1 mistake we will never forget, You didn’t put a scarecrow down and that day he lost his red cabbage and Ancient fruit… “If it weren’t for those crows.”
I had almost blocked this out of my memeory
Wow
@@Waligug who'd wanna remember that? Haha I have actually done it before with my bean plant. Planted the bean plant and when I went to check it, it was gone. I hadn't even noticed until than, I was so mad. I'd actually forgotten about this until right now. 🤣
Gotta say, I should fish more 😅 being honest I have bought a couple fish from the traveling merchant for the community center
@@Waligug You will never be allowed to forget that :P
My first time playing stardew, I wanted to avoid reading the wiki to have a more authentic experience because it made me nostalgic of my first days in minecraft. So without knowing what it was, I put all my parsnip seeds in the shipping bin thinking it was a chest.
Lol I thought it was a chest too, didn’t put the seeds in tho
i've done that. and i threw away a lot of stuff on accident haha
lol its impossible to play stardew valley without using the wiki
@@ward_IV found that out the hard way😅
I did that too!
one time I named my farm "farmy farm" and it made me giggle when npcs would say "farmy farm farm"
I called mine “Itsa Farm”
Like… it’s a farm. Get it? 😂
farmy farm farm is so cute actually lmfao
Mines being named farm farm 🤣🤣
@@prettygirlrock1106mine is always farm farm too lmao
@@ihaventaname2686 😭
*Don't sell everything you find.
Me, a hoarder: *smiles like the grinch*
I have chests just filled with things I've found, ever since I almost couldn't figured out how to get clay, and then figured out how to, I did not want to rexperience that frusturation so I hoard and save stuff.
Yes TT I have all my chests super organised and color coded, but i am for sure a hoarder.
@@cidercake4373 my experience exactly 😪
Same, and it wasn’t even for future quests, I just like hoarding stuff in any game lol.
Same! I am such a resource hoarder. When people say, "keep at least one of every item," I'm way ahead of you there my friend! 😁
I think many people are missing the real point of the game, which is just enjoying. It's literally endless, it never ends and if you miss anything, your game will be longer but that's actually the point. It's better than finishing everything and getting tired of it really fast. Instead, try to enjoy it, find the spouse you like, mine and die, get beautiful crops, make some kids, and just don't rush it. Once you get tired of it, it's really hard to find that magical feeling of always having something to do.
This hits 🥺💖
But also kinda sucks when you sleep through an event you need so you gotta sleep through the whole year to get back to it, then you sleep through it again…
@@somewhatuninterested8989 I think is part of the game message, like "chill out, it’s not the end of the world, you’ll get there" kinda stuff
That's the point of ALL games that people seem to be missing out on!
@@somewhatuninterested8989 What the hell are you playing the game for if that's all your doing?!
Don't sleep on fishing! Many portions of the game is gated by tools, quests, or just time, when the game starts - you are never going to have as much time on your hands to get fishing as you will at the start - which is a great thing, because fishing is a very good way of getting money in your hands immediately, which will help you get your farm off the ground!
me in my current co-op server: FISHING FISHING FISHING
Yes, I'm always fishing on my first spring
If I could learn it, I would fish. But I don't fucking understand how to.
i’ve made 100k my first year because i devoted most of my time into fishing
@@LucyMusic1999 It's very simple. Hold left click near a body of water and try to fill up the green bar as mush as possible (perfect being a note if you succeed). Sooner or later, you'll hear wobbling sound, left click. The minigame begins where you just try to highlight the fish with your green bar as much as possible. There ya go. One more tip, if you're really having trouble, invest in training rod at Willie's it's cheap and it'll temporarily boost your fishing level to 5 meaning your green bar is MUCH bigger, thus making it much easier. There is one drawback to this tho, but I forgot what it was.
Marrying Haley is not a mistake, Great character development, cooks for me at least 2-3 times a week, Does farm tasks 1-2 times a week, Overall great wife 10/10
Yeah love being married in game and they are outside. "I helped with watering the crops."
Me: "Um honey, it's automatic with the sprinklers."
@@duanegiddings4981 maybe she thinks she’s the one doing it
@@dominicesquivel3901 Maybe she does turn on the sprinkler system. Which means I was before I got maried.
Facts
I married Elliott, Haley and Elliott are definitely the best spouses imo, Elliott makes me coffee every other day, (sometimes 3 days in a row), and feeds the animals or waters the crops at least 1-2 times a week. During the winter he fed the animals like every other day which was really helpful when I didn't have an auto feeder.
Speaking of chests: Put a chest RIGHT OUTSIDE THE MINES!!
That way you can go longer without buying a backpack and can save up for strawberries.
It's always a good idea to put a chest there, even with the max inventory size. Also furnaces so they can smelt while you mine👍🏼
If you fish early it is super easy to buy a backpack upgrade, 1-2 upgraded tools, rare seeds from the merchant, and more strawberries than you can reasonably water that early in the game.
Don't mine until summer or fall. Quite simple
@@megacaptcha5894 Why on earth would you want to go without sprinklers past spring?
