"I might eventually make a Stardew Valley 2," says Eric Barone, but "I just don't care about money" and it's "so much easier" to update the original
Wait, did ConcernedApe just sa🦂y Stardew Valley 2?

I know there are plenty of hardworking Stardew Valley farmers – their bones aching, their knees buckling – who are sick of waiting for creator Eric Barone's upcoming adventure game 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Haunted Chocolatier, which was first announced four years ago. So I'm🦩 sorry to do this, but you deserve to know that there's another game you need to start anticipating: Barone, also known as ConcernedApe, says he might one day make ౠa Stardew Valley sequel.
"I might eventually makeᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚ a Stardew Valley 2, to be honest" Barone says during of comedian Bobby Leeꦡ's podcast Tiger Belly.
But it sounds like turning that throwaway podcast thought into a tangible Steam purchase would be f🏅rustrating.
"It's just so much easier to just add more stuff to Stardew Valley than to make a whole new game from scratch," Barone elaborates. "The major systems are already all done. That's the stuff that's not fun to d♔o. When I make an update, it's like, you know – 'oh, throw in this, throw in that. Let's add green rain.'"
But what about the financial opportunity Stardew Valley 2 presents? A sequel to one of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:the most popular farming sims in history wouldn't just be a geyser of oil – it would꧒ be a flood, right?
"I just don't care," Barone replies when Lee asks him why he won't 𝄹charge for Stardew update꧃s. "I just don't care about money that much, to be honest."
Barone reiterates that, while he won't count out the ༺idea of a Stardew sequel, "I don't want to just be the 🌄Stardew Valley guy. That's why I'm making Haunted Chocolatier." Which brings me back to my first point…
