I’m stuck at home, reading about all the wonderful additions to SDV and wondering when mobile will get the update. But In The corner, mocking me, is my teenager’s gaming center. A pc made just for playing. A mouse with adjustable sensitivity. Heck, it even has a gaming headset. “To hell with it”, I think and download SDV to Steam. I eagerly pick the new farm layout and all the advanced options, smugly assuming I’m up for the challenge.
I am not up for the challenge.
It is, and this should have been obvious, so much harder to move on pc than mobile. I need to use both hands to do anything. I actually have to pick the tool I need instead of it automatically appearing in my hand. My middle aged mama reflexes cannot keep up. You can imagine what the mines are like. In 9 days, I’ve only made it to level 10. Green slimes and bugs killed me, y’all. GREEN SLIMES and BUGS! I am weeping.
At least I adjusted to fishing, which only needs one hand.
But the beach farm is so beautiful and peaceful. I absolutely love it. Seeing the valley on a larger screen has been a revelation. I foresee a greenhouse full of ancient fruit and star fruit and a booming wine empire. If I survive. Poor farmer Wren. I hope she makes it.