@@bluesonicstreak7317 i upgraded my water can to copper and grinded with my gf every morning, i wanted to speedrun as much as i can while still being chill and at year 2 now we got almost full ginger island
My dumbest mistake was shipping the 1 ostrich egg you get from the journal scrap on ginger island. It took me over 100 more hours of playtime to get another one from a chest in the volcano mines so i could finally get ostriches. Sebastian had to raise the kids alone that year....
400+ hours in stardew. 50+ hours on my Riverland farm… and I’ve just realised you can chop down the bushes in the middle of the farm. Here I was, trying to design my farm around these random bushes 🤦🏻♀️
What? How?? I'm in the forest farm and I haven't been able to😅
@@Habibigigi it’s been a while since I played, but using an upgraded axe did it for me! I can’t remember what level upgrade it was, but have a go once you upgrade your axe each time. It makes organising the farm so much better!
getting rid of them makes decorating much easier! but keep in mind that they don't grow back (at least they never did for me), just something to remember in case u want to keep just 1 or 2 as decorations themselves 🌱
Same thing happens irl. One day you're like "Why am I keeping these ugly bushes around?!"
Recently started playing with my wife.. she was the one in a billion that didn't know about the elevator in the mine and even yelled, "How the %@#$ did you get to floor 20?!"
Then I showed her the elevator..😅
I put farm in the name of my farm and had to restart a few days in after seeing my farm was "farm farm". 🤦♂️
Me too lol
but I got to level 30 without it
Same I did not notice the elevator until 20 floors in 😭
was playing with a friend a while back, we named the farm "farm" so it came out as farm farm. it has a nice ring to it yk?
Oh yes im not the only one with the name Farm Farm
I also did farm farm
Alright I have NEVER seen anyone mention this mistake but in early game, I feel like this is important! When you first start the game, you might notice scything takes no energy. I have cut EVERYTHING scythe-able on my farm BEFORE I got a silo. Meaning, I had to wait for the grass to spawn back to get hay or I had to spend money on hay from Marnie. It would have been so much better had I *not* cut the grass. Like. Go ahead, cut the weeds for fiber, but don't cut the grass (or at least all of it...)
YES! WAIT FOR THE SILO
Absolutely true. I got rid of all the grass before I realized it was good for farm animals.
Oh, here’s another noob mistake. I didn’t know that tiny door on the coop opened to let your animals outside to eat grass. I just fed them hay the entire time until I accidentally opened it during the winter.
yes!!! amazing tip!!! it also helps when you get farm animals because they can eat the grass
EXACTLY WHAT I DID
Wait for the silo AND a barn/coop. Fill the silo, empty it from the hopper, cut more grass, fill the silo, empty, cut, fill, etc!
"don't chop down all your trees"
The trees all around the map automatically replant, so in a pinch you can clearcut the forest to the south.
Still need wood if you clear the forest.
just put all the seeds you get into a chest then you can have emergency seeeds when you need trees.
"Don't drop down all your trees"well over here I don't chop any of my trees so now I have just a forest
@@duanegiddings4981 correct. luckily I noticed my error before it got too scarce and just put down some trees to grow. now I'm fully clearing out my farm because I hate them and they get in the way of planning where to put buildings. so I just planted a bunch for tappers in the railroad and will find another area for wood gathering in another area soon.
During my first play through I named my farm “twin pines farm” but I somehow didn’t realize part of the word “farm” got cut off as well as farm already being included in the name by default so my farm ended up being named “twin pines fa farm”
Thats fa fabulous
Your character had a stutter when registering the name.
Fa actually means tree in Hungarian so it was still kinda on theme with the pines. :)
Is there a character limit to farm names or did you make a mistake? I swear I’ve seen longer farm names than that..
literally that's what happened to me. i names mine "maple leaf farm" and now whenever people use it in dialogue, it just says *maple leaf f farm* it's wonderful
"You can find Dino Eggs relatively easily."
I have killed like 30 Pepper Rexes and went on Prehistoric Floors on the luckiest days WITH the luck buffs from both the Lucky Ring and the Spicy Eel.. I never got one dino egg. And the first dino egg I got was from a fucking artifact spot.
Only recently have I actually gotten an abundance of Dino eggs. In one save I’ve fished over 10 in one season. 😅
I found a dino egg in the ground while foraging near my house
it could be that you didnt have a spot in your barn. the moment i sold some pigs and went to 20+ in skull cavern, i got one!
@@HeyRae same!
Bro I got like two dinosaur eggs from artifact spots
9:20 When cooking, items are always consumed in order, from bottom right in your inventory to top left. So if you are making sashimi, make sure the fish you don’t want to consume is place on a top left slot and the fish you do want to consume is placed in a later slot.
The same logic applies to anything that is consumed in a recipe.
This is how I lost my very first pufferfish! lol
Wow this is very helpful information actually. Thank you!!
i typically just put anything i dont want to accidentally cook in a chest and then cook from my fridge/inventory
It's not a big mistake but on my first game I would break every single rocks on a mine level before going down to the next one, this made going down so slow that I was not able to craft quality sprinkler during the first year. On the plus side, rocks aren't a resource I ran out of back then.
