Don’t count on a lot of new villagers

Wasn't this already leaked/Nintendo themselves alluded to it? Maybe deja vu.. Personally I'm fine with it!
 
I think it's a bit of a missed opportunity not to round up from 391 to 400 by adding 9 more Uchis (for a total of 10 new Uchis) considering there are so few Uchi villagers AND we all have to start with them! It'd give the game more variety at the beginning to add more.

I agree with this. There are less uchis than any other personality. At least we know there's 1 new uchi, though that doesn't help too much with the lack of uchis problem.
 
I'm not clicking any links in fear of spoilers, because people've been saying that some are somehow getting the game early. Yikes.
But... no, I'm not disappointed if we only get a few new villagers or even none at all. I love the villagers we have and while it would be nice and fun to have new ones, it wouldn't make me want to play or enjoy the game any less than if we had 100 new ones.

These are datamines of the game's files - mostly people looking for the prescence of models, dialogue files, etc. to verify whether certain items/characters are in the game. They're in the really early phases of digging and haven't found everything yet, but there are indications that a LOT of essential characters are missing - like Brewster, Rover, and gyroids.

I'm pretty sure this was the case.... I mean they already announced on pocket camp the EIGHT new villagers from NH would be added in o uo;;
 
I am not too bummed at only 8 new villager if is true because we do have so many villagers and I haven't met most them still.
GameXplain said the same thing, iirc in this video.

They couldn't find it yet but also said just because they couldn't find it yet doesn't mean it is not in the game. 3 weeks in doesn't mean you going to see all furniture in the game.
 
Regarding furniture - we don't see the word 'cabin' in the dateline BUT there's been a cabin table shown in the trailer. So it doesn't mean anything that certain characters are missing.

Also GameXplain (IIRC) saying that Resetti wasn't in the game was based off the fact that his Amiibo couldn't be scanned in, Nintendo addressed this earlier with the KK Slider example in the direct yet we still saw him in the game in screenshots.

So I wouldn't be too worried.
 
Wow. If true that’s actually a big disappointment for me ;ェ;
Knowing that all along would’ve been less upsetting, since the few new ones that they showed definitely made me expect at least triple that amount. Now I kinda wish I hadn’t seen them yet—I was really looking forward to running into others while I play.

No new personality or species, and just a handful of added characters? At that point why even bother?
I suppose I’ll try to stay optimistic and hope for future DLC villagers.

I'm not too worried about furniture/sets. They've changed how villager houses work, but I imagine the sets are still used in their themes. Those are probably one of the easier things to add in updates.
 
oh i guess i was misinformed all this time. i mean it was honestly a surprise to have new villagers considering they literally had to update all the graphics for this game. i'm not really a fan of any of the new ones; some of them seem too similar to older villagers.
 
i really was hoping for more but the new ones that we are getting are pretty cute
 
Maybe it’s the optimist in me, but I really hope they add more later, like from the GameCube days (and the Japan exclusive port.)
 
i'm not surprised honestly, the new ones we got are really cute ... i'm just wondering if they'll add more in the future. i'm fine with this!
 
We've already seen 4 female: peppy wolf (Audie), space cub (Judy), purple bear (Megan), uchi horse (Reneigh)

Has the personality type of the wolf Audie been confirmed? I've been looking around and haven't seen much about her outside of a brief glimpse of her dialogue in a review video.
