A Stardew Valley fan has shed new light on an old post, reminding fans that the cozy and warm farm life might be a bit more nerve-wracking than they realize. While the title is known for being a fun and peaceful way to the time, it appears that everything is not as it seems, and living out Stardew Valley in real-life could be anything but peaceful.
A recent Reddit post from Puzzled-Ad4256 showcases an old Tweet that explains why one "might have a bad time" if they decided to live in Stardew Valley. The Tweet mentions the fact that the home fans are introduced to at the beginning is condemned, the townspeople are constantly asking for help and the economy completely depends on players' farming skills. While some may dream of living within a bustling small town, it seems that most agree with the original Tweets sentiment.
An Economy Entirely Dependent On One's Farm Seems A Bit Scary
Maybe The Cozy Life Is Not So Cozy...
Taking on the life of a farmer within the Stardew Valley universe might look good on paper, but fans realized almost immediately within the Reddit thread that the actual lifestyle could be daunting. There are plenty of reasons why teleporting into the title would be offputting, such as a broken-down house on the edge of town, but one commenter brings up a few other good points.

Our Take: Farm Life May Not Be What We Thought
Feeding Animals, Traversing The Mine, & Harvesting Crops
While Stardew Valley does the time and keep fans entertained, it would not be as easygoing and calm in real life. The sheer amount of tasks that need to be completed daily on a farm is enough to turn most away from the title being brought to life. Having to traverse the mine and being attacked by slimes while hoping you brought enough salad to refrain from ing out is another entity of its own, which is made very apparent by commenter Fifiiiiish, as they state:
"What do you mean I need to go mining in the monster's pit of hell if I want a better sprinkler? Can't I just order them on amazon?"
Little things such as this make Stardew Valley what it is though, and even though I personally would love to own a massive amount of land, ship off cranberries, and tend to my truffle-spawning pigs, it is probably best that we leave those things in-game.
