My apologies for the background noise in this one. There's a heatwave where I am right now and my microphone picked up the sound of my PC overheating and the fans working overtime. I hope it doesn't take away from your enjoyment of the video. This shouldn't be an issue in the next video :)
I paused directly after the "Alright. Let me talk to ya." (Which is one of, if not the best, intros ever. Both abrupt and intimately friendly. Hearing it sharpens the mind.) I'm highly intrigued by the concept here by the title alone. Stardew Valley is already chock full of loot boxes. Every geode is a lootbox. Many fish come with a lootbox. There are literal RNG lootboxes in the various mines. It's baked into core gameplay. Examples abound! Where is this going? I'm so intrigued! What monkeyshines, malarkey, tom-foolery, and shenanigans will ensue? I 100% trust our kind host on this. He has always steered me right. I am quivering with anticipation! [Unpauses to see the premise and what happens play out]
I absolutely LOVE your videos! They're super well-made, entertaining, funny and overall great! I think you're my favorite Stardew youtuber How do you not have more subscribers? Also, Willy is forever King William to me now lol
just got done with a stressful day of school. this calmed me right down, thank you for your calming voice and good contact that has saved me from more panicattacks than I am willing to count. :D
Hi. I've dealt with panic attacks. Life long anxiety fully bloomed in my mid 30s due to to unrelenting stress. My first full-blown panic attack was on a city bus so full I had to stand in the aisle and clutch the overhead bar. My mind was awhirl with personal and professional issues I could not resolve, but was fixated on. I started hyperventilating. I couldn't stop even though I begged with every neuron in my brain to stop, please stop! Everyone can clearly see you're losing it right now and being a super weirdo in public! I thought I has having a heart attack. I thought I was dying. I was over oxygenating and dropped boom like a bag of rice. In the middle of rush hour. On a bus. Everyone saw. I learned a lot that evening. None of it easy or pleasant. I will not tell you how to lead your life. Nope. That is yours to figure out. I was helped greatly by learning, with the help of others, how to consciously control breathing which sounds like the easiest, most natural, basic thing in the world, but it is damn difficult to do when your mind is spiraling seemingly out of control. Learning how to control my breathing was the first step of many. It takes a lot of practice and was the first of many hard steps. I wish you the very best.
I'm really glad this was able to help you because I've been in that position many times before and panic attacks are awful to experience. Take it one day at a time friendo, be kind to yourself and always remember that tomorrow is another day 😊
Oof, that chest getting destroyed. I can't play without the Non-Destructive NPCs mod. Also I personally like seeing the lootbox items on screen. So voice over with pointing out the most exciting thing seems fine to me.
It was heartbreaking realising someone destroyed my chest so I'm definitely gonna check out the Non Destructive NPCs mod, thank you for letting me know about it :) And thank you for the feedback on that! Showing every item in the chests and specifically mentioning the rare and exciting items seems like the way to go
I just stumbled across this video in my recommendations and i'm super glad! You have a really calm and entertaining style, showing enough of the days so it doesn't feel rushed but also not the whole day so it gets a bit boring. I'm probably too late with suggestions, but nevertheless: I'm honestly a fan of you always referring to them as lootboxes. It will get hilarious after it's been said so often. At least in my opinion lol. And regarding showing the contents: Maybe a counter (x amount of artifacts, x amount of seeds, etc) maybe even just visually. Definetly would appreciate about you telling us about the higlights. But also a sped up opening montage sounds awesome, maybe even combining a few of the things. Anyway thanks for the great video and the older videos i can binge the next few evenings!
I never thought that Stardew Valley would have such a curious mod, but you know, the world is sooo unpredictable úvù I love these types of videos! please keep it up :DDD This is so original and fun!
Thank you! It's always a lot of fun experimenting with mods and seeing how I can incorporate them into a playthrough so I'm really glad you enjoying watching videos about them. It's a shame you can't use mods, luckily vanilla Stardew is still a blast 😊
I loved this so much! My favourite part was absolutely the Easter bit with the quote. I almost laughed out-loud in my shared office. Would have gotten a few confused looks at that but hey-ho, you're the funniest youtuber I swear, especially with the 'if I were a Mcdonalds item, I'd be a McGoof' I'm really looking forward to the rest of the series, this looks really interesting so far and I want to see how this goes and if you can get all the goals done by the end of the year, they look pretty hefty. The friendship one should be easy-peasy though with the Community mod The 'Alright, let me talk to ya' is such a comfort to me now, I love hearing it every time I open one of your videos
If at any point I do manage to make you laugh out loud in your shared office please leave a comment letting me know because that would be such a big achievement lmao I'll be honest, I heard the "McGoofer" line from somebody else (I'm still a lot funnier than them though) I'm so happy you enjoyed this episode, I had a ton of fun making it so I'm really looking forward to getting more and more episodes up and completing the playthrough. The Part of the Community mod is so helpful, it's gonna be a struggle if I go back to not using it in the future I have some fantastic news, I definitely plan on continuing to start every video with "Alright, let me talk to ya" 😊
@@NeonAries I will absolutely let you know if you ever make me laugh out loud in my office because if my manager hears and notices, I may be fired. Worth it though (Your friend is funnier I bet if they thought of that line) Part of the Community mod is one of my favourites, I don't think I can go back to playing without it now unless its as a challenge or something Heck yeah!
The ability to send gifts through the mailbox is brilliant and I need this mod! It's not even at all game-breaking. NPCs send you gifts and recipes through the mail all the time. It makes total sense!
I wonder if it works for the Mr. Qi quest to give 50 loved gifts. That would make that one so much easier. One does miss out on the thrill of the heart pop-up bubble though, which always gives me a brain chemical boost.
That's a really good question actually, I'm excited to see if using the mailbox counts towards Mr. Qi's quest. I can personally advocate for the Mail Services mod, it's made things so much easier, especially when it comes to getting Clint to upgrade any tools. And I definitely agree about the heart bubble, I immediately feel happier every time I see that pop up
I love the idea, love the video! I get where you're coming from showing or not showing the lootboxes, I think it would be a shame if you didn't showcase them because that's kinda what it's all about, isn't it? Maybe there's an in-between, showing a summary of what you got, like an infographics daily or weekly while pointing out particular highlights or disappointments. By the way, I love the season-per-video format. Please keep doing what you're doing! ❤
An infographic each week is a beautiful idea, I feel like that might be the best way to showcase all of the items I get while also not taking up too much time. Thank you for the idea, this will actually help me a ton! :) And of course! I feel like one season per video is a good way to structure a series so I'm really happy to hear that you love it too!

