lol, definitely true. I was astonished when me, a 15-year-old teenager, had finished my first year married to Leah, and the first thing she said to me in the morning was something like “what a way to start the year last night” with blushed cheeks. I was like “BABY WHAT?” and started burst out laughing – nervously. I definitely wasn't expecting that lmao!
omg maybe... ngl at first I hated Elliott bc when I didn't really know how the game worked, I suddenly decided to give him a flower and he was DISGUSTED. and I was “you piece of shit, I was just being nice!!!”. even though I learned the mechanics and all, that was my first impression and kept that for a long time. I'm starting to “not hate” him now and discover his lore and all now. including this lol
Kids like it and have fun here.
Also kids' normal lives can sometimes have dark content.
There could be a good discussion about what age is appropriate to play, I think. I'm not an expert but I might lean towards letting younger ones play if they get some fun from it.
Yeah, my oldest is 5 so too young, but I'd let him play when he's old enough to understand how it works and can handle that much screen time! People smoke in public, I don't think that's inappropriate to see in the game. It's not like the farmer smokes! I guess some cut scenes are suggestive and the whole thing with Leah's ex, but they see "smoochie kisses" IRL, and Bluey has a whole episode about that. I really think it's less inappropriate than half the shit they'll be seeing on TV... and some kids are experiencing these things in their lives. My husband is a veteran with PTSD so they live with that.
Yeah, another example, Animal Crossing is a kid's game, yet there are some parents who give flak about the classic art you can collect in the game (Michelangelo's David, for instance) calling it "too obscene for kids"
Yep... classic art and porn are apparently the same thing 🙄
I am not against mature themes in kids games. Just surprised with everything being a lot more sanitized for children lately. Smoothie kisses are different than finding your friend passed out drunk on a cliff talking about just rolling off
Oh, I legit forgot about that one!! Yeah, that's worse than the romance parts. I'd still let my kids play, but that would definitely have to be something we talk about after they see it. Very good point
As long as they’re mature enough to handle Shane’s worst scenes, I think it’s okay. I think he has the most sensitive content. Obviously that depends on the child too.
Undertale, Yume Nikki (Did I spell that right?) and even notoriously FIVE NIGHTS AT FREDDYS has a huge little kid fanbase despite not only being terrifying in general, but its plots/backstories has a heavy focus on murder, especially with the villains who were serial killers that targeted children.
Even my (now grown up) Nephew played the Resident Evil games when he was like, 8 and he turned out fine.
For one to say "Kids can't play this game" sounds almost condescending, honestly.
Kids are just drawn to stuff they have no business getting their hands on. The fan bases for quite a few literal NSFW things tend to be middle schoolers or even younger.
I believe the vase in Sebastian’s room was a bong before it was edited in a patch but it still says it smells like « potent burnt grass » when you click on it.
I was so disappointed when I went to the fair in fall and he still had the smoking animation. Like, I get it’s a game, but babe, you quit.. whatcha doing over here? 🥺
It’s the same as when you get far enough into your relationship with Shane that he sobers up, but still has dialogue about drinking at the events.
Not OP, but I’m pretty sure I found all the bits. Starting with the hat and working down, here is each piece and what to put in the sewing machine with cloth to make it. OP can correct anything I get wrong, if they see this. :)
Hair Bone - Prehistoric Tibia
White Overalls Shirt - [Small] Milk
Relaxed Fit Pants - Any tree fruit except Peach or Orange (they make relaxed shorts);
you’ll also need coal or something else to dye them darker.
Space Boots - obtained from chest on floor 110 of The Mines, or from the Adventure’s Guild after reaching floor 110 of the mines.
On some specific days I believe when raining he goes to the lake and smoke for a while, also in a couple festivals and in a cutscene/heart event
He smokes by the mountain lake most nights.
After getting married he would not smoke at the lake anymore, but he still smokes at the festival for some reason
Kids can play this game, but it’s not a kids’ game.
lol, definitely true.

