Don't get me wrong - loved it and played it incessantly for weeks (many hours each day) but just found I reached a certain point where there was no new content and I was just developing the best goddam watering system imaginable. When you're sketching out sprinkler layouts in CAD software and making spreadsheets of berry yields you've gone too far (strawberries/iridium sprinklers/fertiliser etc)
I'm quite a fan of Stardew Valley but it's hard for me to stop my min-maxing side to kick in and enjoy the laid-back pace. Similar to Animal Crossing really. I think that's what separates those who love it from those who don't.
