[@salmence100]

Ohhhh I did skip over the fixes section, that's pretty big

[@the_rabidsquirel]

Another big one, "Fixed exploit where you could keep temporary items like Qi Fruit by selling them to Pierre and buying them back later." I believe that was finally the last way to preserve them gone, so now you have to do the Qi fruit quest "legit" each time. Or, "Fixed tree stumps dropping seeds like full-grown trees." I never used it cause I didn't like leaving stumps around, but apparently a lot of people made use of this. Also, "Fixed geode crusher “off-by-one” bug/exploit." So even more reason to use the geode crusher now that it doesn't cost coal, and you can't use it after Clint to dupe a prismatic shard or something.

Too many things to type out read it yourself 32:29-ish Less random character randomisation, so basically you won't get farmer/goth clothing duos anymore, pans no longer give the same thing if you pan the exact same spot twice(rip speedrunners), and finally about page no longer hides the version number when there's a tool tip 32:33-ish Map screen no longer closes if you click on an Area Of Interest(tm) 32:35-ish He said how lewis goes to the library on winter sundays now, but he edited out maru and penny now hanging out on summer sundays, maru tinkering on summer mondays, and the biggest piece of it all: If you reach six hearts with an npoc they will no longer visit their rival love interest.

[@melaniescribbles]

Not gonna lie, the whole 'not being able to pick up rugs if there's stuff on them' fix is going to be an absolute lifesaver in my game. In my game, that's actually a common problem in the bedroom area of the farmhouse; there's this big purple rug that has a bed placed on it, 2 plushies, and a geode statue. Trust me, all of that stuff was an absolute pain in the rear to have to place again if I misclicked and accidentally picked that thing up. And that would happen like twice in the span of 3 in-game days 😵

[@Cyrus_T_Laserpunch]

I love those updates that add features that were popular mods. Having these things added as actual official features is great because it not only means we need fewer mods on our list, but it also means less chance for mod conflicts, the feature updates with the game, and, of course, vanilla players can join the fun with them as official features. Most people in any game, even on PC, don't use mods.

@@salmence100 I just can't get over that it happens at *six hearts*. I wouldn't love it if it happened after the bouquet for exactly the reason you mentioned: I like LIs having their own lives because my farmer certainly does. But with a bouquet, it would at least require you to do a deliberate action to trigger changes. The game intentionally encourages befriending all villagers, and now playing the game as intended causes two independent friendships to see each other less. Doesn't matter if you aren't doing anything whatsoever romantically at all. Still happens. It's such a bizarre choice.

The blue of the joja furniture burns my eyes.

I waited to watch this until I’d put a few dozen hours into my new farm, and I’m so glad! I loved discovering (most) things on my own, but i doubly love seeing your reactions to the patch notes, especially the worm bin changes! 😅

[@colonelbbq]

one thing that i did not see in the patch notes is that you can now buy nautilus shells from the travelling merchant.

[@EternalGamingNet]

Great video! Thank you for the information and the gentle "told you so" 😂🎉.

[@PSReldus]

Town trees being 'tree objects' probably means they get to count as 'old trees' eventually and provide moss? And I guess sap-able?

[@LalaRojas-jd5rc]

I do wish that we got another backpack upgrade I feel like the inventory still isn't enough for me 😅

[@unnaturalredhead1559]

13:56 having played it- it basically just means that the trees go transparent when you go behind them, I’m pretty sure

[@vinnm4516]

Okay, I knew this update was going to be big, but WHOA.

[@Ariamaki]

The daily mushroom cave thing was NOT already removed in 1.5.3: It's still been in the game and was working that way as of last week, I've had an active cave farm using it.

[@aidenhackett2849]

To be fair about the barn doors, it only says they'll gain friendship, not lose it if you leave them open. It just helps get them up to max hearts and keep them there

[@aidenhackett2849]

Also, the fibre for the blessing statue seems painful until you get a green rain day, which with optimal buff and routing will grant you loads, I got 700+ without speed buffs or planned routes

[@FoamBot]

I CANNOT WAIT for this to hit the switch eeeeeeeeeeee!! ❤

[@alexiskashner8113]

Rip tea saplings you were there for me when no one else was.

[@DarkMirria1]

?

[@marcosdheleno]

they are still worth selling, even if they had their price cut in half.

[@alexiskashner8113]

@@marcosdheleno oh totally i still sold a good amount in early game just didn’t prioritize foraging to make seeds like i usually would have.

[@JakeRaymond7]

Ape really outdid himself. What a great sendoff for the game

[@youtubeforkidz1394]

Amazing! Gunna be starting a new save. I love this game. Makes me happy every time I play. So peaceful.

[@runawayfaeIX]

Your face at 23:48 😂 We were all thinking it, anyway! All hail Salmence, Savior of the Worm Bin!

[@cynthiablackthorn]

baby toss now has a chance to crit is amazing and i hope the animation for that is the baby just flying higher

[@CalamityCannon]

This one change has consumed my thoughts. Who even asked for it? Yeet The Baby had an RNG element?

[@cheesymarshmellows]

I love this video, didnt wanna read everything, im listening while eatting lol thanks!

[@epluribusunum6622]

River land farm gets slept on. If you use the mushroom log and only want it to affect certain trees that would be perfect for one of the smaller islands.

[@OceanStateMadness]

Comparison for the roofs that were updated! lmao This update adds so much QoL, and it makes me want to play even more! I was already getting the itch a while ago but waited 😂

[@houseblaster5656]

A big change in the "fixes" section: the "off-by-one" glitch with geode crushers has been fixed.

[@kendrixkieth6669]

BEEN WAITING FOR YOUR VID ABOUT 1.6 AND YEY IT FINALLY ARRIVED! ALWAYS LOVE YOUR STARDEW CONTENT!

[@hoodiesticks]

Pepperidge Farm remembers when this was a "small patch" that would "only affect modders" and would have "no significant content additions"

[@indigoenergygamer4350]

To answer your question, I do believe you did say something on the topic of the geode crusher. I think the exact quote was something like, "Most people value their coal more, so they still go to Clint" or something like that.

[@FrostyTheDankman]

Haley would absolutely keep Alex on the backburner and vice versa, that's the only change I reeeally don't like. For all the affected NPCs, it just seems sad they would lose those friendships.
