1.5 Progress Update: What's up with Willy?

[Magically Clueless]

ConcernedApe posted a new tweet today about his progress with 1.5!

https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1280183850350469121

He's referenced some more end-game content... what do you guys think will be in the 1.5 update, and what do you think this means for Willy?

(For those that haven't seen, 1.5 will include banana trees! We talked about it some here, and the tweets are in there as well)

Looks like the door is new, I noticed there's a boat above it, so maybe Willy will take us somewhere?

Oooooooo sailing options? Blobfishing on any evening?? Sail around the world with Penny to broaden her horizons??? Re-enactment of climax scene in Jaws for Willy's 10 heart event????


Can I make a matchstick ship in a bottle??!?

Chartered fishing in deeper seas!? Sign me up! I'm not sure, but I'm so happy he's posting more updates for the game!

This is so exciting! A small part of me hopes that Willy is somehow tied to the mermaid in the mermaid show...I think it could be the perfect narrative for a lonely sailor lol

Maybe Willy can be a deep sea fishing guide? Sailfish, Marlin, Whale?

I can't wait! I'd love character development!! and maybe fishing from boats?! Islands?! .... so much possibilities !!!!!
New romance characters?!?!? ahhh

Maybe it will work like the bus, where you have to pay willy a fee to travel to new locations using his boat, he did mention he and his father were travelling from island to island as I recall, so maybe once you get enough hearts with him, he takes you to fish to new exotic fishing spots which change daily, for a fee of course.

I dont have Twitter, so I will be checking on this topic further for release date info!

I can't wait to see more of Willy! Fishing is my favorite part of this game so I've become close with Willy and I'm so excited for whatever is to come!! I hope theres like deep-sea stuff or maybe something with the mermaid (from the mermaid show) or the merpeople the Wizard talks about OR the other sea monster you see sometimes?! I just can't wait!

 

[liquidcat]

It would be really cool if we are able to fish underwater without waiting for winter!

so we are finnaly getting options to visit insland{s} in the sea...

 

[Magically Clueless]

Some people are speculating Willy as a romance option too-- I know a few people who would be ECSTATIC about that. Not sure though! My money's on getting to visit an entirely new area via Willy's boat

 

[Aine]

I am really hopping for new npc, new people that only come to town after a few years has passed.

We'll definitely post on the forums when more info about the update is released :)

Maybe willy will just take you for a boat ride to the ocean where you can fish more fish, hoping for the island thing but this would be satisfactory

That's what I mentioned too! Maybe you could do some deep sea fishing, or chartered dive fishing.
