Summary
- Experience more immersive interactions with NPCs in Stardew Valley with the "Unique Gift Dialogues Expanded" mod.
- The 1.6 Update enhanced NPC reactions, making gift-giving more rewarding and dialogue more diverse.
- Players can now deepen their relationships with Pelican Town residents through unique gift reactions and expanded dialogue options.
The 1.6 Update for Stardew Valley may have improved the game more than anyone ever expected but one of the most lauded features just got even better thanks to an excellent new mod. Gifting the NPCs of Pelican Town with their favorite items is one of the key aspects of the farming RPG as players are encouraged to really learn what the characters like and dislike. Previously, it always felt a little hollow since giving a gift was always met with a handful of repeated responses but fortunately, that's no longer the case.
Over on Nexus Mods, PrincessFelicie shared their "Unique Gift Dialogues Expanded" mod which does what it says on the tin by adding in addition 90+ responses for NPCs to use whenever the player gives them a present. The mod was created because most of the new reactions are only to rare items added in the 1.6 Update or exclusive to romanceable characters. PrincessFelicie notes that their Dialogues Expanded add-on serves as a starting point as they intend to grow it even further, requesting that anyone who s it politely offer them .

Stardew Valley's Multiplayer Problem Is Turning Pelican Town Into A Drama-Fuelled Soap Opera
Stardew Valley players come together to share tales of the most scandalous multiplayer events they've seen in Pelican Town and the drama is too real.
Unique Gift Reactions Are New To Stardew Valley
The 1.6 Update Made NPCs Much More Expressive
Arguably the most expansive update Stardew Valley has ever received, the 1.6 Patch included commenting on the specifics of the gift.
Aside from this, NPCs are now more reactionary to events that occur in the world as they discuss things that have happened around Pelican Town, making them feel like actual residents rather than robots who just go about a routine. Despite this, some players have noted that they don't believe the feature is deep enough given that certain characters like Clint and George still have a very limited amount of unique responses to gifts. Other dateable NPCs like Leah, Alex, and Emily all have considerably more.
With the help of the "Unique Gift Dialogues Expanded" mod, players will be able to make Stardew Valley even more immersive than it already is by giving the denizens of Pelican Town even more personality. A simple creation in concept, but its addition to the game should have a major impact on one of the core pillars of gameplay. There are already so many new things to discover, so making the rabbit hole even deeper seems like a situation wherein everyone wins.
