Summary
AStardew Valleyplayer that’s already dedicated over 400 hours of playtime to the game has made a discovery about how gates in fences work. Fellow fans are surprised, with many sharing that they also didn’t know this detail aboutStardew Valley’s fence option, while others are expressing surprise at discovering the opposite through the user’s discovery.
Stardew Valleymay seem like a simple game going into it, but it’s the kind of title that fans can easily find themselves dedicating hundreds or even thousands of hours to. The indie game has received regular updates that add new content, which has helped to extend its lifespan, andStardew Valleyhas a prominent modding scene. However, the game also gives players the freedom to do play as they see fit, which means that some details go unnoticed for a long time.
Stardew Valleyfan agent_mick shared on theStardew Valleysubreddit that they had no idea that building double gates in fences was a possibility. They had apparently been using single gates for all four hundred hours of their gameplay. However, it seems there are two sides to this coin, as a number of players in the comments - some with up to double the hours agent_mick has spent in the game - admitted they didn’t know that single gates were an option, and had only been using double gates this whole time.
Fences aren’t required to playStardew Valleyefficiently, so it’s possible that many fans haven’t spent much time building or investigating them. Double gates were added to the game back in version 1.4, which came out nearly five years ago. Adding a double gate isn’t necessary by any means, especially since horses can pass through single gates. However, it adds one more option for creatingaesthetically pleasing farms inStardew Valley, and gives players one more reason to keep exploring Pelican Town and the surrounding areas.
