NOOO, you can't critisize my work and.. Wait, that looks nice!
Who's to say the planet SV takes place on isn't in fact a giant tomato? How dare you!
This felt like an Any Austin video in all the best ways. The style of chill, niche deep-dives is sweet as hell.
Traveling in Iceland I was amused that ostensibly pagan creatures in their folklore (elves, dwarves, etc.) were sometimes Christian. Maybe they were singing a hymn in a story or were said to have a church inside of a boulder. Probably this was added later after Christianity became the dominant religion. Maybe this allows Krobus to be in a non-pagan religion.

Biden yelling 'Yoba' took me out
I found this video . I’m trying to make a game because of UNDERTALE. This video is good. Thanks . Also I think your Pretty
yoba(ный в рот)
The game is really bad. Incredibly boring. Glorified walking simulator. Way overpraised.
It's a Farming Simulator, what did you expect?
Ahah, this video has some Any Austin vibes. :) I never realised how broken the economy was. I mean, I knew something was wrong when buying bread or just a salad is the equivalent to treating yourself to a fine restaurant, but I didn't realise it was this broken. Also, as someone already stated: can we talk about the Mayor's statue that made of solid gold?
Thanks for this! Some very helpful advice and tips!
1:57 actually, in hungarian tomato is called "paradicsom" which also means paradise (thus it could also technically mean garden of eden, but i think thats a bit of a far fetch) Do with that what you will, just thought i should share it
Quick note: Lewis visits buisnesses and collects taxes
I love your video. It is well put together and informative.
Are we sure that Yoba is the *only* religion in tardew Valley's world, though? It's the only one depicted, but there are other nations (such as the Gotoro Empire, which is the enemy nation in the war that Kent was fighting in), and maybe their culture (and religion) is very different.
Tomato = Pomodoro = Golden Pome. All that golden light transforms into a golden fruit-it makes perfect sense to me. 🙌🍅🙌
10:25 "... a game that came out nearly 10 years ago." That can't be. *frantically consults Google* Jesus Christ I'm old.
YOBA ‼️
Excellent video! My personal theory is that Yoba is specifically a sun god, or maybe even a personification of the sun itself. There are a number of things that point this. Obviously yellow/gold, the color most associated with Yoba, is also the same color most associated with sunlight. Less obvious is that the Book of Yoba refers to Yoba as "golden light," and in the creation story, that light is presumably what allows the seed to sprout, reinforcing the idea that it's meant to be sunlight. Plus, the Yoba Shirt is created by tailoring Solar Essence. My favorite point of evidence is that plaque you mentioned at the forge on Ginger Island. The forge and that plaque are remnants of an ancient dwarven civilization, but the dwarves we meet in-game never mention Yoba at all, so it's curious that the symbol would appear on the plaque. Notably though, a book in the museum called "Mysteries of the Dwarves" posits that an advanced alien civilization that eventually became the dwarves crash landed on the planet and was driven underground because they "simply could not survive in our sunlight." Not only does this suggest that the Yoba symbol on that plaque could be the ancient dwarves depicting the sun that drove them underground, but it could also imply that Yoba is not seen as a benevolent god by everyone since the ancient dwarves would have seen it as a threat to their survival. Them disliking Yoba could even have been a contributing factor in the war between dwarves and shadow people, since the shadow people apparently do worship Yoba if Krobus is any indication. Food for thought, anyway. Thanks for awakening my theorycrafting brain, haha. I love this stuff!
I don't even play the game, great presentation!
Pro tip, use Chat GPT for your code. It makes life a lot easier.
10:21 same 10:24 okay so we had different ideas but still, same
bullshit joke aside, i cant count the number of times i had people shut me up in some form cause i just go on and on about it last one was rainworld, bestie from highschool literally slapped a hand over my mouth cause i wouldnt shut up about rainworld.
SODAA
I'm sorry ICANT take this seriously, in Russian "yoba" (ёба) is a swear word and an early 2010s meme (YOBA-face) lmaoo
Hey hey! I was wondering if Gamemaker had reached out to you as well... :)

Detroit: Become Human. I Was A Teenage Exocolonist. Life Is Strange. The Cosmic Sisterhood. The Quarry. Stardew Valley. Horizon: Zero Dawn. I have spent hours upon hours on videogames like Fortnite and Overwatch 2. But I’ve only truly connected to the ones listed above, and more in a similar vein that aren’t currently coming to mind. What I would give to create something like the games that have inspired me- games that are part of who I am today- is nothing short of my soul.
Wow. I've been coding for nearly four decades and currently trying to learn a microsoft full stack application and I keep wondering why I've not really learning after 18 months when until now that's been my strength. I recently figured it out - it's basically what you said about tutorials only working if you take the time to mess around with it.. That's me - I'll figure out a JQuery problem and then go back to how to make razor write that JQuery to the page and I never LEARNED from it, I got it working and moved on cos "must deliver!". *I couldn't agree with you more, if you read up on something you'll only learn when you push yourself trying things out - where were you 18 months ago!!* 😂
So the religion in Stardew Valley is built around player convenience, much like the religion for most D&D games. In that, I mean that in D&D games, the gods tend to be built around cleric subclasses whereas in Stardew Valley, the featured god was built around farming (or general earth and fertility worship)
Wonder if the next game will have Yoba references in it as well. With it in mind that the "sin" of this game being going against the planet's wishes, it would be weird to find out that a link to The Haunted Chocolatier is their world's "devil" is an avaricious Willy Wonka-esque character hellbent on unethical, unsustainable, soulless mass production.
Im new to the channel, thinking of starting mine own! I just had a question for you. Do you listen back to your own audio or just wing it? Because I did a test record with my own voice and I cant stand it! I went bright red thinking how embarrassing it feels to listen to yourself talk. Do you have any tips for this?
As someone who's been making vids for 10 years now, you'll get over it. Trust me, you're way more critical of your voice than anyone else. When you look in the mirror what do you think? That's me, right? When people see you in the street, they don't think that, you're just another person. Sometimes, insignificance is a good thing. Same holds for your voice. Work with it. Settle with it. Everyone who edits their vids has to listen to hours upon hours if their voice. Sometimes I listen to a take I did, and just repeat that in a mocking voice. Don't worry too much, you'll be fine
@@adityakhanna113 Thanks mate! I needed to hear that. My Birthday is coming up so ill ask the family for a good mic. Do you have any suggestions?

*undertale is a horribly made game* were talking bout the same guy who made a skeleton annoy his brother with ouns

@@blrwllm4357 Thank you!
Demitrius def using Yoba's name in vain
@@wildernns LMAO
Thanks for explaining something I was somewhat curious about in more detail than I'd ask for :3
Stardew Valley is one of those Games that just keeps giving.
Terrible game. Very boring and overpraised.
"Stardew valley was made by one person" - don't forget the most important developer and the real hero, his wife

I never knew about the note on George and Evelyn's night stand! I love that I've played so much of Stardew Valley, and I didn't know about most of this.
Thank Yoba 🤘
When you wonder why Eric took 10 years developing Stardew Valley you find videos like this one... How in the world did bro construct a whole RELIGION for his FARMING GAME????
If you think a single religion is an impressive amount of world building for an indie game, I invite you to look into the absurdly complex world of dwarf fortress.
Lmao it was hilarious how you just shrunk away at the end
