I like to focus on animals during winter. They don't leave their buildings, so I don't have to chase them through the field to find them all for petting.

@FaerieDust Год назад

During the rest of the year, I try to close the coop and barn exists before I go to bed at night so I can pet them all in the morning and then let them out Though tbh once I get pigs I do prefer to keep a fenced in outdoor area, just so I won't have to search around for the truffles. That works just as well for petting purposes.

@kloklify Год назад

Immediately when you wake up go to their coops/barns and pet them while they are inside + you can milk cows/goats and collect egs etc.while you are there,makes it easier for me at least,then i know i can go do whatever else after :)

@caesportsfpsproreplays82 Год назад

u could just fence it up

@slwrabbits Год назад

@@caesportsfpsproreplays82 I like to give them free roam so they can't eat all the grass up. And yes, I could close them in at night, but sometimes my farmer gets to bed very late.

Ironically, my first winter was when I did the most progress on my playthrough. Finally made an organized layout for my farm and focused purely in earning as much money as possible through kegs in sheds and selling tea saplings.

@hfar_in_the_sky Год назад

Honestly as a semi-Harvest Moon veteran, when I was playing this game and as soon as winter hit I was immediately like "Alright! Time to hit the mines!" Especially since in Magical Melody, you could ONLY access the mines during the winter. So for me I guess my brain always associates Winter with mining in these types of games

@sleepyote 8 месяцев назад

Same for me. In Mineral Town specifically, I'd always go to the mines in winter, so I automatically did it in Stradew Valley too.

@jstar2332 3 месяца назад

I never played harvest moon, but my brain automatically wanted to just mine. Day in, day out, mining during winter 🥲

@CelestialCookie Год назад

best part of winter for me hands down is the flexibility to get whatever i need done! the lack of farm chores means i can drop whatever i’m doing for a random qi quest or skull caverns day, and it’s a great time to reorganize your planting space to better accommodate things like junimo huts & pressurized sprinklers.

@SARA-kh1kp 8 месяцев назад

You can get winter forageables in the mines, too, which when run through a seed maker will give you winter seeds. Helpful if you need more or aren't to level 7 yet.

Trees also do not grow in the desert during winter... (learned that the hard way). The only place they will grow without tree fertilizer is Ginger Island.

@sodagirl1092 3 месяца назад

Honestly Winter is such an underrated season in SDV. Its the only season where you'll probably have spare time on your hands to chat with villagers and get other stuff around the valley done like fishing, focusing on your animals, spending your money on building and tool upgrades and building friendship points with villagers you haven't really interacted with. Also an absolute godsend for catching up with the Community Centre stuff as well. You're not gonna be doing much and for a game where you're basically always grinding and pursuing some project or quest, thats not a bad thing to have.

@johnbear16 Год назад

This list is very helpful! It can be very hard figuring out things to do in winter, i usually spend the time gathering wood and stone cause im always running out lol

@crusaderguy1817 Год назад

In year 2, I finished the community center in Autumn, so winter gave me an amazing opportunity to actually focus on ginger island without having to mess around with animals and crops on my main farm.

@legendofayda Год назад

Fiber also doesn’t need to be watered, and because they stick around across seasons, they can keep your soil tilled for when you actually want to plant stuff.

@loraniedelremedios1547 Год назад

Glad i saw this as i just reached winter on my new save file..i always do is just go on skull caverns because before it was just 1.4 in mobile there was almost nothing to do in winter except for some normal stuff like fishing planting winter forgables and decorating.. but know ginger island is here now i can focuse there..

@salmence100 Год назад

It definitely feels like version 1.5 was at least partly focused on making Winter more meaningful, adding the special orders right before it in fall, making another area immune to the seasons, and adding a way to buy any seed in any season

@TheJuicyTangerine 3 месяца назад

My winter was by far my most hectic month. I had just unlocked the greenhouse and skull cavern at the end of fall, and the big community quests kept me super busy.

@bluelfsuma 9 месяцев назад

Just like in real life, I like winter most. The speed of the world grinds to a halt, and everything becomes so quiet and serene. It feels like people value interaction more in winter, as though the season causes strangers to be more polite. And barely anyone is out and about, so it feels like the world is safe to walk around in. Especially during snowfall in the wee hours of the morning. Completely gorgeous, and every sound is softened. I also love the mines, and it gives me time to finally organize and decorate my farm.

