ACNH Pet Peeves and Petty Complaints Thread

[Moritz]

I know some people may defend this

As a huge new horizons fan, not even I defend this.
I know its not the same as going to someone else's island. But even going to harvs island.
When you're on the DLC island, you get the option to go home, or to harvs island.

When you're flying from your island. You get the option to go to work, but if you want harvs island you have to say you want to fly. And then it's in that set of options.

Why can they make getting to harvs island a simple press of the button from one location, but not from the other.

The whole airport menu system is a mess.

I really hope they address this in the next AC game whenever that will be. Even in local co-op online it still takes time to visit someone. Just take me to the island and not force me to watch loading screens or stop what everyone else is doing just to visit an island.

I was just thinking about it and my petty complaint is that they didn’t bring back the mouth of truth. I want it to make a scary face at me when I put my hand in it’s mouth

Lottie: do you want one floor or 2?

Speaking of 2 floors: I just found out once you suggest a 2nd floor to a villager, you can't remove it. Feels like an oversight more than a petty complaint but still. Kinda bummed.

Oh shoot really? I never knew that but thanks for letting me know that right now

I've yet to find a way to remove the 2nd floor once you've suggested/agreed to it. I could be wrong but I scoured the internet yesterday and found nothing but others complaining about it. So yeah.

Always go for 1 floor during the consultation. You can always suggest a 2nd floor on the spot anyways.

I hate when I go to Harv's but forget a piece of furniture in the house lol. Like I forgot to pick it up or put it in storage... I went to harv's like 4 times today

Will pond fish please say still for long enough for me to line up my shot?
Theyre so annoying

 

[Jassiii]

This is more of a funny complaint than an actual one but I always laugh when I run to my house to grab an item realquick and one of my villagers drop by for a visit like you were just halfway across the island in the way of me terraforming why are you here LMAO

 

[EmmaFrost]

I hate that the HHP island’s vines and moss don’t replenish fully the next day. it makes it harder to get vines for crafting purposes

Okay I have to rant about this because this is one thing about the DLC that annoys me. Whenever you restart your island or add a new user you have to go through the tutorial again. Let me just say its so slow. Looking back it was cute the first time, but now its like when you've seen it already it just doesn't give you the option to skip it. I don't get why games these days don't allow you to skip tutorials when you already know what to do. Its always "Did you know you can do this" or "Have you tried doing this" like I get it and I know how it works but I don't need to be reminded every single time.

The whole reason I'm ranting about this is because I wanted to do the Resort again with my users but the problem is that I have to hear the tutorial over and over again. It does nothing but take up so much time. I know when I get passed this tutorial it will start getting better, but seriously there really needs to be an option to skip tutorials when you seen them already.

Who actually likes Kapp'n's singing? Who sits through it?
I'm glad there's at least an option to skip but why couldn't they make it so you just needed to press B once instead of mashing it?

I feel like the same reason why you have to button mash to craft faster. To buy new joycons lol.
Seriously though, I really wish they didn't encourage button mashing.

Why not just craft faster to begin with or pushing a different button during the animation to make it go faster.

OMG the crafting too! I fully agree. If they made it skipable, even they knew no one wanted to sit through it.

His songs during NewLeaf were fun. I've seen a few I like in NH, but most have been toned down so hard for PC or something. I miss him talking about his love of cucumbers and how they make him gassy. Or how he would randomly fart mid-song and blame it on the boat squeaking.

Ah! Interesting! I did notice him not tell me how I've gotten cuter on the way over so they must have toned him down.

Fun fact RE: crafting.
You don't need to mash. Tap B twice, and hold it down the second time you tap. Wish the same was true of Kapp'n, but it is what it is, I guess.

afaik there's no knitting items, which is a huge travesty for all of our Type A normal villagers QQ

Petty complaint: I love that villagers are cooking and giving us recipes but it's funny when they are tossing something in a cast iron frying pan and it turns out to be carrot juice or a peach smoothie, lol.

OMGosh, a basket of yarn would be so cute especially if it were color customizable, like pastel or autumn colors.

It isn't a basket, and the yarn color can't be changed. BUT!
Glass Jar can be filled with yarn. :>
