the way the author calls the bachelorettes' trauma baggage and it's a negative, but the bachelor's baggage makes them interesting literally feels like the "when youre so misogynistic youre just gay" 😭😭😭
I kid you not, I once went on a date with someone who described herself as "unfortunately heterosexual."
Second-worst first date ever.
@SimuLord Damn, now im curious what the first worst one was. (If you're comfortable sharing)
Yeah my first thought when Seanie asked that was: he’s a misogynist Seanie.
@@SimuLordBRO PLEASE TELL US WHAT NUMBER 1 WAS! I DESPERATELY NEED THIS INFO
@@SimuLord i'm also curious about number 1 worst date? of course, if you're comfortable
Remember kids: if the girl has issues that’s bad, but if the guy has issues that’s good
Guy has issues? Personal growth arc love to see it.
Girl? Troublesome homewrecker. Needs to be more obedient. B a g g a g e.
I feel like the fact that you get the more intimate setting and moment with Shane in the cutscenes by the lake makes it seem more like you develop a connection with Shane than with Leah. I don't think his problems make him a better candidate or agree with anything the article says about her; I completely agree with your opinion. I think that's the reason the writer felt a connection tho.
It's odd how the writer compares the different characters and their baggage
also goth girl with bad relationship with parents is bad, same but male is good.
Yay! Sexism!
Ok
I feel like this list was like
When women have trauma 🤬
When men have trauma 🧍
When women don't have trauma and submit to being your housewife no questions asked 😍
More like when womens trauma expresses in obedience because they'd fear for their life if u get angry with them 😍
Not even a housewife since he loves Emily for staying employed.
And Elliot is the worse bachelor because he doesn't have enough trauma and baggage. 😂 You didn't get to save him!
Penny has trauma, she just doesn't express it outwardly by asking for anything or expressing herself to her partner in a way that bothers them. She feels the need to work, has trouble asserting herself, and her mom is clearly at least emotionally abuseive
@@mrsunderstood8141yeah but i hate how sensitive she is in cutscenes and how you can't ever be honest with her unless you wanna lose points, very weird to me. and you're the bad guy if you bring up how pushing someone who's on a wheelchair without permission isn't okay. i like her a lot sometimes, but i would never marry or get w her
The two steps to falling in love
1. Be employed
2. Have no BAGGAGE
Damn 😔
Unless you’re Shane apparently?
@@sakurasensations4786But Shane is a guy and that's different and misterious or something
U forgot the crucial step 3: be a man
Unless you’re a dude lol bc shane and Alex’s baggage is hot ig
The author decided to make their misogyny everybody's problem 🙄
Can't stand when people hate Pam for being an alcoholic then fawn over Shane.
Right ?! Me, I hate them both equally cause I can’t stand alcoholism and I’m consistent:)
I think the difference between the two is that Pam has no motivation to really improve her alcoholism, and leaves her daughter with all the responsibilities. Meanwhile, Shane knows his alcoholism is ruining his life, and thanks to the player, is able to get said help and is willing to get help.
This has nothing to do with misogyny???????
@@jadenpoo2918EXACTLY!
I hate Pam, not because of her addiction, but because i accidentally gave her a prismatic shard
God forbid a woman in an abusive relationship escapes said abusive relationship!!!!!
how dare you have a past and have existed as a person before the man you have to submit to
This article was 100% written by Kel
I'm guessing the author has some strong opinions about no-fault divorce.
"Stop with the baggage, you sound like a TSA employee" made me laugh more than it probably should've
is that morrissey i see....
@@em-pi7uo yee i am da real morrissey from the snmiths...
11:04 if anyone is wondering
@@japanpanda2179 thank you
dude shane has the most baggage in my opinion- alcohol problems, self harm, depression. and YET hes a "great spouse" BECAUSE OF HIS BAGGAGE after they just explained Leah is trash because of her baggage. TF?
(edit: lol i know ppl dont like this but MOM IM FAMOUS)
I think, for him, the way they live with that baggage is too different. He seems obsessed with a stable job. Leah doesn't have one but follows her dreams while Shane works at Joja and doesn't have any.
That and also Leah's "baggage" is her having an ex. Who's also right so Leah is a stupid woman apparently, idk, I don't get it.
it's the misogyny
It's * *relationship* * baggage. Women are supposed to stay single until marriage.
@@xxsniperkittykatxxAh yes, the catch 22 of women.
My only problem with Maru is her hair sucks compared to the earlier versions of her.
Like imagine how cute her nurse outfit would look with that natural hair.
Otherwise S tier.
I looked up her old portraits just to see what you were talking about and OMG YOURE SO RIGHT 😭 robbed fr
Maru is biracial but as her development went on, she started to look like "white chick who spends all day in the sun" rather than half-Black.
Although I suppose, since I live in the next town over from where ConcernedApe made the game (he's from Auburn, WA; I live in Kent), I suppose it's understandable. Until recently, that part of south King County outside Seattle was very, very white, with maybe a few Asian people mixed in for "diversity." Genrification in Seattle proper has changed that in the past few years, but when CA was growing up, that wouldn't have been the case.
