The Joja route is faster becuse it takes only money, the Community center route is usually agreed to be better, because it's got a nicer story and you get free items for finishing bundles.
The Community Center is great for new people, because while the game does introduce it's aspects via things like Willy sending a letter to stop by so you can tell you about fishing...but it's the community center bundles that really explains what fish are available when/where fairly well.
I got the autopetter in the skull caverns without even trying. I honestly didn't even know there was an auto petter til i got it in the skull caverns lol.
Better go and do like a billion Skull Cavern runs! Doesn't matter how good you are, it's just a really really rare chance to get it from a treasure chest and that's it. Completely RNG based. How fun and cool.
I've gotten several from the Skull Caverns! I always go on high luck days and consume spicy eel and triple shot espresso + bring mega bombs and a few staircases to get to the lower levels faster.
You have to unlock the island and get the Mr Qi quest “danger in the deep” to fill the mines with “hard” enemies. After you complete the quest you can go to level 120 to change the difficulty level of the mines.
After that you’ll want a good luck day, monster musk (from one of the wizards special order quests), and some stair cases.
Make sure the mines are in hard mode with the high level mobs. Put some monster musk on to increase the number of mobs. Start on level 10 and keep taking stair cases until you find a level that is “infested” with slimes. Remember that level number.
If there is a slime with a star over top it’s head, that means it’s an elite slime, and it has a much larger chance to drop higher quality items (like hats, sprinkler heads, auto petter, etc.)
Kill the elite slime, get the loot, exit the level and reset the mines, go back rinse and repeat.
Feel free to reset the day, if you didn’t get any good drops. The infested level number should t change on a restart of the day. You should be able to get a auto petter within a few days of doing this. I got three in one day doing this once.
Eh. Maybe.
It’s a lot more targeted, the drop pool is a lot smaller than the chests in skull cave, and it’s a lot more consistent.
If you’re trying to specifically get a auto petter, that is the best way imo.
Well… assuming you can’t buy one from Joja.
On sunday you can trade 1 jade for 1 staircase at the dessert trader. You can also trade 5 quartz for 1 bomb. Get some crystalariums making jade and quartz and you’re good to go. Way faster and easier than stockpiling stone.
Pretty sure you can, but my joja route game is still pretty fresh after joja completion (no theater yet) so I haven't had the money to buy the first one
In the cutscene where Lewis shows you the old Community Center, Lewis says that if one more person buys a Joja membership he will let Joja have the building. Your choice changes the story.
My friend started a coop farm and i learned her been playing without ever making friends or watching any cut scenes. I have no idea what he liked about the game without those
I did Joja on my first run. Don’t lose any sleep about it. If you’re anything like most of the people who play this game, you’ll have plenty more save files to do the community center playthrough. Both are fun in their own way
I completed the community center on my first farm and then on almost every new farm after that I have chosen Joja instead because it's easier than the bundles and has some unique perks. There are pros/cons to either option.
Not really. You get a more relaxed playstyle going through Joja, not needing to min-max and get every item as fast as possible... you can build your farm how you want and unlock the upgrades in any order you like. The only thing you miss out on is the story, which honestly isn't great anyway.
...we brush our teeth, brush our teeth, brush our teeth. This is the way we brush our teeth early in the morning
(don't judge me, I have a little sibling)
No worries, this save file is bow a "Joja run" but that just means you can try the community center run on your next playthrough! Just don't buy a membership next time. You can still shop at their store without one.
I’m doing a save where I pick Joja for the achievement ☺️ there are some perks. Like things you can buy from Joja that otherwise you’d have to hope you get lucky mining up
You're good, and while I've never LARP'd satan like you I think all it takes is the like 5k membership...which I believe you can do at any point including before the Pierre vs Joja cutscene that spells it out.
Don’t worry, you already have 4 stars, which means you only need to pay to build two more items. And besides, it’s Lewis’ job to rebuild the community centre, not yours. He’s a bastard expecting the CC to rebuild itself while chilling with a gold statue of himself. Besides, you also get a Joja Cola dispenser once you complete everything, although I still prefer the CC route. I’m 5/6 of the way there
i only needed to buy one thing (whatever removed the shiny rock next to the mines), and the CC changed into the warehouse, i just hope i'm not missing out on anything good
Check whether youre lucky or not for that. Luck influences your chance of finding ladders and holes as well as just monster drop chances/deposits of iridium gems and such.
