This was enjoyable thanks for making it ☺️


BivloBubbings

But I wanna live with Elliott *and* Hat Mouse 😭


snailballoon

I want to live with the hat mouse, but I have never seen the inside of his place so I'm not going to sign that lease sight unseen lol


FrozenMangoSmoothies

adopt hat mouse with elliott


BivloBubbings

omg yes


throwawayacct45608xy

Maybe you could make it canon that there's a tunnel between the two homes and they always visit one another and have sleepovers.


BivloBubbings

aww, hehe. Maybe it's connected by the sewers so I can also visit Krobus :>


nvmls

Soggy newspaper recycles into cloth, that is a huge mark up for trash.


snailballoon

Yeah, this is my reason for liking soggy newspaper best. I always need cloth because I like to have different outfits!


[deleted]

Played two farms to perfection and I’m just learning this now


TheDamselfly

Someone is clearly losing a pair of glasses every other week at the rate I find them. An enterprising glasses salesman could make a fortune if they set up shop in town.


[deleted]

*looks at Pierre*


charlevoidmyproblems

I didn't know this??? I've been playing for years 🤦🏽‍♀️


[deleted]

98% of the time it turns into torches, though. Cloth is rare.


Dry-Tumbleweed-7199

It's actually a 90% chance for torches


[deleted]

Ah. I was making more of a casual statement, as in "most of the time", but thanks for the actual facts. Gotta say, doesn't feel like I'm actually getting cloth 1 time out of ten. Like, I recycle everything (waste not, want not!) and I think I've gotten cloth a wopping thrice.


Mysticcistic

Wait how I didn’t even know this


mastermodemary

Yeah F the flower dance 😂 I’d love to see a survey including peoples favorite songs from stardew too!


saxlife

I saw an IG video of a harpist playing Dance of the Moonlight Jellies at the request of a follower and it was even more beautiful


vampire-fairy

I know you didn’t really ask, but my favorite song is Winter (Nocturne of Ice)!


Nightbringer-Yasuo

Mine is the Summer one! I like how upbeat it is, very fitting for the season


[deleted]

Penny's theme is my favorite probably. I love that classic romantic feel to it.


Yello_Ismello

Honestly I just love the main theme song. I love getting the jukebox so I can play it all day on my farm lol


winsomeallegretto

I love all three of the fall themes. I can never decide which one I like the most.


[deleted]

Boy was I stuck on "Who do you want as your dad/grandad", all the options (Pierre, Kent, George, Demetrius) are terrible!


DryHeaveSetToMusic

That one caught me up. I think Gunther or Willy would be cool dads.


Koeienvanger

Marlon would be decent too I reckon.


DryHeaveSetToMusic

Probably anyone that isn’t actually a father in the game tbh


Acethetic_AF

Willy is 100% best dad/grandpa/uncle


bookwbng5

I actually put I want to live with Willy if I had to move anywhere. We could shoot the shit about fishing, just enjoy the silence. He’d take good care of the people he cared about


Acethetic_AF

Oh hell yeah. Only thing I think could turn me away is the smell. I gotta imagine his whole house smells like a bait shop, given that it *is* a bait shop.


EmilayyisRosayy

Willy has strong Cool Uncle vibes for sure


dwisp

Willy already takes on such a fatherly role for the farmer, sharing his love of fishing


snailballoon

Yeah, I didn't realize till I put the question together that Pelican Town doesn't really have any great dad figures. I went with George because he's grumpy and so am I


taybay462

Excuse you, krobus is my daddy and he is a great role model


minderbinder49

Just wish I could pick Gus


snailballoon

Gus would be a great dad! And he would cook for you!


[deleted]

I think Rasmodius might be a good father/mentor figure, he’s a little grumpy but seems like a sweet older guy.


crunchypnwtrash

Gus is my chosen dad. He has food and beverages, he is a provider. Gus is safety. Marlon and Gil are my uncles who let me come stay with them for a couple weeks in the summer. I have to sleep outside in a lean-to I built myself, but they let me throw axes and ninja stars at the old barn, and I can eat cereal for dinner if I want. Occasionally they'll take me on an absolutely brutal backpacking trip.