@@SimuLord As much as I'd much much much prefer the other hair design, there are a ton of biracial people with straight hair. It's pretty random what features a child comes out with. 3 of my cousins are mixed half-Black/half-white and 2 of them have straight hair while the youngest has extremely curly hair.
(With that being said, ConcernedApe did clearly have a curly haired Maru in mind early on so that point is whatever)
Pretty, not that textured. Doesn't even look like Stardew Valley art but Modded Stardew.
I added the DSV mod on Maru and her natural hair just looks absolutely gorgeous. I also like her seasonal outfits
I've said it once and I'll say it again, this article was so bad it made me want to marry Leah out of spite despite me being gay
When did you say that before?
@@thermophile1695 In the previous cycle of the universe. His soul didn't drink from the River Lethe so he remembers his past life.
@@DanteTorn
Living with an entire reality's worth of memories must truly be a burden. I apologize for my hubris.
Beard couple
The only thing stronger than being gay: Spite
This guy's rankings have a sort of... should i say misogynistic vibe? Like the guys that have bagage hes ok with unless its Harvey in which case he says its because he isn't brave enough. And all of the girls that have baggaged he complained about. Especially since his number one is Emily and his main reasoning being "she has no baggage and will do what you want to" which is so weird.
So according to him its only ok to have baggage if you're a dude who is a "wimp".
Proving that misogyny is not only harmful to men. Like, I’m not a huge fan of Harvey, but men should be allowed to be honest about their fears
@@kaydeningham4148 You should google misogyny, you clearly don't know the meaning.
@@calmcuke6865if you switch the “not only” to “also” their point works much better, so I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt
No😮
No bc why does everyone hate Elliot, he's so sweet and caring especially when you get to know him. Plus he's one of the few spouses who actually keep following their dreams and carrers so I dont feel guilty about marrying him
There is the one scene on the boat where he kisses the farmer without consent that led to people not liking him, but that's about it to my knowledge
Edit: y’all I’m not saying I agree, I’ve just heard people say it before haha. I couldn’t care less
It's probably the way that most of his character is about him and not both of you.
@@Harudodo Doesn't the farmer do the same in Haley's 10 heart cutscene?
@@elledayooo yeah but it's okay because you're dating I believe is the reason people would give. I'm just a person who roomies with Krobus tho
@@jackiesharp018 which doesn't make sense because you're already dating when Elliott kisses you too soooo
i can smell the misogyny off the writer of this article. if women have problems that's BAGGAGE, but if men have (worse) problems, that's an opportunity to grow and bond uwu
road work ahead, yeah, i sure hope it does
Woman who has any depth at all: BAGGAGE
Man that’s a suicidal alcoholic: omg I can fix him
It also kinda undermines that the guys problems are problems? It's all around just off, whoever this writer is needs to be checked out
@@CarlMax001 that's a perspective I hadn't even considered. The article does treat the women's problems as unsolvable and more trouble that its worth, but if its a guy then its totally worth working to fix!
IMAGINE thinking Leah has the most baggage when there is A LITERAL ALCOHOLIC for grabs. Also Kel definitely wrote this article lol or at least someone who has a problem with their ex cause they were actually abussive to their ex lol
b-b-b-b-but she's a woman!!!! that makes her baggage clearly so much worse than any man's!!!!!!! why can't women be perfect and quiet and not have any emotional baggage to bring into a relationship because a partner is not supposed to help you and support you!!!!!! /s
i think the main reason on why emily's story line and hearth event dont have an ounce of romance in it is purely because she wasnt even supposed to be a romancable character which is funny
That's make sense! I like Emily, but in my first play I just think she supposed to be a quirky friend that could have a connection with, juninos and other magic stuff
Which sucks considering she’s the love of my goddamn life
I originally married Emily and I just wasn’t into her pretty soon after. She doesn’t interact in any different way off of the farm, and sometimes doesn’t speak to you at all if you spoke to her that morning. I ended up marrying an original romance option out of curiosity and those same problems weren’t there. Likely a coding oversight.
@@endiecutie06frfr
This guy's fav character is Clint, I guarantee it.
This article was ghostwritten BY Clint.
this guy thinks clint should've gotten emily and will pull a whole nice guy bullet list to prove it
Oh god for real
@@rachelfoote9515article was ghost co-written by kel and clint
Honestly a minute and a half in and I'm already laughing at the article. "Leah has the most baggage of all the marriage candidates" can't wait to hear what they have to say about shane, a character who has heart events about how he's an alcoholic and one of the heart events is literally the player walking up to him drunk wondering if there's any reason to not un-alive himself off a cliff, yeah Leah's the one with the baggage issues.
How did you enjoy the rest of the video 😂 Shane and Alex’s baggage? Hot. Opportunity for growth. Overcoming adversity. Leah’s abusive ex? She sucks for that, tbh.
The "baggage" is basically that she had an ex boyfriend. 😂 Used goods. And she didn't even submit to his wishes!
