Unpopular opinion but I'm tired of Isabelle and won't really miss her if she's gone. She's cute, but she's not the only cute character.
The art in NH is so pretty! NL's charm wore off really fast, I didn't like the weird texture everything was rendered with. NH's art style looks nice and simple and vibrant. And when you look at the different seasons in-game you can really feel it. It has a great atmosphere.

:iconclap: She really took over the series. She's cute and nice but to me she sort of embodies the "too nice"-ness of ACNL. The animals in that game were all the same exact personality really, and I felt no reason to greet my neighbours everyday or try to make friends because everyone had the same things to say. If someone moved I wasn't ever upset about it.
To be fair, though, if any character in the game needed to be nice, Isabelle was the right choice. Like it's funny to walk into the post office at night and run into Phyllis, but to have an animal that showed up as often as Isabelle did be rude would have been off. Especially since she was your assistant. I'd just want to be like "You're rude, I should be able to fire you over that and hire someone else". lolThey should let us choose! I'd pick Gracie personally to be my assistant. :silly: "Mayor, we should raise some funds to get you a more sightly outfit." I think Isabelle fits NL's vibe very well but I think the oversaturation of her online is just...tiring me.
Turns out there are some bonuses. :D The one I have ordered comes with a tote bag, and the price lowered to £50.
I've seen some pre-orders with cute keychains, which I would prefer but I'm going to stick with what I have. :)
I wish Joy-cons weren’t so expensive. That’s a nice color.
So, to someone who loves Pokemon and Mario (and I loved Spyro back in the day!) would you recommend this game?I love both of those games, but it's not exactly comprable to either of those. It's basically a life simulator where you are a villager/mayor in a little town of animals. I think there's a big overlap between Pokemon and AC fans. It's much more laid back though, and you play in real time (unless you time travel...it's meant to be experienced in real time :P) to grow the town. There's a lot of collectibles and design aspects of the game, and this one will have tons more design aspects (that we know of! still a lot of stuff we haven't heard of yet) because you can decorate the town itself much more than before.
Cool, thank you!
I will look into this more, it sounds fun. :)
I've watched a few videos on YouTube and the game looks like it will be adorable. :)
Is it a relaxing game? The music (if it was from the game in the videos) sounds calming.
I'm looking forward to trying Animal Crossing for the first time!

It's good for playing at night to fall asleep! Not in a bad way obviously, but yes, it's very calming!
I traded in my 2ds xl and used the money to preorder New Horizons. It will be my first Animal Crossing game. Everything I have seen looks cute and relaxing. I am thinking I will love the game!Oh, so exciting!
Are you getting the console tailrustedtealeaf?That I am!! I'll get it a few days after release because I didn't want to pay for rush but I'd imagine it'd come in time for the actual game. :P
I think I'll stay off Reddit for a bit now though, I don't need to see all these analysi. Analysies?
Spoiler
I wonder why so many of the NPCs got replaced, though. I miss Nat already :< Daisy Mae is soooo cute, though.
It's all so shiny and pretty :O
What villager/s is everyone hoping to get. I mostly want O'Hare back, and also Bella and Pierce. ^.^

