I missed yesterday, that’s fine. Today was the most unexpected turn of events, ended up just trying Stardew Valley in Japanese for fun. It’s actually pretty well done, and it looks promising. Whether it was a silly day and that’s it or the start of a regrettable new addiction, I do not know, but I’m looking forward to both. I’m actually somewhat excited to learn more vocabulary related to farming and the like and the day to day interactions with the villagers. I haven’t played Stardew Valley in many years, but it’s an amazing game, and I expect no less from the Japanese version.
