Requirements For Completing The Stardew Valley Perfection Tracker
Just How Difficult Is It?
What makes achieving 100% inStardew Valleyso difficult? In a nutshell, the trouble is with the time required to finish everything and the luck players need for some tasks. Perfecting the game requires the player to max out every level and relationship, find, fish, and farm all the collectibles, and craft every item and recipe in the game. While some tasks are fairly straightforward, like findingevery golden walnut inStardew Valley,others are trickier to complete because they rely more on luck and timing.
It’s also easy to miss some things if players are not actively working toward completion, as one unfortunate player discovered when they found theirselfstuck at 99% completion because of a missing festival. 3DSarge cites the golden clock as being one of the most difficult parts of finally finishing their quest: “Grinding that 10 mil for the Golden Clock was a lot of work.”
All the elements combined make achieving perfection inStardew Valleydifficult and time-consuming. For player 3DSarge, the journey is far from over: “Now to wait until the Switch gets the new update and I have to start all over.”
