"It Finally Happened": Stardew Valley Player Showcases An Adorable Moment '11 Years' In The Making
After quite some time, one player saw a rare sight — their ducks swimming in a pond. Ducks in are a popular animal on the farm for players to pet and cultivate, but they rarely swim, making this a big moment for the players waiting for their ducks to act like ducks.
Redditor RikkertPaul posted a picture of their rare find on the subreddit, much to the acclaim of the rest of the community. Ducks have been able to swim in the farm's ponds since Update 1.5, but they strangely don't wade in the water often. However, the ducks don't need to swim to thrive on the farm, but fans certainly love to see the ducks lounge in the pond.
As RikkertPaul explained, this was their main save and they finally got to see their ducks swim after 11 in-game years. Some other fans chimed in on the thread, wondering how they could get their ducks to swim too. One piece of advice came from Redditor Dronxha who said the ducks will swim if the player pets them every day. However, RikkertPaul explained they were doing that and not getting any results. Other fans may have cracked the code by placing their duck coops next to the pond with just a single tile between the ducks and a body of water.
A Stardew Valley beginner asked veteran players what they wish they'd known when they started the game, and the community delivers its best tips.
Along with the duck miracle, fans in the thread shared that they were impressed with RikkertPaul committing 11 years to one farm. Unlike some players, they explained they like to play expansive games, like, on a single save. With so much new content in Update 1.6, RikkertPaul has plenty of surprises to find alongside their ducks finally taking a swim. Update 1.6 added many hidden details to that were asked for by the community.
As seen by the sheer joy of seeing ducks swimming in a pond, wholesomeness is part of the charm. The cozy farm life sim allows players to carefully build a charming life and engage with the quirky townsfolk who inhabit. Behind all that
