It makes me so happy to see 1 year in stardew instead of 100 days in stardew. I know 100 days gets more views but 1 year is so satisfying haha, I like that it doesn't end halfway through winter

It is a bit more satisfying when it’s a year 😆💜

[@celinnec.valdez9995]

The villagers are probably like "Man that new farmer is so strange, he never left that farm once for a whole year."

[@gwynnartis]

Tbh I feel like this challenge would be a lot more interesting if you had started on the four-corners farm, just because you'd have access to stone and ore deposits, as well as more wild seeds. That, or the hilltop farm since you'd still have access to ores, but also fishing spots

[@Marialla.]

Actually, I've played this challenge on those farms and on the forest farm. Forest was by far the best run. The extra wild seeds is HUGELY important to a good run, but the extra mine supplies honestly didn't benefit me much before the day out when I could buy all I needed from Clint.

[@justvibin9887]

@@Marialla.that is so interesting!! I didn’t even consider that for this challenge, you would have a lot of money at the end, so you could buy everything easily to give you a jumpstart. That’s so cool!!

[@as3609]

Enjoyed watching this, you inspired me to start my own challenge. I modified the rules to be less tedious and allow for a sense of progression. Has been very fun so far and recommend it to anyone who enjoys the game! My rules for it: - Can leave the farm once per season - Permitted but not obligated to attend all festivals - When attending festivals, may not do ANYTHING else outside the farm except arrive at the festival (no collecting forage, checking trash cans, giving gifts, shopping etc) - Night Market Y1 - Not considered a festival - Night Market Y2+ - May attend all 3 days, must leave the farm at 5pm or later each day (usual rules about no foraging, trash, no gifts given outside of the Market etc) - No resetting days (I have broken this twice, ah well, it's my rules dammit!) Progression/Bonus Days: - After reaching Mines Floor 120: 1 day per year allowed (any day of player's choice) to be spent Mining (allows for a Skull Caverns trip once per year, basically) - After reaching 10 Hearts with any villager: 1 day per year allowed (must be a character's birthday, and that character must be given a birthday gift - apart from that its a free day) - After catching all 5 Legendary Fish: 1 day per year allowed (any day of choice) to be spent Fishing (giving gifts etc permitted, but majority of time should be spent fishing) - After unlocking the Movie Theatre: 1 day per year allowed (any day of choice). Must watch a Movie at the Theatre with a friend, apart from that no restrictions I've had a lot of fun with this challenge! I'm into Y4 now, have unlocked all my bonus days, max upgraded House, Barn and Coop, and am one day away from unlocking the Ginger Island Farmhouse and entering a new phase of the challenge!

[@Poxial]

I’m so happy to hear that! 💜

[@DarkMimii]

Your videos always make me happy :D This video reminded me that I wanted to try that challange too! For more money in winter you could stop planting trees in fall and use the space of your farm for foraging Winter Roots and Snow Yams using the pattern for clay farming. Snow Yams sell for quite a bit.

[@Poxial]

That’s a great winter idea! 💜

[@rons3634]

[@user-wd1rq5mb4b]

[@mrmoosedrool9474]

Ive seen other youtubers do this, but somehow you manage to make it that much more entertaining for me! Thanks! (BTW congrats on sponsor, I remeber when 10k was a thing :) )

[@Poxial]

I appreciate that! 💜

[@_T_C_]

Love this!! I'm tempted to try this for myself. Maybe I'll enable monsters spawning on the farm and see how much I can kill with my scythe. Maybe something would drop a weapon or even a prismatic shard if I'm lucky :-)

[@rachelt2415]

You can turn on mob spawns with any farm! If you do it, I would choose four corners + monster spawns. The special weeds are really good for this challenge

[@Poxial]

That’s a good idea! 💜

[@Qardo]

I think Poxial didn't read the fine print of the "Box Dance" he learned. That it doubles as a Rain Dance. Just need to be hairier than a bear to suddenly get rain on back-to-back days (Though the beach farm....I think it rains more often than other maps).

[@CheekieCharlie]

Oh no...the Kevin is starting to spread!

[@blumstein3468]

Oh Lord, Poxial made a 100 days as a hobo series. ... You know what, you do you Poxial. I'm pretty interested in seeing how may hundred days it'll take for you to complete the JoJa Warehouse. 200 or 300 at the maximum, surely? ... Kidding aside, once you unlock the Ginger Islands, mayhaps you would be interested in a season 2 by spending the next hundred days there? It would be pretty novel watching someone progress through the Volcano levels with non-upgraded tools, let alone find a dwarven weapon after years of using a broken sword. Well done and looking forward to the next one, as always!

I just have one single unit of a question. Why didn’t you use the clay digging trick?! So many space on the farm surely would allow some money

[@Poxial]

I honestly never thought about it! And I would have no idea how to do it anyway 😅

[@BJGvideos]

Clay digging trick?

