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  

The list for the quality of life changes in the  new 1.6 update of stardew Valley what do you think   which one of these were you looking forward to the  most and which one you didn’t expect at all let me

  1. 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!