Another mistake is not fishing because it's too hard. Fishing is the biggest money maker early on. One of the fist stardew videos I watched on youtube helped me a lot: it suggested starting a game just to learn fishing, i.e. don't do anything but fish until it's not hard anymore then delete that game, don't plant, don't forage, just fish.
thats some hardcore dedication to the fishing grind
I'm really having trouble understanding why so many people are having problems with fishing. Seems pretty easy to me from the start. Some fish are hard ofcourse, but I could for example pretty much rank fishing level 3-4 in a game week max where I could pretty much perfectly catch low level fish like sardines and anchovies all the time. Legendary fish, super cucumber, and some other rare ones like octopus can be a pain in the rear tho.. but there are buffs for that (seafoam pudding ftw)
@@andrejz8954 do you okay on console or PC? I find fishing SO hard. I can get to the bottom of the local mine by start of fall year 1 but have never caught all the fish after 300hrs of gameplay.
@@andrejz8954 Agree. For me it's really easy except for rare and damn fast fish. I recently tried to catch a lava eel... *This* is hard
@@andrejz8954 I don't understand it either. I started playing a week ago (I'm on pc) and fishing was immediately easy and profitable. My fishing skill was maxed before the end of spring, while the rest of my skills are still level 2 or 3. I honestly haven't even been farming because selling fish is more profitable.
I LOVE how Linus likes cheap things, like spring onions and wild horseradish. Sure, it's just a like, not a love, but he's EASY and CHEAP to befriend.
Leah also likes cheap thing, including MOST forage.
The following people LIKE Salmonberry:
Demetrius
Jodi
Kent
Leah
Linus
Pam
Robin
Sandy
Shane.
Add Elliott and Harvey to that list for Blackberries.
This makes it SO EASY and CHEAP to befriend 8-10 villagers, for Grampa's Test. Just make sure you have 4 Forage level by the 15th of spring, and get all the salmonberries, for wonderful, stackable, food and gifts, and level 8 Forage level by the 8th of Fall, for the blackberries. At level 4, you get double berries and at level 8, you get triple berries.
And if you're at level 10, and you eat a survival burger, or pancakes, and then go foraging, for as long as the +2 buff lasts, you'll be getting FOUR berries per bush! And if you are a Botanist, that is FOUR IRIDIUM GIFTS PER BUSH! Even on a bad luck day, at four per bush, you're likely to break 100 and on a good luck day, at four per bush, you may even get 200! Per day! For FOUR DAYS!
I almost ALWAYS put everything else on the backburner during berry season. The berries are stackable FOOD and GIFTS, for a targeted handful of villagers. They're GREAT for in the mines, especially if you have Botanist, and they're iridium.
Also, turn those cheap salmonberries into jelly, and EVERYONE BUT SEBASTIAN will like them. Seriously, a stackable gift that applies to all but ONE villager? Gifting is SO EASY. Yes, it's a like, not a love, but that still gives you a decent bonus to friendship. And you can do SO MANY of them, quickly. Jellies take 2-3 days to make in a preserves barrel. Fill a shed or barn with preserves barrels, and use them to make expensive preserves (jellies, pickles, or even CAVIAR, if you have the sturgeon fish ponds) most of the year, but in berry season, you just pop those berries into the preserves jars, and have a big rush of jellies for friendshipping.
Salmonberry jelly sells for 15 g (or more, if you have the right abilities, such as the Bear's Knowledge and Artisan), so it's no big deal to give away something so cheap.
By the time I'm able to make preserves barrels, I'm easily getting better stackable food for the mines, so it's time to use all my left-over berries for jellies and gifts.
Also, give CAROLINE Daffodils, throughout spring, and by the last week, you should be able to get into her sun room for one free tea leaf per day (except Wednesday), plus the ability to craft tea saplings, which make GREAT permanent fencing, and a passive income the last week of spring, summer, and fall. And TEA is LOVED by Caroline and Lewis, and LIKED by everyone else, except for Jas and Vincent, and takes only 3 hours to make in a keg! Which means that, if you start building your fencing on the first of summer (or last of spring), you can have a nicely-defined farm, and EASY gifts for almost everyone, by the end of summer. If you plant those 30 spring seeds, and replant throughout the season, then by the end of spring, you'll have enough wild seeds to make LOTS of tea saplings, for LOTS of fencing, and LOTS of tea gifts! True, tea sells for 100 g, instead of 15, but it's still a pretty fast and easy and cheap gift.
And don't forget COFFEE! Another cheap and easy (and FAST to brew!) gift, IF you start out early in spring. I like to save my coffee beans from the coal sprites, and then plant them in my greenhouse, as soon as possible. Just a few will do the trick. Then, you save up the coffee beans you harvest in your greenhouse, and plant them, on day 1 of Spring, Year 2, so that you have a big coffee harvest, every few days. It takes quite a few beans to make coffee, but if you plant a large amount of the plants on the first day of spring, they'll give you coffee beans all through spring AND summer, every other day! It's surprisingly fast. And coffee is SUPER useful, as well as being a stackable gift for MOST villagers. Again, everyone but the children likes coffee. And Harvey LOVES it.