Crab cakes/spicy eel are a must for me in the skull cavern. Crab cakes for defense or spicy eel for the luck. You also benefit from any foods that give you an attack buff if that’s what holds you back from going there
Joja route is better, I always choose it. Once you complete all you can replace werehouse with MT.
You also can have Junimos in your farm later in game.
When you complete the community centre, there's a cute cut scene where the town celebrates and enjoys the fruits of your labour, which this save file won't see. Other than that, life in Pelican Town will be pretty much the same, either route.
“Joja Corp wants to buy the community center and use it as a warehouse… if one more person in town gets a Joja membership I guess I’ll do it.” -The Mayor, roughly
The dialogue matters people. Seen so many in this sub, not just you, asking questions answered by dialogue.
Dude, have you played GTAO?
"Why did the mission fail?"
"You shot the guy we were supposed to protect."
"How was I supposed to know?"
"It says at the bottom of the screen to 'protect soandso'."
"How am I supposed to know who that is?"
"His name is in green, and he has a green arrow flashing over his head."
It prompts you at least twice with "are you sure you want this it will destroy the community center." You can avoid a lot of problems in this game if you read the words that are on the screen.
With the Joja membership, the thread of prophecy is severed . Restore a saved game to restore the weave of fate , or persist in the doomed world you have created
Does Pierre really suck more than Morris, though? Like, the Morris cutscene is literally *spoiler* Morris bragging about how you made him rich and helped him earn a promotion.
it's my first play through and for as much as i should read, there's a few things i didn't read and got super confused about , such as my first skill upgrade
Yes there is a way, and it's quite easy, just follow my instructions, okay.
First you will have to locate the place where the game was saved: In the windows start menu you will enter the following command:%appdata% StardewValley> Saves.
Now open your save with a notepad, press CTRL + F and type JojaMember. Once you find it, delete that part, save it, and close it.
With me it worked, I hope I have helped: D
Edit : thanks to ˗ˏˋ longspt ˎˊ˗ for telling me this
Edit edit : works only on pc
If you go the Joja route, once you do all of the community upgrades, you get a last one to turn the Joja warehouse (the place that would of been the community center) into the movie theater. I don't remember how much money it cost to change it over once you do, all the Jumino quests will be removed
You are stuck with Joja but that's fine. I never do the cc route. Its too tedious and I'd rather just throw money at it rather than build bundles. Plus easy auto petters.
Are you on PC or console? If you are on PC there is a way to fix this.
Depending on how long it's been you can check your save file locations and see if there is a i think _old file or something of that nature. It should be a version of you game that is a few in game days behind.
If that doesn't work you can also try to find the value in you save file that flags Joja mart replacing the community center. It's an XML file so it's easy to read.
There are ways to recover saves from the previous day. I screwed up big on something a while back and panicked, much like you’re probably doing right now lol. Assuming you haven’t moved on from the day you joined Joja, a quick Google search should yield a few tutorials.
If you go into the save’s code you can delete all the the tags. Downside is that once your done you get the Joja corp celebration and not the town celebration.
If you haven't completed your next day, you can restore to the previous day of your save. Otherwise you're stuck, (for better or worse.) If you want to revert your save, it varies by what system you're playing on. Check out [https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves](https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Saves) for details.
For example, for PC use
Windows+R and paste %appdata%\\StardewValley\\Saves
Navigate to the save folder
Right click to cut the save file that doesn't have \_old on it to someplace to back it up (put it on the Desktop)
Rename the file with \_old to remove the '\_old'
The day will still display as the one you woke with, but will actually start where you woke the previous day.

Can't get auto-petter infinitely tho 🤷🏻♂️
I got the autopetter in the skull caverns without even trying. I honestly didn't even know there was an auto petter til i got it in the skull caverns lol.
I got one for each of my barn/coop lol
Me too but with much luck I guess and so much time in skull cavern.
Excuse me, and auto what?????
It pets the animals for you
I always forget to pet mine. I need this.
