I Did EVERYTHING in Stardew Valley 1.6

Before making guides on all of the new content, I needed to experience it within the natural progression of the game, so I sought to do EVERYTHING I could in the new update!

What resulted is a 50 hour long run where I got Perfection, unlocked all achievements, and filled in the brand new special collectibles page!

Thank you @Raespark for the art in the thumbnail!

Here's the lofi Stardew Valley music I use a lot:

Man, accidentally going to bed super early in winter just because it's dark is such a mood in real life. Glad Concerned Ape has added this experience into the game

[sipsicle]

44:18 "Fall 24th, 1:10pm. Harvey said I have a healthy glow. I will WIFE THIS MAN UP." just a wonderful statement

[AbbyX]

0:05 “Complete traditional, casual play through.” Proceeds to say he wants to accomplish everything

[AnthonyDayo]

1:05:30 Getting the raccoon hat from the raccoons is the same vibe as getting feet from your rabbits.

[ohwhoaitzjoe]

“Casual but includes everything” is quite the statement.

[pieceofgrass]

All the little housing changes are so nice, I havent seen many people talking about them but like Jodies and Evelyns beds were both made into full beds to fit Kent and George. Just little things that make the game feel more complete and fun to explore :)

[ballinlikestalin]

Best part of the green rain event the first year is Demetrius is outside his house wearing a hazmat suit! I mean of course he would have something like that, but still very unexpected to see!

[sosaysjayrod]

13:20 "Strawb" means Strawberries, chat, he's just using slang

[malign]

The Meadowlands farm is the first time I ever bought a Well for practical purposes rather than purely decorative

[Cheito]

“This is a casual playthrough”
Proceeds to finish the community center in year 1

[Wabajuba]

"During this playthrough I'd like to focus on animals a lot more than I usually do, as opposed to crops"

And the animals were never seen again. Nice star fruit farm though :p

Hey so fun fact! It doesn’t matter what smoked fish/dried mushrooms/dried fruit you give the raccoon’s- despite asking for different varieties any kind counts for completing the quest.This isn’t on the wiki and I’ve never heard anyone mention it anywhere, but I found it out accidentally while playing through 1.6 and I’m not sure how no one else has noticed this yet? It’s worked across multiple different play throughs and on a friend’s account as well, so I’m pretty sure it’s a real thing. I suspect it’s similar to the exploit that let you use wallpapers in the community center… or is a side affect on how bulletin board and community center quests don’t usually specify an exact *type* of artisan good you’re putting in, and just cares that its jelly or whatever.

[Countcluckular]

It’s so cute that the 2 starting chickens were given vaguely blue names

[The_Nametag]

"The adventurer's guild is already closed..." Nope. 1.6, guild stays open until 2 AM. Now to continue watching to see if you inevitably point this out and thus make me look like an idiot for posting this and trying to be helpful. :D (Though I'll have to watch the rest later, sadly can't see the whole video right now.)

[Tarshtra]

The purpose of that added side path to the quarry cave is the daily respawn of coal nodes, much like the stumps in the secret woods. They aren't guaranteed to have the same number or be in the same place, but after checking it every day for a year I only had a handful of days that didn't have at least one node, and most had 3-4.

58:23 “i chose tracker” *selects botanist*

[Spookworm]

29:22 ngl, just finding a random hat out in the wild is so good, , , I just immediately pop that sucker on, the tree said I needed this hat so I gotta at least try it out—

[StarcoreZach]

"Which ended up being Floor 115"

Floor counter in the corner showing 123 - "Am I a joke to you?"

[Aphelia.]

I'm glad you randomized the reward chests and the community center, I JUST finished a 2-year 1.6 perfection without randomizing and it would've been boring to watch the same stuff again

[TransIsBest]

31:28 Did you notice that the jelly festival has animations now? Pretty sure people just stared lifelessly into the water, but not anymore lol