It's all so shiny and pretty :OSpoilerOk, it's time to get cynical about Baby Game. I'm not a fan of them replacing the characters like this. I do like the new designs, but I feel like it's all about marketing. You can't make merchandise of Chip, Joan, and Nat. They're all "ugly". Nobody wants to buy stuff of them. However, CJ, Daisy Mae, and Flick? VERY merchandisable! Everyone on Twitter already loves Flick, drawing tons of fanart of her! When was the last time you saw someone gush about how much they love Nat?
Same with the villagers. I love the horse one at least, and I always love cats. But this batch of villagers they've shown off caters to the crowd who loves those kinds of characters. Think of Marshal, Merengue, Goldie, etc. The "cute" characters. They are even heavily featured in trailers and merchandise. The snow cone-looking bear? The cutesy sheep, the hipster cat? They're all going to be fought over. And if it weren't for amiibo cards, people would probably resort to buying/selling them on eBay like they did with ACNL. People who didn't play ACNL back in 2013 wouldn't understand the Marshall hype, I think. I STILL don't understand the Marshall hype. He's not that cute or unique. He's just a squirrel and one of many smug types you can get.
I guess I'm going to be Old Man Yells At Cloud at this, because ACNH offers a LOT of things I'm excited about, a lot of quality of life improvements, but a big part of Animal Crossing is having villagers you don't like, having ugly villagers. And sometimes you grow to really like them. And if you don't, you can beat them over the head with a net and push them into pitfalls. It's all part of the experience. Being able to call up anyone you want and having all of the new ones be super likeable and not-at-all ugly? Isn't as fun. I guess you don't have to do it if you don't want to but still... These new characters are all "Marshall"-esque... when are we going to get someone who's more like... Prince, for instance? XD It also feels superficial. Instead of befriending and liking anyone who comes into your town because they're nice or cool or something, it's all about the
~ .: * a e s t h e t i c * :. ~. People are going to get all the cutesy villagers solely because they match their pastel fairytale town theme.
Not only that, but it also goes into the "Animal Crossing now is too nice" thing which I wholeheartedly agree on. I talked about this before earlier in the thread how the animals nowadays are too nice and lack and personality. There's no incentive to go and make friends because their personalities all boil down to "Hey neighbour! Beautiful day, huh! I think I'm going to go eat some fruit!". Compare to the other games where the animals would gossip about each other and insult you...
Okay, rant over. XD I just never liked this trend of villagers. Which leads into...
Dumb question for an Animal Crossing newbie:Hmm I don't think there's much you HAVE to do? Even if you have a fair amount of animals, you aren't obligated to take care of them or talk to them or anything. They wander around anyway, so you sort of stumble across them as you play for fun.
What if I want my town/island to remain relatively small with a relatively small population? I just don't want it to get to the point it's like a job to play, like Farmville on Facebook got. :p

The only things that you might feel obligated to do are to participate in the seasonal events (very rare and holidays only), watering wilted flowers (random and usually not overwhelming, dependant on how many flowers you plant), and plucking weeds. In New Leaf, you always had 2-3 weeds a day, I'm sure there will be a set number of them.

If anyone was around for the ACNL thread here, you'll know how much I HATED her. And she would NOT leave, ugh....
That being said, Marshall! I made a ton of bells selling that guy when he came to my town. :devious:
Anyway, I'm late to this thread. I'm really looking forward to the game, wonder if it will drag me away from my island on Dragon Quest Builders 2....

I just hope that stores are able to stay open, at least until I can pick up my preorder copy on Friday.*twitch*
Then I'll have something to do if we all get quarantined.
I feel like Target is considered an essential store?
I called Gamestop before I left work today, about an hour or so after the announcement from the Governor about the shutdowns, and they said they are still open on Friday...I guess we'll see! I'm not particularly worried as I can get my money back afterwards anyway. I just *Stares at Fedex tracking number* I just....want my console.
u_u; I wasn't able to hunt for a console like initially planned because I am in close contact with my dad.If retails are still open and you can head inside I did hear that there may be a small wave of consoles on the 20th but that's sad to hear you didn't get a chance to look. :( I was also hearing about an April shipment being a possibility from a few sources but I'm not sure how reliable that is now.
My console came!!! I'm still going to be picking up a physical copy from Gamestop as they are remaining open.
I've heard some people have issues with their joycons connecting to the Switch (as in, physically, like they are loose in some spots) but mine don't have that issue. A bit bummed I have to rebuy Smash Bros as I guess that wasn't purchased under my account, but I do have Mario Maker 2 and Pokemon Shield on my account.
Adding my code to my siggy if anyone wanted to add me.
I was hoping Gamestop would be able to sell early due to the pandemic. Sadly it seems to be a no go. I just hope they will be open on Friday. Just want this game to relax and forget about real world stress.Apparently Gamestop is open on a technicality, like they are a necessity due to something something Communications? Or they're just ignoring advisories. Either way, they are open. There are just no Midnight releases.
Heads up, don't do what I did.No worries, pole vault is a day x thing. So long as you
Make sure there's a break in the river or you can access majority of the island, as there's no break in my rivers so 2/3 of my island is inaccessible to me until I build a bridge or figure out how to pole vault across a river.
I have 1 pear I could give you. ^^ they grow on one of my friend's island. He gave me two to plant and I only planted one. :) So I can certainly get more later.My coworker has pears actually if you wanted to plant it, but you can certainly still come over and get more peaches! I should have oranges in a few days if no one else does.
All I am missing is an orange. My island has cherries.
Hm... I've visited three or four of the islands with Nook Miles and all of them that had trees with fruit (one didn't) all of them were pears, the same as my native fruit. Guess it's just bad luck?
I had 149 as my turnip price on Monday, and I went ahead and sold them. Not sure I will buy again.
I think there may be a morning price and an afternoon price, so check twice a day to be sure!

