It's $15 on Switch and $10 on Steam. I like the idea of taking it on the go with me. Is it worth the extra $5 for that? Is any version better than the other?

PC has mods, Switch doesn't.

Mods are why I swore I'd always get the PC version of anything before a console version.

Playing anywhere is why I swore I'd get the Switch version of most games.

This is so hard for Stardew Valley, though. From what it sounds like, mods aren't as essential to this game compared to, say, Minecraft or Oblivion/Skyrim/Fallout. But I'm not sure.

What good mods would I miss out on if I get it on Switch?

There are a lot of aesthetic mods and mods that add story and dialogue to things. Also convenience mods for the farming aspect. I've never used them on PC so I don't feel like you'd be missing out just playing the base game, but if you're a minmaxer you'll want the mods.

The story mods sound intriguing, maybe some convenience mods. It's such a hard choice to make.

It is on Steam.

Also eventually this is supposed to get multiplayer and I'm pretty sure most people on this board have it on PC if that matters to you.

Switch is getting it first among consoles, but not before PC.

You can't go wrong. For you I'd probably say Switch because it's very easy to love the game without mods so having the portability is going to be more noticeable.

I will say I've preferred PC controls over console controls though.
