ACNH POSITIVITY Thread

[Zura]

Thanks for making this thread. I've been thinking for a while now that someone should make an anti-rant thread

Same, I've been wanting to make a thread like this but didn't know how to go about it. I'm tired of all the constant negativity and the echo chamber they've set up for themselves. Only thinking about the negatives only brings mores hate/anger and that's why it's good to look at the positives as well.

I have a huge lists of reasons I love this game but for now I'm gonna mention the designer. As some of you know, the designer in NH has anti aliasing which could be considered a curse by some but also blessings by many including myself. Designs can made to look very realistic instead of the blocky stuff were used to. Besides that, the designer has multiple quality of life features that make a designers life easier. I was never a fan of NLs designer (even with stylus) although you could consider me a huge fan of this game's designer.

Idk if this is anything but apparently villagers can interact with vending machines? Seeing Apollo tap on a vending machine surprised me. Little details like this catch me off guard and it's super interesting imo.

I am so in love with the fact you can make models of fish and insects! Fishing is the funnest part for me in any AC game, it's the absolute best!

i honestly really love the crafting- collecting the diy cards is so fun! the villagers are cute of course, and terraforming and being able to put furniture outside is a game changer!

My favourite part might be how stylish the clothes are now. The fact I change each day - and can't decide what to wear - is a big deal for an animal crossing game.
Also obviously the sheer beauty of the game and the paths and the rivers and the grass and the trees oh my

Thank you for posting this thread my friend! I was getting sick of the negativity too especially since a lot of it can be addressed through simple patching!

What I like about the game is the following:

-Love the attention of detail in the graphics!
-Music is upbeat and keeps me engaged while playing.
-Love how villagers do more activities to bring them to life (like singing! )
-Love how the game has a greater sense of progression.
-Love the random islands you can visit especially since it is an easy way of acquiring materials and critters!
-Thank you lord for USB keyboard support!
-Terraforming of course!
-Love how the game lets you know which bugs & fish you have donated!
-The game seems more in touch with nature and its beauty which brings a sense of charm to the game.
-Love how you can send friends stuff now!
- & so much more! Absolutely love this game!

Oh boy here goes, I adore this game so I might be a while

~ Villager zoomies/airplanes/Naruto running or whatever
~ The Singing. I adore it! Especially when two or three villagers are singing together!
~ The little way villagers sometimes turn to look at something when they are talking about it.
~ New villager dialogue in general.
~ The music. I appreciate it's different to NL, but I'm definitely getting used to the different tunes for when I usually play.
~ The fact we have access to new paths *and* QR codes, for maximum variation. Also Nooklink for QR is a godsend.
~ Crafting. I find it fun to get new recipes and I don't suppose tools would last forever, so it makes sense to replace them.
~ Customising, particularly with your own patterns
~ Island tours. Whether for resource gathering or making a profit, it's nice to have a break from your island a while.
~ The new flowers
~ Being able to dig up and replant whole trees
~ Fences. I'd like bushes too, but fences are neat.
~ Terraforming etc. I haven't gone overboard with it, but it's a nice tool to have
~ Villager house plotting. No more spending days resetting to get them in the right place
~ The camera tool, I take soooooo many photos!
~ The museum. It's beautiful
~ Nooklink to chat when friends visit, because typing on the Switch is hard >.<
~ Placing stuff outside.... I LOVE IT! Just being able to decorate at will is amazing
~ The egg event. I've really enjoyed it so far
~ The clothes. I have so many cute outfits and that's just from the default game stuff

There's probably more, I'm a bit in love with this game to be honest <3

I've only seen it once, but Daisy was inspecting flowers with a magnifying glass and it was so cute!!

- Terraforming
- The new closet where you can see all your outfits at a glance. I've been DYING for something like this for years!
- The entire island atmosphere with the wind, beautiful starry night skies, moonlight reflecting off trees, rocks under the water, the waves, etc
- How you can move trees without cutting them down and planting new ones to grow
- The amount of personality villagers have now where they wave to each other, wear more accessories, do random movements/activities. Makes them feel more real
- Able Sisters having more shopping options when you go to the changeroom
- Increased inventory space
- The random islands you can visit for a change of pace
- Daily tasks get rewarded with miles
- The beautiful new museum
- Placing any item outside

My favorite things are as follows:

*I love how now I know which bugs/fish I donated
*I love that we can put furniture outside, it makes a huge difference and really livens things up
*I like the nook miles + because I feel like I always have something to work towards and it gives me little things to do once I have done my daily things
*I LOVE LOVE LOVE the dressing room and all the clothing options, my storage is running out of space because of the amount of clothing/shoes/bags/accessories I have
*I like that I can send my friends presents and vice versa
*I love the animal interactions and the fact that they interact with the furniture and don't just blandly walk around, they are always doing something and I never tire of watching them!
*I like that we can move whole trees and replant them rather than planting something and hoping it will grow
*I like terraforming, I don't use it like a lot of others do for major work, I just tweak things here and there and I find it perfect that you can do as little or as much as you want
*The museum...I always loved wandering around the museum but this one is stunning!
*I like the storage space we have and that we can see the items rather than click on them or have to pull them out and place them to know what it is

I am sure there are many more things I can add but those are just off the top of my head. Overall I am very happy with this game!

I saw Wade spot a floating Sakura 𝘓𝘦𝘢𝘧. He turned his head this way and that way and followed it for a while! It was charming and super cute.

I think the negativity is a result of these individuals not having the game turned on. To prevent the negativity simply have your game turned on at all times. Having your video game turned off is a simple mistake and could happen to anyone.

Chrissy interacted with the snack machine. It's so cute!

I like how easy it is to dress up villagers. It's really fun when I see something at the Able Sisters that looks like it would look great on one of my animals. I think I've given Goldie a dozen outfits already because she looks so cute in all of them.

I also really like being able to give gifts to my villagers in general without having to mail it.​

It's Animal Crossing. I'm content.

Just being able to see the sunlight change during the day, and coming through the windows, makes me happy. The lights in this game are so... pretty, calming, comforting.

Also the different cute stepping/tippy tappy sounds make me feel so fuzzy inside.

YES and the sunset....omk every time I am online around 5:00 pm I am just AMAZED at the sky. Such a beautiful deep colour and it's amazing how you can see the light of the setting sun on the trees and stuff!

I wish I was better at this game

 

[Beehaw]

POLLEN! PANTS! ON! THE! HONEYBEES!
I legit started tearing up when I saw that for the first time in my game. And the colors for the beehive boxes are so super cute and really in line with what they actually look like.

I love love LOVE having so much storage space for furniture and clothes.

The little poses your characters do when changing outfits are the best!

The friend mail system is really really good (a good friend of mine really cheered me up when I was having a depressed mood by using the system and it was the CUTEST thing)!

I've been pleasantly surprised at how quick the devs reacted to the Bunny Day feedback and that they actually implemented it mid holiday!
