20 Quality of Life Improvements in Stardew Valley 1.6 Update
Hey there everyone PhilChill here and welcome to today’s video I hope everyone has been enjoying the 1.6 update and all of the quality of life changes that came with it in every update of stardew valley there have always been some awesome things that change the game for the better and
The 1.6 update has a lot of them as well today we’ll be covering 20 quality of life changes that were added in the new update starting off with the First Quality of Life update and and
One that I have been Overjoyed to see which is you can no longer pick up rugs if there’s something on them I can’t remember the times I have accidentally picked up the rug beneath some tables or chairs and couldn’t place it back due to the items already being placed there it
Was a pain to just remove them put the rock back the furniture back just to have the old look but now we can say goodbye to the rug pulling in the house next up we have a very nice quality
Of life update that is really amazing and it’s one that concerns Pam no we’re not getting rid of Pam sadly but we will still be having a small change with her if for any reason Pam decides she
Won’t be coming to the bus stop she will leave a sign informing you about that and you have to drive yourself to the desert the only thing that makes me wonder is when did we get our driver’s
License in the game and where’s our car come on another one that we have which is a bit smaller but it’s a bit gamechanging is that now you can put torches on sprinklers lighting up that farming
Area a bit for me this is really nice and improves the quality of the game where you’ll always have some lighting when you’re trying to farm or like plant crops in the evening hours after a festival or something like that so it’s quite a welcome update the following quality of life update that
We have which is quite game-changing for me is that you can now strafe while charging a watering can or hoe this will allow you to reposition your tool hitbox area without changing your facing Direction which will save you time and energy can’t remember the times I wasted some energy
When I rewatered a spot fce by accident and now all of those bad things will be just memories with the change and now we have one for all of those lazy pairs out there you can now pay this golden
Parrot found at the volcano dungeon entrance to find all of the golden wallnuts for you I I don’t think I will be using it for myself but a lot of players out there would probably want to get quick
Access to Mr Key’s golden Walnut Room he’s quite expensive and he works for Georgia so keep that in mind chests also get a few quality of life changes as well where NPCs won’t destroy chests
When they run into them now anytime a villager has a chest in their way they will just shove it out of their way instead of destroying the chest and losing all the items in it this will surely
SA save a lot of items from destruction in many playthroughs which is quite nice and all of your storage chests spread around the valley will be safe and another small update concerning chests is that you can now move field chests by hitting them twice with a heavy tool this will save you a
Lot of time where you previously had to click on a full chest a lot of times in order for you to move when hitting the chest with a heavy tool it will only move one space at a time so keep that in mind
For all of the decorators out there there has been a small change where you will now be able to put flooring underneath most of the buildings on the farm you can now use this to get the perfect look
For your farm another quite big quality of life change that we got in this new update concerns the Slime Hutch the Slime Hutch got a down siiz where it now occupies a smaller area on the farm you can
Also change the flooring of the Slime Hutch and remove the starter incubator inside as well if you place crafted flooring inside slime balls will no longer appear on it giving you more control inside the hatch now for the next Quality of Life Update which concerns fishing fishing got a lot of
Changes as well including the fish bait now you can get specific fish type bait which you can use to increase your chances of those fish biting it’s going to be a lifesaver when you need only a
Certain type of fish but limited time in catching it so this is an amazing update ref refilling the slingshot ammo is now made easier in the past when you wanted to refill the items by right clicking it would just swap the item Stacks but now it properly refills the slingshot if you’re using
The same ammo so combat is made much easier and more fluid next up we have a small little Quality of Life Update which concerns the crystarium in the game in the past I lost a lot of gems when I
Tried to replace the one inside the crystarium but now they will have to be removed moved and replaced before you are able to put a different gem inside this change is very welcome since I can’t even count the number of gems I wasted by accidentally refilling the crystalarium in the
Past so I love this change another change that we have is concerning Cactus seeds since you can’t plant these on the farm a lot of players wasted the seeds where they died overnight now
If you try to plant the cactus seeds on the farm it will fail with a message instead of them dying overnight there was also a small update for the fish ponds now whenever you empty a full fish pond
It will cause the remaining fish to flop out of the pond and on the ground making it seem a bit more real next up we have a smaller change that is also quite welcome and that is the reduced time
You need to push against a pet before they start shaking and let you pass through in the past it was 1.5 seconds and now it will be 0.75 seconds I can’t remember the times I fainted because my
Dog or Cat decided to block the bed and leave me to sleep on the cold floor so this will save a lot of players from unwanted cold floors another new change that we have is concerning events now
Whenever a sound in a night event plays out it will also show an icon in the bottom left screen to indicate to the player that the sound is playing sometimes you don’t hear the sounds and you don’t even know that something somewhere in the game has changed the special orders request
Board has seen a change as well any special orders you have completed will now be marked by a small check mark icon and this will only affect the town special orders board with that you’ll know
Which ones you’ve done so far so you don’t have to repeat yourself all the time Robin shop also got an improvement where now when you want to build something on the farm the build menu will now show
How many days it will take robin to finish the building we also got a small change concerning Marne shop if you’re purchasing an animal for mne it will now Center the camera on the appropriate building for that animal which will save you time in scrolling around the farm until you get to the
Building as we did till now and the last one that we have is that inventory tool tips for food that gives you buff will now show the buff duration on the tool tip this is quite nice in
Knowing which food gives you the longest lasting Buffs so you know which one to choose choose and you won’t have to experiment to see the duration of it which is quite nice and that is the end of

thx this was helopful
I like the changes a lot and for the fishing now its gonna be a breeze.
I love how CA incorporated some of the UI info suite 2 features with showing the buff duration in game. This will be especially helpful for console players and those who can't mod their games.
For me, making the better crystalariums mod vanilla is so very much welcomed. I can’t begin to tell you how many gems I lost (namely diamonds swapping to something else) by accidentally misclicking lol
The specific fish bait is a welcomed treat as well. I used to use fish ponds as sort of a fish multiplier if you will but with this I can now get more fish for recipes a lot faster than waiting for the fish pond to refill.
Having the building center for the appropriate animal will save some scrolling time ther for sure.
And of course, not being able to pick up rugs with something on top of them is so very much welcomed.
I would’ve liked to have seen the signs get the same treatment as the crystalariums as I use a sign for the prismatic jelly quest to immortalize it and to remember I’ve done it.
A lot of the things I used to use mods for are no longer needed which is very nice.
Thanks for the video and I’m excited to discover more things as I play. Have a good one!
Which one of the Quality of Life changes that were added in the 1.6 update did You like the most?
