It really is amazing when you think about it. Also, if you accidently sell something to the shops, you can buy it back from them. Just scroll to the very bottom of their list of items for sale.

[@ErenYeager-sb4bm]

music was latter created

[@daniel4647]

​@@ErenYeager-sb4bm Music is also the only thing that would be hard so that makes sense. Creating everything else would take a lot of time but it wouldn't really be difficult. Still impressive, but I wouldn't say amazing. What's amazing is how popular it got. Lots of other solo devs that makes games that are at least, if not more, complicated to make that never get anywhere close to the recognition this game has gotten.

[@zo0m524]

@@daniel4647 this game has huge personality, really they got lucky and the funding allowed them to make the game what it is now. The same thing could happen to any indie game dev, but at least this one used the money they got to make the game even better

[@6StimuL84]

@@ErenYeager-sb4bm He made all of it, music included.....

Omg, how long did it take?

GeminiTay x Stardew Valley isn’t the mashup we deserve, but it’s the mashup we need ❤️

[@lilyanagiraffe9593]

true

[@kellyharrison9265]

Agreed

[@girofdoom]

Cant wait to watch you play more of this. Stardew is one of my favorite games. Some tips, save gold for the Egg Festival to buy strawberry seeds for next spring and maybe for a havest this year. Great way to make profits. Befriending the kids would be a good idea if you like foraging. I find the mushroom cave tends to be better than the fruit overall for gold and comunity bundles. And the wiki is a great help for gifts, schedules, info on best times to plant and other little things.

[@gbghfbgbhgjngjg5797]

The mushroom cave requires daily activity which i usually forget to check

[@bloodfae]

Imo fruit cave makes better gift early on

[@SairinEarthsea]

The oranges and apples from fruit cave make it a good choice for trying to complete multiple bundles without spending a lot of money on fruit trees.

[@Trainwheel_Time]

@@SairinEarthsea Yep. You can get the mushrooms for the bundle much easier than the fruit. Between the two I find the fruit cave much better if you want to get those bundles done quickly.

[@antiquatedmizfit]

I find the fruit cave mostly full of forage. Mushrooms are the way to go.

[@laras.9970]

I watched the vod while working out today and it was very hilarious to hear "I'm running out of energy" and "my energy is really low" while doing exercises. The situation was different, but I agreed wholeheartedly. I'm very happy to see a new game happening and I hope you'll continue to enjoy it!

[@lorelikesthings]

Oh my God I'm so excited to watch this!! I love Stardew so much so it's awesome to see my favorite KZbinr play it!

[@theultimatenerd9825]

GeminiTay is the best

[@kellyharrison9265]

She is

[@addy9764]

Gem is Great

[@tbuff91]

I have pretty bad anxiety from life and this game is a godsend for just relaxing and putting worries behind you.

[@maxwellwilliams1802]

Holy crap I wish recommendations would have given me this sooner! So excited to see Gem enjoy Stardew!!

[@thewritingsquid]

me, whispering to myself through this entire video: "you do not have time for your own playthrough, you do not have time for your own playthrough, you do not--" (VERY excited for this though!!)

[@nguiklian]

Wow haha I follow you on twitter! Pleasure seeing you here 😄

[@thewritingsquid]

@@nguiklian !! That's awesome. Fancy seeing you here indeed :)

[@jonathanknolls5910]

One of the best games to ever come out, such a simple and relaxing game I hope you enjoy your time playing, so excited to watch!!

[@yermum1396]

It’s one of the only games where the inspired is better than the original!

[@grutarg2938]

I've never played this game, but I remember people talking about it. It's kind of cool to finally see what it's all about.

[@lakeshark1119]

i said “YIPEE!” out loud when seeing this, i love watching and crocheting while watching your videos, and this vod is so perfect

[@jordannnk]

SAME literally crocheting a patchwork cardigan rn!

[@millystars]

me too omg 😭 wish i knew how to crotchet tho!!

[@nap5tablook]

Since you mentioned waiting to open Geodes on a food luck day - they aren't affected by luck. The seed of your save file determines the order in which items come from cracking open geodes, which means that using certain seed checker tools makes it possible to determine which geodes need to opened to get a specific item for the museum for example

[@kithralia7172]

that's not true, they're greatly affected by luck. Opening on a good luck day changed the probability of getting items such as gems, artefacts, etc. On a bad luck day, you are likely to get coal, stone, or clay.

