Playing Stardew Valley as ConcernedApe Intended

[@therealqicksilver]

I am all in on “how the creator intended” for other games. Love it.

[@KennyFrierson]

Spreadsheet Valley

[@bacon6364]

Love to see you branching out your genres, happy to see where you are going with this. But I still really would like to see the mammoth project that is Elden Ring as Intended!

[@ji_mothy]

sooooooon

[@AbigailMaureenVI]

I feel very seen by this video…I have used spreadsheets to plan my farms. I’m so glad I found your content. I really enjoy your jokes. You’ve been making great videos and it’s nice to see your approach to a different genre.

[@ji_mothy]

Ty Abigail! Sorry I beat you in the egg hunt

[@elijahdubray]

Just finished this. This is your best video and I’ve never even played the game. I hope this gets the attention it deserves even though it’s not souls. Hope you’re well.

[@ji_mothy]

Thank you! I had to be convinced on Stardew at first but there's plenty of "game" to it, I highly recommend! And yes I'm well enough, same to you :)

[@Tripoloskey]

Was contemplating playing through Stardew Valley again which is silly as my backlog is getting out of hand. This video was so thorough that it scratched my itch. Excellent video!

[@garrettcolton5774]

This is super high quality! The cheesy song references, the in-depth processes and explanations - it's fantastic! Don't worry if the algorithm doesnt pick this up and this video doesn't do numbers like the Dark Souls ones, this is for sure just as excellent and well-researched. I'd love to see you play Fallout 3/4 or Oblivion/Skyrim as Todd Howard intended - for as "freeform and open-ended" as those games are, the devs definitely want you to play them a certain way :P

[@AC-hj9tv]

I'm a barbeet girlt 🎶

[@ArninoStorm]

This video shows that the X done as Miyazaki Intended series has legs outside of, well, Miyazaki.

[@JoeDejacque]

Amazing video again man, thanks very much ! Hope you have a lovely holiday period and great new year! PS - please make a Year 2 eventually 😄

[@iamchristina8]

this is the best stardew valley video...PLEASE do year two perfection

[@ji_mothy]

Glad you enjoyed!! It's gonna be a few videos out but I'll definitely revisit stardew!

[@AC-hj9tv]

​@@ji_mothyhell yea!!

[@kritikalkani]

Your work on this channel is absolutely incredible man. I have been binging every video you have made so far for the past few days, and really appreciate the effort you put into every vid w the script, humor, and fresh concepts. Keep it up 🎉

[@TwoSpark55]

I loved this video! While it wasn't the usual type of content the "completing X how the developer intended" is a super neat concept and it could be applied to more than just the Soulsbourne and stardew games. Loved the winter wrap up song as well. congrats on the 10K and have a good new year

[@AC-hj9tv]

Nice Barenaked Ladies reference 😂😂

[@Zegreiart]

This script is the most Millennial thing I've ever had the joy of listening to.

[@david21216]

Super glad to see some other genres on your channel. Dont worry about the numbers the video will spread out to folks that are into stardew eventually im sure. (ykwim, getting the peeps with the algorithm) 👍

[@JimmyRif]

Brilliant video! Engaging throughout, even someone like me who never played much Stardew Valley. Keep up the great work!

[@toadstool1679]

Love the series, love this one too. Absolute joy to watch and I love ur voice too

[@GoodJujuMagician]

This is a great lil extension of your format!

[@awalkinthepark4]

Love watching this! Stardew is so fun

[@mildlyhappyface]

as someone who intentionally plays games inefficiently (like, i make most decisions at random), im really enjoying this series. nice to see how the other half lives

[@GSoulCalibur]

This video was a blast, it's always cool to see what pure efficiency in these types of games looks like

[@donweiss2326]

These style of videos are really fun to watch for me. I really hope that you can get some more success and find more fun videos to make

[@Sad_Mercy]

this is great. i definitely wasnt expecting stardew but it definitely works, so good job all around

[@lordgrisaia]

Great vid as always love your stuff man keep up the great work! Also ifk if you like terraria but I feel like that game could work good with this kind of format. You could like choose a class and the go through the game have the most optimal gear for each boss and try to get the npcs as soon as possible or something idk just a thought. Thanks for reading!

[@eternilly]

i love these videos and i think you just have a great humor and personality! always looking forward to more content :)

[@karadiseart]

ALLONS-Y, MOTHY! The zoom in on Shane dancing lmaooo Thorough and entertaining video!

