Gotta be honest with you, never could get into Pocket Camp. I tried it when it first released and it felt like a cashgrab. An Animal Crossing game doesn't need micro transactions. I also hated having to wait hours for things to complete from crafting, because once you had all of the items you needed crafting, there was nothing else to do.

I'll play it every once in awhile. I've played from day 1 though, so I've noticed how much of a cash-grab it's gotten and I haven't been able to enjoy it the same. I find myself too tired to even decorate my camp site because I have to play multiple times a day just to barely finish an event. 
I love the new furniture though.

Played it for a week and then got tired of it. I redownloaded it about 3 months ago to start up a new account before Animal Crossing Switch just in case they became compatible in some way.
After a month of playing it, I deleted it off of my phone because it got boring and I only logged in for the free fortune cookies ouo

ive stopped as i find it kind of irritating and i feel like the free-to-play and microtransactions take away from the atmosphere and energy that animal crossing should have, (or at least i want it to have) i dropped it when i got back into playing ac new leaf

I'm on and off with PC. I logged in last week for the first time since New Years and I was stunned. The LT items are everywhere now and the events really don't give out much. I think the event that was currently going on was feathers? There was like one big item and since I didn't play from the start there was no way for me to get it. I'm happy that NH will have nothing to do with PC.

It?s gotten so much worse over time. I don?t mind leaf tickets and not getting items, but it?s gotten so aggressive and almost every new item costs leaf tickets. And the events seemed to have gotten significantly harder. Unless you play more than 3 times a day you?re not going to complete an event.

I?m considering downloading PC, and it?s cool to see that quite a few people are still playing, even though many are abandoning ACNL. I imagine the numbers will drop come March, but as right now it?s cool to see that I may have some new friends to play with.

I play in phases. My phone is old and doesn't play games very well, and I find it kind of repetitive after a while. I lose interest pretty quickly bu it's animal crossing so I always get sucked back in.

I'm back to announce that I play Pocket Camp every day still. I'll open it multiple times a day when an event is going on. I'd even go as far as to say it's my favorite game. It has been for awhile now, actually. I'm not exactly sure why I like it so much, considering how heavily it relies on leaf tickets.

Jingle turned me into a carton of milk! Help!
I cant be bothered anymore
All the collecting stuff events make me annoyed.
If i did collect some, i wouldnt be able to collect the whole set. I mean with all the flower growing, gyroidite hunting, fishing tourneny.
You know how annoying it is when you are missing that 1 thing you cant get back from an event. (mine was the flowers...)
(i know there is the stamp trade, but i barely get fortune cookies. I only have 1 5 star item and its a rug... I wanted a memory orientated one..)
Also all those fortune cookies.

Gonna be honest, I haven't actually touched it since the E3 presentation where they said it won't tie into New Horizons, since the possibility of PC connecting to NH was the main reason why I was playing it in the first place. I'm not sure if I'll ever go back to Pocket Camp, but the prospect of not being able to complete any of the cookie sets without paying hundreds of dollars does NOT appeal to me. :/
Just do yourself a favor and don't try to complete the fortune cookie sets. In fact, don't buy cookies for leaf tickets. That's a one way road to frustration. Just buy the 5000 bell cookies when they come up every so often, they seem to have better RNG anyway.

Thanks for the tip, I am super stingy with my leaf tickets and as much as I love a lot of those sets I don't plan to use my tickets on them.

Thanks also Phawnix. I am finding the only way to survive this game and not get frustrated with it is to not spend LTs on those fortune cookies.
It's true. This game is not like any traditional Animal Crossing game. It takes a bit of getting used to, and you have to manage your expectations, but I think there is a lot of fun to be had.
