ACNH Pet Peeves and Petty Complaints Thread

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.
It's honestly just routine for me at this point. I usually find them crafting while I'm going around the map searching for fossils and other things to sell. It does get rather vexing when I don't really have a lot of space in my inventory, though.
 
I've still to unlock the Able Sisters on my 2nd island, so Mable shows up outside Resident Services every few days. My complaint is that you can't try the items on like you can in Able Sisters. I like to see how my character is going to look before I buy.
 
Why can't we see NPC's location on the map (expect for Redd)? Also, I wish I could see where I left my storage shed, I was carrying it about with me when I was decorating my island and now I can't find it! :unsure:
 
I hate hate hate how fruit falls in NH. It’s so simple but that makes it more annoying. I mean when the tree is surrounded. There could be multiple empty spaces two tiles away but then one fruit just poofs from existence because that fruit is on the opposite side. I’m pretty sure in the older games as long as there was space then the fruit could fall further away and wasn’t concerned with which side it was falling from.

Example, on a coconut tree the right side is obstructed by two tiles wide of flowers, the top and bottom also are, but the left side is obstructed by nothing. The fruit on the right side just disappears anyway.
 
Not really a problem with NH specifically, but my Joycons have started to drift, and it's gotten so bad that I can't even do the bell rock thing anymore. And my usual tricks for getting around the Drift have stopped working, too. It's quite frustrating.
 
I'm trying to make a rock garden and this is entirely my fault for being picky. But I can't get the correct rock to spawn!! I want the rock that is shaped like it's pointing to the right. I've time-skipped like 2 months into the future, one day at a time, and every time the rock that spawns is the wrong shape! Why is this taking so long!?

Update: It spawned after skipping another 2 days. I guess complaining helps??

A little part of me thinks it would be good if we didn't have to completely upgrade our house to six rooms. I think I could make a really sweet house with less. I'll definitely upgrade to the full six rooms though, because I obviously want to customise my mailbox, roof, door, and siding and get additional storage! I wonder if there was a reason they tied the house upgrades to exterior decoration and storage?
 
Why can't we give photos of ourselves to residents? I would love to see a photo of Buck and I sitting out on a wall or table at Buck's house!
That’s a really cute idea. I would love to have photos with our villagers that we could display not just in villager houses but around the island.
 
Don't understand why villagers get all dressed up during birthdays. Guys, it's a birthday party, not a formal wedding. Completely unnecessary and excessive. And I can't stand how garbled and terrible the town tune is when they're in that "happy" state or whatever-you-call-it, rather than it just being a simple happy jingle, as in the older games; they did this in NL, too, but I don't understand why it was something that needed to be changed in the first place.

I don't think I've dressed up for someone's birthday party since I was little lol. Personally I think it's cute.

I personally agree, I like seeing them do things out of the ordinary and I used to get dressed up for my b-day parties as well through middle school
 
i turned the 'box sofa' items all black, and when i put them together i noticed the two gold bars across the back; sooo i thought i could put it together with the diner counter table because It also has that pattern BUT the Entire diner series has the bars on it GRAY. not gold like the sofas!!
@_@

it might look cool IF lol *and with the right wallpaper and carpet*

Mabel should show up each and every Saturday and Sunday, and one random day Monday-Friday, for a total of 3 days a week.
 
I miss when villagers would ask u what ur bday was and personal traits about yourself kinda thing.

and when Redd would make you type out a password to enter his shop

Is it just me or is it harder to find different sea critters in this game? I'm coming across the same ones, even though I'm using guides to make sure I'm searching at the right times.
