I’ve played stardew since 2018 and recently I’ve created a new farm about every year (usually in the fall). I often get something different out of each playthrough, but this time I’m explicitly trying to get myself out of a depressive funk I’m stuck in.

I chose the fishing farm because it’s one I’ve only done once before and it can be fun to have islands for different parts of the farm. Does anyone else use SDV as a mental health resource? I often joke that it’s like cheap therapy for me.

—Update— I’ve been having a great time with this playthrough. I got an early ancient seed and thought this coincidence that I matched this junimo was adorable
