Same! I actually shut my eyes and just listen. If I look, the movements sike me out and I press A too early.

I literally button mash most of the npc. They all talk too much. Their text is bloated and unnecessary. Flick and CJ are def the bread winners. Saharah to. I never really bought a lot of rugs in this game, so I never really dealt with it that much, but they actually did an update to fix this and it was just so you wouldn't be kicked out and could keep buying rug/wallpaper.

I really don't understand why they couldn't just cut down on the menu options. It would save so much time than just mashing A so many times through the dialogue. You heard so many times, you don't need to keep hearing it so many times. Like someone already said Orville is seriously the worst NPC to talk to. He really doesn't say anything new. He just asks you the same questions like "Do you want to Fly, Where do you want to go?" "Oh is this the island you want to go too?" Like get to the point already. I also hate it when he reminds me that I have a Nook Miles ticket on me. Like do I have to hear this for like the 500th time?!

Fish got away a bunch of times today and yesterday in spite of my attempt to "listen" instead of "watch" because I was too slow to pull in the reel. I'm giving up on the "Cast Master" achievement unless the time for fish escape is extended, because there's no way I could pull it in that fast. The fish runs away practically one second or less before I could reel it in. It doesn't happen everytime, thankfully, but there's no way I could pull off consecutive pulls.
This totally reminds me of the annoying motion sensors in "Let's Go Pikachu" and the similarly challenging consecutive chain combos, how Pokemon could run away if you fail at the motion-sensor capturing too many times (which I often do). I think this is more of a Nintendo Switch complaint now than an ACNH one... Not relaxing at all.

Maybe it'd be just me, but I've always felt the reaction time for bigger fish is less than smaller fish. If true, you can just aim to catch the smaller fish. I've completed the cast master 3 times in total now, and the key has always been finding a quiet room with zero distractions, and just meditating on the sound only. Watching the fish moving back and forth introduces too much anxiety for me.

Thanks, I'll try that. I think you're right - the bigger fish seems to be harder to catch. The problem is finding multiple smaller fishes at the same time, even with bait. Oh well. I might try it someday, but I'm not someone who likes to play under pressure.
I 100% agree with this. I've tried fishing without sound multiple times because I've wanted to listen to other music, but I always manage to miss a handful of fish and eventually I just give up and plug my earbuds back into my switch LOL.

I hate that the fish tanks are not transparent. They were transparent in all past AC games, why change it now?
Also don’t like how K.K. sets up in the plaza, right in front of the door. Such s fire saefty hazard, he needs to be fined.
The tank in the museum that holds the dorado and other fish us so… empty. Just 2 tree trunks and like 5 fish swimming around in such a huge tank. Do they plan on adding more fish? I miss river eel.

A bit peeved that you can't craft things from your storage at home, that you have to put the mats in your pocket. Oh well. It's an extra step, no biggie. But it would've been a neat feature. Just saying.

I get why they don't allow any villagers to spawn on other islands if you don't have any open house spots on your main, but man, with so many villagers out there, kinda wish I could just rotate them through whenever I feel like so that I could meet most of them. lol Like imagine, right? You just buy a Nook Mile ticket every night and have a rando visiting your island every morning. lmao It would be chaos for sure, but also kinda fun.

I'm worried that I'd get bored of this game pretty quickly. lol As a casual gamer, I get bored of most video games easily. Lots of Steam refunds in my history. And the thing is, I'm just trying to picture myself having completely upgraded the island, and all that's left is to finish the museum collections and collecting furniture/clothing sets, which means I'd only be doing a couple of things everyday:
1. Earn bells
2. Collect item sets
3. Fill out my "Nook Mileage Rewards List"
That's it. Any other activities are sub-categories of the three things above. And I do hate repetitiveness in my games, especially grinding. I guess I could always meet new visitors once I get my Campground set up, but that's probably the only interesting thing that I could see myself doing for a long time.
I feel like I'd probably switch to New Leaf in a month or so once I start to get bored. lol I'm already meeting this guy this Saturday to buy a second-hand limited edition of 3DS XL with the Animal Crossing skin, so there's that...
I wish there's more to do, like how in New Leaf, like how you get to collect Dr. Shrunk's jokes in New Leaf. That seems like a lot more fun than filling out your collections. Even the café in New Leaf seems intriguing. Wish there's a café on my island. I haven't got Isabelle yet, but I hope she does more than just report on daily events. Like, make it so that I look forward to learning something new everyday, instead of just logging in and collecting stuff.

You know this just bothers me about Furniture Variants. Like sometimes you can customize them and other times you can't. For example you can actually customize a "Wheelchair" with different colors or custom designs if you want to. May I ask why can't we do that for most of the other furniture variants? Its so annoying trying to get colors of variants you want and they are locked behind different island color variants.
This is why I always restart my 2nd island just so I can get different variants of furniture, but its annoying because sometimes I end up getting the same color I had on the last island. This would not bother me so much if there was a way to customize all furniture items without having to do all of this nonsense.

Agreed. There is no rhyme or reason to what can and cannot be customized.
Also, I get that they wanted us to use multiplayer or wait for Redd in order to find variants, but I wish that our default variants would at least change up annually to allow us access to different variants, especially for Nook Mile items. I don’t think this is too much to ask.

Well I know there is trading out there, but its just becomes a hassle when I have to use a lot of Nook Mile Tickets just to get variants I want. I grinded so much of that last year and I don't really wanna burn myself out from having to grind back up them again. The 2nd island is doing me so much better, because at least I can gift myself the furniture variants that I can get on the 2nd island that I can't get on the main island.
Also you're right, I don't see why they can't do it. I mean this would work so much well if we can have our custom designs on all the furniture items and it would create a lot more variety and it will give people a reason to buy more furniture items.
So this just screams oversight. Like why are we forced to just take diy from our villagers when we have it, but you can refuse ones you don't have. Like who would refuse a diy they don't have?
@RoxasFan20 Reading your comment and I agree. It also makes me come to the conclusion that both of our points are simply because they want to push their paid online.

You're going to need to craft me something for me to consider giving you the answer to that question.
Let me guess, you'll request something that requires a lot of materials that I don't have so I have to time travel forward another day just to get a new option, hoping it's easier than the last. ;w; This freaking game.
I want the szechuan sauce Corrie. Give me the szechuan sauce.