Just got home from night shift and get to watch a new Neon Aries video before bed. Perfection.
I hope you enjoyed! Stardew videos are always really nice to watch before bed 😊

“ I recieve cheese. That is good.”
Indeed it is, my friend. Indeed it is.

3:10 boxes start appearing, the first one containing a LEG BONE BIG ENOUGH TO BE A WEAPON, and nobody bats an eye. pelican town is on some other LEVEL
Hurry up with episode 2! (please XD)
This is so much fun, I enjoy hearing everything in the loot boxes, not just things of note.
Mister Goobert, sir, I just stumbled upon your channel and I want you to know, your humor is adorable.
"like fighting a dragon with a plastic fork" :D
love your videos and your humor
I never thought that Stardew Valley would have such a curious mod, but you know, the world is sooo unpredictable úvù
I love these types of videos! please keep it up :DDD This is so original and fun!
I love your creative approach to Stardew--my computer is on its deathbed, so I can't use mods. I get a lot of happiness watching you use them!
Thank you! It's always a lot of fun experimenting with mods and seeing how I can incorporate them into a playthrough so I'm really glad you enjoying watching videos about them. It's a shame you can't use mods, luckily vanilla Stardew is still a blast 😊
Woah, gatcha stardew 🤯
I love that way of describing it 😂

This was an awesome idea! The amount of serotonins I got from you opening the loot boxes was great lol
I am Amazed how entertaining your videos are
i love all of your content good lord im so happy for more
let's gooooo new NeonAries series! this is going to be so unique I'm so ready 🍿

Automate is GOATED
I really like this! I'm looking foward to all the shenanigans
awesome video and really cool concept! am looking forward to the next one!!
Even if you feel the word “Lootbox” has lost all meaning, you MUST keep saying it.
I love your voice! ❤
Continue rambling, obviously
Crates from Command & Conquer > lootboxes.
Just sayin' :)
Subbed so you can get money
Mem idk I just don't think it is a good idea but as a mod ya ok