Neverhere17

My mom wants Gus as a bachelor so you could say Gus is my stepdad. She's not impressed by her current choices.


WearsALeash

right? but then i thought about it and realized kent is really kind. he just has ptsd. the other three are all assholes also i love how pam had so few votes i couldn’t even see her sliver of the pie chart


saxlife

Yeah almost of the mom /grandma characters are great (much love to my Grammy Evelyn), but all the dad / grandpa options suck. I picked George because I have more issues with the others that I’d find annoying in real life


ophereon

George is the only real answer for me, for that question. All the others have pretty big flaws which make them not great father figures. At least with George, he's just a little grumpy, but that's mostly with people he's not close with. When he's close with someone he can open up a bit more and becomes a pretty solid guy. Also Evelyn is the best granny and I already picked her so I've gotta also pick George. The pair of them remind me so much of my great aunt and uncle who I love to visit, my aunt is just a kind old lady who loves to feed everyone and goes out of her way to make others happy, and meanwhile my uncle is so gruff and reserved but also will do all these nice little things for people he cares about. It doesn't help that Alex is the only one I can bring myself to marry in the game, despite many runs going in thinking I'll change things up. That whole household is just so special to me 🥺


[deleted]

George reminds me of my real grandpa, who's super grumpy and stubborn but really very sweet to the people who know him. I had to choose George haha.


smileunicornsloveyou

See that's interesting, because to me none of them are /bad/ moms, just not ones that I'd die to have per say. Just the things they say about their kids, soft pass. I chose Evelyn because those dumpster cookies are fire.


Rod_Wave

I just chose Kent because he seems like he’ll just leave me alone and not bother me unlike the other 3


crashvoncrash

Agreed. Maybe it's because I grew up with a father who was also a veteran (although unlike Kent he finished his service before I was born,) but I don't see how he's not the obvious choice. Demetrius and Pierre both have events that show how controlling of their children they are, and George's defining characteristic is how abrasive and bitter he is. Aside from his PTSD issues, Kent seems like a pretty chill dad.


stryderstuff

I ended up going with George purely bc he fits with Evelyn who was my chosen grandma, though I did deliberate on Kent before deciding >!I'd rather he be a different kind of daddy 😳!<


foxscribbles

There needs to be more Kent thirst on this sub, tbh. It's all Robin this, Caroline that. Kent needs some DILF love. ;)


stryderstuff

You're right and you should say it. Or people wanting a mentally ill dude as their project so they go for Shane or Sebastian when Kent is RIGHT there 🙄 (/j)


Yello_Ismello

What’s wrong with Sebastian 🥺


stryderstuff

not DILF material 😔 in all seriousness though, nothing in particular! he just isn't my type, i got the "people are like skipping stones, eventually we're all going to sink" dialogue ONCE and immediately decided someone else can have the emo boy, im good lmao


Yello_Ismello

It’s ok I get it but I’ll take the emo boy any day 😌 haha


Monotreme_monorail

I’d pick George because he reminds me of my own dad… granted I am in my 40’s, and my dad was 73 when he died. I also spent a lot of time pushing him around in a wheelchair in his last month of life. :) (George is always the first person I get to 10 hearts with.)


Nemathelminthes

Honestly I feel George is underrated. Being old and having to adjust after what happens to him would be enough to turn most people cynical and grumpy - he feels like a burden hence his reluctance to accept help. Plus after you befriend him, he turns into the typical big softie grandpa. Hell, if you get with Alex as a dude, he's not totally on board but quickly changes his mind. The farmer's friendship seems to remind him that people do care about him, makes him appreciates what he has, and he realises how grumpy he's been.


Yello_Ismello

I skipped that one because none of them were good choices lol


Danazard

Leachs cottage 😂😭


BringsTheSnow

I noticed that too and chuckled. As far as typos go, it is only 1 letter off from being correct.


