LAST EDITED ON Jan-09-20 AT 02:21 PM (EST)
 
In spite of being both bad at, and massively annoyed by, the fishing so-called minigame in Stardew Valley, I have, at last, in the fifth year of my reign, completed the god damn community center.

I'm still waiting for a duck to finally drop a father! I feel like Jaime in that infamous episode going "Quack, damn you!"

I'm sorry to have to inform you that this is never going to happen. :)

I know what you meant, though. Patience; they have to really like you before that starts happening, but eventually you'll have more than you know what to do with.

My internal spellchecker is as aggressive (and dimwitted) as the one on my smartphone.

Ah, the eternal dilemma of any game with a farming mechanic: When you need something, you can never find it or only find tiny amounts of it. But the moment the quest/task/etc that requires it has been satisfied, your cup immediately runneth over with the damned things.

In this run of the game, I spent in the neighborhood of two years waiting for the fourth part of a four-piece set to drop, and then got two of them in literally the same action. There's a surprising amount of RNG in Stardew Valley for a supposed farming game. :)