The community center really drives the gameplay for me. There IS stuff to do after it’s completed, but for me personally my playthroughs always lose a little steam once it’s completed
I think that's less true since the updates. Ginger Island is huge. But I get what you mean for sure
On my first playthrough I didn't even realise that the community centre existed until second year. This is because I both didn't level fishing or level relationships in the first year. My entire thought process was the growing of my farm. I only went into town on the first day of the season to buy crops and then spent the rest of my time watering those crops and taking the back way to the mines. As such I didn't take note of the existence of the community centre.
Exactly! I didn’t even start working on the community center or start forming relationships until half way through year two on my first play thorough. I just took my time exploring and I’m so glad I did. 🥰
I always hear about people not knowing you can use the shipping bin but I was totally the opposite, it shocked me that I could sell to Pierre lol.
this is me! maybe i played too much harvest moon as a kid lol
How do you sell to Pierre?
It amazes me that people don't know you can use the shipping bin. You're told about it by the mayor right when you show up to the farm. I guess they just don't read and skip past it all. *shrug*
11:30 For mistake 20: you can chop every trees in your farm: in cindersap forest and backwoods there are 60+ trees that regrow by themselves (~24 days to regrow and gives ~1260 wood, so it's 1260 wood every 24 days)
Yes, but you have to learn the farm to get those trees, so it takes more time. Also 1200 wood goes fast when you're making lots of preserve jars or chests or the like. Also if you keep some stumps around your farm you can spend a tiny amount of energy to how up the seeds to make field snacks, so early on if you leave an okay, pine, and maple stump close together you now have a reliable source of easy energy and seeds to plant trees you can tap.
It is still a really, really good idea to not completely clear your farm of trees/stumps too early.
a mistake I made while first playing the game was that I didn't know that you could fill your watering can from any water source. So when I got the letter from Robin about the well, I thought I needed to have it to refill my watering can. So my first spring ever I barely made any money and my parsnips took forever because I didn't know I could refill my watering can.
Lmao
oh my...
Upgrade your house to get the kitchen can refill in the sink.
@@duanegiddings4981 thats also a stupid idea. The basic farm has a small pond right outside your door
@@Pat315 I was hust saying it was an option to use. I didn't say anyone has to do it. Or you forget to refill once you are ddone watering to other things. The sink can be used while inside.
I honestly burnt myself out by focusing so hard on min maxing 😭 Now I’m thinking of starting over and letting myself relax. ty for the video and the inspo!!!
I just take it slow and enjoy the game. I don't worry about romance or anything. I just talk to ppl when I see them and try to give gifts on birthdays. Although I may have made myself a chart of birthdays and what the best gifts for each person is (with several options in case I don't have one of them). For example, Leah loves goat cheese, salad, and wine - early on, I won't have goats, but I can afford to buy a salad from the salon to give it to her on her birthday.
I always set up a "gifts" chest at some point which I keep with stacks of 5-10 of loved gifts for every character. Except Pierre. Pierre gets dandelions or daffodils (both are liked) and he'll just have to deal with it.
I highly recommend it. SDV is supposed to be a fun, relaxing game. Enjoy it. If you find you're not enjoying it, you're not playing it right for you.
My first priority is to always marry Alex (last time I managed it by Year 1 Summer 20). Not the most lucrative thing to sink all my effort into, but the one that makes me the happiest.
Haley is a FANTASTIC wife and mom. I always used to marry Abigail for the beautiful dialog, but really she talks a lot about being sweaty and stuff, too. I feel way more loved by Haley. She brings a real joy to the farm house. Also Elliott. He was a huge surprise. Possibly even better than Haley, but it's a real toss-up. Those are my 100% favorite spouses.
Well youd know abigail loves you because she talks about her sweaty grossness, thats something someone really comfortable would do
I love harvey so much, hes a very sweet man and he tells me how much he loves me a lot ❤ i also love shane. He has a good character arc (no you dont FIX him. Hes the one who takes initiative to get help and you support him) and hes just really funny. I like his dialogue a lot. A lot of people expected a huge 180 with his personality, but at the end of the day hes still shane.
I fell in love with Elliott as soon as I met him and I'm at my year 8 still with him. Made another save trying to marry someone else just to see how they are (because in no way I'll divorce Elliott) but somehow I know I'll marry him again
@@ineedabetterusername4803 In every single game I always end marrying Shane 😅
Haley was really a surprise. First you just know her superficial side, but that is very misleading. She is, later when you know her better, a very kind and lovely girl and a really good wife and mother. She is definitely one of my favorite couple partner of the girls. Elliot and Harvey were a surprise too.
The problem with playing both Stardew Valley and Animal Crossing is that the shipping bin in AC only gives you 75% of the item's value. So it's easy to forget sometimes.
i never considered this a concern only because i also played harvest moon and story of seasons which both use a shipping been as a way to sell crops plus dialog usually tells you where to sell it
Truth
Forget what? That it doesn’t give 75% ? I don’t get it.
