I think we all strain ourselves too much trying to aim for perfection, so I’m going to strain myself even more to do the opposite! To my knowledge, there’s no recorded attempt at getting to the walnut room on Ginger Island at minimum perfection percentage, and that’ll be our goal today!

  1. Imagine you have a perfection save file in Stardew Valley and get The Living Hat in that save file, and the next day, Qi gives a recipe to make The Living Hat in case you like lose it or for some reason need more Living Hats.

  2. You did more trying to get a low % than me trying to get as much as I can 😭 I guess trying to get animals is not a good goal

  3. So sorry it's late, 3 months ago, but my theory is that the 101 is the 100 +1 you give to the bird. I don't think it counts that one you give it towards the door

  4. Wow! I hesitate to leave this comment because you are currently at 669, and that is cool :), but just wanted to say that this was fascinating, and I truly enjoyed it. Thank you for all for your work and insight! Much love.

  5. i got 2 LIVING HAts and i didn’t know they were rare so i sold them cause i thought they were common! btw i sold them cause it was so early game i didn’t have a single inv upgrade

  6. i'm a relatively new stardew player (within the last year) and i had no idea the living hat was rare because it was the first hat i ever got in my first game

  7. Huh, interesting, just as in real life, to be as incompetent as possible, you need quite some competence, otherwise you'll just fail to make things as incompetent as possible just by chance xD

  8. If you had, instead of skipping days, used those days to be dilligent about scything/hoeing down any more new trees and seeds, you could have perhaps avoided getting locked out of sections of your farm.

  9. Watching this for the umpteen-millionth time and realized that when you gave Sandy the pearl before buying those 10 coconuts she responds with her "Ooo i love getting flowers from the valley" response. Does that mean she only has 1 response for loved items? Interesting.