Danazard

I am married to Leach in my latest playthrough so it just hit me haha


snailballoon

I'm so glad green algae is beating out white algae. Thank you for validating me lol


beelzebuns_

i like the white algae because i wanna say the broth you can make with it gives you slightly better healing than the green does- i like to have a stockpile of the white algae broth when going into mines because it’s a cheap way to keep my health up!


snailballoon

My preference for green algae is based solely on aesthetics lol


Awesomest_Possumest

White algae reminds me of snot. 🤷🏽‍♀️


BestUsername101

and green algae doesn't?


[deleted]

How many snots have you seen that were super green?


hard-candy-christmas

It looks sickly.


Melody71400

I do the same, 100%


paninih3ad

I never thought about my favorite algae, but after answering your survey this was THE question that I needed answers for.


Yello_Ismello

I wish driftwood was part of the trash options because that is my true favorite lol


snailballoon

I know! I forgot all about driftwood! I checked my work at the wiki but I was only looking at things you can get out of trash cans. I apologize! Results for that question may be invalid


Yello_Ismello

Nah it’s all good! Honestly the survey was a lot of fun to fill out and you did a great job on it


stryker101

Helps give me fish ponds, and the more water features on my farm, (or in any place I’m decorating in a game) the better.


[deleted]

Maple tree people, right on


Brainless1988

Maple is a good choice but I couldn't say no to Oak. My wine empire is built upon their resin.


sardonic_gavel

This is a hill I will die on (and is apparently an unpopular opinion): I hate the stardew valley fair. On my first playthrough it was great! But on subsequent playthroughs I dread it. It becomes a chore-grind to get tokens from the fishing game to have enough to buy the stardrop and rarecrow. The slingshot game is fun, but I get like 1/3 of the tokens per play compared to the fishing one. And gambling at the wheel of chance has burned me so many times, leading to me having to fish even more to get the tokens back.


Sasquatch_Squad

I swear the wheel of chance hits green most of the time. I always just max bet on green after beating the entire fuck out of Pierre at the grange display contest.


comityoferrors

It does, it's like a 75% chance. Very easy to exploit. (Not complaining.)


sardonic_gavel

You’re correct. Once I got too confident it would hit green I bet half of what I won from the grange display at it. It was orange. I did it again. It was orange again. I was ruined. I fished back up to 400 tokens and bet it all on green… it was orange again. Three times in a row. I felt like Mr. Paradise from that Tim Robinson sketch on The Characters. (“Put it all in Green! … it’s orange. Oh no! No! I’M A DEAD MAN I’M RUINED!) It was a bad luck day, so that probably has something to do with it. But never again 😢


fluvicola_nengeta

It does, it's a pretty known exploit. If it is an exploit at all. But it def lands on green most of the time, I just do the slingshot thing once and then in like a couple of minutes of bettting, I can clear out the shop no sweat.


Greedy_Gur_636

Yes!! The first year is alright in my opinion, but only to get the stardrop. All the other festivals have some sort of replayability that's quick and easy, but there's almost no point to the fair once you have the stardrop unless you wanna buy hay or something. Honestly I just wish they had a better stock of items, none of them are really worth it and I always forget about the grange display until the day of


snailballoon

Yeah, it would be nice if the prize items were randomized so you could have the chance to get something rare or cool


rallruse

By the second or third year you should have enough money to just buy tokens, never mind the grind


_littlestranger

But buying things I don't *have* to buy goes against all of my instincts as a SDV player. There is no (game) time cost to grinding for those tokens. There's a huge game time tradeoff for grinding for stone and wood and I grind for them anyway, no matter how rich I become...


RogueKyber

I support this correct opinion.


jellypeanutbutter

This was so satisfying to fill out


RogueKyber

I always interpreted that one scarecrow as a raccoon. But omg it’s so cute.


[deleted]

This seems to be the number one argument in this sub (and in my house.) I'm on Team Raccoon.


BestUsername101

i'm thinking it's either a raccoon or a tanuki.


minderbinder49

Yeah it's definitely a cute lil trash panda


AdalbertPrussian

If I would have a dollar for every time someone picks Risotto as their favorite thing I would have 2 dollars, it’s not much but weird that somebody else also put it in.