@sylvanaswindrunner4357 Год назад

Winter is great, time for preparing everything ready for the next year especially in the first year. I love to use this time to upgrade things and make my farm the way I like it for the next year

@bayumahendra1797 Год назад

For me winter is the best season to organize your farm cuttimg tree clear rock, relocate building make pathway or fence, plant tree seed Its a best seasom to focus at mining&fishing Also you have more time to make friend during winter

@Aexryus Год назад

For my partner and I, we either relax and catch-up with villagers, grind materials in the caves/skull cavern, or decorate and plan for the next farm year! I personally feel that stardew valley has so much to offer, content wise as well as its rich lore and story of the villagers; definitely the part that keeps me coming back every time! My partner loves decorating, so I leave that to her during winter as we don't have much to do 😂

@melawyn9096 11 месяцев назад

Winter seems to be the most busiest time of year for me. Working on max hearts of friendship with the villagers, planting tons and harvesting winter seeds, collecting lots of fibre with the fibre seeds, rearranging my farm, decorating my house, going deep in skull cavern and collecting tons of iridium, making pale ale, coffee, beer and wine with my kegs, petting my animals and growing my dinosaur coop. I've been experimenting with cooking lately, I keep all normal quality produce that I grow and sell the silver and gold, so I made over a hundred rhubarb pies, glazed yams, pink cakes and fruit salad and sell them

@klutterkicker Год назад

I used my first winter to prepare sprinklers and tools for the spring growing season and reorganized the farm. It's actually a great opportunity to get out of the habit of throwing down crops whenever you can and start structuring things, or restructure with sprinkler upgrades.

@s_libraaa 11 месяцев назад

Weirdly enough, Winter is my favorite season tied with Fall. Even though theres not much to do farm-wise, you can still earn SO much money by fishing and mining without the added stress of watering/ harvesting crops.

@SimuLord Год назад

One part of getting 100% completion is to level up combat to 10, and the best time to do that is during winter. Once I've done that, I tend to focus more on growing tons and tons of forageables on the farm. They sell for good money (especially with the foraging perks) and personally I just think winter fields look cool as well.

@asterparsic3693 11 месяцев назад

Honestly I love winter in stardew--I have more time to do everything other than farming and I do get slightly tired of planting and harvesting crops so it's nice to have a break

@ravvy9329 11 месяцев назад

It's a game that let's you play at your own pace. You don't need to fear getting anything, or missing stuff. Just have fun with it. There are very few things (and most of them are just collection items that don't help you at all) that you can ACTUALLY lose out on if you progress too far. And I am pretty sure Salmence has a video for those already.👍

something I learned during my playthroughs is that the best way to upgrade your watering can and hoe is to wait until winter and go straight from default to gold while you don't need them, because unless you're doing a minmax run you'll more than likely likely have been able to set aside 10 of each bar

I love the winter. My favorite season. I do find it worthwhile growing forgable seeds your first winter. Forgables are good income, especially at iridium quality. Eventually I begin to stockpile forgable seeds to roll over the season and not lose the dirt. Plus keep those kegs, jars and truffle oil makers going all weekend from your other 3 seasons of goods. I redesign my farm every winter or every other winter also.

@tyhbvft1218 Год назад

fiber seeds are great in winter i plant them at the end of fall to keep my tilled ground secured and if i need any fiber i just cut them down and replace with more seeds. it needs a bit of a prep tho if you have a big farm to save up mixed seeds but to get a lot of fiber in the winter it works wonderfully eliminating the need to grind the mines just for fiber

@LittleLondonCottages Год назад

I take the time in the winter to go to Skull Caverns. Regardless of luck, I go, gather resources and it’s always fun to get treasure rooms. This helps out in spring because after I get my seeds planted, I make more of the processing machines and replant my wood farm. Stocking up on resources during winter really does help since there’s really nothing else to do, so you can stand idly by your furnaces smelting bars.

As an addendum to the winter foragables, you can actually make a ton of money in winter via them and the tea saplings. For 2 of those seeds, 5 finer and 5 wood you get 1 tea saplings (where you get the recipe from Caroline's two heart event), which sells for 500 gold. Each packet of winter seeds sells for 30 gold. Even if you have to buy the wood from Robin you'll be at a net profit. And hey you have a ton of open fields. Might as well make some money huh?