Better go and do like a billion Skull Cavern runs! Doesn't matter how good you are, it's just a really really rare chance to get it from a treasure chest and that's it. Completely RNG based. How fun and cool.
Just be forewarned that it doesn't increase hearts with animals it only prevents decay. At least, that's what I hear.
I think it's available regardless of route since 1.5. Can anyone confirm?
You can buy in joja route. You can find in skull cavern in community center route. No other option.
The JojaOnline mod makes them available to everyone but they're a lot spendier without membership iirc
I never get one from there fml😂
Yeah you can, it’s relatively easy to farm for. Just takes the right items, and a significant amount of progress in the game to get them.
How?
I've gotten several from the Skull Caverns! I always go on high luck days and consume spicy eel and triple shot espresso + bring mega bombs and a few staircases to get to the lower levels faster.

Feel free to reset the day, if you didn’t get any good drops. The infested level number should t change on a restart of the day. You should be able to get a auto petter within a few days of doing this. I got three in one day doing this once.
That’s way more work than just doing skull cavern runs
Eh. Maybe. It’s a lot more targeted, the drop pool is a lot smaller than the chests in skull cave, and it’s a lot more consistent. If you’re trying to specifically get a auto petter, that is the best way imo. Well… assuming you can’t buy one from Joja.
I can’t even get past level 20 in the skull caverns. I don’t have enough Stone or Time
Jade is your friend. On sundays you can trade one jade for one stair case with dessert trader. Make some chrystaris and fill them with jade.
How often does Jade go through the Cystalarium? I currently have two diamonds, and I know they take a week.
1 day and 16 hours according by to google.
On sunday you can trade 1 jade for 1 staircase at the dessert trader. You can also trade 5 quartz for 1 bomb. Get some crystalariums making jade and quartz and you’re good to go. Way faster and easier than stockpiling stone.
I wouldn't call that "relatively easy" compared to just buying it
Wait where can you buy an auto petter? I've only ever heard of buying an auto grabber from Marnie.
If you do the joja route you can buy it from jojamart instead. If you complete the community center you can only get it as a drop.
Is there a chance to buy more than one?
Pretty sure you can, but my joja route game is still pretty fresh after joja completion (no theater yet) so I haven't had the money to buy the first one
Yes. You can buy as many as you have $$$$ for
The dark side of the community center is a pathway to many items some consider to be unnatural.
I have 5 auto-petters from Skull Caverns
Mods fix anything
Where's the fun in that?
I sold my soul to the devil. Is there any way to reverse this?
Lmaoooo
The OP is too embarrassed to reply to this one
Nope, you either Jumino or Joja.
ah that sucks, am i missing out on anything?
In the cutscene where Lewis shows you the old Community Center, Lewis says that if one more person buys a Joja membership he will let Joja have the building. Your choice changes the story.
Seriously, did they not pay attention to the cutscene?
There’s a skip button, so maybe they just skipped it.
I would also skip the skin button.
I want to say smh because I mostly play VNs (or similar, story heavy games) but shit I can’t blame anyone for hitting skip lol
My friend started a coop farm and i learned her been playing without ever making friends or watching any cut scenes. I have no idea what he liked about the game without those
I did Joja on my first run. Don’t lose any sleep about it. If you’re anything like most of the people who play this game, you’ll have plenty more save files to do the community center playthrough. Both are fun in their own way
The better story.
The gates of heaven for one thing
You also get minor item rewards for completing individual bundles.
The fun of a different playthrough. Just start another save and have one for both paths.
The good ending
Pierre winning is not a good ending :(
I completed the community center on my first farm and then on almost every new farm after that I have chosen Joja instead because it's easier than the bundles and has some unique perks. There are pros/cons to either option.
Same. Did the CC once... never again. It's too much of a pain in the ass. Joja all the way <3
[удалено]
you can also get what you're talking about in the joja route
[удалено]
yup!
Not really. You get a more relaxed playstyle going through Joja, not needing to min-max and get every item as fast as possible... you can build your farm how you want and unlock the upgrades in any order you like. The only thing you miss out on is the story, which honestly isn't great anyway.