[@stewrat3960]

@@BJGvideos In SDV, a single clay sells for 20g. You can hoe the ground in specific patterns so that the ground will always give you a clay. You can get thousands of clay from this, and so that adds up to a lot of money. It’s normally good for early game, but would have been a great primary source of money here.

[@grandmazambie]

Ah the call me Kevin hermit run challenge, trying to complete it tho is gonna be real hard

[@Marialla.]

Another challenge idea: Sleep through Year One. Or maybe it's Sleep 100 Days? Or maybe just Start in Winter. You can watch TV to get all the recipes, and you can open the door of the coop so your chickens don't starve if you're on Meadowlands farm. You can also pet your dog. If you allow yourself to go outside you can water the dog, pet the chickens, and pick up eggs. But don't plant anything, don't read mail, and don't sell anything. Don't tend the farm at all, except maybe keep a path open between you and the chicken coop, and the dog bowl. And maybe make one chest. Then on Day One of Year Two you can read all the mail, sell all the eggs, and see how much you made from doing basically nothing for a year. Then you can start playing for real, with these differences: - You start playing with more money and farming XP than usual, - Your farm is completely overgrown and needs a lot more work to clear, - Prices at Robin's and Clint's will be higher, - Dialogues at the festivals will be different, because it's year two, - Pierre will be selling all the Year Two seeds, - the big Bulletin Board in town would be open for high-paying jobs, - You know more recipes, so maybe that could make a difference somehow? I'm interested to see whether these extra helps and challenges will balance out, or skew things one way or another. Another twist could be to allow yourself to leave the farm on Winter 15, the first day of the Night Market. Then see if you could get your farm ready for spring in the two weeks you have left in Winter. You could pre-buy spring seeds, or maybe stock up on end-of-year specials at Clint's and Robin's. You could grow some winter forage seeds, which would be a difference from starting your farm with regular crops. You would have access to Secret Notes because you could get the Magnifying Glass cut scene. You probably could get some starter seeds from the Museum before Spring begins. You could buy some Hay from Marnie so your chickens won't be as grumpy. Maybe you could actually start playing on Winter 1, so the poor chickens wouldn't have to starve. Then you could begin the challenge in the slow season of Winter and see what it's like to start playing with no pressure to farm yet. I'm really curious how all these differences would change the pace of progress on the farm. Will you still get four candles at Grampa's Evaluation? Still get the Movie Theater by the end of the year? Befriend the villagers? What other progress can happen at this accelerated pace? I think the challenge should end at Grandpa's Evaluation, and we just see what progress can happen when you don't start farming in Year One.

[@8eewee]

You can fill their water bowl? Oh dear...

[@casa5080]

Yes! This challenge is soOoOo hard; I personally could never. It takes such dedication to do a hermit run, and I just cant muster it. I look forward to a completed Joja membership from you in..... 6 years, i think?

[@ericrollin2331]

So did you decide to do the beach farm because it could possibly provide the most value because of the washed up boxes and other miscellaneous forageables? Is the fishing better there compared to say the forest farm? I mean the foraging there is top tier and I remember that you could get some decent fishing there too (or at least the rare Woodskip).

[@Poxial]

I chose it based on the variation the beach farm provides, that way I can forage and fish. And also because I’ve never played on a beach farm and wanted an excuse to play on it 😅💜

I think your moment talking about the beard was my fave part tbh

[@madmae16]

Lol, I love your commitment to keeping this video entertaining, it must not have been easy, but the scarecrow and the crate dance had me in stitches. I suggest you unlock panning first, but because it will be most useful, but then you can have a whole year of panning with poxial. I've done a little theorizing on this run. Is the day of the year you plan on leaving going to be set in stone, or could you hypothetically leave winter 28 year 1 and return to town spring 3. Something like that might be useful if you wanted to upgrade your axe. Also leaving at a point in time that you can buy seeds from Pierre. Turning foragables into seeds and replanting will give you something to sell. Sell them as seeds for more money. There's a secret cave at the bottom of the map that you can banish Jack to if he's bad

[@Marialla.]

Don't forget to save some produce to put into a seed maker. Reproducing your own seeds could be very useful to you. And with the mushroom cave you can turn common mushrooms into fall seeds too, which sell for a lot!

[@jammy7379]

Ah yes. More fabulous poxial content has arrived

[@firefly8767]

I think I have some Strategies for this challenge if you ever try it again: leaving 1 weed on the farm so that the weeds eventually respawn giving you more mix seeds to plant? another one could be also clearing the grass to sell the hay and makemore space for weeds while leaving 1 clump of grass for regrowth purposes. Also CLAY FARMING (I know it got nerfed and the pattern dosen't work anymore but the clay you do end up getting, would still make you a lot of gold over time. it could have been a goal to get to 20k asap so that you can unlock the cave. if you somehow got caroline to 2 hearts on the shopping days then there are tea sapling oppturnities with the mushroom cave. okay I think that is all the ones i can think of for now.
