I like it when they changed it so she would say who was the visitor for the day. It was so annoying running around everyday for an visitor I didn't care for.
There are days when I just want to bypass the announcements and dive straight into the game. However, I do appreciate the heads-up about which NPC, like Flick or CJ, is around. And it's definitely helpful to know when a camper is staying at the campsite so I don't miss out.
I like them, and I do like the mundane ones where she talks about a show she’s watching or a crossword puzzle. However I do wish there was an option to disable them, both because sometimes you just want to get on with the game, and sometimes it’s nice to just discover a visitor on your island randomly without knowing beforehand.
At first, I liked them. I think Isabelle’s little quirks and animations add personality and charm to the game. Small details with the announcements contribute to her character. However, after a certain point, I find myself wishing for a skip button too, as her dialogue tends to become repetitive and somewhat boring. While I do appreciate her “story time” and what she brings when starting up the game, sometimes I just want to jump right into things. It would be nice if her announcements were a bit more relevant or varied over time. But I still appreciate all the little touches that make her stand out.
i enjoyed them when they first came about as it was nice to see know what was going on and who was visiting but nowadays most of the visitors i’m not too worried about so only really like them to find out about meteor showers so i don’t accidentally miss them - like others have mentioned, i wish there was a skip button as they can feel a bit to long to me at times but do think they fit Isabelle’s personality.
I like the announcements that are useful, I understand wanting to be surprised by a campsite villager but sometimes I do forget to just check on it and Id feel bad missing out. I also think the addition of the announcements about visitors are helpful ! Some of her announcements could be, shorter, though. I do find myself mashing through them and just skimming whatever's said to get the most important part
They kinda get on my nerves tbh. I love Isabelle as a character and the first time I saw them they were interesting but seeing the same exact dialog to say "nothing going on today! " is really annoyed after a while. I wish you could skip it.
i don't most days LOL. i just want to login to my island pls i do not care i would rather read from a bulletin or something or from the phone if i needed anything. she doesn't ever tell me anything useful.
I like the seasonal announcements since it reminds me what's going on, or campsite, but the random small-talk I'd rather skip.
Isabelle was better as a character when we desperately wanted to interact with her more somehow but her being so into her job rather than her oversharing lol
Before they got super repetitive after playing for several months, during peak pandemic I really really enjoyed her “boring” updates like losing a sock or calling her parents.
But before 2.0 when she had more stuff to say and would rarely comment on special characters, it got very repetitive after a while.
I do like that Isabelle does announcements, but I also think that it would be nice if there were an option to turn them off since they can get a bit repetitive after a while
No, they are annoying and I wish they were skippable. Some announcements like villagers moving in/out or important game holidays are fine but if there is nothing going (e.g. Label is in town) then no, don't even bother announcing things that I'll just ignore anyway.
Isabelle is adorable but I fast forward through her announcements I also skip Kapp's shanty on the way back home. It's just he's sooo cute when he's angry and I got places to be.
I like that they made them more useful in an update, when the game first launched they were pointless and took forever, now only one of those things is true.