:O 149 is nice.
Yes, I've checked morning and afternoon. All prices have been under 63 *grumble*
I hate the stalk market *shakes fist*
I've fallen in love with the hyacinths so I got a ton of those, got some pansies and windflowers too...my sister did just ask me about mums. I thought I remembered them being exclusive to mothers/fathers day?
Lillies?? Did you pick those up from the shop or from a mystery island? I wish I had bought up some mystery island tickets yesterday because I can't go while my resident services tent is being upgraded.
Carnations are the mother's/father's day flower. Mums seem to be regular flowers you can find. Lillies are my native flower. :) I run into them often too on islands. Do you still need them?Oo, I'd love to snag some from you at some point! ^.^ I've got a free day all Friday so I can invite and visit islands all the time then, still looking for pears but my other fruit trees are matured.
I've not found fruit on other islands, so I can't speak to that. (In fact, I've gotten nothing great on my island visits except for bamboo... I guess. )
However, when I've held fruit on my island -- given to me by a friend -- it registered. Or maybe when I planted those fruit. Not quite sure. Wasn't paying attention. But I have my little fruit card filled out.
How many pears do you need? :)Any amount is fine! Shoutout to my coworker for BAILING ON ME.
Does the passport not update with fruit you get from other islands? My native is cherries, but I got peaches from an island. Also apples from "Mom". I planted them, but my passport just shows cherries.The passport itself does not update and will always show your native fruit (likely for selling purposes), but you should have gotten Nook Miles for planting it in your town.
i have red and white hyacinths in the shop, if you'd like them harmonie :)
switch plus, what do you mean? Can you show a screenshot? I don't think I get any prompt...
My nook's cranny doesn't sell roses... maybe one does if it's a native flower to the island?
I'm hoping for more furniture to come out in the updates, I was thinking more in terms of what to unlock...we know Nooks Cranny has the one expansion but is that it? Can I invite Kicks and Label to stay in my town? :/
Also, I thought the Earth day update would be here by now, I didn't know it meant Earth day update.

I remember playing new leaf for quite awhile to get the little pictures of my favorite animals. I'm not sure if that happens in this game?
Hey ladies!I have one of each fruit! My code is in my signature. You can get her code by tapping her profile picture on the Switch's menu screen, one of the options will get her code. You either need her code to give to us, or just to send us friend requests on her switch.
My daughter started playing this game last week. She's a very mature 13 year old. She is currently looking for apples, peaches, and bamboo. She's also interested in any flowers except Mums, lol. She has oranges and the other fruits if people need those.
I'm wondering if she can get a code or two to visit you all? She's tried several of the mystery islands and had no luck. And maybe we can compare turnip prices if you all are interested in that.
Also, we've never visited any other players islands so etiquette tips would be good too. I have no idea how to find her code to give to you either? Any help or ideas would be appreciated. =) Thanks!

Yes, that feature returned. You can also get posters of them to hang on your walls, but that doesn't require a friendship like the pictures do, just going to Harv's island and popping them up there will unlock them.
I believe the picture feature remains the same. Although I've only seen very few reports of it happening, it did return.

Spoilerooooh, the datamine sounds really interesting :O
Have they said anything about Digby and/or Lyle yet? They're my favourite NPCs.
Sooo, the new update has been detailed out! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KpZyexo-ziA)
I think a lot of us will be very pleased!
:) I'm glad I could help out!
I'm excited. I just got my first purple hydrangea pop up. It came from a red x yellow hydrangea. I was aiming for orange, but... I'll take it. XD
Hydrangea? There are hydrangeas in the game? :blink:Yes! I have seeds in my shop.

I dropped my extras near the entrance, but you can buy them too if you would prefer that.
^_^ I'd like it, if you don't mind..
:) thank you!
Aw, well, I thought what I saw was really lovely!
Everytime I see a new island I feel like revamping mine yet again..
holy cow. x_x I had judy in my campsite today. I still miss my deer babies, but... I'll take her! *faint* Who could say no to an ombre kawaii looking bear cub?!
Someone gave me this site for some of the items to give to villagers. https://nookplaza.net/tools
I'm gonna start working on those pictures, lol. T_T;;; ayeee..