[@yaboitydus9198]

This concept definitely has legs outside of FromSoft games, so please keep at it. Thanks for the upload, I hope to see more from you :D

[@soupcanoe]

New stardew valley KZbinr just dropped omg love this video :)

[@yoijoe13]

Honestly I just enjoy these videos because they're nice to have on in the background while I'm doing stuff

[@mihaimercenarul7467]

Gross

[@Flokker]

I came back to watch the rest of the video after I ran out of time yesterday. The real tragedy is that even this magnificent video does not grant me the knowledge or strengths to change the game in order for Sandy to be mai waifu. Truly I am cursed to shut myself in on my farm and hollow in chagrin of the unobtainable redhead goddess. Woe is me. (Or I could do the unspeakable and mod my game with the "Looking for love" mod and enter the realm of cardinal sinners. Then so be it. I embrace this branding of mod user with open arms.)

[@maebemaebenot]

Really cool game to apply this format to!

[@homerduc758]

As a completionist I LOVE these videos pls continue

[@dragonx23123]

Hey! Can’t wait to watch the video, but at the start you mentioned that ginger island would only be reachable with a week remaining, but if played decently well you can finish the community center in late fall!

[@maxreef7698]

I love the way you neurotically play games, in my opinion you have a big enough audience that branching out to niche games would be very interesting to see. They’d probably have to go longer as you give context but I’m here for it at least

[@xSimone92x]

Okay now THIS is hype!! 😂 yesss I don't I've ever hit the like a mere 10 seconds into a video. Edit: just wanted to say that while yes I love the ds content you're hilarious and I love your delivery. Plus this concept of the intended method of ____ is really fun. I'll stick around even when the ds content dries up, so just keep going! Don't feel trapped by a niche just because the numbers are fluctuating that's just growth and it isn't always upwards but that doesn't mean it's bad. If you lose the people that only like you for ds content you're still winning because you're growing the audience that just genuinely likes you for you.

[@ji_mothy]

this is a very nice and uplifting comment. Thank you :)

[@cowtuna482]

Love this!! A Baulders Gate as Larian Studios intended would be really cool to see (: (also lots of crossover between soulsborne communities and bg3)

[@moonlight2870]

After year 2, switching to artisan means you don't need iridium truffles anymore, as truffle oil will sell for more, so I would switch to the lumberjack perk aswell so you gather even more wood and hardwood. I know hardwood is not gonna be an issue since you're in the correct farm (forest), but wood is always important, more so than foraging goods in the long run.

[@ashsmith1913]

Great video, keep it up man!

[@Jikkuryuu]

This is a fascinating style of video to watch. Thank you for the hard work that goes into these. I'd love to see Portals of Phareon tackled like this, given its host of interlocking mechanics and time constraints. I love the game more than my adhd can bear and that kind of walkthrough would be _precious._ But youtube would instaban a NSFW game :( The other game that comes to mind is Legend of Mana, which isn't complex enough to warrant this treatment but the difference between normal and planned playthroughs are fascinating. A natural run feels dreamlike, with events popping up at any given moment but often ending partway through a story, only to come back hours later when the details have grown fuzzy. But there's a walkthrough that somehow take the player through each questline in isolation and it feels like a whole new game, with the depth and detail that was always there laid out in the open. A good experience if you have the time for it. I'm probably not a core viewer since I'm not excited by Souls content. I went from the Gold/Silver postgame elegance video to here, and Mass Effect is next on my docket. Do what you want 'cause a pirate is free. You are a pirate!

[@CroMike1]

Loved the genre shift! your completely right, Soulsbourne stuff can only go so far

[@Karrott2cents]

Happy birthday for the ground! I gave Evelyn chocolate cake too!

[@Flokker]

Cant wait for the Kings Field as From Soft intended. Edit: I love this equally as your souls videos. Youve got the formula down. This is on the same level of insane quality as your other videos.

[@fish4837]

I love this sort of conent. Please do more of this formula.

[@terretsforever]

Hope to see a sequel to this next year

[@westfarr4716]

Absolutely in love with all these videos

[@jordaneats7566]

Aside from my sanity dying due to how closely zoomed in the game is, great vid overall!

[@ji_mothy]

Ty! Had some weirdness with that, my options were gigantic ultra widescreen to match my monitor, or windowed which only had this small setting selectable :/ figured at least my character would be visible to people!

[@mitch4660]

Really enjoyed the shift, the souls videos are great and I think the more you branch out with these types of games the better you will be

[@Mickeystrawberry]

Love the content in general. Souls related or not. Congrats on 10K!!!

