ACNH Pet Peeves and Petty Complaints Thread

Why are the fish models so tiny while the bug ones are huge? I know Flick makes both, but the blatent favoritism is ridiculous when a grasshopper is bigger than a shark. We need someone to make proper (lifesize) fish models, preferably ones you can hang on the wall.

This bothers me too. They look good in spite of the size...untill you turn them and see how flat they look. I was really disappointed with the betta model :(. i thought the tail would look puffy but when I rotated it, I saw it was flat :(
 
They should have made the soccer ball kickable like in the original game. We even have soccer goals but everything just sits there as decoration and there's no way to actually "play" anything with a friend or on your own. Such a missed opportunity!
I don't think this would work with a furniture piece. The way they work, dynamics, weight, ect and because the ball from AC could fall into the water and be lost until you reloaded. I would like the ball from PG to come back though.

Yeah I noticed that to when I had a few fish and bug models done. I haven't really taken advantage of their visits whenever they do come, so I only have a few of each. I never really thought much about it, but it does make sense that Flick would be biased with the models. But I don't think they should had sacrificed a part of the game for an npc's character/personality. Especially one that is one of my least liked newcomers.

I guess they'd need make the goal item "hollow" so the ball could go inside, and we can place a fence to prevent it from falling in a river? I highly doubt they'd do that extra coding but it's nice to imagine actually having fun with the ball. Imagine they even made the basketball hoop usable. In my dreams lol.

I just cringe when you move the ball and... it slides heavily 😭

In Population Growing (the 1st AC for the GC) they had a ball that just spawned somewhere on the town. They wouldn't need to re-code furniture. They'd just need to make a separate graphic/model that isn't really considered a furniture piece. The animal villagers would also play with it to. Which I found pretty cool.

 
I wish that I could give individual villagers a custom design outfit without needing to put it up at able’s myself (most of the designs aren’t mine and contacting the people to hang it up isn’t an option and a lot of them are from NL or HHD even the ones that are mine) and risking other villagers wearing. Still wish i could use them to customize objects like in NL too.
 
Don't force yourself to do things you don't want to do. That can only really make you not enjoy yourself. Coming from my experience when not liking certain events I would just skip it if it doesn't interest me. My best solution is to find someone who has Rover's Photo as a trade item.
Agreed! This is what I did. I didn't even touch the May Day event this year. The prize didn't interest me enough to waste my time. Technically I skipped Bunny Day too for the same reason.

funny thing is, with me, i din't get his photo in the mail after the 29th of april.. i only got his suitcase... :unsure:
unless you don't get the photo right away?

I think if you took part in the event last year, you'll get the photo this year since last year you would have gotten the suitcase. Someone can correct me on this as I think there are ways around this but I'm not sure what.

i didn't play last year...

cause i didn't have the game yet last year :>
 
I was making a wallpaper for a room where there was this pattern only for the bottom. Forgot that the patterns don't place like that and now it looks off, wish there was a way to design wallpaper without this happening lol

unless there is and I totally missed that
 
I'd like those father day aprons now rather than waiting until June.

I just noticed that there is no way to trade bugs, fish and sea creatures with your friends. I mean you cannot drop them, you can only place them, but only you can pick it up and not your friends when they come to your island. Also you cannot wrap them up in gifts either. So I am just wondering why can't we do that? I mean there are so many fish and bugs that people have a hard time getting you would think we would be able to trade between them with all the other stuff, but we can't do that.
 
although, to me, it's not really petty....

i really hope nintendo gives us even more custom/pro design slots after what we got recently with the extra 50 slots...... at least another 50... that'll give us 1,150... i think...

cause when i get to putting in the ' the path ' designs, i'll have no room left...
i already kinda pushed it by putting in the mini-golf designs for pashmina... a few custom designs had to be given up for that...
 
Do the villagers no longer clap when you play instruments? 😭 I just visited Kiki and Diana was there as well. I was playing around with the piano and when I stopped nobody clapped, lol. It’s such a small thing but I always liked when they clapped after I played instruments in New Leaf 😂

Also, I really wish laying down paths didn’t muffle sounds. I love having this multicoloured flower path border the brick pathway but it bums me out that i lose the little click clack sound by doing that. 😔
 
Why can we shake a tree while holding everything BUT a shovel? 🤔



(I know it's technically because we hold the shovel with 2 hands, but come on)
 
Okay I just need to say this, because I really got annoyed when I saw this. So when I went to my own dream island on my new island from the 2nd switch I saw that all my users were in Swimsuits. I am just like "What? Thats not supposed to happen". So you know those wand outfits you have on your character? Apparently wand outfits do not get saved on the dream island. I am just baffled that this is even thing and I discovered it recently.

I have to say the way they did wand outfits in this game is so flawed. Its like no matter what you try to do to change your clothes its just annoying. Constantly having to take off the wand outfit just to use the changing room at Able sisters or the wardrobe is so annoying. To add insult to injury like I said before it doesn't get saved in the dream islands. Wand outfits seriously need to be improved, because this is just a joke at this point.
