XDDD darn youngsters!!!
I got this game last week and gotta say that I love it, but in a way the game seems really stressful? There is so much to do and the time goes by incredibly quick, so I end up wanting to do more than I have the time for. I also frequently just restart the game in the middle of the day to have a do-over if I'm displeased with how I'm doing. Pretty sure that's a personal problem with me and my obsession for efficiency.
I also kind of dislike the villagers you can date? Like they're not bad characters but all of them are just teens you know? Like they have stupid teen problems and such, which I don't consider interesting. I'm going for Sebastian and I cringe every time he says something edgy or ''**** the establishment''-like even though I like the character.
But overall the game is really cool and I'm surprised one guy could cram a game so filled with stuff. I'm really impressed.

The game is so polished that it's astounding that one person made it imo.

Hi, buy, bye
I was actually considering romancing Elliott, but he seemed like he was in his mid-late 30's, and that felt a little awkward for me lol. I know the creator is working on more dating options, namely Shane, because of how many fans want to romance him. There's actually a mod for it out right now haha. Harvey also strikes me as older, seeing as he's a full-fledged doctor and all. Honestly, personally, the only ones who seem remotely like teenagers are Abigail, Haley, Sam, and Sebastian, but even for these four, it's stretching it for me. This is just my personal opinion and head canons, though.
Yeah I'm pretty sure Harvey is confirmed to be a bit older but I dunno, he just didn't interest me much. And Elliot might be too but I'm not into poets, so eh. But outside of those few I do feel that most of the people you can date are pretty teen-like. I dunno I could be totally wrong but it turns me off a lot about some characters.
And really? I really like some of the nondateable characters, esp. Shane so that's really sick. I should prob look at the mods more closely, but from the quick glance I got a lot of them seemed kind of uninteresting? Like idk alot of ''make character x look like x or look like x nationality" and some other reskins I don't really care for. I mean, it's perfectly fine to edit the chars to look like how you want them to be but I personally like it more vanilla.

Same on the mod factor. I like games vanilla. The only mod I use to change anything like that is I have a dragon instead of a horse. I mean, come on, you can't have a dragon and expect me to not get it lmao. //obsessed. I think you might be getting a heavier impression that they are younger because they live with their families, maybe? Just a guess, but in our culture, in a lot of parts of the US and Europe, it's normal for a child to move out at 18, but in terms of Stardew, a really small village town in the middle of no where, their children are more likely to stay for much longer than age 18. I remember noticing this personally and having it add to my head canon. Also if you assume chars in game have to be 21 to drink, Leah would have to be at least 21 (she's always at the saloon getting wine). Obviously we don't know the culture there, so there could be no drinking age. I just love how open ended the game is so you can decide a lot about the characters, at least in sense of age.
I totally would marry Linus in a second playthrough, though. He's too damn precious. But he's like.... a grandpa figure to me LOL
Sorry if none of this makes sense, it's 6am and I'm on mobile because I just had wicked nightmares and I don't wanna go back to bed lol
Yeah honestly that could be it. They also look the part I guess? But honestly some of the adults look pretty youthful too, like I was convinced that Emily was one of the characters you could marry cuz she looks so young. And stereotype-wise it's easy to connect them to a young stereotype imo. It might also have to do with the fact that I'm a teen myself lol.
And yeah Linus is really precious, like his humbleness is sweet even though it's a bit over the top at times.
And aw hope ya sleep well and all that :b
Edit: Actually about Emily wasn't she the sister of Haley? So she's not as old as some of the other adults. Why is she not dateable thennnn

Yes! I thought the same about Emily, actually! I guess it's just the artists' style. That's what I'm guessing, because it is very ambiguous how old they could be. The way I see it, I feel like the creator was trying to make it to they could appeal to any age.
Emily is the sister of Haley, but based on the dialogue about each other, Emily seems like she could be +7 years or something to her. And she isn't dateable because
Her and Clint have a 'thing' going on
For that reason, I hope she doesn't become dateable.
Obviously a portion of this is my head canon, so take it with a grain of salt, haha.

I was so bummed to see Emily wasn't a bachelorette. 
Starting to gravitate towards Penny, she's modest and nice and just wants to settle down and start a family. Seems I always end up falling for the bookworm characters at the end of the day.

hhey this might be a weird question but do you have to marry anyone? or, like, what good things come from marriage?
LethalLulu
Hi, buy, bye
They do like daily tasks for you sometimes (which is obsolete later in the game anyway), and you can have a family.
