    Context: Stardew Valley has sold over 50 million copies. Assuming he hasn't blown all of that on luxury cocoa imports for research purposes, Barone probably never needs to make a videogame ever again.

    I was pretty excited when the game was announced years ago and impatient for it to come out. Now I'm just excited and in the waiting groove. Playing missed games like graveyard keeper is holding me over pretty well