So that would include birthday gifts, I assume?
I have Cherry in my town and her birthday is tomorrow. I assumed that since she has one of the starter houses I'd pick out something I have from what her house is supposed to be and give that to her. But clothing would be better?
Good luck with your island hopping! :)
Did you end up with anyone good? :)
Thank you so much, sorry I wasn't sure the best place to drop the flowers XD
I didn't know this, but apparently if you give someone a Pitfall seed, when they bury it and dig it up again, they'll be prompted to learn the recipe! Very cool!
I keep getting repeat recipes from my villagers... I hope I haven't run out of recipes to learn! :yikes:

I keep getting repeat recipes from my villagers... I hope I haven't run out of recipes to learn! :yikes:
Something I learned recently, you need different personality types in your town! Only certain types teach certain recipes, like Cranky villagers teaching you how to make a pot, or Peppies teaching you cardboard recipes. I didn't have a Sisterly villager for two months so I was missing out on so many recipes! Deirdre finally taught me things like the apple TV, iron workbench, and the iron garden bench. :)
There's also seasonal recipes, like shell-themed things for summer and acorn-themed things for fall.
Are you all enjoying the wedding event? For those who haven't partaken yet, it seems to be daily, although I don't know where that stops and what happens afterward because I doubt they could cover the whole month with new design concepts for the wedding concept alone, but IDK that for sure.
I've not bothered to participate in the wedding event yet, would you reccomend it? Are any of the items good?
The wedding event yesterday was so cute! I've been getting silly about my photos though, I made the last few ones selfies. :lmao:

Sets lacking? Nothing a few anatomical models can't fix. :devious:
Is anyone else getting a little bored with their game? I've designed my island and like how it looks, and I like lots of my villagers. I have an amiibo card coming in the mail (Deirdre) because I think I want to move her in, but the houses are all full otherwise. I finally made 5 stars and have the golden watering can, yay. My museum fossil exhibit is full, but not the rest.I've still not played since late April. I'm ok with that honestly; I got my fill of the base game in the month after it came out and I've just not felt like playing it, so I'm not forcing it. Maybe by the time I feel like playing it again, the updates will have all come out and the game will feel fleshed out fully like New Leaf.
Well, the good news is that we're near the end of the timeframe for the updates shown in the last video. The hope is that new/returning features will be added in July and beyond.
Datamine spoilers:SpoilerAnd if the datamine is anything to go by, they're pretty good - Swimming/undersea creatures like in NL, Brewster and the Gyroids, and vegetables we can grow.
Of course, with COVID-19, things may get delayed.
One of my favourite things in Animal Crossing is collecting furniture, and ACNH is really lacking. I've seen every piece of furniture the game offers within the first month of playing. I think I'm just about complete when it comes to DIY recipes. The only things I'm missing are things like wreaths and crowns (which you only get from bottles AFAIK), and seasonal stuff.Yeah, you're right! I hadn't thought about it but I definitely am missing the furniture. I must be a city gal, lol. Yes, Nintendo, please fix Redd! I think he came once a week in New Leaf and that would be great to do again.
Not sure if they'll fix Redd, but I think it would be a good idea. I've heard a lot of people say they haven't seen him since the update came out. I time travel, and even then, I almost never see him!

