Stardew Valleyis already filled with eligible singles butplayers wanting to pursue a relationship with the game’s most enigmatic bachelor will need this mod. While most of Pelican Town’s residents offer the kind of friendly companionship one expects from the cozy farming RPG, one person’s goals are more mysterious. Mr. Qi is an odd individual who seems eager to push players to their limits, and while that may not be what everyone wants in a spouse, he’s managed to develop quite the fanbase.

Over on Nexus Mods, creatorAngelOfStarsshared their appropriately titled “Friendable Mr. Qi” mod that does exactly what one might expect. The add-on fleshes out the mysterious character,allowing players the chance to befriend him and potentially marry him; the add-on includes over 808 new lines of dialogue, many of which can be experienced through Mr. Qi’s 22 Heart Events. That may be enough to tempt players, but the mod goes beyond Mr. Qi’s character to further cement him as a core part of the game.

Mr Qi from Stardew Valley is wearing a blue sparkly hat, shiny purple glasses, and a blue sparkly top. He is smirking creepily at the camera.

Friendable Mr. Qi Is Bigger Than One NPC

It Adds Plenty More Content

Aside from turning Mr. Qi into a potential love interest,AngelOfStars' mod also adds a plethora of extras to help players enjoy their lifewith the wide-brim hat enthusiast. The mod alsoincludes three new crops, new cooking and crafting recipes, additional end-game weapons, a new shop, two extra locations, and even a set ofunique quests and special orders, three of which are repeatable. It’s an ambitious release, one that will likely take users hours to fully explore.

As with all fan-made add-ons, “Friendable Mr. Qi” isn’t canon to ConcernedApe’s vision forStardew Valley, but for players who aredrawn to the enigmatic character, it’s a breath of fresh air. AngelOfStars does quip that while the mod does turn Mr. Qi into a romance option,it doesn’t “make (him) a redeemable person.“While that may not be a great foundation upon which to build a marriage, at least fans know that his character hasn’t been changed too much.
