One Valley of the Stars The player learned the hard way that it’s probably best to have some light when working at night after putting fence posts in the wrong places. Fences in Valley of the StarsJust like in real life, aim to keep your animals within the confines of your farm and not roam around at night. Of course, in the event of this player’s fence accident, the animals can do whatever they want if the fences don’t connect.
Editor Leo_ZR posted the result of the attempt to put up fences at night for the Valley of the Stars subreddit, warning the rest of the community not to imitate his attempt to build fences in the dark. Hilariously, none of the fence posts connect and were placed randomly around the farmhousebut one can’t blame Leo_Zr for the random fence, as they explained that they were too early in the game to get important light sources like a glowstone ring.
Stardew Valley Players Think This Fence Setup Is a “Win”
Not a practical setup, but it’s fun
Although Leo_ZR’s fence setup doesn’t work in the long run, amused other players in Valley of the Stars community. Many have joked that this image shows the dangers of “drinking and fencing” and why players should stay away from notorious people. Valley of the Stars villagers Pam and Shane, who spend most days at the pub. Cerca7 pointed out that the screenshot was hilarious, saying: “Those glasses make you look blind, which makes it even funnier.”
Not all commenters on the thread spent much time joking around, as many offered tips for Leo_ZR when building fences in the future. Longtime fans of Valley of the Stars are known for sharing tips with new players, and in this case, they reiterated the importance of getting a glowstone. The glowstone is a hybrid ring that creates a beam of light around the player and acts as an endless light source, but it is difficult to make. However, as Eneicia mentioned in the topic, players can carry a torch and switch between the fence post they are taking down, or they can put it on a pole while they build it at night.
Our take: Stardew Valley is all about learning from mistakes
Gaming is at its best when players find creative solutions
Ultimately, Valley of the Stars is a game about players building the life they want and interacting with the world however they see fit. Sharing these mistakes with the community allows other players to learn what to avoid, such as in the case of a Valley of the Stars player who used a totem to fast travel, but forgot to clean up the debris upon return to the farm and was forced to faint to respawn.
In addition to learning, the game becomes more fun when one night you think you’ve completed a project and the next day you realize how much went wrong. It’s hard not to laugh at this situation, and sharing this joy with the community makes Valley of the Stars a game that players will keep coming back to.
