Stardew Valley fandom try not to make Kent homophobic/abusive challenge (impossible)
# I feel like I see a lot of Kent bashing in fics which annoys me as he's a genuine good guy and that shines through the little dialogue he has. Like the time Jodi accidentally triggers his PTSD and Kent gets mad at the Player if you say it was Jodi's fault or where he has the exact same dialogue (“Hey, [Player]. Are you enjoying the married lifestyle?”) no matter the Player's gender when married to Sam. It's seems that this is almost always a plotline in angsty Sam fanfiction, where Kent is abusive, homophobic (or both) and the Player has to somehow 'save' Sam. It's odd to me as the source material literally gives Sam angst on a silver platter that incorporates Kent but I see that view very rarely.
