Game still not finished?

[Utsukishi]

We don't know how Nintendo is implementing content this time around so let's stop pretending to and WAIT.

Exactly!

People are allowed to have their opinions but surely, if we're happy enough to wait until 2020 to get the game, then surely we can wait for updates too.

Some characters aren't available day 1... They never have been. Surely we can all be patient and have faith in the game?

yeah i think the game is unfinished, otherwise everything would already be in the game. i assume they had to prioritise what would be in the game on launch day and decided seasonal events could be added later, which is true and in my opinion a good way to think. still, i am glad the game was not further delayed just so they could finish everything. i don't need jingle until christmas anyway, lol

Excellent points. This is very easy to believe tbh

 

[Krissi2197]

A lot of these things may not be implemented until later because maybe Nintendo doesn't want people who time travel to see everything within the first couple of days of the game being released. We just don't know until the game is released nd we play for a while.

Unfortunately that’s how game development is like these days.

I have faith that these features will eventually be updated in. I’m only really upset about the art gallery and the cafe.

I feel like a lot of the things (not all!) that didn’t make it in on launch day are little things that can wait like the gyroids, pitfall seeds, and the froggy chair *eyeroll*

No.. you don't have the right to complain. If you don't like what you see, don't get it. The fact of the matter is complaining is a pretty big insult to the developers. They've clearly worked VERY hard on these games, despite what was added or removed. We also don't know what will be added as free content, or paid DLC. Either way, nothing is final. The game is complete.

We could have NEVER gotten New Horizons, and be stuck with New Leaf.

People on here were saying stuff like this and defending amiibo Festival back when it was being released. Like we should be happy with whatever Nintendo releases and never critique. Now, I'm not saying NH is anywhere near as low quality as aF, but I don't think we should shun any and all types of critiques. People love AC and wanna voice their concerns for a series that means a lot to em. Speaking for myself here, I still can't wait to try out NH, but there have been little things that I don't think are the best, and I'm gonna voice those little concerns whenever I feel it's appropriate.

I think we can all agree here that although we may have wanted stuff like the café, dream suite, etc. these are all things that are unlocked further down the line and could be added in updates. If Nintendo does in fact plan on adding these soon in updates, that's great. I don't think that for the first month or so of the game many players will be angry about not having the café already unlocked.

I also wish we had signs of the cafe and art gallery! However, we also have no proof of it not being there. People aren't allowed to talk about things that are past day 16. Also, they can be added with updates.

and I personally never liked gyroids, pitfall seeds, or have ever understood the hype for froggy chair. They're little things that can be added with updates, and it's not like it's taking away from the main game, right?

 

[Mars Adept]

I don't understand why people would call it unfinished, it looks really polished and ready to me. Wouldn't I have liked certain things done differently or added which have been left out? Sure, but thats just life really.

There’s a saying known as “beauty is skin deep”, and I think that applies here. There are likely movies that have beautiful animation but horrible writing, characters, etc. in many people’s eyes. Animal Crossing New Horizons could be the same to many people.

I'm glad we're going to New Horizons on a plane because this thread has kind of turned into a trainwreck.

Just because we haven't seen the froggy chair in any reviews or directs doesn't mean it isn't in the game. Relax. You could literally say that about any piece of furniture we haven't seen yet.

I'm genuinely so confused about where all this concern is stemming from. Yes, sure -- you could be worried the game isn't going to be better than past titles, but like, how can so many people come out and say 'yep this feature isn't in the game' just because it wasn't in the handful of teasers and bare-bones reviews we've seen???

 

[spinachbaby]

I think it's kinda fair to say the game could be considered "incomplete", when so so many staple shops, main-stay important characters, and other things (gyroids, furniture sets, perfect fruit) are just not in the game at all.

Also, Nintendo is really good at abandoning games (Mario Party, Mario Maker 2's "extra styles" tab with a singular style, etc).

And yeah, we're confirmed to be getting "free updates", but this is only known to be seasonal holidays and multiplayer on launch.

The other bigger things though people are disappointed about though, will probably cost if we get them at all

Excuse the negative tone of this post, I'm just pretty disappointed.

yeah this is what im saying. idk why people are so okay with updates cause in 4 years i bet updates will slowly slow down then halt just like with dlc in new leaf lol. i guess the updates in acnh are bigger, but given nintendos past i dont have high hopes.

I don't understand the froggy chair disappointment tbh but the game is being datamined and apparently it's not there. They aren't basing it off of teasers and reviews.

People have datamined the game, we can see from that exactly what is and isn't the game, including every piece of furniture

 

[spinachbaby]

Its mostly because of how dismissive these 'opinions' are, and the fact these opinions are more alone the line of complaints. The negativity is getting out of hand, as well.

why is no one allowed to critique anything ninentdo does lol

Complaining isn't criticizing. Play the game, get an actual feel of the game, then critique it.

Last time I'm clicking on this thread cause the negativity is starting to get under my skin. So don't quote me on this and expect a reply.

 

[BlueFlameAngel]

They aren't datamining the final game, it's getting a day 1 patch.

You're complaining about our critiques because you're taking it to heart, so clearly we are all "complainers" here.

If it's anything more than the easter event and online play I'll be shocked

Do you know if it has been confirmed that new content will be added in the update? Besides the Bunny day stuff of course. I've seen some people mention it but I want to know if there's been any confirmation.