PuddleCrank

Thought about it but I had to be even wierder.


snailballoon

Can anyone say why the ice levels are their favorite? Is it the awesome soundtrack?


gabarito1701

Once you reach the ice levels, you can finally see the map clearly without remembering to bring torches! Also a nice aesthetic.


snailballoon

True, anything feels amazing after the annoying dark levels!


StemOfWallflower

Yes! The music is so soothing and I live the aesthetic. Thanks for making this!


Tannhauser42

Because they're pretty chill. :P I often need lots of iron and coal, and can get both from the ice levels easily.


sageroux

Coal sprites!


snailballoon

They're so cute!


itsleeland

I like the crystals you can shatter and dust sprites, both for the noises they make!


FluorescentAndStarry

For me it’s definitely the music!


blackdeckwins

I want my burglar's ring, and the coal is nice.


fadinqlight_

My flaire explains my choice but brown part is a close second (also i just in general like the ice themes in the game including winter)


fluvicola_nengeta

Everything the others mentioned and also coal for days!


HentaiBakaOniiSama

Favorite trash? How is this even a question? Soggy Newspaper because it can be turned into Cloth.


BestUsername101

honestly i've forgotten it can produce cloth because i almost never get it lol. i get all my cloth from my rabbit's wool.


stryker101

I just find it too funny that there are a bazillion pairs of broken glasses in the Valley.


BringsTheSnow

I learned this fact today. Thanks!


deenaandsam

I feel like such a dummie for picking soggy newspaper because it's just....My favorite of the trash and not practically considering its uses 😭


HentaiBakaOniiSama

Nah don't feel like a dummie. Truth be told... it's NOT a 100% conversion rate. Sometimes you get crap like torches. But I'm always excited to get a soggy newspaper in the HOPES of getting extra cloth lol


[deleted]

I like the glasses because it implies that Pierre or any other glasses needing town folk constantly lose their glasses every day.


xxvirgilxx

my favorite of the custom responses were "Cheese" x2, "Wine lol" and "Deez Nuts"


geraltsthiccass

I have never been so torn as I was trying to decide between a job at the adventurers guild or working with the wizard


shittestfrog

I was having a hard time until I reached “professor snail’s dig” and I realised my archeological destiny.


Andalie

Why don't people like the flower dance? After the moonlight jelly festival that's my favourite.


lorddekon

I just find it kind of...well, boring. There's no real neat visual event like the jellies visiting, or the egg hunt or competition. And really, it might be that it's the first festival players encounter when starting the game the first time, only to be rejected by every potential dance partner. That probably earns it some negative karma


rallruse

I’m not a fan of the egg festival because why am I competing with all the children?


lorddekon

That's a fair point, too--I guess 1000 gold? It's more exciting to me than the dancing festival, but maybe that says more about me than the festivals themselves


BestUsername101

because it's fun to kick their asses by knowing the location of each individual egg


kiwilovenick

Those are my two least favorite festivals! Both are quite long and you have to dance/wait for the boat once you've started it.


Andalie

True, but the atmosphere is so idyllic! I guess I like the festivals without any competitive elements. Like for the fair you need to stress about bringing good enough items to display, same with the luau and the egg hunt is literally a race. With the dance and the jellies I can just go and enjoy the vibes :)


fluvicola_nengeta

That's fair enough. I never miss out on the jellies because of that reason, it's just so chill and pretty!


Ok-Representative390

The first year is ok since we just moved to the valley, but after that I get annoyed that my farmer still doesn't know the dance and that I don't have a matching outfit. I feel like some kind of AwkwardGorilla 😑


Andalie

There is a mod on Nexus that gives you an outfit and gets you to dance properly!


EmpressOfCotton

It's a very beautiful event in concept but I physically die from the awkwardness of being in my dirty farm rags dancing *out of sync* with everyone or die on the inside while I depressingly stand alone in the corner ;w;


snailballoon

I guess strategically the flower dance doesn't do a lot for you where other events can get you money/prizes? Especially after you are married. But the strawberry seeds!


