AC:NH ~ What We Know So Far

[adeline]

Is that what she said? Maybe I need to rewatch but I thought she was referring to your ability to have your house on the beach.

The more I hear about NH the more I’m excited for it! It’s very different to what I expected but I love everything we’ve heard so far.

So I'm guessing we can place furniture outside next to trees now?

Yes. It appears you can place any furniture item inside and outside.

Not sure if anyone mentioned it yet, but it looks like villagers can wear long sleeves (not sure if it was in pocket camp but in NL it automatically changed it into a tank), and the sheep now also can wear shirts (also not sure if it was in pocket camp, but in NL and previous games it changed it into a scarf)

That's why the sheep look so weird lol, nice catch.

when they dug up the clam in the treehouse the description said it made 'great clam chowder' I'm probably misinterpreting this, but could this be a sign of a cooking system?

I really like it so far. But Im kinda afraid there isn't gonna be a museum/encyclopedia for bugs and stuff.. it would be sad to not have the art thing as well.

I think that was just the item specific message for that particular item, because it was followed by the comment about fish bait. I think if there was a cooking system it would have mentioned that the clam chowder gave them an idea for a recipe, like the fish bait thing.

Lighting on the characters hair, along with the fact their hair can move.

New styles in dresses, and sneakers look more like sneakers instead of flat shoes.

I think probably the NookPhone they've been teasing in Treehouse will open up a feature in the released game that has a bug/fish collecting encyclopedia, and then eventually you can build a museum. That's one of my favorite parts of the game too, so I hope it comes back.

that's what I was thinking too. Kind of a shame because I would love to cook like in botw

I didn't see this on the OP, but Kotaku talked to Nintendo who confirmed you can choose your skin tone: https://kotaku.com/animal-crossing-new-horizons-will-let-you-decorate-the-1835421595

Do you think storage would increase as soon as we get a backpack?

 

[adeline]

It looked like there was a workbench placed in front of the character's home and also one inside Fuschias home.

I feel they will probably be purely decorative but since the one we see is a PC item it gives me hope that you can somehow move items over from it.

I love everything I have seen!!! Love the graphics and gameplay! I was hesitant until I saw the trailers but I?m hyped now for the game!! Can?t wait to get it ...I?m going to have to save my shekels LOL

Spoiler: Love the soft shades and omg! The water!

Spoiler: Woo! Laying dirt paths and adorable Fuschia with new furniture❤️

Spoiler: Well, Nook is still a Crook! But ain?t he sweet in his Island duds!?

Yep! I?m definitely hyped for this game!

One thing that I noticed and found pretty cool: The fact that the eyes, or more like the pupils, of your
character are actually moving. Like, when that female villager in the Treehouse gameplay looked at her
phone, the eyes/pupils really looked down. In the pervious AC games, the eyes/pupils always stayed in
the same position. Speaking of the eyes: When you look closely to the pupils of the female villager from
the Direct trailer, you can see that her pupils are also more detailed, like different shades of blue can
be seen here.

Also, the houses of the villagers now looking similar like they looked back in Wild World and City Folk,
which I really welcome.

Also, I think the shadows had actual shape? Correct me if I'm wrong. But when the girl was standing outside her tent, like, right outsidr her doorway, you could see a human shaped shadow casted behind her.

Just watched the video again, and yeah there is definitely shape to that shadow. When you hold tools even then it cast a shadow. So, hints of dynamic lighting?
