Console to Pc!

[Jack Of Shades]

Hello everyone!
I Used to frequent the other forums and finally noticed this new forum and had to jump over! Anyway, huge fan of the game. I own it on console, and just bought it on sale on Steam for pc. I figured it was appropriate considering I finally have a good gaming laptop. Anything I should know about the pc version, or anything I should check it?

I have not made a map yet on pc, but looking forward to making my new farm(s).

I happen to own both versions. Gameplay is literally the same except for controls (You have more control over where you place stuff, plow the soil, and stuff like that on PC). You can also add mods to the PC version which adds for hours and hours of more game time. I have a map with a group of friends, and we use Steam to connect for multiplayer, and Discord to communicate. I hope this helps!

It's pretty much the same game on PC, as Smor mentioned you'll be able to use mods if you want, and you can use stuff like Stardew Checkup which is a useful tool for tracking progress on a save.

I usually don't play with mods so I can't personally recommend any, but I can point you to a list from Pathos, the developer of SMAPI, and the most popular Stardew mods on Nexus.

I would check the mod discussions. They’re super informational and helped me a lot to get started. This thread especially https://forums.stardewvalley.net/index.php?threads/mod-recommendations.1026/. I’m in love with the automate mod personally. Making wine and aged roe is so fun now.

Sounds great, I appreciate the guidance. I heard of a time mod that makes the clock run slower so you have a much longer day. That was one of the few I've heard of that a lot of people recommend.