4:28 Its a thing in medical ethics you're not supposed to date your patients due to the potiental abuse of the power imbalance. You're not a regular patient of his though outside of emergency care and as the only doctor in town he doesn't really have the option to have someone else take over care to avoid the issue, so it's a very grey area imo.
but since Harvey is the only doctor in town he couldn't date anyone since they're all his patients and Maru is his employee
I'd argue that the farmer who wields a sword basically the same size as them and regularly fights all kinds of monsters with no medical treatment would be the _least_ vulnerable to a power imbalance
@@bugbear2357 oh no I agree this is definitely not a scenario to worry about. I just wanted to put out there how medical ethics would approach the situation. There not being another provider to help with conflict of interest cases does kinda tie his hands and this is in no way Harvey being a bad person, its just a scenario that would need to be approached differently if he did have options (ie just have another doctor treat you if and when it comes up)
i had thought they were referring to the implications throughout his dialogue that he had killed (i guess killed is not the right word there,,he couldn't save them??) a patient before and that was unethical, but i'd never considered that before...but also yeah, if he were to follow that guideline he would literally just be single forever
You actually are his patient, one of his cutscenes is your checkup
Still though, going by epics, he shouldn't be allowed to date literally anybody, which I don't really think is fair
@@elizabethb4168 fair enough, I forgot that. Yeah, I'm not saying he shouldn't date anyone. Medical ethics assumes there's a person to hand off care to and if there isn't, you're kind of in a lurch. It just needs to be a consideration to watch out for in his scenario to make sure he doesn't overstep
literally seems like his criteria is “how good of an option is this person for an arranged marriage with my kid” - it only matters how inoffensive and financially stable they are 😂
The take is basically: If you're male, having baggage and trauma makes you interesting and your woman is supposed to work around it and help you overcome your issues. But if you're female, you should not have any drama or baggage because that's just a burden on your man and you should be there to support him, not the other way around.
as an elliott lover... the fact you instantly named him as a bad bachelor. sigh. It's okay Elliott you are very beautiful to me.
As an Alex lover, the fact that he instantly named him as a bad bachelor too 😭
I feel your pain, that man is the only one for me
I never really see Elliot in my gameplay, bc whenever I play I sorta follow a loose pattern/schedule.
Same, as much as I love Leah I just love Elliot too much. The Elliot slander is too much 🤧
Elliott is one of the few bachelors that feel like you're dating an actual adult. Also pretentious? How is he pretentious? Just because he uses poetic words? Hes literally the sweetest bachelor and I'd say the best marriage option.
Personally, Elliott is my favorite. He's so incredibly sweet and honestly as someone going through and having saves dedicated to every characters route to objectively say who's my favorite, he's at the top. He's the one character who after marriage made me feel loved. There's just something missing with the others.
I also love him soo much. He's so babygirl. So freaking dramatic and petentious and that's genuinely a good thing. He's so funny I love him. He looks like he'd ask you if you'd still love him if he were a worm.
as someone who’s love language is words of affirmation…elliot’s 14 heart event has upped my irl standards for men LMAOO
he looks like a horse i don’t like him
I don't hate Elliot, but I'd put him low on my list since I just outright forget he's a character to speak too. My first playthrough I got to summer 2 before he had 1 heart.
@@spiritofchaos58 YOU!!! YOU GET IT!!! Crabs climb into his pockets all the time and he's just chill with it at this point, he's so babygirl material. I would absolutely still love him if he were a worm.
I've personally never really understood how Elliott comes off as pretentious, I've always thought he was pretty chill. I definitely disagree with the part about you just feeling like an object to him
People are just self conscious about their own chin
yeaa I love Elliott 😢
I think it was because of the 4 heart scene when he calls Gus bartender instead of his name.
Most of the reasons I've seen why Elliott isn't as liked is him not mentioning Gus' name in that one cutscene (which is more of him being proud than not actually knowing who Gus is) and his side profile picture.
That does make sense, to be honest I completely forgot about that scene
I love Alex's story and development. He's also one of the characters that has more dialogue when dating the same gender, and that dialogue really adds to his character which I love.
Emily does have baggage. Clint is her literally stalker. The cloth therapy is just the tip of the iceberg. It gets worse when you have any friendship with clint.
He is not stalking her
@@elizabethb4168he exclaims "Ah! You caught me!" In a heart event while he's hiding in a bush. While he does explain he just got scared and hid, "you caught me" isn't something that would make sense in that situation
@_SharkXD yeahhh it isn't a normal thing to say, and even if he chickened out of asking her out and then panicked, he could've just...walked in the other direction? Extremely sus behaviour
I ABSOLUTELY ADORE Emily, and she's number one for me, but the reasons this guy picked are so weird
I love her because she's optimistic, fun, caring, and expresses her emotions through her art! She's super loving and I just absolutely adore her
and this is why i picked her myself too and i m not regretting it.
Seeing Seanie support Maru, despite the rest of the fandom either ignoring or hating on her, makes me so happy because she was my first choice and i loved her story. Litterally my only critisim to her entire character is that I wish they kept her original hair style.
When I started playing i thought Maru would be the most popular romanceable character, despite me not liking her that much. I'm actually surprised more people don't like her than people that do.
I loooove Maru! My only problem is I wish more of my house was for her and her lab equipment. I want to be wading in science to get to bed at night ^_^
Maru is cool, I didn't know ppl hated her. She's a smart girly who loves space, what's not to love.
