Discuss: What do you want to see be improved in ACNH

[ohno dannie]

all color variations for all flowers

more tables

a way to see who's on your island (npcs) without having to hunt for them

more goals to complete (like the one given by nook to bring in kk slider) after"beating" the game

 

[C-bassExtinctionOrdinance]

I want a beekeeper mask so you can't get stung. I also don't like that you can get wasps twice in a row.

Also when island hopping its frustrating to get repeat villagers in the same playing session. I had someone appear twice in a row last time.

- To me, Isabelle has no true sense of purpose. Give her a purpose or cut the cold opening.
- A checkbox for certain conversation strings that says "Don't show again." I cringe after I click "The more the merrier."
- Do away with Nook's Cranny phone calls every morning for using the drop box. I'm okay trusting the system deposited my money into the ABD.
- When done crafting, I don't want to have to back out before moving to customizing...tedious at best.

I'll leave the obvious ones alone, as they've already been touched on.

Tool durability bar! I saw this on Reddit a month ago and I cannot stress enough how much I NEED this.

The concept reminds me of a game I used to play called Glitch. What I would LOVE as well is if they had a repair tool we could carry as I hate having to break my tools and remake them again. It's so archaic

That looks so good. I want

Lack of furniture variety for sure. We need more sets. I'm sure this is coming in the future, but I really feel it was a mistake to leave us with what we have so far. I am sick of seeing the same things on every single island (including mine). There's just not much room for standing out.

BRING BACK THE FLEA MARKET

That reminds of the market system in Pocket Camp, which was a great incentive to post listings for others, and not have to use external sources to sell items if you didn't want to.

I know it's already been said but for me the biggest disappointment in this game is the dialogue. I might be in the minority but I really do value the interactions with villagers. To me they're more than just a placeholder to make my town cute, I actually enjoy talking to them. While I'm glad we have so much freedom for customization now I just wish the developers would have spent a little more time in creating varied dialogue.

Also, we definitely need more furniture options!

online needs reworked. you shouldn't have a five minute loading screen everytime someone comes and goes. i also think they should let you open gates from your phone if you want.

also if you type a dodo code wrong why can't i go back and retype it, why do i have to go through ALL the dialogue again? same with other choices like when you hit friends only...

I believe it originally started in the Gamecube version of the series. I haven't played the gamecube in so many years that my memory is fuzzy but the flea market was exactly that. On certain days of the month you could go into villager houses and purchase their furniture. Sometimes they would tell you no but very rarely. I don't even remember if the flea market made it to Wild World or City Folk because i have invested much more time in New Leaf and New Horizons now but yeah I loved the flea market because I could buy cool and rare furniture from my little friends, now I'd rather have it for cleaning up their houses because I've changed since I was a kid obviously but regardless it was a great feature and I'm sad that I haven't seen it in so many years!

I love the beekeeper helmet idea above^ I mean we can craft a beekeepers hive so why not?!
I would also love the flea market to come back, or some sort of sale/market on a Saturday morning, it just gave me something to look forward to back in WW.

I’d also like to rearrange some villagers homes, they aren’t great at placing items! Also this could give us a way to get rid of random gifted things. My Wolfgang has a thing for placing tulips on his floor instead of on a table

And definitely crafting multiple items, I’d love to make fish bait but going round collecting clams is tedious enough without having to craft each bait separately!

Ugh this too. This drives me crazy, especially when I have multiple trades to make!

- tools that don’t break would be lovely. i’m so tired of having to replace them throughout the day ;-;

- i’d love more furniture! the customization options and some of the new stuff are so cool but i’d love for sets to make a comeback ;;

- bring back hybrid island. why put it in the game if you’re just gonna take it away?

I wonder if the hybrid island is supposed to serve as an seasonal island, only appearing during specific months or time frames within the year. But that does raise the question of why they'd feel they need to remove it, rather than keeping it within the games code, just locked till the next time point.

 

[Globes216]

I just wish you could buy bulk NMT from the machine ;-;

 

[Squinish]

I'm new to the animal crossing games but as someone who's new to the AC world I wish we could pay bells to make the tools unbreakable it gets tedious having to keep gathering resources to craft tools. also I wish there was a way to get a bigger catalog and diy recipes faster in the game

Did you know you are guaranteed 5 DIY a day with a possibility of more? Every day you can get 3 DIY from villagers, Morning-Afternoon-Evening. Not sure the exact times but 1 villager during those time periods will be crafting a different diy. Then 2 bottles every day on the beach. Morning and Night. You also have about a 50% chance to find a bottle on every Nook Mile Island.

As for cataloging items. Clothing is not that bad as new cloths every day at sisters. Furniture though, you can get (depending on how many trees) up to 2 furniture items from trees on your island every day. 1 furniture item on every NMT island that has non-fruit trees on them. Gifting an item (wrap it for more friendship points) gets you clothing or furniture in return as well. So that could be up to 10 new items for your catalog as well.

Though if you really want to go fast on the cataloging. There are lots of people who will let you catalog items on the forum.

 

[C-bassExtinctionOrdinance]

Oh yeah the option to craft multiple items really should be there. In Dragon Quest Builders you can set it to make as much as you can carry when crafting, struck me as odd they didn't copy that feature from day one.

And while I was underwhelmed by the amount of furniture so far I'm sure they were always planning on adding way more. Most of the old furniture or sets at least should come back in some form eventually.

Quality of life update: (Fan video, not real but god you would almost think it was.)

I don't think it was part of the gamecube game. As far as I remember, the houses in the gamecube game never changed. It was likely added in Wild World.

• Able sister's need to let me buy multiples of the same type of item at one time.... if I want to buy 5 shirts of the same style but different colors, let me do it! Why do you make me leave and come back? I LOSE track of the color ways I bought t.t
• 360 view... you can't allow villagers to sit behind buildings if you're going to make it so inconvenient to find them
• Give me a specific button for "undoing". (A) for laying a tile/path/lake/cliff and (B) to remove/undo a tile/path/lake/cliff I don't want to work on the same 1x1 tile for 5 minutes because I don't move out far enough.
• MORE SPACE for Custom paths!!!!!!!

I wish we could access our storage from containers..... I don't understand why you can change your outfit from anywhere on your island (so pointless!), but have to go all the way to your house to pull items/materials from your storage. I hate crafting so much because I keep having to run back to my house for mats.

Also--would love more design slots.

This but also

why can I change my clothing by opening my freezer? Why can’t I store food items in there say like 120 slots worth. Why can’t I store clothing in the wardrobe (lots of slots needed considering the amount of different colours of things!) and maybe like a DIY box I can store DIYs in because my floor looks ridiculous at the moment. Then I can store all my furniture and materials in storage and not feel like a hoarder
