For players who particularly enjoy getting close to the many NPCs Stardew Valley and Expanded have to offer, Victor is sure to be an exciting prospect. However, it can be difficult to know where to begin with romancing brand-new characters, and this challenge becomes even harder when there are so many other new features to get used to at the same time. In an attempt to make this a little easier, this guide will help give players an insight into Victor’s likes, dislikes, schedule, and more.

Victor’s Regular Schedule For Every Season
Each villager in Stardew Valley (and, of course, Stardew Valley Expanded) keeps a schedule that stays regular throughout each day of each season. Memorizing these schedules can be one of the best things for players to do if they’re particularly interested in befriending or romancing a specific character.
In terms of schedules, Victor’s, thankfully, isn’t too difficult to memorize since he can typically be found in the same locations regardless of the season or the weather. That being said, his schedule is quite complex, with each day including different activities. As well as this, his schedule can deviate quite a bit on a day-to-day basis depending on the season, so players should pay close attention to each day of the month to ensure that they’ll be able to find Victor easily.

The Best Gifts for Victor: Likes, Loves, Dislikes, and Hates
Gift-giving in Stardew Valley is a core mechanic that players should definitely be taking advantage of. Each character in Stardew Valley has a range of likes and dislikes that reflect their personalities, background, and interests. By giving villagers things they like, players will increase friendship with them, which will be rewarded in turn by gifts and recipes in the mail.
Victor’s likes and dislikes are pretty easy to figure out when players keep his personality in mind; to reflect his cushy upbringing, he’s fond of wine, and his interests are reflected in his enjoyment of nature or science-related items. On the opposite note, Victor dislikes most forages, fish, and fish dishes, which should also make it easier for players to remember what to avoid when gifting him things.

Movie Theater: Victor’s Favorites
While the Movie Theater is mostly a staple of the Stardew Valley 1.4 Update, the Stardew Valley Extended mod also makes good use of the update, too. Taking advantage of the Movie Theater to raise friendships with NPCs is a definite must for any player looking to gain heart points fast, and it’s a pretty simple process overall.
To invite Victor to see a movie, players should go to the Movie Theater on the west side of town and purchase a ticket for 1,000g. After buying a ticket, find Victor and gift him the movie ticket from the inventory; after gifting the ticket, head over to the Movie Theater again on the same day to see a movie with him. The option to buy a concession snack can be taken advantage of for extra heart points, too - plus, when players take Victor to see a movie he loves and buy him a snack he loves, the heart points received will be boosted massively!

Victor’s Heart Events
Heart events will occur in Stardew Valley when players have grown close enough to a character. They give players a deeper insight into the personal life of a specific character and can often have particularly heartwarming scenes. Victor has several heart scenes, and some can only be triggered at specific times, locations, and seasons, so be sure to plan accordingly when necessary!
Two Hearts: enter Victor’s home. Three Hearts: visit Shearwater Bridge in sunny weather during Spring, Summer, or Fall between 8:00 AM and 5:00 PM. Four Hearts: enter town on any sunny Tuesday in Spring, Summer, or Fall between 10:30 AM and 5:00 PM. Six Hearts: enter town between 12:00 PM and 5:00 PM. Eight Hearts: enter Victor’s home. Ten Hearts: enter town on any sunny day between 6:00 AM and 11:50 AM. Twelve Hearts (I): enter the players’ Farmhouse on any sunny day between 6:00 AM and 8:00 AM. Twelve Hearts (II): head to the Mountain on any sunny day between 12:00 PM and 5:00 PM.
There’s also a secret event that players can only see if they happen to be dating both Victor and his mother, Olivia, at the same time. To see this secret heart event, head to the Jenkins residence, where both Victor and Olivia live after reaching eight hearts with both Victor and Olivia. The consequences of this heart event can also change depending on whether the player is holding a Rabbit’s Foot in their inventory before triggering the cutscene. This heart event can only be seen once per save.
What Happens After Marrying Victor?
After marrying Victor, he’ll move into the Farmhouse with the player. After moving in, he’ll add his own small room to the right of the Farmhouse, where he can sometimes be found. Alongside his personal room, Victor will also add a small garden just behind the Farmhouse with a small model bridge; he can also often be found here. His schedule also changes slightly; while he’ll still visit Sebastian on the 20th of each month to play Solorian Chronicles and will occasionally visit town; he’s most often found at the Farmhouse, helping around the farm.
Once Victor has moved in, and the player has managed to hit fourteen hearts with him, he will begin giving the player occasional gifts. Some of these gifts include Gold Bars and bottles of wine - very good items for farmers looking to earn a little more money on the side!
Stardew Valley is available on PS4, PS Vita, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PC, Android, and iOS.