[@nap5tablook]

@@kithralia7172 take a look at the mouseypounds predictor and put any save file in there, and you will see that all geode items are predetermined, including artifact troves and golden coconuts. what you're saying really isn't correct

[@TulipVoid]

​@@kithralia7172no. That's just wrong

[@glitchingsnow]

This is so great. It's the same feeling I had when you joined Hermitcraft: the crossover we didn't know we needed. I love Stardew so much and I know you'll make Great Acres the cutest farm ever ❤looking forward to this series

[@darknesswave100]

This is probably one of my top 2 or 3 games of all time so this is really exciting to see you play through the game

[@cai_ryn]

Gem and Stardew a perfect match, excited for this! There’s so much to the game and that first long play through / first year is always the most magical

[@ZigThePizzaDude]

Loved this stream! Its so fun to see the hermits trying new content!

[@rebeccajensen888]

Gem playing Stardew is a whole vibe ❤️

[@martinneween]

KZbin randomly suggested this to me and I didn’t have a clue that Gem had a second channel?!?!! I’m hooked

[@feliciatalley6693]

Seeing you play stardew is so exciting! It's my favorite game and you're my favorite gaming KZbinr! This made me so happy! Can't wait to see more!

[@elizabethshidingspot6684]

I absolutely love watching your videos after a long day, so finding this other channel of yours with 2 hour long streams is the best gift! I also just found out I can play stardew valley on my device and I’m so excited to play along and watch!!

[@RichardHammer-f6q]

Wooooo! Stardew Valley and Gem! One of my favorite KZbinrs playing one of my favorite games!❤

[@rainey82]

I could listen to Gem read the dictionary. Gem narrating my GPS would improve my commute substantially.

[@_shad3_71]

My favorite game and favorite youtuber! This can't get any better 😁

[@DoubleMcZombie]

Sebastian having an ashtray his mother said "smelled funny" was my deciding factor

[@CuriousMothling]

I know mods are usually a no go for first time players. But I always recommend the UI Mod to at least help with some of the overwhelming feeling. It just has some helpful info on the Screen when hovering over things.

[@FrankieChumber]

Oh my dayssss. My favourite game and one of my favourite KZbin gamers. This is too good

[@lyvaellaevans]

2569.5 hours in Stardew. Absolutely love this game and beyond thrilled to see you doing a playthrough. Always enjoy your content no matter what venue you choose. :) Love your face. :)

[@chaithanyakm7527]

Thats almost 10 times longer than I've played. 🤣 Total 280 hrs out of which I spent 200 hrs in my main world. How do you stay motivated to play for so long? I kind of lose interest once I achieve perfection.

[@lyvaellaevans]

@@chaithanyakm7527 Started many maps over the years with different goals. I am trying to marry each available villager in different maps. I like to try different farms for the decorative aspect. Have a few maps that are multiplayer. Multiplayer is the most fun for me.

[@chaithanyakm7527]

@@lyvaellaevans I've always avoided playing on maps other than standard because I feel I won't have enough space. Maybe I can make it a challenge. Also I play on mobile so no multiplayer. 😢 Ooh maybe I can also decorate the town a little bit. So many new ideas coming up suddenly. Thanks for the reply and have a great day! 😊👍 P.S. Emily is my favourite. I could never leave her. 🤣

Whoa! A hermit playing SDV?! I need this from more Minecraft KZbinrs! Both games mesh so well. Gem, you should 100% convince your closest Minecraft friends to try this game with you and do a little multiplayer SDV series on the side 😁

[@samanthaburger4872]

Ahh so excited!! I just started replaying stardew 💜

[@riverfarms_]

This Stardew stream was such a nice surprise Saturday. It got me to pick up my Switch and start a new farm. Not having much luck foraging so far, but it's such a fun game. Hoping for more cozy Stardew streams in the future.

[@rpederse]

Came across this by accident, but I’m looking forward to more episodes!

[@foomfa4897]

GeminiTay makes me happy. Stardew makes me happy. I also 100%'d Stardew less than a month ago. The stars are aligning!

