Stardew Valley is one of my most anticipated games of the year and I am happy with each bit of news that comes out about it. Recently, some really interesting information surfaced about the games main story. The main character is from Pelican Town and has the option to restore the old Community Center.
"This building was once the heart and soul of Pelican Town… a place for citizens to gather, socialize, and collaborate. But that was long ago, In a bygone age when the valley was more isolated from the outside world. Now, the community center is in shambles, a forgotten relic of the past…
The community center is divided into six areas… the Pantry, the Art Studio, the Fish Tank, the Vault, the Bulletin Board, and the Boiler Room. To repair each area, you’ll need to complete a number of “bundles”:
Each bundle consists of a selection of items and corresponds to a unique aspect of the game. They are designed not to be “grindy”, but rather to encourage players to explore the various facets of Stardew Valley. pickaxeICONWhen you’ve completed all the bundles for an area, that area will be restored and a permanent, positive change will happen in the valley (a new area might become available, for example)."
I like that Stardew Valley has a interesting story, but it's not the typical "save the universe trope" we see over and over again. Plus, who would rather restore the old Community Center and party down at the town harvest festival than shooting a bunch of people in the face in the next Call of Duty? Personally, I would prefer the former.

I do dig the vibe of this game. At first I wasn't too interested, but as I'm learning more, it seems like something I'd like to check out. Thanks for the update!
