The creator of Stardew Valley has said that he might make Stardew Valley 2, but he really enjoys just adding ‘more stuff to Stardew Valley.’

    The slow movement is what kept me from playing it forever. I know there’s mods that improve it, but I wish the base speed would be higher.

    Back at 1.0 launch it also had a bug where walking diagonally was even slower, so that may have affected my judgment as well - it was fixed after a week or so.

      There are plenty of both permanent and temporary speed increases, with the permanent ones you are almost as fast as the horse. And with temporary ones you can be faster than it. No need for mods, just base game. And these are things you easily earn part way through the first year.

        I don’t recall there being permanent move speed increases at all, but it has been some time since I played. I think there second island was relatively new when I last plagued. Is that something that was added, or something I missed when I played before?

          Not sure specifically when they were added, but they are there now. Play the game once every 3 years or so, hehe. Last playthrough we did a 6 player group game. Basically played it like it was dnd sessions. That playthrough had the move speed stuff. Comes from a book seller. So if you know when that book seller was added, it would be then probably.

      In case you’re not aware, there are ways to increase your speed within the game which feel like earned progress.
