Animal Crossing Direct Discussion Thread

As far as my expectations -- I am honestly so excited, it went beyond them. The only thing that I was wanting that wasn't added was Gracie Grace as well as the pelicans. HOWEVER... I don't know if we can completely write off Gracie Grace now? They didn't show her in the little RV camp with the vendors. But she could still be there maybe, OR maybe she is included with a Nook store upgrade that just wasn't featured? I'm really hoping that's the case! I REALLY wanted Gracie Grace more than a lot of the other NPCs, she's one of my absolute favorites.

They said we can bring back techniques but never mentioned size changing.

there’s small print in the screen for redesigning villager homes that adjusting size can’t be carried over. I assume it stands for our houses as well

I just remembered we can COOK I honestly cannot wait for this update ashdjakald

I'm concerned they've done everything but increase interior room size.

They said we can bring back techniques but never mentioned size changing.

Plus we can walk between thin areas...as if it was the fix for the small rooms.

I’m thinking room size will appear as well. They didn’t preview what changing villagers homes would look like at all so fingers crossed it’ll be basically the same thing only interior alone and not exterior.
EDIT: ignore me just saw the post before this one about the small print

I will make due then!!

Been using bookcases as walls, time to fix that!

I’m basically just glad we won’t hear people complaining about an underwhelming update. I’m so happy this was an amazing update and well worth waiting for.

So worth it. I feel like I'll be playing New Leaf all over again with some of the new features

This is a bit of a bummer about the DLC being one and only... hopefully the DLC sells well and they change their mind.

Lol I know!!! It's hard to even remember what all was shown! There are so many other little things that I have already forgotten about, I really want to go back and make a detailed list or something hahah.

Exactly!! Same here! Honestly, that's not a bad idea.

Given the massive success of New Horizons, I imagine their next order of business is working on developing the next game in the series rather than expanding this one any further. At least we’ll have plenty to do in the meantime!

Honestly though, besides like a small handful of things...

This game has made it to the level it was meant to be at.

I am seriously tempted back now! I went off it when my Switch developed an issue, and I never went back to NH, but I am tempted to start playing again.

Oh well. Designing their house is better than nothing, and it's exactly what I've been wanting anyways.

Agreed, I'm sure it will still be a few years, but since they are finally "done" on this game, and the sales figures are record-breaking, I think the gap between mainline games won't be as long as it has been in the past.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons (Deluxe) for 2028

 

[DrewAC]

It feels like they just dropped a patch that makes New Horizons the definitive Animal Crossing game. This is everything I've wanted and so much more!

DLC: Visit the Moon with Friends!

With how this update went, I am really looking forward to see what is in store for the next mainline game.

DLC: Visit the Moon with Friends!

New Funky Kong mode added!

 

[Yujian]

I can't wait to put those ice fences everywhere in every color!

 

[Croconaw]

With this update, does everyone think that New Horizons is the superior Animal Crossing game? I think it makes a case to be better than New Leaf with all of this new stuff.
