Stardew Valley

Hidden mod

This mod has been set to hidden

Hidden at 12 Jun 2020, 7:08PM by farmerjack for the following reason:
In light of what is currently happening in the world, I am hiding all of my work until such a time that I can review for inclusiveness, tone, and intersectionality. A particular concern I have with my own work is the genderbending functionality that I added to the dialogue expansion mods I have published for male bachelors. While most of this was removed with the 1.4 update last year, there is still some legacy code that needs scrubbing. I recognize, however, that this functionality may be meaningful for some players, yet I am unsure how best to implement this in an inclusive way. For instance, to a male cis-hetero farmer, changing all of the bachelors into bachelorettes decreases the diversity in Stardew Valley; to an LGBTQIA+ farmer, changing all of the bachelors into bachelorettes may increase the diversity in Stardew Valley. Further still, it may prove additionally prudent to provide a gender-neutral option as well. I would like to discuss this with the SDV community on Discord and in particular try to obtain the advice and insight of the Diverse Stardew Valley mod team. To be abundantly clear, I support all efforts to increase diversity in all situations and I want to ensure that my work reflects this.