Maybe by the time I feel like playing it again, the updates will have all come out and the game will feel fleshed out fully like New Leaf.Yeah, you raise a good point; not forcing it is good. I don't want to grow to dislike the game, because although I'm running out of things to do, I do really like it! My villagers are the highlight for me and they say/do such funny things.
Yeah, I need Redd's statues to decorate the area around my house but he shows up so rarely, and even when he does, he doesn't have what I want.If you are willing to jump around with days, I believe if you go back to the day Redd comes he does show up and his stock does change.
I've tried to get some - fake or real - on Nookazon, but people are asking a lot.
Since the game has been out a while... Could anyone tell me if it's worth me buying? Should I wait? This is first AC game (excluding the Japanese-only N64 game, although I have played and enjoyed it) that I haven't rushed out to buy. The island thing didn't pull me in like I thought it would.
I saw Ragamuffin's post about the lack of furniture and I have to say... That was probably my favourite aspect of NL (my favourite AC game). I've heard that you can customize the island shape(?) but I don't think I'm all that bothered about it, I was happy just working with the randomized tiles NL gave me anyway. I also enjoyed completing villager tasks and interacting with them, but I'm under the impression there's not as much interacting.
Also, I don't have Nintendo Online - is that going to be a drawback?
Since the game has been out a while... Could anyone tell me if it's worth me buying? Should I wait? This is first AC game (excluding the Japanese-only N64 game, although I have played and enjoyed it) that I haven't rushed out to buy. The island thing didn't pull me in like I thought it would.
I saw Ragamuffin's post about the lack of furniture and I have to say... That was probably my favourite aspect of NL (my favourite AC game). I've heard that you can customize the island shape(?) but I don't think I'm all that bothered about it, I was happy just working with the randomized tiles NL gave me anyway.

It really, really depends... that sentence alone doesn't help, but... :biggrin:
I love gardening in this game, I love terraforming, I love placing paths, I love being able to give my villagers yards. That's the best part of the game. If you enjoy doing things like that, it might be worth it, but lower your expectations...? Because yes, there's not a lot of furniture, so if you like decorating your house, you might have a hard time.
If you like running errands and talking to villagers, you're not going to get anything worthwhile here. I've played since the game came out, and have only delievered a present to a villager ONE time. Sometimes villagers will ask to play "treasure hunt", but very infrequently, and that's only when you have a mid...ish? friendship. If you have a high friendship with someone, they will probably never ask you to do anything but buy clothes from them at high prices. You don't get to bury or dig up time capsules, you don't get to run errands, you don't get to play hide and seek. In ACNL it became a joke how villagers would ask for fruit, but at least it was something to do. Villagers never ask anything from you in this game. Maybe they'll ask for a wharf roach every two months if you're lucky. Oh, ACNL had petitions too, didn't it? Nothing like that here, either. And animals don't want to set up appointments for you to visit their house and vice versa. In fact, animals NEVER visit your house at all!
Any other Animal Crossing might be a better experience right now, especially New Leaf. I think ACNH would be better, for fans of the series at least, later down the road when there's more content.
As for NO, again, it depends. It might actually enhance your experience if you want to take it slow. With ACNH and the internet, it's too easy to collect things and earn money. You can pay off your entire loan if you invest in turnips, there's always SOMEONE online with their gates open, 500+ bells per turnip, and you can easily find them with sites like Turnip Exchange. If you liked the minigames in ACNL on Tortimer's Island, there's nothing like that in this game. If you invite friends over to your island there's absolutely nothing to do but hit each other with nets.

I think I'm finally beginning to lose interest. =(
Oh well, it has been a good run.
On the Diving update: The Diving feature is implemented solidly. It's been a long time since I've played NL, but I don't remember it being quite as intuitive in that game.
On the Gulliver update: I'm really disappointed. NH is really lacking in furniture, right? Well, NH did get some new items from Gulliver, BUT so did Pocket Camp and Pocket Camp got the lion's share while we got just gimmicky items in NH. It's very frustrating. In PC they got furniture that would really spice up outdoor decorating - fountains, tables with umbrella, fencing, other neat decorations. What did NH get? The cannon, treasure chest and other gimmicky nonsense like that (plenty of outfits, though).
It's just really frustrating. Our furniture and outdoor furniture options are so limited, and now we're really getting snubbed.
Weird question ... is there any faster way to get pine cones/acorns? I shook almost all of my trees today, and I got one pine cone. One! Am I doing something wrong? :P
I fired up my game for the first time in forever to get into the autumn goodies. I shook every tree (aside from those trees that are surrounded by a large amount of flowers. :rolleyes: ) and didn't get even a single pinecone or acorn.I found a few just by shaking a tree more than a few times it seem but yeah the drop rates are bad.
Sounds like Nintendo needs to fix the drop rates.
I finally picked up the game again. And finally started to sort out my island! Getting all the shroom diys was crazy :shocked:
Would anyone like help me get pears, apples and peaches (I accidentally ate those when they came in the mail :blush: )?
I'm proud of my pink pony pixel art, and I wanted to share my MLP stable in ACNH :) My friend code is SW-5446-9939-3189 if you want to be ACNH buddies - I play Pokemon Sword too.
