    Have you heard that ConcernedApe took a break from working on their new game to do one last big update for Stardew? Things like improvements for mod support, some more storyline dialogue, a new yearly festival/event, hats on cats/dogs!, seasonal clothing changes for NPCs, I think additional Joja content, and something else for Ginger Island. No release date confirmed yet, but CA can take as long as necessary to work on it, I’ll still be patiently and excitedly waiting!

      I haven’t been keeping up in the update news recently and I actually wasn’t aware there was a new big update planned.

      I don’t think I’ve started a new farm since at least 1.3 at this point so I’ve got a lot to explore right now. I try not to play too much because when I do my girlfriend also remembers the game exists and then I can’t use my computer for three months and I have to beg her to eat and shower 😆

          It’s nice to have another excuse to look forward to getting one! It’s unfortunately out of my budget at the moment, but I’ll definitely keep that in mind and thank you for the tip!

      I’m excited/concerned for the 1.6 update because a ton of mods are going to break because Content Patcher will be fully obsolete. There’s an alternative to Content Patcher and modders are tryibg to prep for the update, but it’s going to be a chaotic couple of months
