I love that the snow cleared up in AC faster than it did irl for me.

Also that it becomes your own little sanctuary. The peacefulness of the game, and the ability to customize it to your liking just makes it relaxing and comforting to play.

I never get tired of visiting with Celeste. She's so adorable and it's always a delight to find her wandering around the island.

So Hans and Quillson were stood next to each other. I gave Hans a fossil and he gave me his photo.
Quillson, not being one to get upstaged, decided to give me his photo too when I gave him his fossil.

Really wish I had thought to record it.
Last night wisp was in my graveyard and I forgot to screenshot that as well XD

The game is still fun after all this time. It has really helped get me through this past year, too.

The lighting in this game is so beautiful! It's all the little details, like the sounds different shoes make on different flooring and tiles, how things look in the rain, and how light from windows and lamps etc. bounces off different items is just so pretty.

I feel like with this not being a handheld game, I was able to get more immersed. I never cared much about villagers in past games beyond their basic appearance, but in this one I've come to love so many because I've made my island a little sanctuary that I feel safe in while I play. I have a lot of happy memories around this game from the past year that I don't think much else could have given me considering the pandemic and all.

p.s. so happy to see a thread like this! I saw the rant thread first and that made me sad that people want to spread negativity

The game was truly the light of 2020 for me as well; last year was awful, but Nintendo really brought some joy at just the right time I played New Leaf but New Horizons has really kept me glued all year, and it shows no signs of slowing down for me.

I just went by Judy’s to give her a wrapped apple for her birthday! This was the first time I’ve ever seen a birthday in Animal Crossing, and it was one of the sweetest moments in the game for me.

The birthday music is sooooo sweet, I’ve never heard Birthday KK and now it’s prob my fav music in the game. I spent so much time in her house just talking with them, and chilling out while relaxing to the song. It’s so cute how they all jump around and sing haha.

all the villagers' handheld items, especially the food ones. it makes them feel so much more alive and I'm really hoping we can buy those items eventually - those donuts are precious

Right? Sometimes I wonder why the only thing we can eat is fruit, while all the villagers get to drink juice and eat sandwiches and donuts! They’re holding out on us.

So I never really liked jock villagers, but Roald is my starter villager (his interior is not amazing because of that but well) and I fell in love with that guy, it makes me laugh everytime when he talks about his ABS while having that round penguin belly xD He's trying so hard!
The thing is... wow, it's really nice to just bond with villagers like that!

I love the music that plays when you do mystery island tours. It reminds me of the feeling of being new to the game. ❤

I love the new shamrock items so much, I made a shamrock kitchen.

I feel like a kid in a candy store with these new pattern spaces. Should I place some honey under the honey pot? YES. How about a cute picnic sign? ABSOLUTELY. Shall I place some seeds on the ground to feed the ducks? IT'S A MUST. Thank you Nintendo.

I honestly miss the music that played at the start of the game so much. At the time I remember missing the hourly music and thinking it was a little repetitive, but hearing it now makes me so nostalgic and I love it. It was so calming!

I know. I reset not too long ago and even though resetting is a pain, I loved hearing the music that plays when one is doing the training. The composer and musicians did a great job on this game.

I just recently got Cyd and I love how he reminds me of an old punk rocker. He has a totally different vibe than Lobo does and I love it! I also love Megan to bits. If I was an Animal Crossing villager, I would totally be her because she has my same crooked grin. Her purple coloring also pops and night. It is almost so bright it glows.

Curlos also looks fantastic in almost everything I give him. He is in my half-done all-sheep town in New Leaf and I just love his updated house in New Horizons. It suits him better.

No matter how many times I see it, watching Flora have the zoomies somewhere on the island makes me smile. She's my only villager with the 'play' hobby, so most likely to do that.

When she gets some of the other villagers to join her, it's even better. Dobie running around with Flora and Filbert is such a sweet sight.

I love the music of this game. It took a while for it to really sit well with me because of how different it was from past games, but now I can't help but hum the tunes. For example, sometimes I'll be at work and see the time say 10am and suddenly the 10am theme will start playing in my head.

The music that takes the cake for me however, is the holiday music. They did such a great job taking the classic holidays songs and revamping them for New Horizons. I like how they even managed to sneak in the New Horizons theme song in each one. I know this theme is used a lot, but I also know a few years from now when I don't play this game as much, that little melody is going to hit me hard in the nostalgia.

They did such an amazing job with the Sanrio items. They're some of the cutest, most well designed items in the game. Pretty much every single one has something charming about it. It shows me that if they're going to make money off of something, they will put in effort to make it high quality. I know a lot of people would disagree, but I am all for them releasing more things we have to pay for from now on if they're going to be this high quality.

I love the new items. I also like that we arnt being given everything at once.
