Original Post — Direct link

So last night I was playing stardew with my boyfriend and there was no issues nor had there been issues with the weeks we played before, but suddenly today when we tried playing I couldn’t join his game. We’ve tried signing out, shutting down the game, verifying the game files (we’re on steam) but no matter what I can’t join. I even created my own host farm and couldn’t even send him an invite link. Please help we just wanna play stardew

This could be due to a few things:

  • Something is blocking the connection between you and your bf. This could be a firewall, antivirus, bad internet connection, etc. Please make sure there's nothing like this causing it.
  • There could be an issue with the authentication servers (run by GOG), that is used to connect all stardew PC multiplayer games. There is no definite way to solve this, but trying multiple times, signing in and out of steam, and even changing your steam username have all been reported to help.
