Full seasons?

[arenaynieve]

Why Stardew valley has 31 days seasons? What I would like to see is actually a real real 12 month calendar. I know that would make the game extremely long but at the same time it would be cool.

That would be a massive annoyance any time you missed something seasonal. Then you have to play through another 9 months of game just to get back to the season you need. No thanks.

Saying full years "would not work" is perhaps a bit far.

It'd only require a re-work of the ingame holidays/birthdays/events/etc, a complete overhaul of the farming system, and a total re-balancing of the ingame economy.

It's far more work than any sane person would put into an essentialy feature-complete game, but it'd be functional.

Except at that point it wouldn't be Stardew. If you want that other game, go try Farming Simulator (year your choice).

Wrong number. Every season in SDV lasts 28 days, not 31 days.

Whoops, true. See? They are extremely short lol

the reason it's 28 day seasons is that's how it works in bokujou monogatari and that's what this games based off of

Theres not enough content for the 4 seasons we already got. Much less 12.

Unless you want to come up with 8 more months of content for 3 in game years. Or the game to be as content empty as animal crossing.

I'd burn out waaay too quickly. Of all the things the original Harvest Moon games got absolutely right, 4 months relative to seasons is the big one.

Good lord no. It's annoying enough in Animal Crossing. Every single time you miss a single seasonal fish or whatever, you can't add it to your collection for another six months - and their collectibles are BI-seasonal. Let alone the fact that a whole bunch of in-game progess in Stardew Valley is LOCKED to certain seasonal crops. Miss a single crop you need for one of those bundles? Too bad, you'll have to wait an entire year before you can progress any further there. For those of us who have actual jobs, and things to do that DON'T involve playing video games, games like that are basically unplayable. This game's seasons are already longer than Don't Starve's. It's fine the way it is.

Confirmed its a bad idea... Today I was eager to advance to Fall season (cause I needed apples to complete Pelican Center) but... somehow Summer lasted so long that there was I moment that a wanted to cut my veins xD and going just to the bed looked weird to me... So yes, seasons are ok the way they are.