@@316nicolez in animal crossing you sell at nooks cranny if you go directly too them they sell it for the regular full sell value of the item but in the case of the store is closed and you want to sell it there is a shopping bin in front of the store you can put the items in and they will send you the money via mail but you will only recieve 75% of what you would of gotten selling it directly
SDVs shipping bin gives full value
During my first playthrough it took me a while to notice the elevator and I really didn't know how I was going to ever reach floor 40. It also took me a while to realize I could just restart days. I lost a lot of valuable stuff in the mines and if I had known I could restart the days I definitely would have.
I did the same thing! the first time I went to the mines the elevator was out of order so I assumed I would need to do something to unlock it and didnt check it again until my boyfriend noticed I wasnt using it lol
I didn't know I had to complete a day for it save. One time, I was having a really productive and lucky day but decided to quit in the middle of the day cause I was playing Stardew for a long time. I was shocked that I had to start over and wasn't able to repeat my success
I didn't realise it was a ladder and couldn't understand how people were getting into the mine. Lol I thought it was a random bump
Another tip is to not sleep on using the statue of uncertainty. It’s 10,000 gold and it resets the perks of one of your skills. That really isn’t much money in the late game and using it to increase profits is fairly easy. I personally use the tiller profession for spring, summer, and fall to grow more crops then switch it to artisan in the winter to sell the artisan goods I stashed away during the year.
Waligug you’ve grown so much thank you for existing
Congrats on the iridium bar! Thanks for the support 😊
My biggest mistake with my first play through was that I didn’t notice you could scroll through the farm structures at robins shop. I had 3 basic coops and nothing else. I was waiting to unlock something that would allow me to get better animals.
I did this too!!!
Idc what anyone says I will forever remain a Haley supporter, she gets character development u gotta trust the process
thats kinda why i like her. She actually changes for the better and becomes genuinely sweet.
The others kinda stay the same. Though i will admit my first playthrough i went after Penny both because redhead but also "i want to rescue her from that trailerpark dump..." lol....
@@vineheart01 shane changes for the better too!
i can't stand seeing haley hate comments ,, who doesn't like mean characters who wind up turning out to be really sweet and fun people? haley and shane are brilliant ;; it's way more interesting to see a character grow
@@hostiliteaa Yeah, he gets better but his hygiene and appearance are still abysmal.
Like, if you want to wear old clothes, that's fine, but do you have to constantly track mud into the house?
Haley is best girl and nobody can change my mind.
If Abigail had gone full badass monster slayer instead of "I'm sad that I killed a soulless husk that exists to cause pain and suffering", you might've been able to change my mind.
i’m in year 1 of stardew (quite literally a day away from y2) and i’ve been doing the animal bundle in CC purely from buying from that traveling cart 😂 i do not have the funds for animals nor the patience to wait
Pro tip: When it comes to gifting, EVERY SINGLE VILLAGER has at least one relatively inexpensive item on their Loved and/or Liked list. At one point I actually made a spreadsheet containing all the villagers' cheapest Loved and Liked gifts, and it helped me a great deal. What I discovered is most effective is:
Flowers (except Dandelion and Poppy): Jas, Vincent
Coffee: Abigail, Haley, & Sam
Parsnips: Literally everyone else (gold or iridium quality works best)
If you don't mind taking your time to get everyone to max levels, just stockpile flowers, coffees, and parsnips and hand them to the relevant villager on their birthday, three years running. You'll use up less storage space, have less money/loss, and have a really easy time finding all of the gifts you need. BIG time-saver, all around.
also Leah and Linus is probably the easiest people to please and hence why my first spouse was Leah even tho my first love was penny. just give her the forage flower you find like daffodil. her fav food is salad literally sold in the saloon, and when you get goats, got cheese. so easy and inexpensive at all stages. heck I think she even likes milk and eggs too.
haley also likes flowers and harvey likes coffee!
I don't know why, but it took me like three seasons on my first save to realize that the shipping bin prices are equal to the prices in the shops... I just assumed that easy way to sell = less money and just rolled with it. Stupidest Stardew mistake I've made!
I DID THE SAME THING! I didn't know the shipping container was the same as selling at Pierres so that's what I did.
Wait what????? I did not know this 🥲
mistake 12 has a mistake... the animal bundle only needs 5 items. You can complete the the animal bundle which you would only need a lvl 2 coop and a lvl 2 barn. I usually get 3 chickens and a duck hoping for a brown and white egg laying chicken to get those 2 large eggs and the duck egg. I get the Goat milk and the regular large milk from cows and complete the animal bundle. The Artisan bundle only needs 6 items and the cheeses (goat and regular) can be crafted from the lvl 2 barn, other items I use for this bundle are the jelly, honey and the cloth which I can obtain by recycling soggy newspaper (10% chance of cloth 90% change of making torches). The last item I use is a fruit which you can get from the traveling merchant, fruit bats in the cave or planting a tree sapling.
When you buy the chickens you can, before you click the coop, see if it is a white or brown chicken you get. If the second one is the same colour then just cancel and try again until you get the colour you want.
