After making a major mistake in Stardew Valley, Reddit user Goldencain1410 asked fellow farmers to share their similar mistakes that have turned into pet peeves—but that they can’t stop making. Goldencain1410 brought up this topic because they’ve been struggling with some recurring errors in their playthrough that seem unstoppable.

The Most Common Mistake in Stardew Valley Is an Obvious One

The comments under Goldencain1410’s Reddit post reveal a common and relatable mistake: forgetting to heal on time or at all while exploring the deeper floors of the Mines. There are lots of things players need to know about the Mines in Stardew Valley, but due to the game’s minimal guidance, it’s easy for players to overlook the need for HP regeneration both before and during their mining expeditions. Other frequent mistakes mentioned by players include forgetting NPC birthdays, wasting high-quality crops before the Luau event, and missing out on eagerly anticipated seasonal crops.

This isn’t the first time Stardew Valley fans have shared their biggest mistakes on Reddit. Recently, another user asked fellow players to reveal their secret blunders in the game to help them feel better about losing a rare Dinosaur Egg they found after three in-game years. The comments on that post revealed that players sometimes end up cooking their Legendary items, misplacing valuables, and even gifting villagers with precious items that they don’t like. The array of mistakes in Stardew Valley seems endless, yet for many these blunders are indeed an integral part of the game’s charm.
