Stardew Valley Creator Shares Another Update About Version 1.6 Console Ports

Surely he has someone helping him. Right?

I bought Stardew Valley a couple of years ago but never got around to playing it because every time I was about to start there would be an announcement that a major update was coming, so I'd hold off. I kinda wish he'd out a pin in it and say "that's it, all done!" and move on to his next game.

@TheBitBandit I'm like that too, but there's a ton of content in Stardew that you might not catch or be able to pursue in your first playthrough. I would recommend just jumping in if you're in the mood, but I respect the wait

@CammyUnofficial Many thanks for pointing that out, I was unaware of how much I'd encounter in my first playthrough. I think I'll wait for the latest update to appear and then dive right in.

Each article about how the update isn't on consoles yet is starting to seem superfluous. Just tell us when it's live

@TheBitBandit I played it once on Switch release, then it was exactly as you said. I'm glad I found someone else with such a minor and specific problem with this game. But this is the last version... Until the next one is announced.

@link12684 As a small indie dev myself I can tell you that the more people you have working on a game the longer you spend showing them how to do things which detracts from actually building the game.

We KNOW. I am so tired of articles that say "it's coming soon to console". Like we KNOW just let us know when it here or about to drop.

@Jokerwolf Does that go for porting updates as well?

@link12684 I think it is all him still for the most part.

I think I might finally buy the PC version. Long story short, I'm wanting to make a new game and if want it to be long term, PC will be easier to keep the same file 8 years from now. I'm glad I can connect switch controllers to PC, but it'll suck not being able to play it on the go (and no, I'm not getting a steamdeck for 1 farming game)
