Awesome Stardew Valley Mod Shows Off One Pet In Horrifying 4K Detail

The animals of are all adorable in their own way but one fan explicitly proved that pigs are the one exception to the rule. Ever since ConcernedApe's Farming RPG launched in 2016, the community has been divided on the pig sprite with many insisting that the abundance of wrinkles and scrunched-up faces make for aesthetically unappealing creatures. In comparison to other livestock options like cows, goats, and sheep, Pig 's may bring in plenty of cash with their truffles but they certainly don't make for an appealing farmyard.

Over on Reddit, user bestestdude perfectly illustrated the pigs' terrifying aura by sharing images of their fake mod project which suggests replacing each sprite with a 4K hand-drawn version.

The results speak for themselves as the cow, chicken, and cat are all adorable but turning the pig into a faithfully recreated illustration results in an unsightly abomination. The creator quips that they stayed true to the pig's original shape and lines; While the mod isn't actually in development, it's still a fun nod at one of the community's pet peeves.

The world of Stardew Valley includes a lot of otherworldly elements, but certain aspects of the game still don't make sense even in a fantasy setting.

While bestestdude may not be working on a hand-drawn mod, sports tens of thousands of add-ons to aesthetically overhaul the game. Staying on the topic of pigs, several users have created mods with the sole intent of making pigs cuter, placing them more in line with aCow or a Sheep. Others have sought to re-do every sprite in the entire game, creating menus of detailed pixel art to better translate every vegetable, piece of furniture, and character portrait.

Even more mods are designed to completely overhaul Pelican Town's overall look as some creators strive to recreate medieval villages or constantly spooky witch covens. Some of the most popular «make-overs» include turning the hamlet into a fairy-themed wonderland or a Victorian-inspired village. is