Agreed, I love this girl so much. She has such cute events, and this is kinda wierd, but I like that she already is her own person and her story is moving away from her parents. She doesn’t need the farmer to fix her, and so it feels more like a partnership but she still grows throughout the story
I feel like Maru is the best parts of Elli and the best parts of Mary from Harvest Moon Friends of Mineral Town, and they were already two of the best bachelorettes in that franchise. Maru is my favorite and I love her always ❤
Leah: My ex-partner was abusive and didn't want me pursuing my dreams so I ran away and im doing a lot better
Penny: My father walked out because of my mom.She's an alcoholic and we have little to no income. The town also seems to look down on us because of it. I want to get out of here and pursue my dreams, settle down and have a nice, big family
Tier author: UGGGHHHHH YOU HAVE SO MUCH BAGGAGE. HAVE YOU TRIED SMILING?!
Shane, (Is an alcoholic who took in his best friend's daughter after they died, has thoughts of unaliving, one of his heart events is you stopping him from doing so)
Sebastian (Comes from a neglectful family, is subjected to a windowless basement, has no relationship with his step father and resents his half sister for being the golden child, dreams of running away)
Alex (Father was abusive and stepped out, mother passed away (illness or unaliving herself, never specified) and has been raised by his grandparents ever since)
Tier author: OMG SO QUIRKY!!
But the fact that Emily is number one (and her sister being 2) makes me think Clint ghost-wrote this article
Pretty damn accurate to this article. Also btw I think it was implied that Alex's mom died of a terminal illness, that's at least the impression that the letter gave me
Elliott is just supposed to be my trophy husband. His job is just to sit a be pretty
Fr
And yet he's always doing farming tasks and giving me coffee anyway... Splendid man
I actually like Emily the most too! I just think she’s fun, and doesn’t feel like a child compared to some of the other characters. I don’t think that the reasoning is good for this list tho, i just enjoy the character bonding while also not feeling like the mc is changing her forever by romancing her.
Sure, she might not have the most interesting development, but I still like her a lot as a character! When I first played in 1.3 I was torn between Leah, Emily, Abigail, Maru, and Seb, but eventually chose Emily
I found out funny cuz while I like crystals, I don't really care about the supposed spiritual properties of them. I mainly just pick out what I think is prettiest, although I have occasionally looked at what they do since I was already going to buy them
Not only that, but a girl I know also married her. I didn't realize people didn't like her till just now :(
the way my jaw dropped when i saw where harvey was..i dont get why people are so "eww" about him he literally is respectfully average when you first meet him and when you get to a higher level with hearts but he has so much depth to him as well and hes so. sad i love him 😭😭 dawg did my boy so dirty..
Honestly the worst I can say about Harvey is that imo he’s kinda bland and forgettable. He’s a good dude.
@@pigcatapult i get that..i feel like he was definitely one of the bachelors that was just made because there needed to be more diversity or something but i unno..i just love him so much
I can't get passed the mustache.
@@myeeeeeh i honestly like it but i wish it carried to the regular sprite and not the talking box since his normal sprite is honestly so distasteful
its the mustache i think
hearing you say Leah is one of the most popular reminds me of when my mom played the first time and realized she didnt have to follow heteronormativity and immediately said oh im gonna marry leah
The moment i saw her i said "she's my favorite" 😭
The first people i wanted to marry were all of the moms (except Abigail and Emily). I was heartbroken
Those are some dumb takes. Especially the one about Leah.
That person got lots wrong even on characters they liked. Sam is my favorite, and while they got his kindness and love for family right they also got tons wrong. Many folks think Sam's boring at first glance, but he's got lots of interesting characterization in subtext and in family dialogues. People who really think Sam doesn't have any baggage haven't been paying attention to him. He lives in a household where his parents try to hide all their problems, and Sam hides plenty behind his smile too.
First off, when you get to know Sam he's the only person in his family who senses that his mother isn't happy with her life and that she's hiding it. He tells you at 8 hearts. So once you know that you can start to see why Sam gets so nervous about conflicts with her.
It's really obvious in how she overreacted to even a dropped egg in the kitchen, because it's not really about the egg. It's about her trying to shoulder all the responsibility of the household alone, fearing for her husband in the war, hiding a worrying letter from Kent in her nightstand drawer, and smothering her sons in her attempt to be the perfect mother. When Sam makes a small mistake trying to make a basic snack, it's treated like a catastrophe.
It makes perfect sense why Sam doesn't want to further stress out a woman he knows is walking on eggshells. Jodi is pressuring herself to be the perfect mom, while Sam is pressuring himself to be the perfect son to avoid upsetting her. You get to see the toll it's taking on them in that scene. That's why Sam has friendship points for how you answer there, yet it doesn't matter to him at all whether you take his side against Lewis in the 6 heart event.
Sam spends the first year in the game following all the news from the war, and the radio in his house is turned to the broadcasts about it. He spends summer afternoons at the beach with Vincent and tries to be there for Vince to keep him from feeling scared and lonely with their dad away fighting.
His 3 heart event is the only point where Sam really opens up about his fears, and the only person he ever opens up to is the player. It's quite sad to realize that the only scene where Sam talks about his fears is the only missable heart event in the game. He can't talk to Jodi or Vincent because he doesn't want to worry them. He clearly can't talk to Seb either, as Seb spends his two heart event complaining about his friends wanting to hang out with him and wishing that people were less needy and more like computers. So Sam pours everything into his music, practicing 4 hours a day most days. In one of his after marriage dialogues he even admits he played mostly when he felt lonely.
