I play local Co-op with my wife in Switch. The day has finally arrived!! Thank you Concerned Ape

Did they ever fix the lag in local Switch co op?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago

It still stutters hard for a second or two every few minutes for me lol. Haven't installed the update yet though.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago

Tried it tonight. Perhaps slightly worse than previous. Hitchy when entering new zones

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Finally. So can you play multiplayer on mobile?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Nope Sadly

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

There is "experimental" support

Thanks, I didn't know about it. I will try it.

Does this game need more updates? I'm ready for the next game. Have been for years now

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Haunted chocolatier It's supposed to be coming out at some point in time..

The trouble is it's just one dude doing the development. He struggled with mobile development for a while That's why there was such a long delay with this.

HC is the next game he's working on but it will only come out once stardew is at a point where he can move on. From what I understand.

He delegates some things (including porting) to other developers. I am not sure about Haunted Chocolatier, but Stardew Valley has not been a solo project for several years now.

Oh thank God. Haha

I was worried for his health.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

He's a millionaire at this point. Would be really stupid to sacrifice his mental health any further for this game.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

I respect him for it but I really wish he would surround himself with a competent dev team, at least for the new one.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

There will be no Minecraft 2, Terraria 2, Stardew Valley 2 and Silk.. cough cough Half Life 3

[–] MrScottyTay 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

The issue is more that he's meant to be working on haunted chocolatier, not a stardew 2 so i don't know what point you're trying to make

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

Yea, He is still working on it. I also want to play it

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Afaik he's doing "just" minor updates now, so bugfixing, polish, and whatnot. No new content.

CA said that after 1.5, and we still got all of the big additions in 1.6, lol. Not that I'm complaining, I always enjoy an excuse to play Stardew Valley.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago

Hot take: They should have just wrapped up development ahead of the engine change. Stardew Valley 2 could have then been built from the ground up with multiplayer in mind along with all the other stuff included in the Stardew Valley content updates.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago

I don't think ConcernedApe loves his new game as much as SDV. I personally love he makes SDV the best game ever, and I think that's what CA wants the most.
