I've been playing a lot of Stardew Valley recently. The soundtrack is amazing. The gameplay is amazing. I love the characters. It's singlehandedly holding together my mental health at the moment with how cutesy it is and everything. I'm not super far into parts of the game and I love figuring everything out on my own, only reaching for help when I absolutely need it.
Minor game spoilers(?):
SpoilerFavorite character is Penny. I'm going to try to make some new saves and actually date around at some point, just 'cause I'm curious what's the whole deal with the rest of the dateable people, but as it stands now the person I care most about in the game is Penny. And holy crap, her theme is straight up one of the best tracks in the game.
(I'm currently unsure if this has any bearing on my IRL romantic attraction, which is, of course, more complicated to figure out then it should be. I've never been able to pin down a "type" that I have, so part of me is like... do I have a thing for shy girls? We may never know.)
I also have a fondness for Jas and Vincent. Emily is pretty great too. And Harvey, I think. I haven't talked to too much beyond these.

Back in 2020, I had a week to myself while I quarantined after possible COVID exposure. All day, every day, I played Stardew Valley. It's truly one of the best games out now, for all the reasons you've said.
SpoilerPenny is fantastic, and her story is one of the best too. On my most recent game, I dated Haley, who is surprisingly wonderful once you get to know her.
I actually did the dating around thing my first game as I too was curious about the others, and immediately felt like crap during the first romantic cutscene because I knew full well I was playing her. (I'd already decided on Leah by this point.)