Once Kent returns, Sam quickly spots that he's changed. Later on, Sam even tells you about Kent pacing the halls during the night but refusing to tell Sam and Jodi what's wrong.
You further learn that Kent missed out on an important part of Sam's life, and Kent suggests you know Sam better than he does now. The game makes a point that Kent enjoys fishing, but Sam will tell you that he doesn't know how to fish. Apparently, Kent never took him or taught him. The only father and son trip we do know about was to the desert when Sam was young, which could explain Sam's love for cactus fruit. Sam loves his dad, but their relationship has grown distant from the time missed and the problems that the war brought into their lives.
That isn't even going into Sam's huge number of ADHD symptoms in his dialogue or his implied rebellious phase with things like the anchovy incident.
It's not that Sam is a person with no baggage. Sam is a person who was raised to not complain and who tries to make everything better. One of his lines in his 14 heart event sums it up nicely. "Ah well... that's okay. I'll make the best of it, like I always do."
damn
OH MY GOD! I read a lot of comments trying to find ANYONE defending my boy sam and I've finally found this pearl!!! I LOVE YOU You summed up perfectly, Sam is best boy and just because he's not a alcoholic depressed dude people think he doesn't have depth in his storyline. Thank you for your comment
God damn bro graduated in sam studies
That's a very comprehensive view of Sam, thank you for spelling it all out. Even though I always marry him I didn't notice some of these things. It makes me appreciate his character even more; he seems to be a very strong person without ever making a big deal out of it.
@paperbird9817 - Thank you! It's really easy to miss parts of Sam's story since it's often subtle, requires triggering some dialogue with pretty specific conditions, and is sometimes conveyed by folks or items around him. Plus, quiet strength seems to easily go beneath the radar.
I learned some of the harder to trigger stuff because I got interested in making a Sam mod and poked around in the files for him and his family. I think on my newest farm, I want to try to trigger all of Sam's dialogue (excluding divorce) as well as all the dialogue from others about him and his family life.
He probably had a ex that had a lot of baggage and not a stable job so he’s taking out his anger on Stardew marriage candidates.
LOOK I am a massive Emily apologist, she's my favorite bachorette and second favorite spouse after Elliot, so if anyone were to agree with her ranking it would be me. But like Emily's appeal isn't that she's employed or is baggage free or whatever, it's that she's weird, kind of funny, and just genuninly fun to interact with. She has some of the most insane heart events in the game and I love her for it. Bro really misunderstood literally every marriage candidate in the game with no shame whatsoever.
My problem with emily is that her heart events are so unpersonal. The first heart event where the two of you jave a proper moment is her 10 heart scene so after you're dating. She just doesn't have a connection to the farmer so it makes it bland. Also i'm stuck between being happy for haley being high or disgusted by leah and harvey being so low but i think i'm the latter.
I always got a Monika vibe from her. As in, she's interested in the player, not the farmer.
Maybe that's because Emily became a bachelorette later on so there was no need to build up romantic tension with the player character. I agree though, although I like the quirkiness of her early scenes!
@@thermophile1695Honestly I would like her more if this was the case, it gives her more substance
@@Crystre
I like the idea of a fictional character being interested in the player. In some ways, you could say it's the biggest power imbalance possible, since one of the people doesn't exist. Monika thinks that she's more real than Sayori, Natsuki and Yuri, but that's not true; in a way, her belief that she's as real as the player makes her even more ignorant than her peers.
It's tragic in a meta, poignant way.
@@thermophile1695 I get what you mean, it personally one of my favorites concepts in gaming, Im currently making a game with it. I hope with the advancements in ai it can make the self aware characters not just written to be self aware by a predetermined text, but allowing them to have a brain in way.
Oohhhh my goddd the misogyny in this article actually has me flabbergasted. Whoever wrote this isn't "going through something", he's clearly just a piece of crap. I'm actually a big fan of Emily -- I relate strongly to her weird girl vibes and wild imagination. But the reasons why this guy put her at #1 is making my skin crawl something horrible.
this tierlist was made by clint and Leahs ex helped him too
Im honestly so surprised haley is that high up, normally people just say "shes mean" and moves on
That's because they don't bother with her. One interaction and they stop. Haley is very pretty and likes Photography. Not much different from Leah; pretty and a creative like.
Lol, I think it's because the author is misogynistic, and Haley really fits the classic hot girl look.
She's hot and becomes kind of a stepford wife later on. I'm only surprised he ranked Emily above her.
"Leah has the most baggage of any marriage candidate" SHANE IS A SUICIDAL ALCOHOLIC?
How did the author say that Leah has the most baggage?? When Alex's whole family is pretty much dead, Shane is an alcoholic and his best friends are both dead, and Harvey may have accidentally killed someone 😭😭
simple! that is because she is a woman
leah is supposed to be making sandwiches not bringing her drama to you 🙄🤚
And Penny lives in a trailer with an alcoholic mom and has to do all the housework while being the only provider in her family, just for her mom to drink all the money away daily (at least until you repair the bus ig)
I cannot believe that my top 3 spouses, Leah, Harvey, and Maru were at the very bottom. This truly is terrible
these are my top 3 too and i was FLOORED that they were so low
I'm glad they are, because this person's opinions are terrible. Harvey being mature enough to know when to give up (his dreams) and find happiness in life still is seen as weakness? I mean... thank goodness I DON'T agree with this person.
