FALL UPDATE ANNOUNCEMENT!!!! 🎃🍂

[Nefarious]

Not 100% related to the topic in hand right not, but also kind of related hehe, do you think that we will get more kind of seeds and that we will eventually get some livestock or like pets to have around us and also in hour house ? or maybe we could like have a second travel island from the dodo which we can also customize were we have our livestock's ..... too much dreaming for you think ?

I highly doubt livestock is ever going to happen. Imagine milking your cow while you cow neighbor is standing right next to you...

More plants is going to happen for sure though, there was more than just pumpkins found in the datamines months ago. Like tomato, potatoes and wheat.

Crap this is hella awesome, I'm gonna tell my friend to download it at 8pm tonight here, and I'll ask my mom if I can at that time (usually I'm not allowed to play at those times cuz I get on like at 2pm and das a lotta playtime)

What about like a pet for example? like a cat or a dog ? :·3, i would really love to have to care for some kind of animal, pet or more than one type of livestock, plus you could use the crops to feed or cook it special meals <3

I feel like livestock would clash too much with the main point of the series (living in a town full of intelligent animals). I DO hope that we get more seeds, though (and if the datamines are correct we should be seeing more).

But we have all those furniture for cat for example, wouldn't it be awesome to care for a cat? cook food to feed it with what you plant in your garden and just observe it how it would interact in the house and your island. I am just so tired of dull non interactive items. Like i cant even put a pool cause like to take all that space and to just sit there never been used is such a shame.

there are dogs and cats in the game.
it'd be weird to have a pet puppy and a dog neighbor living a little ways away from you.
this is why they let us use fish and bugs as pets, because it'd be too weird to have cat and dog pets with them also being neighbors.

Going by @NefariousKing’s example, I’d find it really awkward to have a pet cat while I have accountant cat living a couple yards away from me. While I do agree that more interactive items would be a net positive, adding more non-intelligent animals would kinda strip the charm of AC away.

i absolutely agree... i used to play adopt me on Roblox (don't judge it was a fun game when i was 12 >:|) and when they added pets it was like a huge pet-trading and collecting simulator, it was fun and all but I cannot see myself enjoying ACNH if it had any sort of feature like that

That would make it too much like Story of Srasons and Stardew Valley to me. I do want Animal Crossing to stay Animal Crossing.

That would be weird to have cat or dog pets (since we have cat or dog villagers). Though maybe not extremely weird since we have a hamster cage and hamster villagers. We also have frogs that we can catch and frog villagers. Or that we can catch octopi. It would be nice to have the bugs and critters as pets though. Like to be able to feed them (and have them die if we forget). Too dark?
maybe not that part. But I’d love to be able to feed my goldfish.

I can see you logic ( heheh i still would love to have some kind of animal to care for ) however, what do you think about the cage hamster that you can buy ?

Absolutely love that idea! If we wouldn't get pets so to say, I would love to be able to interact more with the hamster, or insects or fishes that we catch, like decide on the "cage" we want them to be in, and to feed them etc

I suppose it's mostly the matter of how interactive they are. You only ever see the hamster run in it's wheel, or the frog and octopus barely moving in it's cage. To have a dog or cat run around reminds you of how intelligent and lively that animal is, and to have that with the anthropomorphic cats and dogs that are capable of speech and eat human food living down the street, it can really break the player's sense of immersion. That's why the doghouse, which you can clearly understand there's a dog inside, works and why a pet dog/cat like in SoS/HM/SV wouldn't work in this setting.

I think of the hamster cage more along the lines of fishable frogs and octopi, where it’s an oddity (especially if you gift them to their respective villager species) but doesn’t break the immersion.

Honestly I don’t bother it anyways; It doesn’t fit anywhere in my theming, and I don’t have (or want) any hamster villagers anyways so there wouldn’t be any clash. I think the item was grandfathered in anyways from the pre-NL era (sorta like how Rudy was a proxy deer until we actually got deer as a species).

 

[beehumcrossing]

Looks like I'll be downloading it at 6p! Bring on the pumpkins!

i need to make a pumpkin patch ASAP

Thanks @beehumcrossing !!

It’ll be 8pm for me, hope pumpkin seeds are added immediately so I can buy some at Nook’s.

I hope so too, GIVE ME PUMPKINS

Crap this is hella awesome, I'm gonna tell my friend to download it at 8pm tonight here, and I'll ask my mom if I can at that time (usually I'm not allowed to play at those times cuz I get on like at 2pm and das a lotta playtime)

Hopefully you can, I’m so excited ^^

Oh yeah, you bring up a very good point, the hamster cage was grandfathered in!
Also I didn't even notice that about Rudy, funny thing though is he was introduce in New Leaf, at the same time deers were introduce. Now Rudy is going to remind me of Olive the Dog, who thought she was part reindeer.

Oh man he’s only there from NL? He looks like he comes from the original GC AC lol. Why the heck didn’t they make him a deer tho

Looked it up and seems like Rudolph is still copyrighted, so they wouldn't have been able to make him into a reindeer unless they did some kind of collab. That could be the reason maybe.

That sounds reasonable enough. Plus we’ve got jingle and Erik covering the other fronts lol

I've had mine ready since Friday. I'll obviously replace the regular scarecrows with the pumpkin variety, and the hay beds with hopefully hay bales, but the ground is ready!

Nice! I’m waiting for the update because I don't know what dirt I want yet lmao also i’m super busy with school so i haven’t had time

I don't think that is the 4th layer. I think that is just the third layer. But, is it just me or is that spooky arch at an angle?

In the bottom-left you can see a lower level (at least, it looks like that to me) but maybe I am wrong, we will see in about 24 hours
