ACNH unpopular opinions?

[rubyrubert]

Here's a few I have. This isn't meant to be subversive or "not like the other girls" either, just unpopular opinions for funsies

• Redd's spawn rate has never bothered me even pre-patch.
• I think fish bait is a hassle and never use it.
• ACNH is definitely the best AC game.

 

[Pintuition]

• Raymond is over-hyped (even though I have him, he's just okay)
• I actually like listening to Blathers' facts
• Coco isn't cute (she scares me)
• Auctions of 200+ NMT per villager make the market overpriced and prices out casual players

I've got more doozies but here's a few! No disrespect to anyone who likes certain villagers, or wants to play a certain way but I'm not about it!

Guess I'll join in because unpopular opinions are my forte.

• The Wolves look sooo bad. I just can't dig their design. I want to like Audie and Dobie but like..
• I prefer Horizons over New Leaf. In fact; New Leaf was probably my least favorite mainline AC game.
• I like Jambette. There, I said it.
• I liked the Easter/Egg event.
• Random move-ins can be fun/interesting.

That's all I can think of for now.

I love wolves, but I think it could be the lack of teeth/fangs that make them look weird.

 

[Fraggle]

Octopi mouths look like s** toys
Raymond isn’t as good as Marshal
Terraforming should look natural - waterfalls everywhere that go nowhere are weird

 

[Kattea]

I will say it every time. Lolly > Raymond.

 

[Sharksheep]

I don't like Audie, Judy, or Dom.
Reneigh has the best design out of the 8 new villagers. She should be more popular.
Cottagecore is pretty nice and I like it but I wouldn't make my island Cottagecore theme.
I don't like symmetrical island layouts.
People are complaining about the new npc rotations too early. It hasn't been three weeks yet.

-Dora is the best mouse
-I think Blathers’s facts are interesting and I like listening to them.
- I like almost, if not, all of the villagers that resemble real-life animals.
-Rodeo is the worst bull
-Hopper is the best penguin
-I think Zucker is overrated (I’m neutral to him)
-I like most of the gorillas, kangaroos, and chickens
-Most of the elephants deserved to be loved more
-Plucky is the best chicken
-Amelia is the best eagle
-Leonardo deserves more love
-The uchi personality deserve to be loved more
-ACNH is an excellent game, though it can be improved.

I have too many opinions to even begin thinking of, but I must post my two cents on villager species.

The Wolves look sooo bad. I just can't dig their design. I want to like Audie and Dobie but like..

My friend also dislikes the wolves, but has stated that the only New Horizons wolves she likes are, ironically enough, Audie and Dobie! I don't understand this, personally, as I love the wolves, especially Audie and Dobie. So if anyone wants to enlighten me as to why the wolves look bad, please do!

But speaking of unfavorable species, I never understood why so many people dislike certain species -- I am talking the anteaters, horses, mice, hamsters, etc. I firmly believe that there are good and bad villagers, but not species. There will always be an exception to the rule (for example, while I might not like a lot of the hippos, that doesn't mean the hippos are inherently bad. I love Bertha, for example, and Biff is cute, too).

Heres one.

I don't get the hype about Raymond.
Am I the only one? lol

I also really dislike super symmetrical layouts as well. . .
Maybe another opinion of mine, but I think that really huge symmetrical two-tiered waterfalls look hideous, especially if it's the entrance of someone's island. . . sorry guys

• people are jealous because diva is rich & fabulous
• i know y'all would think i'm crazy but "quality of life" whatever that means doesn't bother me that much, good if it's improved, but it doesn't bother me like most because animal crossing is how it is because it's animal crossing. it's meant to be tedious, as annoying as that is.
• the bug off & fishing tourney is better in new horizons (i think it's popular tho? i guess i saw somewhere someone said the sizes/whoever gives the biggest/better score was better. uh, no thanks)
• the game is not boring: designing your island alone open tons of gameplay opportunities even when the next update is far away
• i'd have no problem if the gyroids doesn't return, i hate digging up stuff
• the hamsters are cute
• erik > beau #notlikeothergirls

i agree though, i never bother with fish bait. they'll come when you least expect it anyway so why bother (unless it's the last day of the month, but still i just wait til they spawn)

Omg they have the jumping stone entrance too. That's my biggest design peeve. Like why make it as inconvenient as possible for someone to visit.

- Judy isn't cute, she's downright creepy. Her eyes and her color make her kind of an eye sore for me.
- Am not at all enchanted by Dom or Sherb or Raymond either. The only new villager that I am attached to is Audie tbh, and maybe Reneigh.
- I don't like the use of custom paths, I think they look too unnatural and I think that the ones that the game already offers work better.
- Cottagecore is kind of an overrated theme to have, though I do see some elements of it that I enjoy.
- I miss Gracie Grace.
- I don't care for Flick or CJ, but especially CJ. He's kind of annoying to me. Flick is a little better and is growing on me though I didn't like him at first either.
- I don't super see the appeal of those starry tree things? I guess they're just not my aesthetic.
- Not a fan of the wand function, idk why. I just don't really bother with them.

To me, every species has at least one good member. Have to agree with you on that. The only wolf that I consider to be neutral at best is Fang, as he can be improved by making his eyelid look natural and giving him the jock or lazy personality.

imagine coming over to sell turnips and it keeps pausing when you try to jump because someone's about to arrive from the airport

i don‘t think the wolves look bad exactly, but I find them boring. I don’t feel like there is a lot of variation in their designs, and they are all just kind of... fine. None of them look bad to me, but I think the flip side of that is that none of them really jump out at me.

I have Freya in my island currently, and I’ve grown very fond of her. She is very sweet and interacts well with my other villagers. She’s not bad looking, I just don’t have any strong reaction to her look. Having seen many wolves while island hopping including Dobie, Audie, Vivian, Skye, etc, they just don’t click for me.

I know I’m not answering quite what you are asking, but I do think for some people some species designs just don’t work for them, and maybe they can’t even exactly explain why.

 

[meela]

here are some of my biggest pet peeves:

• the villager personality system is completely ****. i hate the fact that all normals, snooty's, etc are just carbon copies of each other with different visual appearances. i strongly miss the seriously unique interactions that AC Population Growing and ACWW had. I miss the fact that villagers would actually get mad at you, and would be mean to you. But I understand this is a children's game.
• people who TT shouldn't get upset at a lack of content.
• I have no problem with the stream of free content updates that patch things into the game that was originally there to begin with in other games. To me, it just keeps me looking forward to the next content and with something I can always do.

I was on an island selling flowers and they had 3 jumping stones and they had 3 more people coming and there were already two others trying to leave. The platform was only two wide so if you didn't jump right, only one person can be crossing at a time.

why do I agree with all of these, especially the QoL and the decorating stuff? Also Diva and Jambette are so ugly they're cute and fabulous. I really miss Jambette haha


for a Raymond opinion, I kinda think that his hatedom is more annoying than his stans. he's not my favorite smug (Colton and Juilan are), but he does remind me of certain Danganropa and Ouran High characters which makes him top tier.

if there had to be a popular villager that I couldn't really understand why they're popular, it would have to be Bob. Sorry to people who love Bob, but I think. . . he's kinda. . . ugly. . . sorry I just like Punchy a lot more