Clearly a case of Leah and Maru being too independent and Harvey not being macho enough 🙄
leah is my all time favorite this made me so upset lol
Elliot at the bottom hurt my soul.
It's gonna be hard to be worse than the youtube video I saw that ranked Emily last for "breaking Clint's heart" by rejecting him 💀
WAIT so Leah having trauma and pursuing an unrealistic career and all is bad, but Alex having trauma and not pursuing an actual job, like, AT ALL, is fine??? I personally dislike the "I have a large, small chance of success ambition that I'm not taking very active steps in until convinced by player," but to put Alex in top 5 for the same reasons that Leah is last is so bizarre. And parental issues put Penny low, but Alex high. Wat
Leah: *makes a living as an artist*
Alex: *was planning on getting into a sport that would give him major brain damage and potentially shorten his lifespan*
7:47 it's because Shane is a guy I think instead of a woman the person who wrote the article might be basis
Tbh Elliott is S tier for me. Like. He's emotionally mature, can articulate his emotions, doesn't give up his career for his spouse, and is all around quite considerate. He's light hearted, intelligent, makes jokes, is aware of his vanity (we love vain folks bc you should love yourself :)), and the only "pretentious" thing about him is his use of big, fancy words. Which...makes sense as he's a writer. Also as someone autistic and a writer, I have gotten some flack for being seen as pretentious for using big words. It just is the way I talk especially with my love of languages and my ease of understanding vocabulary. I have had to dumb down my speech just to feel like I can fit in. My intention is never to make anyone feel bad, it's just how I speak. So I guess it's a bit personal why I feel upset when Elliott is considered pretentious cause being autistic and having a particular way of speaking due to my love of languages and understanding of grammar, yeah, I've had to deal with that too.
Honestly I like all the bachelors. I think Penny is personally my most disliked as I have had friends who are like her that have been toxic. That meek, people pleasing attitude. I get it, I've been like her too, but especially with not a lot of growth or help for her like Shane gets with his therapy (minus the fact his liked items don't reflect it with the beer), it just leaves a sour taste. She wants to be good cause her mom treats her horribly so she tries to always be nice, but you can't really say anything to her cause otherwise you come off like a jerk since she's sensitive. A great friend, but I could not have a relationship like that. That's just my preference as I have had people like that and it has been very toxic on both of our ends and I would like to NEVER have to go back to that. But aside from her, I enjoy all the love interests tbh. Shane is a favorite for me, mostly cause I get it. I have bad trauma and personality disorders, I ain't exactly perfect or easy to love. But I'd be content being his friend. Maru is fantastic and a sweetheart. Alex is probably another least fave just cause in the female farmer ten heart event, he just orders you a salad. And like. I really don't appreciate that. It's such a small thing, but I've had an ED and even that small, tiny thing is triggering to me. Harvey is def becoming one of my favorites. He's so cute and sweet and I also have a fear of heights :D Emily fluctuates between my favorite girl and not. I mostly love her cause she reminds me of my best friend and myself :) I adore Haley cause I love the "mean girl" trope and she comes off as very autistic to me (special interests, doesn't really understand others/lower empathy, trouble with tone) and I like that :) Sam and Sebastian are both cool. The only reason I can't see myself choosing Sebastian anymore is cause, like, my friend adores him like I adore Elliott so I can't see me picking him even in a solo playthrough lol. Leah is probably one of the least baggage love interests too. She has an ex girlfriend who is still clingy. Like. That's not HER fault. She's pretty chill, emotionally mature, loves nature, and is creative and kind. Abigail is pretty cool too.
I really do love all the love interests tbh. Penny is really the only one I don't really romantically love anymore cause of the previous mentioned reasons. I would still fight for her and be her friend any day and I love many things about her so don't think my criticism and personal trauma projection is me saying she's bad. She's great, just not for me due to past experiences. I dunno how you could hate any of them aside from personal tastes. Like, I think Shane is the big one I see it's more okay to not want to date since uh alcoholism, mental health, and literally a suicide attempt. I can handle it cause um, I'm not much different and I am disabled and traumatized so I know I'm a lot for people to deal with too, but like, many people wouldn't, especially in real life so like, it's fine.
I dunno how anyone can say Shane doesn't have the most baggage or would dare say Leah is undatable cause of her baggage, but Shane isn't??? If anything, it should be Shane is the only real undatable one cause of his baggage, but we all pretty much love him anyway.
Anyway, that is my autistic rambles on stuff that really doesn't matter :) :p
The fact Elliott is is LOWER than Shane baffles me. I don’t think Elliott see’s you as just his muse for his writing, he writes about you out of love
this just in: doctors aren't allowed to get married anymore
"Leah has the most baggage" but we forgetting that Shane literally wanted to OFF HIMSELF WITH ALCOHOL AND OR THROW HIMSELF OFF A CLIFF?
