Dumb question for an Animal Crossing newbie:

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

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.
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.

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!
