Comment on Stardew Valley dethrones Valve classic as Steam’s top-rated game
ipitco@lemmybefree.net 3 days agono money at all is ever required by the game from the player
Yes it is though? To upgrade the house, purchase new equipment, buildings, to see more features
Sure, you can do without money, but then you’re going to miss half of the game’s features

I might be remembering wrong, but I think it is entirely possible to develop relationships with the town characters and see almost all of the cutscenes without ever upgrading any of those.

maybe, but I would say that’s not most of the game’s features, I personally don’t really care about it

Then you don’t engage with over 60% of the game anyways. Sounds to me like a balanced game that has something to offer to a variety of players, and anxieties, overfixation and stress with some gameplay and not other seems to be something the player brings in and is not caused by the game.
