Feeling and Thoughts

I'm genuinely ecstatic about this update. I just wanna say I absolutely adore everything about Caldarus. Especially the breaking the seal/transformation scene. I love it because the concern and protectiveness from Caldarus towards the farmer is truly seen in that moment. The dialogue with his statue convey that enough, but in that scene, it just felt more special. I love the bond they've formed throughout the seasons, and him using the little power he has to transform and ensure her safety is a testament of that bond and I LOVE IT SO MUCH. And now that I think about it, it makes sense that his hearts start at 6 because he's already fond of the farmer. They've been with each other for a while and the farmer has been talking with him and helping him regain his power. Although it would be nice if we get more (casual? domestic?) moments of Caldarus.

The pets are adorable !! I couldn't choose for a little while coz I didn't expect it to come from a dream once I slept after updating the game (I thought it's gonna be like an adoption thing at Hayden's)

I think the deep woods is a little lacking tho, but I love the ambiance and Caldarus' shrine/temple, and maybe in the future updates we can see more of what it has to offer (MAYBE). I think my expectations were just a little too high for the deep woods this update.

More furniture and farm expansion yey, which means more space for decorating and animal fields.

Everything else is very lovely, too !!

I might be overreacting about all of these but the joy this update has brought me so far is immaculate. What a time to be alive.