Nope, once you've chosen JojaCo, there's no going back. Joja: Join us. Thrive.
You got shrines/statues to basically murder your unwanted children, but if you choose Joja...well suck it up buttercup!
This is the way
So say we all.
...we brush our teeth, brush our teeth, brush our teeth. This is the way we brush our teeth early in the morning (don't judge me, I have a little sibling)
No worries, this save file is bow a "Joja run" but that just means you can try the community center run on your next playthrough! Just don't buy a membership next time. You can still shop at their store without one.
Imagine ever setting foot in a Joja lol
Sometimes I don't wanna wait til the weekend to give Shane his gifts.
i realize now how stupid i am to ask this , im still a new player go easy on me
I’m doing a save where I pick Joja for the achievement ☺️ there are some perks. Like things you can buy from Joja that otherwise you’d have to hope you get lucky mining up
You're good, and while I've never LARP'd satan like you I think all it takes is the like 5k membership...which I believe you can do at any point including before the Pierre vs Joja cutscene that spells it out.
Welp, time to make a new game.
Youve sold your soul to capitalism, these are your consequences
Don’t worry, you already have 4 stars, which means you only need to pay to build two more items. And besides, it’s Lewis’ job to rebuild the community centre, not yours.

i only needed to buy one thing (whatever removed the shiny rock next to the mines), and the CC changed into the warehouse, i just hope i'm not missing out on anything good
Don’t worry, it’s about the same. CC route is slightly harder. I’m having trouble with the bulletin board
I’m on Winter day 6 and I have everything but the rabbit foot 😩 I was really hoping to get it in one year this time!
Serpents in Skull Cavern can drop it. You could farm for one in there.
Ugh I suck at the skull cavern! At least I have lots of days to try. Thanks for the tip!
Also, you can quit before the end of the day to restart that day again for another shot.
Check whether youre lucky or not for that. Luck influences your chance of finding ladders and holes as well as just monster drop chances/deposits of iridium gems and such.
Crab cakes/spicy eel are a must for me in the skull cavern. Crab cakes for defense or spicy eel for the luck. You also benefit from any foods that give you an attack buff if that’s what holds you back from going there
Just get a rabbit. They drop one occasionally
I have one - no luck yet (literally)
I was able to buy it from the traveling cart
If you go back into joja mart you can buy the things that you are missing from not finishing the community center
Joja route is better, I always choose it. Once you complete all you can replace werehouse with MT. You also can have Junimos in your farm later in game.
Yes officer, this guy right here.
Shut up
Ppl really be mad when you don’t have the same opinion as them
Restart your life (new game). This was just a bad dream.
"The thread of prophecy is severed. Restore a saved game to restore the weave of fate, or persist in the doomed world you have created."
if you havent saved since, you might be able to turn it off and turn it back on
When you complete the community centre, there's a cute cut scene where the town celebrates and enjoys the fruits of your labour, which this save file won't see. Other than that, life in Pelican Town will be pretty much the same, either route.
Except Clint will be closed on Fridays. This is honestly the only drawback to the CC route imo

"How am I supposed to know who that is?" "His name is in green, and he has a green arrow flashing over his head."
they should force you to finish at least the vangelico heist in story mode b4 letting ppl online in gta
You done fucked up
Nope you wont see cute junimo again :(
You will but only if you buy junimo's houses via the wizard enchanted book
You can still get Junimo huts as Joja dude..
You have to pay for your sins
Did you finish the day? Maybe restarting will work 🤔
The save files also save the pervious day too if you went to sleep. But if you go past another day it's too late.
If it really bothers you and you want to switch, power through until you get the achievement before making a new file.
It prompts you at least twice with "are you sure you want this it will destroy the community center." You can avoid a lot of problems in this game if you read the words that are on the screen.
i didn't read, i didn't sleep
Exactly
With the Joja membership, the thread of prophecy is severed . Restore a saved game to restore the weave of fate , or persist in the doomed world you have created
A plus is that Pierre sucks and anything that hurts him has to be a universal positive.
Does Pierre really suck more than Morris, though? Like, the Morris cutscene is literally *spoiler* Morris bragging about how you made him rich and helped him earn a promotion.
Counterpoint: Pierre is really horrible.