“ but he’s a MAN “ the author be like
I’m not a big Haley fan but saying that her only hobby is shopping??? Girl has a whole dark room for developing photos and eventually stops caring so much about shopping, this guy just hates it when girls have a life
He accuses Leah of running as soon as things get hard, but I get the feeling he would be the one to run. He wants a spouse with no problems, who needs no support. What will he do if his partner's family dies? What if his partner becomes seriously sick or disabled? Or is fired from their job?
Ok hearing seanie saying maru is in his top 3 makes me like him even more than I already did
For real
Wait Seanie's significant other looks like Haley? Thats so adorable!!! Those pictures were so cute!!!
That's their Halloween outfits from last year, I believe. So cute!
Harvey x Haley canon ig lol
He forgot about Clint's obsession with Emily! That's an active drama situation!
I am a penny lover and will forever be a penny lover. She’s so sweet and kind and you get unique furniture from her 14 heart event.
this is truly the tierlist of all time
someone in the stream chat said "Kel and Clint collabed on this" LMFAOOOOO
Emily is my favourite because how genuinely nice and caring she is, she wants the best for everyone and will help anyone in need if they want it, while also not letting the bad things slow her stride.
As a person who is chronically Ill I need a person who is already secure caring and understanding, and almost every marriage candidate has a lot of current issues that won’t benefit in being in a romantic relationship with me since they have so much to deal with already and should work out independently.
Harvey is an incredible spouse!!! I will die on this hill. He says the sweetest things and he's just so doting
This guy is unironically the person who does the jojo route on completing the game instead of community center
That would definitely be a bizarre run of the game.
@@thenickstrikebetter*Badum tss*
Why they think that having problems is wrong? Problems are building our personalities irl, in gamedev - making characters more realistic and relatiable, adding depth into them. Why is it possibly a bad thing?
Also Harvey, my poor baby with his dreams shattered into pieces 😢 you don't deserve this
This list feels like it was generated by an ai.
Elliott and maru top tier
Personally i love Emily and idk why but her and shane were my first 2 marriages. Then i said "f*** that, krobus is better" so i think im healing
Abigail was there for me when I was the dweeb guy at high school, now she is here for me while I am a dweeb girl at college
yo same
Mtf? Or am I too high while reading
What
Abigail was me before I transitioned
THAT IS SO REAL ME TOO
the author really thinks female characters should be accessories with no emotional depth of their own huh
"So at worst place you'd expect to see someone like Elliot"
Me: So you have chosen death
Penny and Harvey are my two favorite marriage candidates. Penny was my first ever Stardew Spouse, and Harvey is my go-to marriage candidate. I love seeing both of them grow as characters. Shane is a character I've only married once. His mental health issues hit so close to home for me that it's hard for me to go through with his storyline- especially when my own mental health is in the toilet. The points about Elliott make me upset, honestly. I like to write in my free time, and seeing Elliott being passionate about something I'm also passionate about makes me happy.
0/10 tier list.
I think bro forgot this is a video game where you make MILLIONS every day.
It’s literally written by a guy named Kyle, what was anyone expecting 💀
Honestly ever since Sal said that Shane and Emily weren't meant to be bachelors originally I've been thinking about much it makes sense. I like Shane and Emily as people and would love to hang out with them, but it feels like a train wreck to get involved with Shane when it seems like everything about his character feels like friend material (hear me out) and Emily feels like the kind of person who's either forever single or already taken and it's not a part of her life that's a big deal either way.
And with Shane, things like sharing a beer by the lake at night feels very intimate, but not romantic. It feels like something that happens in real life a lot, one of those first times you start to see what kind of person this new acquaintance is and one of those nights you can have another 100 times that goes the same way. He's not like Abigail, Sam and Seb where he has a dedicated friend group, it feels like his social connections are lacking, and it feels like his place in the story is with his family. Idk, I think it would be really cool if marrying people like Shane forced you to use the farm in a more dedicated way. If you have Shane, there's a deluxe coop with all blue hens on your farm. If you marry Abigail, there's a slime hutch and fencing for outdoor slime ranching, that sort of thing. He talks about passing on the skills to Jas with the expectation that he won't be around, but to me it feels more like...well like what someone who tried to end their life would think while still recovering-- the old pattern of expecting to not be alive that far into the future. I think his character could live with a partner nearby his family, but that there's too big of a gap between what we see and when it happens.
Although i guess thats another nitpick i have, that the 10 heart scenes in general tend to develop a blooming romance when its actually the required scene after having already been dating in order to progress to marriage. We all notice it being odd, I don't take real issue with the game or concerned ape over it, but I don't like the feel of that
I think Shane would be better as a platonic roommate, in all honesty.
i like emily because she felt like she secretly knew magic and possibly has some secrets
one could argue emily’s stalker clint would be some pretty heavy baggage lmao
I don't think Emily realises Clint has an obsession, then again I've only gotten Clint to 4 hearts so idk what happens after that.
Pretty sure she's a crystal witch and could turn him into a frog
I was an Emily girl… her heart supports aren’t the best but, I love her sm… after she gave me clothes that she made, I never took them off despite how… interesting they are. She’s great ;-;
I've only seen the first thing and LEAH BECAUSE OF BAGGAGE????