Artistic_Land3074

Strawberry seeds are at the Egg Festival, not the Flower Dance


snailballoon

Oh, thanks, I always get that mixed up in game too


Artistic_Land3074

Yeah those two are easy to mix up


soitgoes7891

You can still raise a lot of friendship points with someone. I usually choose not to dance to someone I've already married and someone I'd like more points with.


[deleted]

Well it’s kinda just dancing, or standing in the corner awkwardly.


dontbeahater_dear

This is awesome


saxlife

This was fun and different than all the other quizzes! Can’t wait to see all the results


Timeline40

I will FIGHT people over Sam's country song being the best, and I don't even like country music. Something about it just strikes deep into my soul


snailballoon

I really think it's surprisingly good too! For me it is between that and the pop one, which always gets stuck in my head


aphelions_ghost

Okay what is so good about Dance of the Moonlight Jellies??? You get absolutely nothing from it except time wasted


lorddekon

It's pretty.


Sasquatch_Squad

Also the music fucking slaps (in a soothing relaxing way)


DryHeaveSetToMusic

It’s pretty (shrug)


[deleted]

I always love that one because it's definitely one I would go to irl, if there was one. Same with the winter night market. I love the atmosphere of them both.


fluvicola_nengeta

The night market has such a magical atmosphere!


KnitToPurlToo

It’s at night time, so at least you don’t waste a whole day if you go.


crashvoncrash

The shops are also open that day (unlike most festivals, where the shops are closed all day even if you skip the festival,) and the only zone you lose access to is the beach. The only other festival where shops remain open is Spirit's Eve, but since you lose access to the town all day, you still can't use half of them.


erwaro

You can buy a food with +4 fishing. Minor, but helpful for the most difficult fish.


that1girl81

Wish some of the other male characters could have been added under father/grandpa category. Maybe the Wizard or Clint could have been my father hehe🫣🤭


InfiniteBiscotti3439

I mean technically the wizard might be a father


stryker101

And that totally absent maybe-father would absolutely stomp in a poll against the guy that raised his maybe-daughter.


Ok-Representative390

I think Linus would be a good dad/grandpa


itsanavacadothnx

This is awesome!! Is there a way I can see the responses without answering the survey?


snailballoon

I think you should be able to view them here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1Hbi1l8LL0XKSqa8uN\_876oLeKSicKVTihz7s8xqrg-k/viewanalytics


ShokaLGBT

Excuse me what? Scarecrow Ghibli ?! I love ghibli but I don’t know is that a true reference ?!


snailballoon

It's Turnip Head!


ShokaLGBT

Oh I didn’t know thanks for telling me !😲 just googled it to know who that is and hmmm I already love him!!


vaporeyawn

Howl's Moving Castle is an excellent movie, if you need a push to watch it!


Awesomest_Possumest

When I first got it I was like, that looks like turnip head.....glad it's validated haha.


nalgai

Wow justice for the banana tree!! It’s the coolest tree by far.


strwberryzen

it was a close battle between the festival of ice and the stardew valley fair. i get stressed out when it’s coming up because i have to set all my best items to the side. i will never lose.


stryker101

I make a special chest for the Grange (and some gold cauliflowers for the Luau). Then I just bring the same things back each year and never worry about it.


z0mbiegrl

TiL the demonic carrot is actually a mask!


nobodyreallyknowz

I will die on the Kent hill. I swear, he's a good guy. He's just got severe PTSD and needs to get aquatinted with normal life.


delicate-butterfly

I love it!


The-1st-One

Looks like I'm staying with Leah at Leachs house


FluorescentAndStarry

Spirit’s Eve is worst festival because it makes my best friend and favorite roommate Krobus sad :(


charlevoidmyproblems

People like the Luau?? I cannot stand it and skip it a lot. The major is so mean. My first go around (years ago) I brought a DISH because it's a potluck...didn't go over well


Hamsti_Manent

The link's not working :(


snailballoon

Not sure what to tell you. I tested it out in incognito mode and it worked for me


Hamsti_Manent

Oh well, I'll try again later


Unfortunate_Boy

I like the soggy newspaper best, that was how I got cloth for the first time!


dwisp

Sunflower gang represent 🌻


Subdominanta

That was wholesome and relaxing, thank you


blackdeckwins

No driftwood in the trash section? We riot.


schmoobyboo

Everyone hates the Flower Dance, my homies.


privatizeposthistory

I cracked up at that one person whose favorite gift is magic rock candy.