[@Waste_money]

I love the coziness of stardew streams, I’m so glad I found this in time for my exams, good revision background ❤❤❤

[@kaley1187]

It’s fun watching you play this! You picked my current farm too. I can’t wait to see how you design it. 😊

[@neurospicypisces]

"the winters have been bad, they're warm" haha I'm in Newfoundland too. I'm a single mom and this is the first winter the kids can really help themselves up and down the snow hills and we've only been able to go out sledding once! Haha oh how it goes

Okayyyyy. I'm so excited to see you playing Stardew!!!

[@DaughterOfStardust]

I love playing Stardew while I listen to this; you have such a relaxing way of playing games. Also, I'm not sure if you'll see this Gem, but I think you'd really enjoy Sun Haven as well. It's kind of a fantasy-esque Stardew with a storyline.

[@Jeffcro02]

This channel is very relaxing! Thank you!

[@sithyq3480]

SDV and Minecraft are my favorite games. This will be a really fun playthrough to watch! I'm excited to see how you decorate your farm!

I've watched you in minecraft season 8, and I'm excited to watch you play this game. a community has created MODS so even a totally blind player like myself can enjoy games like mineCraft and Stardew Valley

[@Janelle1991x]

I'm so happy people make modes so you can play. Everyone should be able to game ❤️❤️

[@Sidhe10]

Gem, you are such a wholesome and kind spirited person. I love all of your content but this brings out a side od you we all need

[@Layorgenla]

Yay! I've always imagined Gem playing this game as it fits her so well! I get what you mean about adjusting to the controls of a different platform. I played stardew valley on laptop throughout 2020-21 and then got it on my switch and the change in controls took me a while lol

[@DaleTrevors]

I watched the stream and it's inspired me to buy Stardew Valley for my Switch

[@A_N1ne]

if you have this on steam you can play it using the switch controller, pro or joy-cons. connect the controller via Bluetooth like you would any other Bluetooth device. In the top left conner click "Steam, Settings, Controller, General Controller Settings, Switch Configuration Support." If you are using the joy-cons you will also need to enable "Combine Pair of Joy-con". Also if you want to use the Nintendo button layout (the swapped "A" and "B" buttons) click "Use Nintendo Button Layout" though I think this will effect any other controller you have connected to the pc. Also great stream, looking forward to more in the future.

[@Lichtkrieger13]

really glad that this popped up in my feed

[@gleefullybrutal]

I didn't know she had a second channel until this video popped up 🤯 Now to binge watch everything 😂

[@akosilunel]

i was finally able to play stardew valley because of your gameplay 😂

[@Krampuzz]

I'll tell you this. When it comes to getting perfection, completing the community center, catch all the fish whatever ur aiming for, the stardew wiki is insanely detailed and helps a lot, it even helps with finding loved and liked gifts. and for some of your next playthroughs if u ever decide to play more. 1 day forage all of map especially down with the wizards tower. go sell if you have quite a bit of foregable and splash all ur coins on potatos. next is ez, fish till day 5 then jump into the cave and try to get 45 copper. rest is up to u and you'll have a blast after.(Just remember to not overbuy crops without sprinklers a little later in the game, it gets really awful) forgot to say, after your first batch of potatos are done, buystrawberry seeds at the egg hunt festival. and also forgot to tell u on day 3 u go down to willys shop and want to buy the fiberglass rod. this is veeeeeery messy writing but i hope u can pull something helpful out of it :D

[@eliabeck689]

In answer to why people romance Shane: I went for him because I'm stubborn and contrary, and the more he told me to go away the more I said, 'Not a chance!' Everybody else is so friendly to start, but I just had a stubborn desire to get through to this guy who kept telling me to go away.

[@Allysa-n6z]

Love this game, just bought it on switch!

[@JosephSchmidtfan]

I'm so glad you're giving this a try. Pixlriffs first introduced me to it and it's very cute. Ony annoyance for me is that I just cannot get the hang of the fishing mechanic. Hoping for some hints...

[@solar1073]

if you fish a lot and keep leveling up the bar will get bigger and bigger and fishing gets way easier. also buy the rod upgrades, they make the bar bigger too. :) fishing is super hard at first but it gets better over time. i recommend fishing in the big pond at your farm when you're first starting out too, the fish are easiest to catch there (but you'll also get lots of trash so beware haha)

[@Gemwillowdeer]

Omg I just wanted him o see what else she plays besides Minecraft and other things I've seen her play, btw she us my favourite youtuber and this is one of my favorite games, I haven't watched but I'm exited!

[@djphroop]
