ACNH Pet Peeves and Petty Complaints Thread

Smug used to be my favorite of the male villager personalities in New Leaf, but their depiction in New Horizons leaves a lot to be desired. Glad that most of my favorite Smugs are in my New Leaf towns where they can deliver the good dialogue. It's a shame that Cephalobot debuted in New Horizons because he's one of my favorite designs too.

Cranky usurped Smug's place as my favorite for the males in New Horizons, they're great in this game.

Speaking of cranky villagers, they are excellent in the original GameCube game. I loved it when they threw insults at you for no reason. Sure, their attitudes are toned down a lot in newer games, but I still love how hilarious it is that they act like they're old farts.

The smug dialogue in NL was much better now that I think about it. I heard that they could actually flirt with you if your character was female. Of course, they had to get rid of that element in NH as that game is much more gender neutral, and thus made some of the smug dialogue kind of cringeworthy in the process. For example, I remember seeing a bit where they talk about a long time ago where electricity wasn't a thing, and people back then had to rely on "the glow of their smartphones". Eugh.

The good thing for me at least was that I had Jacques as my main smug villager for a good chunk of the dialogue I would see. His catchphrase is in French (zut alors), so seeing him attempt to poorly translate something he said was very believable and funny in my opinion. It's why I consider him to be the villager best fit for the smug personality.
 
I wish we could invite more than one villager to The Roost. I would love a few other villagers to sit and have a cup of Brewster's finest coffee with Buck and I!
Secondly, maybe it would be classed as cheating, but I would like to be able to take my storage shed to a mystery island.
 
Happy Home Designer had School, Hospital, Cafe, Shop, Second Shop, Office, Restaurant, Department Store, Concert Hall, Hotel.

Happy Home Paradise has School, Cafe, Restaurant, Hospital, and Apparel Shop.

HHP has less facilities so WHY WASTE A FACILITY SLOT WITH THE SCHOOL. It doesn't fit the theme of the DLC, an island paradise. Who goes to school on vacation?

Gotta keep the kids in the back-to-school spirit.

I work for a school district in real life, so I know EVERYTHING!

Gosh, doing that colorful text on a phone was the hardest thing ever

this is so true. i hadn't realized it 😭🔥
 
Yeah and its so time consuming. My thumb got really sore from crafting so many fish bait.
crafting them individually is one of the worst things in the game!!!!

I miss main street and the island : '( beetle farming is so much harder in this game
 
So, I got the town hall and set down the campsite, but I still cannot sell land... ._.
 
The game needs a way to track the percentage of my catalog that's complete. There's like, 19,000 items in the catalog. You get Nook Miles unlocked when you hit 500. That's basically nothing.
Don’t forget all the different variants you can get for most items. If you have bells to waste, you can obtain missing variants via Cyrus, but it’s super time consuming. I’d probably need to look over a spreadsheet of stuff I’m still missing and obtain them that way, but again, that’s also time consuming. Lucky for me, I’m too invested in this game to not ignore missing stuff in my catalog, so I’m still actively trying to complete my catalog.
This is why my friends never talk to me lol

Here’s my very petty complaint of the day: I wish I could pose villagers better if I’m taking photos of them, especially if I want them doing something specific outside. Yeah, we got reactions, but there’s more that villagers can do than what’s in that menu, such as the one reaction they do when they’re only somewhat surprised (their eyes don’t grow big).

And HHP. How come we can’t make them do any reactions at all? That seems unusual to me. We can make them react in Photopia, but not in HHP. I swear, if that is to prevent people wanting to make lewd things to upload to the Happy Home Network, then that’s just sad. Oh well, I’ll make do with what I’m given.

Oh yeah, the 19,000 includes those variants.


This site is amazing.

Kudos to all the hard working players that make things like this possible. The community as a whole really needs to acknowledge these guys more. It really isn’t easy to find every single thing you can get in a game like this, especially if the game doesn’t tell you what you still don’t have.

Off topic, but I never expected you to reply so fast. I accidentally hit the reply button with my finger as I was typing, and you preserved my mistake. I love it!

I am surprised this game doesn't have any sort of "Special Menu" to keep track of how much stuff you collected. I mean sure there are the bugs, fish, and sea creatures you collected in the Critterpedia that does keep track and thats fine, but everything else like the DIYS and the Catalog are not there. Like how can you tell what DIYS you've learned and haven't learn? And how can you tell what Furniture items are you still missing?

Right?

It does say which DIYs you've crafted, which is nice I guess
 
Tired of my villagers appearing in plain white tees all the time. I can't get the shirts to leave.
I see one, at minimum, daily.

I honestly think it may be because I haven't done anything with the clothing on Able's back Wall. I didn't really want too, because it can't be undone... but at this point I am considering it. Guess they will be seasonal themed if I do it.
