Any Word on 1.7?

[Luna_Tuna]

Probably not that long since he has millions of dollars to hire people to port it. I think it's gonna be on mobile at launch.

Good bc I was worried the moblie port would take forever

 

[Luna_Tuna]

Must be exciting. 1.6 was pretty exciting.

yeah I’m pretty excited, I don’t reamber the last time i experienced my first update in a game before lol it’s been years

Eh mobile is a very large market and CA won't be dumb enough to let the hype die out before releasing the game.

 

[BeenASon]

I just hope it doesn't overlap with something like GTA 6 because that be a Hollow Knight Silksong situation lmfaoo.

Yeah true

The stardew fanbase is pretty patient tho. The hype for HC won't die out even if it's delayed.

CA doesn't talk too much about his games before the release. He occasionally drops in once in a few months to give a small update. The guy is definitely gonna take his time and that's a good thing. I have a feeling HC will be better than Stardew Valley simply because CA has so much more to work with. He has matured as a person and became experienced as a dev. He has much more resources both because of his success and because of the fact that our current time period is much more technologically advanced than ten years ago. Stardew Valley has obviously been updated but it's fundamentally older than HC by a long margin. A decade is a incredibly long time in tech.

Yeah definitely, I wonder what he’s gonna add to the game, I haven’t experienced that much in the game but Im Sure he’ll add some good features, the game honestly impresses me

I'm pretty sure the chocolate making is gonna be nice.

It depends on how he releases the game, something people don't realize is that consoles and mobile platforms are a lot harder to quick release updates for, so operating on what could very much be considered an 'open beta' format like 1.6 did (where the public did much of the proper play testing), isn't as reasonable for other platforms.

Seeing so much pointless backlash following that update, though, I'd assume he just holds the update back for every platform and has a move extensive private beta

It'll make me want to eat the game... ...So good!!...

As a former game dev, I would understand that move to avoid angry or negative comments by ever unhappy people, but that would be a pity.
I remember that update 1.6 had many flaws and bugs when released, but the numerous feedback allowed for quick updates and changes that brought the game to a nice level in record time for a game played by million of people with only a handful of developers.

More people testing the game is always better. Even if there are a few rude people and hate comments the data is gonna be much more valuable to improving the update.

Curious if 1.7 features will be stacked all at once or spread across 1.7.X patches. CA mentioned a map editor, and that would be huge, especially with some online map repository with console support.