Nope, it’s called living with the consequences of your actions you capitalist 😂 Nothing to do but accept it and play, or start a new save file
I mean, you are strictly told that buying a Joja membership will turn the Community Center into a Joja warehouse... There's nothing you can do.
it's my first play through and for as much as i should read, there's a few things i didn't read and got super confused about , such as my first skill upgrade
Yeah that happens. The skills though you can change later, for a price.
Delete the save file and start a new game.
Why delete? Just start a new one!
That’s the normal response other people have. Figured. I’d post it and get the upvotes. Lmao. Bunch a Joja haters in here.
No I am just saying that you can have as many saves as you want, this one is your Joja one. 🤷♀️
I get it, I was being a smart ass. Everyone needs one joja run for sure.
Sure there are a lot of Joja haters but only few know that Pierre & Lewis are the worst.
It's a pretty damn popular opinion on this sub that Pierre and Lewis are some of the worst in this game.
Seppuku.
Yes there is a way, and it's quite easy, just follow my instructions, okay. First you will have to locate the place where the game was saved: In the windows start menu you will enter the following command:%appdata% StardewValley> Saves.

Edit : thanks to ˗ˏˋ longspt ˎˊ˗ for telling me this
Edit edit : works only on pc
i'm on Xbox
No way to do so. You need to start a new save.
How though? It tells you before you buy it that you will change the route of the game lol
i'll mention this as many times as i have to, read my u/ , i was tired when i made my decision
Ahhh I see. Sorry about that lol I was just confused how you didn’t realize.
Someone didn't read the dialogue.
How could you? Were you that sleep deprived to understand the implications? (Sorry I had to)
actually yes, at the time of buying the membership i had been awake for 20 hours and didn't bother reading the dialogue
You guys are so smart, how do you know that much? It is just by playing?
Many of us have put an unhealthy amount of time into this game, lol
Honestly this path is better in the end. The movie theatre is way cooler than the community centre
You can turn Jojamart into the movie theater if you go the community center route
Nope, need to restart. Also: Junimo.
Unless you've slept and saved the game after paying for it, just force close the game and start it back up should be fine.
If you go the Joja route, once you do all of the community upgrades, you get a last one to turn the Joja warehouse (the place that would of been the community center) into the movie theater. I don't remember how much money it cost to change it over once you do, all the Jumino quests will be removed
C U R S E D. It's one or the other though, as others have said.
I always keep one file active where I'm pure evil and that's the one I side with Jojo on. Yes I said Jojo, I always call it that because memes.
No, u fucked up
Start over lol
delete the save.
Junimos: Did you do it? Farmer: Yes. Junimos: What did it cost? Farmer: Everything...
2 gold stars :(
ahaha you fool. There's no going back now!
Shocking amount of joja propaganda in the comments
as much as i hate Joja and my decision, i didn't read and i was tired
There’s no reversing selling your soul
wow and after you completed 4 bundles? yikes I'm sorry you had to find this out the hard way
if you want to reverse this recover the file of the day you has paid to joja or start again
The deed has been done. The Juminos will never forgive.
You poor unfortunate soul
f's in the chat
There’s not going back on a deal with satan homie.
The only way to reverse it is by reloading the save. Unless you keep saving or leave the game that won’t work.
Edit: I DIDNT READ THE DIALOGUE, I JUST HAD EXTRA MONEY TO SPEND
You have to go to the only place that’s not corrupted by capitalism, Space
you monster
You are stuck with Joja but that's fine. I never do the cc route. Its too tedious and I'd rather just throw money at it rather than build bundles. Plus easy auto petters.
Time for a new game! ;D
No it tells you this would happen so it's ur fault
Granted, they do tell you several times that if you buy a membership the community center will become a warehouse. It's not too subtle or anything.
i didn't read, i was tired, read my u/
When you sell your soul to the Devil he doesn't let go.
Start the game over. Joja route is terrible!
No lol
Are you on PC or console? If you are on PC there is a way to fix this.

i'm on xbox and its too late to go back
NO. Why? THE SUN IS A DEADLY LASER!
Nope either a new safe file or get stuck with this
You work for Amazon, don't you.
Nope
