ACNH Pet Peeves and Petty Complaints Thread

I really wish I could ride a scooter or a bicycle around the island instead of running all over the place.
Maybe we could drive one of those cars that we can order! I feel so weird having my car parked in my yard!

Although, this is definitely one of those times where I could walk to where I’m going faster! 😄
 
I wish there was more to do, I already finished decorating my whole island. so I dont know what to do now. I havent played for a while cuz of that
 
Why, in the name of Arceus/Your Resident Rep, is the RNG so self aware for me!?! I recently reset my island because my RNG was HORRID. I needed 2 more villagers for my theme (villager-exclusive) to work, and the thought bubble would not land on the villagers I wanted it to (which were Zucker and Whitney). Here's hoping my new island will have less horrid RNG!
 
I wish they had new fruits or at least tropical fruit. I like to have a variety of trees, also the dead tree from ACNL looked good in some areas. This game has the most customization for the outside area in the series, yet they someone missed out on adding new fruit. Also you are on an island how could they forget tropical fruits lol
 
My pet peeve is the phrase "pet peeve." ;)

"One of these days, I'm going to buy a dog and name him Peeve, so I can introduce him to friends in the thrill of indignation with, 'This is my pet, Peeve'."---William Safire, from On Language. (In due course he took to referring to "My pet, Peeve, an information retriever" . . . )

agreed, also they added the dead tree as an item but I really wish they would have just incorporated it into the trees lol cuz obviously it makes it feel fake (and you cant cut them down)
 
Frankly, I wish the villagers would learn and play more games than "High Card/Low Card."

I'd also like more fruits and less turnips!!!! (Hands up to everyone else who despises turnips in real life . . . )
Yeah them getting rid of hide and seek from the previous game was so disappointing. The treasure hunt isn't charming since there isn't really much interaction with the villagers as there is with the hide and seek.

I know you're talking about the card game, just adding to it that I miss the games they took out.
 
Re-Tail is a blessing and a curse. Im glad I don't have to hunt down the exact version of an item I want anymore, but now I have just been back and forth traveling to my island and Harv's just to try out colors to match items around my entrance. So far I've done 10 trips and spent 25k in bells. Its ridiculous.

Really wish they could've included these guys as optional stores you can have on your island, instead of just sticking them on Harv's. That way people who worry about space and those who want convience are both happy.

Seriously. Everything feels like it was designed to eat up time in the worst way.

There still isn't a way to get different color variations or have someone customize it for you. You just got to hope that Able has them in the wardrobe and with my luck they normally never do.

I agree it really would have been better to give people the option. I know how you feel as I have had to go back and forth while working on a few areas. Our islands are big enough for small shops .

I would love to play different games. The high low game is fun at first but gets old quick.

Edit:
I’m planning for when I restart my second island and keep coming back to the same problems. Why can’t we place items on cliffs . If we can place vines and ladders why can’t I place a wall lamp. There are so many creative ways to decorate if we could hang wall items on cliffs. The other problem is not being able to place those really nice small and medium rugs outside. They would look amazing and save pattern space.

I miss tortimer's island and bottle mail (from WW). It was so fun being able to play with randoms and have fun chats with people from your country/around the world and play minigames :) In general, I miss the island! I miss the minigames and having somewhere where it was summer 24/7 really helped with bug catching.
 
Recently, I've thought of another thing. You know how Redd and the Nooklings display wall and ceiling stuff using those grate type stands? I wish the player could use them to display wall and ceiling stuff outside.
 
I seriously HATE the Gyroids! I refuse to allow them on my Island and in New Leaf I instantly throw out any that I find.

imagine... playing chess with villagers, as well as some made-up Animal Crossing board games, bringing back rock-paper-scissors, charades, as well as Made Ya Look (that game reminds me a LOT of something i play with my own friend, I would love it lol). These games should be playable year round and not just on Festivale! I still think hide and seek would be lovely even if terraforming makes it harder...
We should have a hug button, or at least be able to hug villagers that are in boxes if you had a high friendship 🥺
I also think we should be able to make up cool handshakes with our villagers sort of like an alternative to greetings!
I'll stop here, I'm getting side-tracked but I would love the next game to add these things!! (especially the hug button please lol)
