Hello everyone,

I've received a lot of feedback regarding Morris and wanted to make a poll regarding him. Currently, Morris disappears upon completion of the community center and does not return. I'm considering adding him as a permanent character, with my only concern being his housing situation and writing a believable story as of why he's staying in Stardew Valley. 

Let me know what your thoughts are!

I mentioned it on the subreddit, but I'd love to see Morris in charge of a Joja trading outpost in the desert as part of an overhaul of that region. Maybe somewhat reformed, still believes in Joja's products but doesn't want to exploit an entire community for their benefit.

I'm late to the party, but I voted yes. The bug of him hiding behind the abandoned Jojamart did make me laugh (I could imagine him finally breaking down and asking Linus for tent tips - never give up the Joja dream!), but it did make me wonder what Morris would do without Joja. What would happen if he was fired because the Jojamart failed? How would he deal without the corporation he structured his life around, and what would he do? It seems that the only people he is fond of live in Pelican Town, so I could see him moving there. I think there are a lot of ways he could be introduced as a permanent character, which would make getting to know him more fun for community center players. Housing is tricky. It's too bad there isn't a hotel. Maybe the saloon could be expanded with a room to rent or Morris could build a house somewhere?
