Stardew Valley Creator Adds Mandatory 7-Day Honeymoon Period in Latest Update
- Stardew Valley update 1.6 adds a 7-day "honeymoon period" for newly married NPCs where they can't stay in bed all day due to being upset
- The update is meant to address complaints from players about their new spouses not wanting to do anything besides lie in bed after getting married
- Creator Eric Barone joked that instead of a lavish honeymoon, the update imposes a mandatory 7-day period where spouses can't sleep away their depression
- Other update 1.6 changes include edits to tree chopping, harvesting crops, sword combat, and being able to pass through pets faster
- Barone says he'll likely never "officially close the book" on updating the popular farming sim Stardew Valley
