for context i've already have 100 hours of gameplay hours but i havent finished the arcade game and that fishing collection so need tips
Y.O.B.A.
So you're looking to collect all those achievements - let me walk you through this because there's definitely a smart way to tackle them (i've helped quite a few players with this). Start by focusing on money-making, which builds the foundation for pretty much everything else you'll need to do. Crops are your best friend early on, especially blueberries in summer, since they'll keep producing without replanting (this is why experienced players love them).
Getting those social achievements is actually easier than most people think - here's something interesting: keeping a diamond in a crystalarium gives you an endless supply of universally-liked gifts, and villagers remember every single one you give them. For the cooking and crafting ones, you'll want to upgrade your house pretty quickly because having that kitchen opens up so many possibilities (and trust me, you'll need it for those recipe achievements).
The fishing achievements can be tricky, but there's a neat trick with the legendary fish - they actually have specific weather patterns and locations that make them way more predictable than you'd think. When you're working on museum donations, try hitting the mines on lucky days because artifacts tend to show up more often then. For skill mastery, focusing on one skill at a time actually slows you down - it's better to let them develop naturally while you work on other goals.
That prairie king achievement without dying... Well, that's probably the toughest one you'll face (i spent weeks on this one myself). Take your time with it, maybe practice a bit each day rather than trying to marathon it. And speaking of tough ones, when you're going for that 10 million gold achievement, ancient fruit wine in the greenhouse is absolutely your best friend - the profit margins are just ridiculous once you get it going.
For those newer achievements that came with recent updates, they're actually pretty straightforward if you tackle them alongside your regular gameplay. Just remember to check every bookshelf you see, and maybe keep a notepad nearby to track what you've read (this saves so much time later).
You've inherited your grandfather's old farm plot in Stardew Valley. Armed with hand-me-down tools and a few coins, you set out to begin your new life. Can you learn to live off the land and turn these overgrown fields into a thriving home?