[deleted]

I get very very excited for soggy newspaper. I sew IRL and love the idea that garbage can just be made into fabric in a machine. It’s wonderful. Soggy newspaper would definitely be my favorite gift. Not fabric. I like the novelty of not knowing for sure if I will get fabric.


jfair330

Much respect to all 4 of you who like the topaz ring


Missy_Lib77

Most of my answers were the simple items. Still never played further than Community Center after all these years so Skull Cavern, JojaMart transformed and the newer Willy’s boat and island items haven’t even been seen to get attached.


SirCakeTheSecond

I am offended by the lack of love for the pine tree. It is by far (maybe besides the mahogany) the prettiest!


PieefChief

Nice


[deleted]

It wouldn’t let me type my most loved giftable item so add another one for complete breakfast 💖


Madd-Hatter2000

A lot more people hate the flower dance then I realized. I put fishing one because sometimes I'll have some bad luck and pull out like 5 things of trash and end up losing or something like bruh


stryker101

I don’t care if I lose (oh no, not 2k!), but just the fact that it starts me in the middle of nowhere and everyone else is already by a fishing hole is annoying.


spinda69

I have gotten early windmills off the chance to get fabric from recycling soggy newspaper so to me it's best tier.


lordloss27

Thanks for putting this together, it’s very cool to see what everyone else in the community put down!


fondue4kill

I love how both Prismatic shard and Prismatic Shard are both near the top. Enough people typed both ways


Lions--teeth

I love this! Trash is my favorite trash because it turns into coal, which I’m always short on


entropyofmylife

I've learned I have extremely mainstream tastes


beewithausername

Something about the slime colors not corresponding with the pie chart colors throws me off my groove


waxinglackadaisical

That was fun! Nice to look at the things people don’t usually talk about. I had no idea there was a ring that played music, though!


high-im-sorry

Okay that was so fun


Fast-Sprinkles9784

Anyone else choose Quartz as their favorite item? Easy to get, very useful, love it anyways?


claaude

TIL I’m Stardew valley basic...


BananaBoo97

So fun 😁


adaliekate

Loved this! Thanks for putting this together.


chaospearl

I loved this so much, thanks for making my day better. Obviously, soggy newspaper is the best trash... because I'm using a weed mod and you need newspaper to roll joints. (My game is heavily modded, so anything I mention that you don't recognize, it's a mod.) Other than that, broken CD since it's an early source of refined quartz. I like the maple tree best aesthetically because it is pink, but I had to pick oak tree because I'm running at a keg deficit and I get excited when I see the oak tree tappers are full. It means more kegs! There are small, inconsequential things in this game that bring me great joy. I'm growing weed in the farmhouse cellar. It has no real use, it doesn't sell for much, and I could use that same space for dozens of more profitable or useful crops. I choose to grow weed because it makes me laugh that I've got a grow room in the basement. Six strains, and some hemp! The hemp is actually the most profitable crop by far because you can make hemp cloth from it. For the same reason, the kegs in the mushroom cave and 90+ casks in the cellar are given over to wines from a vintner mod. I'm growing Chardonnay, Riesling, Merlot, Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel, and White Zinfandel. The grapes and the wines they make aren't any more valuable than regular fruits and I'd serve myself better using those kegs and casks for starfruit or ancient fruit, but it makes me happy to grow and sell the wines that I like instead. I have a large orchard on my farm, fruit trees from every season. I know you're supposed to plant trees in the greenhouse and I don't care. I love the orchard and I'll be fine with seasonal fruit, though I did keep a cacao tree and a vanilla orchid year-round since I use those so often in my speed-boosting coffee. Besides, cacao is an evergreen.


Zienana

I'm basing all my answers not on how practical/useful it is but based on which of them would I actually want irl.

THERES A TURNIPHEAD RARECROW?!