That's NO reason to write someone off! The heck!?
My fav is Alex. I like dumbish jocks with heart of gold, and i love how he visit his grandparents every monday (if i remember correctly). Even tho I'm sad that he gave up his dream I still find his whole story charming and cute
it’s like he’s ranking them based on how good of a potential partner they’d be in real life and not a video game character where the point is that you get to know them and help them the closer you get
Sebastian is #1 boy, best most sweet guy ever and I will absolutely die on this hill 100% of the time. He's an introvert and his heart events as an introvert myself absolutely warmed my heart and was far sweeter than anything else this game has. It struck a different cord with me and I can't stop loving him.
Emily - honestly she is perfect to me. She is sweet, creative, and passionate. She is also a fantastic mother to your children, quoting as all she wants for them is happiness. For me she is miles ahead as #1
My blood started boiling when you said Elliott was the worst, but when I saw “LEAVE ELLIOTT ALONE” in the back I was calmed 😭
finally someone who appreciates Maru as she deserves!
at first i was just going to marry her because i learned she would gift bombs, but i genuinely enjoyed all her heart events i think shes pretty sweet
Maru doesn't gift tho?
Only the added marriage candidates gift, and Maru was always one.
@@thermophile1695 i dont think thats accurate
@@thermophile1695 they all gift
@@thermophile1695 they can all gift things
@@lrizzard
RUclips keeps removing my comment when I try to link to the stardew wiki, so just look up the letters page. You'll see where everyone can send gifts, but the only marriage candidates that do so are Shane and Emily.
THANK YOU for defending Maru, she was my first stardew love and my favorite! I had no clue anyone disliked her until I began getting into the online community. I think she’s so cute and nice and I totally agree that her heart events are really romantic
Agreed! She’s my favorite ^_^
My brothers favorite love interest is Emily, she’s the only person he’ll ever romance and likes to speedrun marrying her. I think it’s that he enjoys her energy the most
@@aidanmontoya1919 just like how he shouldn’t search through mine
Kel and Clint definitely did a collab for this one
Has the writer endured a single thing in their entire life? I’m kinda jealous at how detached from reality they are 😭
Every time someone says "Leah's ex-boyfriend," I suddenly remember that there are people who play as a boy in this game for some reason
Was this tierlist made by Clint?
I'm very new to Stardew, and totally intended to marry Penny or Sebastian, just because I like the quiet, shy, quirky vibe, but then I got into Emily, and to be honest? I like her. A lot. I like the quirkiness. I like that she isn't high maintenance. I like that she has silly heart events. Maybe unpopular, but I really don't care.
rather late, but I love how the worst candidate in this list left town because she hated it there (specially her abusive ex) and wanted to focus on her art, while the best makes it clear she's only helping Gus to make ends meet, and even Gus says that she won't be working there for long
Emily was actually the last marriage cantidate added. She was added in after a poll where the other options were Sandy and Pam.
I actually really like Emily. Not as a spouse but as a good friend. It‘s nice to have somebody around you that seems full of joy and genuinely enjoys life. She‘s just vibing with her many projects and doesn‘t care if somebody find‘s it weird. Yeah maybe not the most interesting or complex, but people like her can be very comforting the be around ❤
I'm not surprised that the person who wrote this article let's men be 3 dimensional characters, while women have to be submissive, bland and have no experience in dating otherwise they have baggage.
Also I like how this misogyny extends on Harvey, who commits the sin of not being the mold of masculinity.
This shows how misogyny affects men who don't conform too.
7.8/10 not enough baggage.
Emily's default portrait looks like she wants to murder me in my sleep ngl
This on top of her directionless heart events that are just about her being a generally nice person and that's it makes her the worst imo (although I've only done one playthrough so I haven't seen a lot of the heart events myself)
Well real life doesn't have a direction. Must be why people dislike her.
thats because she wasnt meant to be a bachelorette. there was a poll on which character should be "marryable" and Emily won. her heart cutscenes werent adjusted to this, which is why it feels awkward.
@@pastaloverohyeah Oh ok. I didn't know that, thanks for the explanation.
Ok imma out myself. My top 3 are Sebastian Emily and Elliot in that order. My first play through I married Elliot so he has a soft spot in my heart. My second play through I married Sebastian first then Emily strictly because of her first heart event feeling like an acid trip but I grew to love her the more I saw of her. I hated how she only worked on Fridays after marriage though. It seemed like she really liked that job but only works once a week now.
Leah is my 4th fav though
I found who wrote the article and here is his biography on the site:
Kyle Grammatica is a Features Writer for Collider. When he's not writing, you can find him drawing, fishing, or at a baseball game.
“Leah has the most baggage” have you MET Shane?????
how tf is Leah last cuz she has "the most baggage" when Shane, Seb and Alex exist 😭😭
She’s a woman 👍
Article writer had some biases showing. Definitely came with his own baggage.
"Leah has the most baggage"
What is Shane, chopped liver?
I'm always fighting folks about Elliott. I love him, he's kind of annoying and a little bit mean but he's artistic and has a passion. I also really enjoy the story of being his muse, I find it so cute. (And totally not because my name is Elliot and I find it very funny)
