This game worth it for multiplayer?

I have seen some of the negative reviews are for mp, are these legit or is it just people whining over nothing?

As for multiplayer, it's a bit strange to say the least, but if you really enjoy these kind of games then it's decent enough. It can't hold its own, so if you're not totally obsessed with farming sims, it's a no.

If you are playing with friends its awesome. Im playing with my wife and one of my best mates and its an absolute blast. Loving every minute and were just all doing our thing and working together to progress and get a farm/equipment for us all. We ignored reviews. Most complain about stuff that seems to be a symptom of having played too much early access and expecting tons of new content for release.
We only started today and its been non stop fun so far. Lots more to do and no issues yet.

Yeah the multiplayer is very fake. You can plant some stuff together but quests, bosses, and other things you'd expect to be able to do in a co-op environment are all solo experiences (if you complete a quest, there is no progress update for your friend). You can't really progress with a friend unless you're each doing the exact same thing at the exact same time.

I hope they flesh out the multiplayer someday :( It's advertised -heavily- on the store page.

Honestly I wasn't enjoying playing it alone. I got my bf to play with me and it's been an absolute blast. Of course the quests and everything are individual, but you can both do your own things on your own time while helping eachother out - I'd recommend trying it out and seeing how you feel, as the multiplayer experience in this game is definitely not for everyone :D have fun!

Ive been playing with a group of discord friends (5 ppl on our farm) and its been a solid blast, we all were aware that "Quest progress" was a solo ordeal, but the farm management and Mines were a Co-Op venture. Which i like this as it lets folks enjoy the game at there pace without being pushed into going further then they want.

Gotcha, Well thanks guys!

In Stardew Valley aside from the community center pretty much everything else is also a solo thing. Like other players cannot even interact with the community center unless they also do the things that lead to going to the wizard. Enemy kills for the bounties are also individualized, so doing the mine in coop will slow down everyones progress for kills.

Caveat, I am playing locally with my wife. It's been great thus far, my only gripes are that the museum missions are not shared, meaning only one person can receive the rewards for turning in benchmarks and that, seemingly, seasonal events can only be attended by the host. As far as I know they may mean to redress these issues later on, though.
