ACNH unpopular opinions?

I actually don’t mind the starter houses as it’s just nice and simple and gives me memories back to when I was starting out my island.
 
I will say it every time. Lolly > Raymond. #notlikeothergirls
Absolutely. I had both. Now I just have Lolly. Raymond wasnt bad by any means, but i just didnt dig him like other people do. He went to a good home.
 
I think what makes Raymond ugly is his fangs.

For me it's his bland expression and colors. He doesn't look happy to see me at all... For some villagers it works to give them an unhappy look, especially with cranky villagers. But for a certain smug cat and squirrel, it turns me off.
 
I agree with the waterfalls and over the top entrances. It's naff and looks like you have no imagination
 
Not a fan of Bob.

Redd is worse than Tom.

Doing something that’s popular doesn’t always mean you’re doing it cause it’s popular. You doing it cause you like the idea. Who cares if you have another natural/cottagecore/Japanese island. As long as you love doing it then being original is completely irrelevant. Everyone thinks that being original is key but some of us just want our islands to look good. Idc if someone already made a medieval like island. At the end of the day, it’s just a game and the person that’s gonna see your island the most is you so decorate how you like.
 
Terraforming is great and all, but I dislike how unnatural it makes terrain to look unlike other games

NH is great and it has a lot of benefits, but I prefer NL
I dislike the NH hourly music, I'm looking forward to an hourly music app on NookPhone in a future update
 
Raymond hate is way more annoying than the hype train ever was. To put it bluntly, nobody cares if you like/dislike a popular villager. It doesn’t make you unique to hate on office cat/Justin Bieber squirrel/uncanny blue goat/creepy eye pastel cub/etc. I’ve noticed that it seems to be the younger posters who do stuff like this, so it probably has to do with finding their own place in the world and all of that lol.

Though in the same breath, I guess I should mention that it does kinda annoy me how people ignore so many great villagers and focus exclusively on the same 15 or so animals. However, imo that’s more of a discussion on how narrow-minded most people are in regards to aesthetics and beauty, which kinda goes past the scope of this discussion.

Love your descriptions of villagers! So perfect! And agree on the hating of villager stuff. I had a teen phase just like the one you suggest too, haha.


And your second point about open-mindedness about beauty/ aesthetics would be a fascinating discussion. I can barely resist leaving a full-on essay about it here and now!
 
My opinions!

I love "ruining" villagers. I hate the excessive amount of effort put in to keep them "original." I love giving them clothes to wear, giving them items for their houses, and yes, letting them ask for any bugs or fish. Take it all!

Similarly, I like the starter homes cuz it's like... Yeah, I've had this villager since the beginning. I still have all 5 starter villagers in their starter homes.

Random move-ins are a fun way to make a new friend. And if it's not someone you want, then either that's a chance to get to know them and change your stance, or it's something to work toward to get rid of them.

I absolutely LOVE doing this!
Anything my villagers want they get no questions asked!

I agree with your first one. I had got Goldie from someone and she already had clothes given to her. It’s funny seeing her walk around mis matched and in weird clothing. At this point I made it a head canon that she got her own little unique view on fashion.

Yea, I have a strict dress code...of iron armor, togas, chitons, Cracker Barrel uniforms, muddy hoodies and whatever I think fits them. I also give a ton of furniture to my villagers (everyone gets a turt. No question.)

Also, for a couple of my villagers in my new island I will be specifically looking for them in the early game so they have a starter house.
 
My unpopular opinions:

I like listening to Blathers talk about whatever I donate. I think it is cute how he reacts to bugs and I like how excited he gets about telling me facts about fossils and fish; I wish he’d talk about the art though it’s nice there are facts by the exhibit :). I love history and preserving it.

I don’t like villagers with lipstick or a lot of make up. Blush and some eyeliner is okay; I absolutely love Ankha’s design, but I really am bothered by seeing them with lipstick and depending on the villager, heavy eyeshadow. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with liking the villager or the villager themselves aside from me not liking their design or part of the design. I just don’t like makeup - in general as well. I am very picky when it comes to villagers. In spite of this, I can see why others may like them. :)