[@CoffeeWalrus]

A Flaming Lips reference deserves an upvote

[@agustinsanchez3679]

This is the video I didn't know I needed

[@garrettcrouch326]

Hey dude this awesome keep up the awesome work

[@HxH-to1xh]

You know I dreamed of making content on KZbin, but I didn't make an actual step and make that dream come true But after watching this video, it made me realise I can't expect to have a great channel and make a huge impact with it, but I can for sure make something I can have fun with and be proud of So, thanks to you, I will start my own channel this year, but I have to buy a new pc😅

[@stevenlennie]

Graveyard Keeper would be an ideal game to add to this series.

[@austindahu]

What game produces this sentence: "I had to decline a coconut for [her] birthday, because the price was wrong for someone saving up for strawberries."

[@timothybelleci3554]

I like these kinds of videos. Id love to see more as intended videos

[@timothybelleci3554]

I also love the long form content

[@angelskysilver5219]

I do have to say with the traveling cart you can mostly ignore animals I've completed the community center year 1 twice now once in coop and once alone and neither time did I bother with anything other than chickens

[@ChrisGagner]

I respect that you completed this run on hard mode. (i.e. zoomed in)

[@qreneau]

Hey mothy, I'm a little behind the curve and am only just now finding your channel/going through your vids. Really like all your content and presentation style. Hope this comment finds you well, keep up the good work wherever you are! -Q

[@daphnedherbert]

love this game and you rock

[@jimbo_13]

I've only ever completed a few hours in Stardew so I was lost for about 75% of this video... But I'm all for non-FromSoft content just the same! More Mothy in 2024!

[@somejabroni51]

I think this is actually even better than the dark souls ones LOL what a great idea

[@hngamer4823]

Did you stream this run? I literally wanna see the micro management first hand, so can i find this full game playthrough somehwere??????

[@ji_mothy]

I couldn't stream it 😭 I literally spent as much time muttering to myself planning the next day as I did playing each day

[@kadebird1099]

Flaming lips reference garnered you an instant sub 👏🏻

[@karenlangley5912]

This is great. Continue please.😊

[@phillipmarathakis5703]

This is great, though I'd wonder if spending energy fishing for money and using that to buy wood off Robin would be efficientier

[@ji_mothy]

I wonder! At 10g a pop, you're looking at "7k" for a coop up from 4k. The 300 wood is idk, 18 trees? Overall I think it would come out similar. And then you may as well cut trees yourself for the Foraging levels, which do have a positive cash value due to higher sell prices.

[@YSchepers]

i really like this series

[@Skizzaable]

i love this series

[@hoodiegal]

I did not expect a My Little Pony reference, it feels like my teen years just hit me from behind with a steel chair xD

[@Never_Raines]

Lol you had fun making this, now lets turn more open world games into their true linear experience! I bet Morrowind would be fun, *wink wink*

[@odeegrotsniffer4166]

Love the channel

[@gravelorddd]

come for the playthroughs, stay for the puns. Keep it up! ❤

[@Barbeque_Sauce_1234]

Haven't played for a while, but the mushroom cave might be better because the income from that can help out with buying fruit cave fruits from the cart. Year 1 Legend should still be possible with the help of Trout Soup, though I don't know if you could level Fishing in time while doing all the other stuff.

[@Mae-Muki]

[@shanicez9494]

I'd happily watch year 2.

[@unnamedmuffin]

1:03:38 Nice MLP reference! ^_^

[@onibarubary]

Dammit, I literally just finished playing through Dark Souls 3 using your video as guide, now I gotta do this too? Fine fine... Edit: Wait was that a Camp Lo reference?

[@NocturnalNick]

would love a 100% follow up

[@gregbeauclair7608]

I think it would be cool for you to continue this playthrough to the 100% in year 2+

[@Ryxbar]

Keep doing you, homie. Do whatever game you like with this scripting and narration style and it'll go far

[@AbigatorM]

my OCD and my german half are pleased.

[@kryzethx]

0:20 Funnily enough, I started watching because of your Pokemon videos, and would probably never click on your Dark Souls videos lmao

[@gigits2798]

Validation for my overthinking and ALL the hours I've put into fishing in this game.

[@moonlight2870]

Sex kinda matters, as it changes your gifts in the mailbox. Men get cookies and a pink cake, women get 500 gold and a bunch of rocks. Not sure how much that matters outside of speedruns tho

[@ji_mothy]

Great point. Marnie loves are rough year 1, feel like an early cake would help a lot

[@ColtonGamingTV]

Should have extended this to year 2 so you could have done true perfection by the end of year 2.

[@Knytewish]

How are you watering all tiles without moving
