So, you may know that I am very infuriated that the 1.6 update released on PC all the way back in MARCH, and despite the fact that it's JULY, it still hasn't released on console. And then people wonder why I'm going ![Red heart :heart: ❤](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/jdecked/twemoji@latest/assets/72x72/2764.png)

insane.
This event has turned Stardew Valley from something that made me feel intensely high levels of dopamine into something that causes negative thoughts for me whenever I think about how much longer it's going to be before it's released on console.
In Subnautica: Below Zero, I found a poem by Emily Dickinson saying that "Hope ... perches in the soul" and "never stops [singing its tune]". It's a metaphor meaning that hope is always existent and helps you in times of despair.
However, I've been in despair for over 5 months, and I still can't find hope for the 1.6 update on console anywhere; even remotely. Every day, it feels like my soul gets closer and closer to blackening and eventually the tiniest glow inside of it is going to fade.
I don't understand why the update is taking so long to release, but here is what this big thread is leading to...
Why can't CA temporarily postpone Haunted Chocolatier, and work on releasing the update on console first? It's a much better way to prevent millions of former Stardew fans from becoming depressed, than the current asinine plan he is employing.
Why? Well allow me to demonstrate, *ahem* as if I even have to.
So, hardly anybody even knows what Haunted Chocolatier will even be like, and/or if it'll be better than Stardew Valley. But I guarantee there are WAY more people excited for the console 1.6 update than they are for Haunted Chocolatier.
Another reason this is a good idea is because ConcernedApe is LITERALLY the only employee who works on Stardew.
So, it's not hard to imagine that working exclusively on the console update FIRST would be more time- and cost-efficient, and could possibly even make the process... FASTER! What a concept!
So, could somebody please explain why CA isn't dedicating his energy to the 1.6 console update FIRST in line, or if he even is or not?
