Animal Crossing Direct Discussion Thread

[StarlitGlitch]

Talk about information overload. That was like, a new detail every 30 seconds. (Not complaining at all, I'm thrilled, my brain is ??!?!/1?!?1/ rn ok)

Just made a comment about this else where, my ADHD brain is fried with short-term memory overload and it's fantastic

I don't know which topic is the discussion post, but H O L Y M O L Y!!!!!!!!!

THAT WAS THE BEST DIRECT EVER I AM SO GOSH DARN EXCITED!!!! ALL THIS NEW STUFF I FEEL SO OVERWHELMED! Nintendo listened to us! I'm gonna have to redesign parts of my island because I have no room to plant more veggies lol! I'm so glad they added 2 more bridges (my town is based off of Amsterdam, so you can never have too many bridges). And the FURNITURE! OMG THE FURNITURE! I saw a Rococo seat in one of the HH previews! And expanding and more customizing to your house! AND THEN CUSTOMIZING VILLAGER HOMES. THEY BASICALLY PUT HHD INTO NEW HORIZONS! And the addition of Cyrus and Reese so you can change the variant of the furniture instead of having to track down other players to trade (which requires paid online support)! Also cooking! There's so much to unpack here. I'm going to rewatch the stream several times to get a good look at everything new that's coming.

*deep long siiiiigh* I am in my happy place... Thank you so much, Nintendo! <3 And happy birthday, Brewster! coo~

416
417 Harvey
418
419 Wisp
420
421 Niko

427 Dom
428 Audie
429 Cyd
430 Judy
431 Raymond
432 Reneigh
433 Sasha
434 Ione
435 Tiansherg
436 Shino

445 Frett
446 Azalea

448 Faith
449

Unknown but on packaging: Isabelle, Timmy/Tommy, Lottie, KK, Label, Daisy Mae.

Looks like this set is mainly going to be NPCs. I think my math may be off there but it did say "48 new cards" and since the counter should start at 401 for this set, that means we should end at 449, right? So there's one more new villager (maybe more depending on where the count starts)

Yoooooo I'm literally STOAKED about EVERYTHING BUT

• New outdoor furniture
• New + customizable fences
• SASHA + SHINO <3
• omg new plants

That direct was 100948472836x better than anything I expected. I’m so excited to finally have a reason play the game again

This exactly!!! I just reset my island recently because I completely finished my old one and this one for sure got me right back.

Okay if they leave off at 449 instead of 450…….. that bothers me…………… lol

Everyone talking about shino and here's me thinking tiansheng is the coolest of the lot!
Depending on personality type, they might be coming to my island

 

[Junalt]

This just went above and beyond my expectations. I also love HHD so that we can buy that for just $25 is amazing.

 

[Cakecrazy909]

IM CRYIN GOUT OF MY BACKSIDE ITS TOO SOON TO FORM WORDS BUT UH YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[wildworldtraveller]

We even got a shopping street on Harv's island!

 

[Corrie]

Really huge update but also i'm said cause it's last major update

This haha. They said it's the last major update so maybe we'll continue to get small ones, unless that just refers to bug fixes.

 

[sarosephie]

Oh my God we can make bread now

 

[Sara?]

Really huge update but also i'm said cause it's last major update

Actually they said its the last free major update, I must admit i do not mind paying for DLC but i worry about DLCs content and how much they will give us, for how much and how OFTEN

 

[StarlitGlitch]

Since it's a Friday night I decided to sip some wine while watching. Wrong decision. Turns out I needed to be sober and on my Adderall to process everything. What timeline is this?

 

[Orius]

It's like Nintendo was intentionally keeping us unsatisfied so that it could release everything at once and drive us insane from the happiness. lmao You just got pranked by Nintendo! lol

But yeah, definitely a lot to take in. It's been worth the wait. This is a historical moment in the gaming industry that other devs should look back on.

 

[Xara]

i’m literally trembling and unable to form words rn LOL, but the direct was far better than anything i could’ve imagined. i was too excited to catch every single detail of everything shown, but my favourite parts absolutely have to be the mysterious islands, the cooking and new crops, gyroids, FROGGY CHAIR, new villagers, new furniture items and ... oh, who am i kidding? my favourite part was the entire direct.
