the only actual penalty (not an opportunity cost) in AC is that your village grows weeds and itll really billy-goat up your town's rating and etc

how does that work how much money did you put into it what did you get out was it worth it? after games you are sometimes dropped crates which have weapon skins of different rarity in them, knives generally being the most valuable and rare. you can open the crates with keys which are 2.50 each. I probably put close to 200 over the course of a year and a half without even knowing it, and it only wound up being worth it because I unboxed one of the more rare knives. from there I traded that knife for three less valuable knives so that I could gamble with them and hopefully just turn my inventory into a goldmine. I succeeded somewhat and I've sold a couple skins for games. I just got the division and also superhot which I very highly recommend. games awesome. to answer your last question, I mean, no it's not worth sinking 200 into. I've heard some people dumping like 800 bucks into crates and skins and get nothing. you have to get insanely lucky like I did for it to end up being worth it at all. but yeah, buy superhot.

you can also trade just about any skin worth 2.50 or more for keys to open more crates, that's a way to avoid spending more money on opening crates.

I like stardew valley for that reason though. I play a lot of stressful games these days, I feel like it's the only one I can get super baked and just play and relax with, as opposed to bashing my head against. I like planning out my crops for the season and see it literally bear fruit, and break up the routine with mine crawling for a change of pace.

but yeah that's the gist of the positive reviews i read that aren't coming from main news sources
people play it because it's relaxing. my friend says it's perfect for hangovers. and it's certainly addictive
and i guess that's what ticks me about it. people compare it to the obvious refferences, like harvest moon or animal crossing, but to me the game actually triggers my wasted years in world of warcraft, funnily enough. which I quit for partly the same reasons. and it was hard to quit - such as it nags me that i want to go back to stardew valley (now because i want that void chicken to spawn and my bitch is talking about having babies) for nothing better as a reward than a reskin of the same other thing and a primitive drive to collection and grinding
i mean wow had its actual progression in the form of accessing new dungeons (i played before heroics kicked in) but thee inbetween was literally work. the newness of dungeons wore off fast, and still i was pumping in dozens of hours from my already worthless life
is this what being triggered feels like?
