    The fish in Stardew Valley are intelligent enough to request improvements to their homes. They will tell you what would make their home more comfortable. Some just want some pizza to liven up the place. Some, like the Therm-fish, don't deserve this life of luxury. But don't worry....
    You can eat them raw.

      Not sure why is it weirder for fish to ask for another species of fish when it's normal for a lot of types of fish to eat other fish. Asking for coffee beans, pizza, quartz, that's the things that don't make sense to me.
      Do people hear fish eating fish and inmediately think cannibalism? Even though they're different species of fish?

    • @sassy_sasarai4090
      @sassy_sasarai4090 2 роки тому +20

      - everyone likes pizza
      - quartz let’s them decorate. If the fish can be in a gang, maybe they are also into new aged healing.
      - if they want to brew coffee down there, they should be allowed to
      -it’s fascinating that you can talk to the fish but not the skeletons, mummies, or non-krobus shadow people.
