So, I'm sure we've all been there before. We're playing these games daily, doing our dailies (haha), making our animal villagers happy (or angry), all the while perfecting our town/island to match our grandiose vision.
In my case, I played New Leaf religiously practically every day until New Horizons dropped. Even during that time I felt like I needed a break from New Leaf. Four years later (how has it been four years since New Horizons dropped omg) and I'm burnt out on New Horizons.
Time and time I feel nostalgia for New Leaf and want to go back, and I've tried going back twice. But within a week the burnout sets in yet again.
Onto the question at hand - what do you do when you have a burnout in Animal Crossing? What steps do you take to spark that joy and passion that disappeared? Does playing other games in the series help? Or is an extended and necessary break all you need? I'd love to hear what you all think.
