TIL, after years of playing Stardew Valley on-off, that Pierre apparently has quite the (well-deserved) hatedom.

    He’s a petite bourgeois

    Stardew is literally a petite bourgeois fantasy role play game. You inherit property from your grandpa in some cutesy pastoral town where everyone is a small business Kulak. The proletariat culture of the towns mining past totally erased by these upper middle class yeoman larpers who probably moved into the area when all the mining jobs dried up.

    There should be a mod where the Red Guards come into Stardew and forcibly collectivize all your Kulak ass property to grow wheat for the proletariat.

    It is a fun game tho I get to make such a cute farm!!!

      Unironically I would adore being given strict demands on how much produce they need and then trying to accomplish that for the glory of the state. Would make for a fun change of pace rather than just growing a quadrillion star fruits and turning them into wine.

        You are now head of the Stardew Valley labor camp in the Ferngill Republic, but Ferngill Republic is a fascist country currently at war with the Socialist Republic of Gotoro (smeared in Ferngillian propaganda as “Gotoro Empire”). Your task is to grow crops to feed Ferngillian troops who are currently waging a war of annihilation in Gotoro lands.

          It would be so weird to see it become a papers please, where you need to decide which people can work on the farm, and if you get the spies you can have your produce poisoning the troops, or diverting excess to the Gotoron troops…and it culminates in air strikes on the farm and a tank battle across the village.

      Daily reminder that the country Stardew Valley is in is currently at war with another country to its southern border, and Kent almost certainly got PTSD from shooting too many Gotoro kids in the face.
