The recent discussion on fanfic gripes about how Shane is always paired off with Perky Perky Sunshine Farmers really struck me because I do agree with it on some level. It's irritating to see that dynamic play out repeatedly, in the same way, and Shane would have an easier time if the farmer was also depressed or recovering from depression as they're going about their farm work and reaching out to him. Plus, I feel like the Perky Sunshine Farmer concept works hilariously well when paired with Haley. She's such an utter brat at first, so having someone who's just unwavering cheerful and happy to see her, despite her trying to ignore them or point out how gross their grass stains are, would probably throw her off balance. And realizing that it's genuine, between helping her find her grandma's bracelet on the beach and the time they got photos at Marnie's farm of the horses, would be something... Kind of oddly gratifying to her? It works well with her trying to be just less mean, less of her trying to impress the farmer and more getting the idea of "well, if Farmer Jane can be cheerful after plowing an entire farm of cabbages and dealing with sixteen pigs, I can try to be a little happier today while I try to look for places to get good photos." Also, additional bonus: when she realizes, as she watches Emily interact with the farmer after they're dating and seeing how they just bounce off each other with exuberance over small things and have so much excitement over just being alive, just suddenly going pale, picking up one of the couch cushions, taking it to her darkroom and screaming herself silly because she realizes she has fallen in love with someone who is exactly like her annoying sister, what on Yoba's green earth.
Hey, speaking of Shane, I can't remember if I saw it here or somewhere else, but does anyone know of a mod to get rid of/replace the kegs in his part of the house if you marry him?
There's a few - Spouse Rooms Redesigned gives them all a tweak to make them more room-like, while Clean Shane's Room only changes Shane's. There's Another Shane's Room mod as well, it has some different choices of what elements are kept and what removed, while still cleaning away the mess.
Put it in the hatchery! You get a baby dinosaur that lays more Dino eggs so you can complete the museum AND make 500 extra dollars every week or so!
Making a new building set! /o/ This is the fully upgraded and repaired version. First upgrade has the side extension only and a round window where the fancy long one is. I'll also add some interesting damage and weathering, and the seasonal version will have flowering vines I still need to come up with a color scheme, figure out what I want to do with the porch, and figure out if I want to do anything special with the greenhouse. I also intend on making at least a shed to match; for anything I don't make I'm personally going to be using the farm buildings from this set.
Oh yeah no it's going in the incubator as soon as I can upgrade to the Big Coop. Right now it's chilling in one of my chests tho lol. I figure it's been buried in a river for a few million years, another couple weeks in a chest isn't gonna hurt it XD
So I've been playing this lately...super late on the bandwagon I know. But I've decided to start a new modded game and... This isn't as bad as when I try to mod Bethesda games so feel free to suggest some good mods
I just discovered upload.farm, so here is my pride and joy http://upload.farm/1CMoG0 Three years on and I still live in the woods. All of my animals are named after Transformers, except for the cat. I still need two blue chickens for Soundwave and Thundercracker. Spoiler: big image