this was my gay awakening ngl (i was in a marry everyone playthrough back in 1.4 just to see all cutscenes)
LMAO
If you marry Elliot at the luau he says something about memories of his cabin and asking to go relive them or something.
OH MY GOD WHAT. IN THE MIDDLE OF THE LUAU??
My headcannon is Elliot is a little freak who writes best selling smut now.
omg maybe... ngl at first I hated Elliott bc when I didn't really know how the game worked, I suddenly decided to give him a flower and he was DISGUSTED. and I was “you piece of shit, I was just being nice!!!”. even though I learned the mechanics and all, that was my first impression and kept that for a long time. I'm starting to “not hate” him now and discover his lore and all now. including this lol
When she said that, I was like. Damn, I chose best girl.
LOL YES. I'm living my perfect, loving, full of cats lesbian life I could only imagine through Pinterest aesthetics
...oh dear. Alex has comments about shorts. I am so uncomfortable for the kids now. And who can forget Elliott's raunchy luau talk. Yikes.
why am I kinda curious now...
Its okay, its portrayed slightly negatively
He smokes at the festival of ice, and probably most festivals and normally
He also smokes at the train tracks.
And by his house while looking at the mountain lake at night.
What made you think it's a kid's game? There's some pretty dark themes in this game

Thats nuts. I am not saying it cant be for kids. Just more mature storyline than I expected
Jeez, some people need to chill
Simpsons already did it...

Yeah that storyline was a big “maybe I don’t let my daughter play this one yet”
As long as they’re mature enough to handle Shane’s worst scenes, I think it’s okay. I think he has the most sensitive content. Obviously that depends on the child too.
From what I've seen on posts, the younger kids are usually playing with a parent and their focus seems to be farming and animals.
Kids love mature games.
Undertale, Yume Nikki (Did I spell that right?) and even notoriously FIVE NIGHTS AT FREDDYS has a huge little kid fanbase despite not only being terrifying in general, but its plots/backstories has a heavy focus on murder, especially with the villains who were serial killers that targeted children.

Didn't say that
I was saying this to the user I was replying to, not you.
Also even then, not even exactly saying to that user either, just speaking in general terms to anyone who would listen.
I didn't mean to call anyone out, and I apologize if I did.
I only thought that until I started playing it.
Somebody show this person the twerking Harvey animation.
Oh no. I did see someone twerking at Sam's concert
I believe the vase in Sebastian’s room was a bong before it was edited in a patch but it still says it smells like « potent burnt grass » when you click on it.
What vase is that? I was outside. His room and clicked on everything and there is no bong/vase 🤨😭
If you marry him there’s a vase in the room that gets added to your house!
Oh man, it feels ick to marry Sam but I think now I gotta give it a shot lol
My head canon is that he hates beer because he's a stoner.
He also hates cheese.... what?
Everyone talks about Shane’s alcohol addiction. My Sebby baby’s lungs are OUT OF AIR here!!!
Fr, at least he tries to quit after u marry him tho
I was so disappointed when I went to the fair in fall and he still had the smoking animation. Like, I get it’s a game, but babe, you quit.. whatcha doing over here? 🥺
It’s the same as when you get far enough into your relationship with Shane that he sobers up, but still has dialogue about drinking at the events.
Does he still smoke at events when he’s tugging around a child with him?
I haven’t noticed him smoking when he has mine and Abby’s kids with him. I’ll have to pay attention at the next few festivals
But what does he smoke?
Cigs and occasionally weed.
Anyone ever been able to bum one off of him? That would be a top notch play there.
He sure is smokin'
That pretty boy is smokin' for sure
When Shane was found drunk on the floor, my son was like../Mommy. I don’t think this is a kids game. 🥴
It was a Saturday and he was standing with Sam outside Sam's house and smoking a cigarette lol
Such a Jess
Me?! I am not calling him out! I just keep getting surprised in this game. Smoke all you want
Lol i just compare him to jess in his loner behavior
Who is jess? Is it from another game or expanded? I am a little weirded out because my name is actually jess, lol
Gilmore girls character.
Okay! Not my thing, lol. I had no idea
Haha no, im sorry. Thought it would have come across different and super coincidence its youre name lol
Freaked me out!
He smokes at the fair in front of our children Acorn and Hemlock
Now you’re gonna start noticing all kinds of tiny details everywhere. Welcome to the rabbit hole.
Seb sneaks off for a puff when the vibe is right and mom's not looking.
Oh my gods I LOVE your outfit, do you have the details? 🥺❤️

Thank you!!!
This game is not for kids. Why did you think that when there are two town drunks?
Before I started playing, It looks like a kids game from the outside. Now I know it is our own reality show
What made you think it was a kids game? Have you talked to Shane?
Ahhhhh what headwear is that??
Hair bone. A prehistoric version of the hair bow
Stardew is not a kids game, yes he smokes most nights at the lake
Based
Just one of the things that makes him gross.
