Those on the other side of the issue questioned the developer’s decision-making. “i was raised to never question concernedape but i might have to break my rule this once,” saidone player.
Anotherwas more straightforward, saying, “Concerned, I’m concerned.”
While this is a small detail – oneConcernedApe found“non-spoilery” enough to share ahead of the update – it still has players considering what it could mean for the game. As one player suggested, “Wine next please- if I may be so bold.”
Whether any other currently non-consumable food items will get the same treatment in the update is unknown. What is clear is that ConcernedApe has gotten players even more excited to finally experienceStardew Valley’s first major updatein over three years.
