Tired of trudging through the same old dialogue Luau after Luau? Wishing you could win some well-deserved brownie points with an important politician? Fear not, my fellow overworked farmers: the "Governor Expansion Mod" has the answer to all your problems!

This mod aims to provide the player with a greater opportunity to connect with an NPC that they could not otherwise encounter or establish a friendship with. Starting in Year 1 and ending in Year 16, the Governor will slowly come to acknowledge, appreciate and even cherish the relationship built between he and the player.

For fans of the Harvest Moon series, this mod contains numerous references to Stardew Valley's spiritual predecessor. From Mineral Town to Magical Melody to A Wonderful Life, the Governor has plenty of secrets to spill about your former favorite farming sims! His exact relation to these places, and the characters therein, however, will for now remain a mystery...

FEATURES:
- Multiple years of unique dialogue, from your first to your sixteenth Luau
- A slow-developing friendship with an NPC that cannot otherwise be befriended
- Opinions, perspectives and secrets about Pelican Town's residents, along with tidbits of worldbuilding information
- References to the Gourmet from Harvest Moon, upon whom the Governor was based, for longtime fans of the series

LANGUAGES:
- The original mod was written in English.
- A Chinese translation has been provided here by BH199256!
- If anyone would like to aid in potential translations, please let me know!

MOD COMPATABILITY:
- This mod will, unfortunately, overwrite any of the Governor's dialogue from gizzymo's Canon-Friendly Dialogue Expansion mod.
- Other than that, however, this mod should not interrupt or interfere with any other known mod!
- Should you wish for the Gourmet references to be more obvious, I recommend downloading Taelende's "Governor to Gourmet" mod, too!