You can finish the bundle with a fully upgraded coop and a barn with only cows in it. Chickens, ducks, rabbits and cows will give you the 5 items faster and cheaper. Waiting for the goats to give you large milk can be a pain. ;)
I just wait traveling merchant sell those item,for large egg & large milk i can handle it
When I first started playing, I thought the shipping bin was just for trash. So the first two seasons of my first play through, I would run everything I intended to sell to each individual merchant.
I started Stardew knowing what the game was and have never made any of these mistakes, but part of me wishes I had because it would have been entertaining learning from mistakes rather than doing a CC year 1 on my first playthrough
I didn’t know about the wiki for so long and it was fun to have to learn everything. But after 3 years on my first farm I was SO BEHIND. Now I play way more efficiently but I’m glad I had my clueless run-through experience
The humble brag is cringe.
@@Pat315 just say you’re miserable and move on
Literally not possible. Red cabbage is only available on year 2
@@davidtaylor142 the travelling cart will sell a red cabbage year 1 if you check 'year 1 completeable' on starting a new save file.
Re: 11:43 (don't chop down all your trees in your farm) you can chop down the trees outside of your farm as well, and they do grow back in the same spots
I chop down all my farm trees and forest trees and still need wood. I do save the seeds to make more trees to set up tree tappers. Maybe the rest for snacks, but usually past them by then. I usually like using cheese for food in combat.
Wheat and coffee are great because they keep the soil under them tilled and fertilized when the season changes. Consider planting a crop of wheat on Summer 24/25 and save yourself the time on Fall 1 from tilling the odd unhoed spots of dirt and lost fertilizer. Deluxe Speed gro in particular shrinks the Red cabbage crop time to be able to fit 3 harvests in a season with plently of time left for 2 wheat harvests leading into fall, losing no time for a full field of pre fertilized soil for pumpkins.
My favorite file I have is called Chicken farm and everything is chicken themed. I need to level up farming? Let me google what crops chickens like. Or maybe instead harvest wheat to get more hay to feed my chickens. The open-ended yet specific nature made me want to play.
Good idea is to build Silo as soon as possible. Its really cheap to make and you probably will get clay soon enough if you dig around a little. With silo all that grass you cut will not go waste and in winter you will not have to worry about feeding animals.
I has a fully upgraded coop when I found my first Dino egg. And I'm very curious. I chucked most of my artifacts in a chest because I was always too busy to go to the museum. One day, I decided to see the artifacts I had. I saw the egg, and I was like 'tf? Eggs? I wonder if u can incubate it?' Shane, my first spouse, gave me a void egg before this. (I didn't get the witch before so the egg was new to me.) And I tried incubating it since Shane gave it to me and he loves chickens. I was shocked when it worked. So I thought the Dino egg would do the same. I put it in the incubator since the Void chickens, David and Zane, gave me infinite void eggs for Krobus, my theory was the Dino egg would do the same. I asked all my friends that play Stardew what they did with it, and I was the only one not to donated it since they mainly married Sam or Penny so they told me they didn't get eggs from them.
As someone who nearly rage quit a save because my only tomato plant got sploded, please buy at least two of every seed at the beginning of every season on your first year. It’s wasn’t my first play through, so I had spent 40,000 on the resources to make quality sprinklers and it was too late in the season to replant when I realised it had happened and just aargh D:
i had the EXACT same thing happen to me with tomatoes. thankfully there was one for sale at the night market but it still meant i had to wait until almost year 3 to finish the community centre
@@speedsongs4904actually if you don't have the greenhouse and need 1 or 2 things for the cc and don't want to wait for winter you can just use the gardening pots that Evelyn gives you relatively soon. Put them inside your house and you won't have to wait to plant them in season
dont forget to use the scarecrow 💀💀💀💀💀
When I first played Stardew Valley I made the mistake of thinking it was like Harvest moon in which you could sow seasonal crops a day early so I was surprised when I planted the Rare Seed on Summer 28th only to see it missing on Fall 1st.
I actually made the shipping bin mistake! I felt so dumb later when trying to complete full shipment because I had gotten strawberries.. I just sold them to Pierre first year
my biggest mistake even now is procrastinating on the stupidest things in Stardew Valley
in my 4th (in-game) year and just now learning about holding down longer on an upgraded tool... Thank you.
I missed the poppy seed muffin recipe from the TV. I could have slept through 2 years, but decided I would make it my mission to collect all the hats. There's always something to do, don't sleep through to just crop day each week!
If you miss a recipe, the rerun is on Wednesday. If you watch the rerun and it's not new you haven't missed anything. First Sunday is Stir Fry. Say I miss it. Summer Wednesday and watch the rerun, I get the stir fry recipe. If you miss a lot of Sundays, then you need more Wednesdays. Or they come around every other year. So year 1 and first Sunday in year 3, 5, 7, etc. is stir fry.
I've been playing stardew valley since the release date, and I never had a farm longer than 1.5 in game years. Not because it was too boring etc, but because I was so focused on the whole "DONT DO THIS, DONT MAKE THIS MISTAKE" etc etc. I now have a save file where I play the way I want it that, and I'm almost in year 3. For me it's much more fun this way.
