It was pointed out (rightly) that I left off an important part of the build presentation: a picture of the completed model. Allow me to remedy that!
All things considered, it’s a neat little model. Not sure if I want to do another build like this one any time soon, though…
Ingredients:
Result:
Having wandered away from Guild Wars 2 lately, I dabbled with Diablo III for a while until someone sent me a gift on Steam: Stardew Valley.
You may have heard of it.
It’s really working for me. I can farm crops, I can raise animals, I can craft things, I can arrange my domain how I please, there are goals to meet (both “kill X in the mines for a reward” and “bring one each of all these things for a reward”), and some days it’s nice to just run around the farm cleaning up debris. And sometimes the game surprises you.
When life hands you giant melons, reach for your axe…
In the upper left corner you’ll note that I have a duck and a bunny, named Plucky and Harey respectively. (Chickens are named Henri, Etta, Clucky, and so forth.) I am bad at pet names, let’s be honest.
Now, I’m not min-maxing my gameplay. I’m just… having fun. If you’re a casual gamer, Stardew Valley may in fact be an ideal game for you. Possibly.
Of course, every now and then the game gives you the middle finger.
All that gold, no way to reach it because the only exits from my current square are up and out of the mine, or down to the next level…
If you’re on the fence about trying it out, get in touch. Maybe I could be convinced to send it as a gift. That’s how I got my copy, after all. (I turned around and bought copies for Kyla and my daughter, so paying it forward is accomplished.) It’s only $15, and money well spent.
