"Rent your own server"

Postby 524u » Tue Jan 06, 2026 4:16 pm

- Your own paid server to play with friends
- Stardew Valley players will stop complaining about PvP because they'll be able to play on their own paid server
- Jorbtar makes money
- Loftar doesn't share his ugly server-side code

Basically, somewhere in the "Shop" section, add a "rent your own server" button, like for $10 a month for 4 players, or something like that.

i have suggested this 100 times. they say they will never do it. lotar even said in a dev stream when i brought it up, "this game will only be fun with other player." i was like, " minecraft and stardew are fun with just one other friend." but they both say it will never happen.

i even said i would pay 50$ for my own world, on facebook. and they still say no =/

Just wait for Oddihaven private server. I bet it's in beta 3 phase right now.

because you're not just the recipient of FUN, you're also the source of FUN to other players. You paying for the safety of your own world doesn't cover for your absence as a prey and target.

um yes in fact it does. playing solo no one would be prey to anyone. i dont play for assholes to have fun attacking my place or your my toon. who cares if those kind of players stop playing. they contribute very little compared to those who would pay to play with only the players they choose.

Pvp games suxk. Thats the truth.
Look lotka volterra equations. Losing is fun, but to monsters, devils demons whatever. Not someone you perceive as sweaty tryhard (no counterplay). HnH with premium pve islands would make more senese (popul2tion wise).

which defeats the idea of this game: it is a BAD thing when noone is a prey.

yeah that's one of the reasons why you play (not YOUR reason tho)

devs do. You should be already aware that toxic autistic retards are the core community of this game since forever, this acidic sludge been boiling down for years and is a concentrated bile of inhumanity now. And they pay and contribute, just not in ways you see valuable being a meek PvE player. We normies have all been there, you either accept this reality and toughen up in some ways, or you quit. There will be no safe pve hafen, and that's not my opinion but what devs say again and again.