I’m the same!! i was so focused on that i could finish the community centre in Yr1 if i tried hard enough and that made stardew wayyy more stressful than it should be. I’m now 1.5 years in and going through stuff slowly not worrying too much :))
not sure if someone will reply to this but i just started on the game and have heard abt the 3 year thing does the game stop after that? or can i keep playing forever and it still counts the years?
@@chubluma The game will continue and still count the years!
@@almaretto oh wow! thank you :)
The thumbnail just implies Haley herself is a mistake, and I love that
Literally the first thing I did when I got stardew was put all my tools into the “chest” on my farm… it was not a chest it was the shipping bin 💀
lmaoo samee
Lewis literally tells you about the shipping bin...
You can't do that. If you open the shipping container all of your tools are grayed out, and if you tried to throw them away in the trash can in your inventory, it just doesn't do it, you can click forever and it doesn't work.
you literally cannot put your tools in the shipping container lmao. the game does not let you.
That's not true
I feel like you SHOULD NOT SELL cheese. They're reaaally good for energy and health. A gold star cheese gives a whopping +200 energy and +150 health! So sell different artisan goods and not cheese they're really good for the mines.
I keep any cheese under gold quality to use in the mines
And gold cheese only takes a week to go iridium in your basement.
NO HALEY SLANDER I LOVE MY BIMBO WIFE
thank you so much for videos like these. i went into stardew valley completely blind a few weeks ago and ive made a lot of mistakes and had to spend lots of time googling 😭
I genuinely very much enjoy your content and you sense of humor. It’s a great way to end my day right before I play Stardew Valley. You’ve definitely earned yourself another subscriber and consistent viewer :)

Fortunately for me, I finished CC before I even got my first dino egg. Seeing that the abandoned jojamart bundle needed dino mayo tipped me off that I can incubate the egg.
My biggest mistake, well so far, was on my first game I knew crops got destroyed when season change, so instead I spent the last days of spring setting up for summer. I hoed a really big field, set up everything with fertilizer and uninstalled the game when summer arrived.
I just cleared some massive realastate on my farm by getting rid of all but four of the trees. I also put four hardwood and i did not remove any mushrooms and set up main zones for each so that way hardwood can take over one corner. And regular wood can take up another at some point. I am doing some huge planning haha.
Thankfully I didn’t make a ‘Farm Farm’ but I did give my character a First and Last name so everyone said my full name every time I was mentioned heheh
My biggest mistake by far was not knowing about the elevator, I dropped so much money on ores because I had no idea how to get iron until finally noticing the elevator near the end of my first year. Also, don't sleep on transmute recipes, if you have extra copper and need iron, just covert it instead of spending time grinding iron.
Look at you now, you have gotten so far with the help of your community supporting you, good job Waligug
Thank you for the video! That was really helpful and it was nice listening to you
I just started over again, and I got SUPREMELY lucky with my first purchase at the traveling merchant and got a packet of Ancient Seeds!
one mistake i would say i learned from was, dont ignore the monster slaying challenges because the ring that boosts drops is just too good to ignore
I had just gotten the dinosaur mayo for the community center, I take my horse and I start riding into town when I see pam walking up. I talk to her while on my horse, and then get off my horse to see if she has more dialogue for the day. I forgot I was still holding the dinosaur mayo and so I gift it to her and then scream. The worst part was that she didn't even love it, it's just a liked item for her. Restarting the day is life saving though
i didn’t notice the elevator until winter year one :’)
on the bright side it was a good practice run for skull caverns :D
I did the opposite of mistake 11. I thought it would be like old harvest moons and didn't realize you could walk over most plants, so I planted EVERYTHING in a 3x3 with one side piece left out
to be fair, the shipping bin is a holdover from Harvest Moon. Unless you were familiar with it you probably wouldnt have noticed what it was for.
The problem is that Mayor Louis literally tells you at the very beginning of the game
I am obsessed with your channel I love your content, I always klick so fast when you upload, keep up the good work man and keep growing :)
Omg the desert is a great idea for tapping !!! Great thank you!
you can chop the trees down in the forest too! and they grow back without you having to do it yourself, so it's renewable trees!
I still run out of wood.
A lot of simple mistakes, I never got the chance to make. My first time playing was in multiplayer with my sister who has had several saves and with those saves had put years into them. So she would tell me the basics while we played.
The dino egg. I know has an insane low drop rate while fishing. I had to have had a lucky day. When fishing, I got a dino egg, the next fish I went for also had a dino egg. What are the chances on that with a low drop rate. Two dino eggs back to back.
With the ancient seeds. You can get them in the seed maker, even when its not the fruit you put in them. Though its a small chance, but it can happen. I was using strawberries in the seed maker and got an ancient seed from it.
When NPC's and animals block your path and they don't move, just keep walking into them. Eventually they will shake and you will walk through them. I've had my cat block my path while inside while needing to get to bed and it was a sleep, so I kept walking walking into it and the cat started shaking then I walked right through it. NPCs can do the same, block their path, they will soon walk through you and move faster.
