ACNH Pet Peeves and Petty Complaints Thread

When trying to plant flowers or trees, I wish they had squares on the ground so you could line them up evenly. It's the same with floor lights outside, I can spend ages trying to get them in the exact spot where I want them.

I was in Roscoe's house the other day and he said I could buy anything, I wanted to buy a 'Welcome' sign on his wall, however, there was a table in front of it and every time I tried to buy the sign he thought it was the table I wanted.
Also, that villagers give you fake paintings, on Monday I put some of Redd's fake art into the bin including the quaint painting, then the next day Al gave it to me! Did he retrieve it from the bin or just coincidence?

Kind of annoying that you're forced to do Wedding Day the first time you go over to Harv's island. I just wanted to go to the markets. Harv gave me this long winded introduction and then there are two options about helping him. Yes and yes. This is stupid. There are so many times in this game that the options have little affect because you're forced to say yes anyway.

Yes to doing Wedding shots, yes to taking a DIY you may already have, yes to helping Gulliver/Varr/Wisp, ect.

I went to Harv's island the first time with my second character to have Cyrus customize a pattern onto a furniture piece. Was forced into doing the Wedding day shots. So I did them quickly and halfhearted. I was disappointed to find out that the mug furniture piece doesn't customize in the same way that the NL one does.

In the NL version the mug's customized qr pattern wraps all around the mug. So I used it to created a frothy beer for a pub. This time it just has the front and back with the sides showing white. The illusion is lost. This is the pattern I was trying to use. I also found someone else that made the same pattern for NH, but it can't work.

Nintendo should have let us mass remove custom designs all over your island
and it would have been nice if we could have gotten at least 50 slots of inventory space in your pockets
I know New Leaf players say we were lucky we could get 40 because New Leaf and even worse the older games didn't have that much but if Nintendo seems to have made New Horizons be more focused on designing our islands it only makes sense to have even more space following the 2.0 update since now we have even more items and people are constantly moving a bunch of things around

This was a huge missed opportunity for the mug. I can only imagine how designs for the mug could’ve been used had they wrapped around rather than cover one small section.

It would be nice if the Mario pipes were available in more colors or sizes and would only work with the same color/size so that they would be more useful. Like, I could use a set of green ones to connect the museum and shop for selling my duplicate fossils and have a different color set from my house to the orchard so that I could get there quickly to gather fruit for villager gifting.

Yeah it doesn't make sense either because in the Mario series you don't only see green pipes they come in several different colors, they could have at the very least made both a green and yellow pipe since those appear to be the most common colors

Pier fish should not be a thing.
Slim chance in a tiny area where you hardly go and its unlikely anything will spawn in the first place?

I hate them so much

 

[kindakooky]

Still bothers me how Double Door Fridges/Freezers/Coolers (just to name a few) Count as changing clothes instead of storing actual food items.

See, this has never bothered me, but it still just makes me giggle when you open say, a fridge, and the dialog box comes up saying, “Should I change?"

I am tired of my villagers barging into my house every dang time I go inside! It is beyond annoying. The last couple times i went in I ran right to another room so I could ignore them when they show up. Now I have a stove,storage shed and crafting table outside together so I can cook and craft be able to get materials for it without going in my house at all. I am also going to put a wardrobe outside for the same reason. It's sad I can't even enjoy my house anymore. Thanks nintendo

It would be nice if there is a "do not enter" or "not disturb" or "busy" door item, and if it was on your door no visiter would enter it. It would be good because you can put some things on the door now, so it would help if they had it.

(or maybe if it was on your door they will knock, and note came up like: "Molly would like to visit. Can she come in?" with options "come in!" or "I'm a bit busy, maybe another time.")

I know they finish with updates now though but it would be nice maybe next time.

Events, sitting on outside furniture or on the ground outside resident services or sitting on furniture in their houses should not block you from being able to gift villagers.

I don't like that I have to smack villagers fishing in order to get them to stop fishing, but at least there's a work around..

They already have a mechanism where if a villager is sitting down in their house when you want to give them a gift from another villager they say they need to stand up for this, so they should have made it possible to always gift. I don't know about you, but I'm not going to refuse a gift just because I'm sitting down or in the middle of an event.

Having to plant down flowers and trees when getting a 3 star rating for KK slider. I don't have time for this BS when I just want to terraform my island already

 

[angelcat621]

Not being able to put cushions on furniture irritates me. Why can't I put a whoopie cushion on a chair for an unsuspecting villager to sit on? Totally unacceptable.

 

[angiepie]

Not being able to put planted flowers in storage. Majorly annoying.

 

[istantangyforever]

no trees/flowers in storage :,(

Yea it bothers me as well. It would also be nice if we could put stuffed animals on chairs and sofas.

I don’t get why we can’t put flowers and bushes in storage. We could put flowers in storage in NL. It would make decorating for seasons easier.

After decorating Ione's house in HHP, I want her on my island. Problem is, I like everyone currently there too much to replace. Ughhhhhhhh how can we narrow it down to ten villagers??????

 

[Bulbadragon]

I think all the regular flower crowns are too small. The only one that's the proper size is the sunflower orderable one. Everything else sits on top of your head instead of going around it, which I think is weird, and only looks good with the high bun hair.

Why is it that when you don't have already have a recipe that a villager is crafting, they ask you first before handing you the recipe, but when you do already have the recipe, they force the recipe card on you anyway?

That has given me so many duplicates I don’t know what to do with. It’s such a pain to sell them to Nook for a measly 10 bells. From memory, I think that’s how much you get for them. Still, it’s not a lot.
