Before I add these, would you mind putting all the ones for the same platform, even if it's less active? I added all the ones I know of so it feels weird to suddenly be more exclusive about it. I'm aware there are some posts here that probably have communities on other instances that aren't listed, but I don't expect each submitter to actively know about every single community for their game. The reason I'm requesting this of you is because you actually went and found all the communities, and I want to include the ones you chose not to submit due to size as well. If you're not willing to go get the ones you chose not to submit, I'll go hunt them down myself, but to be honest I'd rather not so I'm making the request of you.
Added. Not a fan of gacha titles myself whatsoever, but gacha titles are still games and this is a list to help others. Have you tried posting in various “new community” magazines like https://lemmy.world/c/newcommunities?
Any shovelware with lots of bugs, continuity errors, and English language fails. I’m the type of person who believes in “so bad, it’s good” (or at least so bad, it’s funny). Warning for TVTropes link.
I actually have a mod for Stardew where the other NPCs have relationship progression with each other if I don’t get in the way!
I’ve been doing a challenge run on Stardew where I never ever engage in combat or go into the mines. Going pretty well, actually, except for the part where I get stuck on acquiring any quartz. Aside from that I think I completed the rest of the Community Center and a lot of what the game has to offer. It’s possible to avoid combat and still have game to play.
Still, don’t force yourself to play if you don’t want to—this isn’t an “I addressed all your concerns about why you dislike the game, so you have to go play it now with the mods I mentioned for your dislike to be valid anymore” type comment (and I didn’t address the part about Harvest Moon requiring you to develop relationships to progress and unlock things while Stardew doesn’t absolutely require relationships to progress… although relationships will also unlock things). I’m not trying to insist that you have to try Stardew with 384828 different permutations of mods before you’re allowed to say it’s not for you.
