Who knows if Stardew Valley is finished, but the dev behind it is "committed to not working" on it until Haunted Chocolatier is done

Remember erstwhile Haunted Chocolatier was announced… sorry, bent on, astir 4 years ago? Cripes, clip truly does alert erstwhile you're waiting connected the incredibly anticipated follow-up to 1 of the astir fashionable games of each clip doesn't it! It's nary concealed that developer Eric "ConcernedApe" Barone is blessed to instrumentality his clip with his adjacent game, and bully connected him for doing so. However, helium besides can't assistance himself but proceed to enactment connected Stardew Valley, releasing different beauteous large update for the farming crippled lone past year. The bully quality is that, based connected immoderate comments successful a caller interview, Haunted Chocolatier is the main absorption going forward.

Speaking to PC Gamer, Barone explained,"The 1.6 update is beauteous settled astatine this point. There were ongoing console ports and bug fixes, but it's beauteous settled now. I'm committed to not moving connected Stardew Valley until I'm done with Haunted Chocolatier… I deliberation it's successful a bully place. I consciousness precise coagulated astir it. I deliberation if anyone picks up Stardew Valley for the archetypal clip successful 2025, I'm precise arrogant of it, and I deliberation they'll person amusive with it if they similar this benignant of game."

Another contented he's facing is his ain work, specifically the enactment helium did erstwhile helium started improvement each those years ago. "It's been a fewer years that I've been moving connected it present and it's like, I look astatine immoderate of the worldly I did astatine the opening and I'm like, 'Oh man, present we spell again. I'm gonna person to redo each of this," Barone said. Though, helium did enactment it's not a lawsuit of thing being bad, conscionable that fixed the transition of clip he's a "different person" and his "aesthetic sensibilities person evolved."

That's 1 of the fatal flaws of crippled dev these days I think. How connected world tin you decently bespeak the creator you are present erstwhile it's a task you've been moving connected for years? A question I'm funny to spot answered whenever Haunted Chocolatier does travel out. Which, I imagine, is inactive astir apt a bully portion away.
