this VS Stardew Valley ?

[BlackViper]

any big differences?.. have not played Stardew Valley more then 30 hours but.. this sun haven game looks very good.

Sun Haven has a lot of interesting ideas, which are kind of similar to what you see in Stardew Valley Expanded, but it needs some more time in development. There aren't any serious game breaking bugs that I've found, but there's also surprisingly little content. Maybe by the time Sun Haven hits 1.2 or 1.3 it'll be around the point where I could say I recommend it without any reservations. It's not a bad game, it just needs to be fleshed out a bit more.

Agree with the above. In its current stat, Sun Haven does feel kind of unfinished. There's no epilogue to the main story for example and it seems like the museum isn't a good long term goal at the moment since certain mobs/drops seems to be bugged.

The pacing honestly feels a bit weird. At the start you feel pulled in fifty different directions all at once and it's rather overwhelming, but I also don't really see any long term goals aside from the main story, and that can be over surprisingly quickly if you dedicate yourself to it a bit.

and while there are not game breaking bugs there are quite a few, judging by chater I have seen marriage is broken (havent done it myself)

One annoying bug is killing enemies but walking into their bodys hurts you

More activities, bosses, and a larger world scope.

Less cohesion in farming, and less involved NPC interactions.

With updates Sun Haven can easily fix the latter two, a lot like how Concerned Ape added a lot of dialogue and greatly increased the efficiency of farms.

Stardew Valley feels finished and more polished, but with less content. It's focused.

Sun Haven has more in some areas (bigger world, far superior skill system, better combat, more options on crops, meals etc), but some of them feel like bloat (especially the amount of crafting stations for no reason) or weirdly unbalanced, or wonky. It's more ambitious, and has a lot of really good stuff even in current state, it just needs refining.

I guess I'm the minority but I can't seem to recall being interested in the dating system in stardew valley, because there were no interactions with npcs whatsoever, they seemed to always have the same lines of dialogues. In SH you actually get a lot of unique dialogues with different choices for each NPC early on, and it feels like genuine talking. Idon't know if the dating events are less rewarding than in SV since I haven't tried it yet in SH, but the early interactions are FAR better here from what I can tell.

Stardew Valley is better in every single way. A game made with love and passion will always be better than a former early access game with random features tacked onto it.

Stardew does everything better and is a far more polished and complete game. This game has a lot of really cool ideas but they all seem haphazardly slapped together and doesn't feel finished or polished. Which is a shame since the magic and the skill trees are cool.

[!?!]

If you know terraria, this is like terrarias starbound.
Bigger, more unpolished, lots of potential but with some questionable design choices sometimes.

[Drox]

I feel like stardew is more focused on what its trying to do. This game feels like all those ideas but then a lot more added on. Like what a fan game of stardew would be.

[VeraelHasta]

Think of stardew valley like a steak. Perfeclty cooked, perfectly seasoned. You still may not likie it but it is the best steak.

Sun Haven is more like a multidish dinner. It has a lot of different things, some work better than others, some are unfinished, some are great.

I would personally recommend Stardew though

I was a bit overwhelmed. Although I was able to unlock all three zones, it´s quite - a lot to do. In quantity, not quality. I do basically 3x the same thing.

Thought about stardew, but I picked sunhaven becuse of fantasy setting.

Stardew Valley is currently on sale for 10.39 US dollars if you want to try it.

And note where SDV is now compared to it's release, it took several years for him to finally "finish" the game. SH is gonna be the same way but thankfully people are pumping out QoL mods and stuff so hopefully this game gets a good base of modders going. I just wish games were finished instead of these "Early Release" shxt we got going nowadays.

I'd go SDV for the sake of it being a fun, finished farm game but the NPC's are boring, and it's cheaper with tons and tooooooooons of mods that even play as SDV part 2 and better MP.
