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.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!
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.
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.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?

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.