My biggest tip is to build your smelters next to the mine elevator, not on your farm. Every time you come back up to floor 0 to drop off loot, you can check your smelters and refill them if necessary. You can easily get multiple rounds of smelting done per day this way, without having to just sit around and watch them.
Thank you!! I play on the Switch and am on my first play through. I’ve upgraded my tools but couldn’t figure out why I wasn’t getting the extended abilities. I just thought it must be a PC only thing. Doh! 🤦🏻♀️ Well, know I know, and you have a new subscriber. Thank you!!
I've been playing the game these last few weeks, I remember getting my first Prismatic Shard and i knew for myself I ain't donating it to Gunther so I just placed it in my chest lmao
Hey Wallace Gug, I have a video series idea! You should do a “100 days of stardew” series but really chill, not rushing to get cc or perfection or anything! Kinda just playing how you would if no one was watching
I got a quest for an item I foraged and sold the day before (in game). So yeah, I have started keeping more stuff than before. And thanks for letting me know about the elevator.
on the last day of a season I always buy a bunch of the cheapest crop that I can find and plant all over my farm, even though they won't grow in time (which is what I want). That way, when the nex season starts, all the crops have died and I can just get rid of them with my scythe and the farmland will still be there and it will already be watered by my sprinklers. Then I don't have to spend ages tilling and watering all of the land again before I can plant my new crops (this is more late game though)
I played a whole in game year without knowing about the elevator. I tested it the first day and it said it didn't work and never tried again. I couldn't understand how people get so deep into the mine. Then watched a few videos and it hit me.
Yep, every 5 levels.
i found my first dino egg through artifact spots and since i sucked at fishing and mining i never got one through treasure chests or skull cavern. it was so painful trying to find a new one, since i think the game makes it less likely to find an artifact you've already donated
not all artifacts. in my very first save i have gathered maybe 30 chicken statues and they keep popping up lmao
I did not know about the elevator in the mines, thank you so much!!!!!!!!
I love going into the mines so I do it once a week when I have most of the stuff done that I wanted to get done. Currently saving up on resources to get down more often in Winter instead
Speaking of the legend fish sashimi, I made a fried egg with my first ostrich egg and didn’t notice. My fridge was full of eggs but it prioritized the ostrich egg first. I had to grind the volcano until I got another
I just started playing Stardew about a week ago and I’m guilty of not using the elavator 😂 it took a few days for me to realize that it was there and I kept thinking “how the hell are people getting to floors 90+, that’s freaking impossible!”
when i started playing i had no idea the elevator was there. i think i saw it when i first went in, saw it was broken, and never looked again. man was that a revelation when i found out
I'm in year 2 with the copper tools and this video is the thing that made me realize how to use them 😭 I was in the middle of watering too, it made it go by so much faster
I still forget to charge my watering can/hoe sometimes when I first switch from basic to copper since I'm too used to not being able to.
It also took me waaay too long to start using the horse, and looking back I have no idea how I survived.
Handy tips still! I restarted a new farm in 1.6 and have been playing slow and steady (and without mods lol)
Here's a tip I've been gate keeping: when you go to the mine and lose Consinseness, you lose some of your stuff. Put stuff you don't wanna lose in a chest at the top of the mine place.
Salad is good for convenience, but honestly, Leah can be so inexpensive to romance because she likes most of the forage items.
If you are lucky enough to catch the legend in the spring you can also save it for the grange display at the fair in fall.
Do you know how come he had 2 different sprites of the Legend. Like the light green (old one?) and the dark green one which frankly looks really awesome to me.?
@@andrejz8954 The new one is the Legend II which only spawns during a certain quest from Mr. Qi.
Thanks for telling me 'bout *how* to benefit of tool upgrades. I noticed this a few days ago while watching Stardew content but didn't now what to do xD
The great think about joja is that you can finish their upgrades in the first season if you do things right meaning that you can go to the desert earlier so you can get star fruit earlier so you can make shed loads of money earlier and get all the bits of the game you want sooner where as doing the community centre requires you to wait until at least winter to finish it.
Think I'm the reerse of the last one. It took me *irl years* to realize you could sell directly to Pierre.
Yeah, that community center item thing hit me hard
I've been stuck on the three apples on the end of the year
Becouse I've already had two from fruit bat cave I've thought that I'll just get the third one quickly
I needed to wait until summer and even then it was from merchant
I've got the next apple like halfay through winter
I nearly made the mistake but I planted a apple tree into the green house
@@snowby3525 thats another one
I thought you need pots in the green house for the trees
You don't need a fully upgraded coop and barn to get the Animal Bundle. You just need a deluxe coop and any barn. You only need large milk from the barn if you get both colors of eggs (rabbits also make wool)
I did almost all of these mistakes and expect to make more cause I enjoy learning something new from the game by myself and want to experience the struggle of doing things. Like I’ve done only fishing to get money and not mining or farming in my first two years until I sneak peeked a video of someone using sprinklers for farms
That moment you realize you’ve played a game longer than a guy who has an entire TH-cam channel dedicated to…
