How long was your animal crossing hiatus?

[fluttershy300]

I have missed four days since I got this game.

 

[CrankyCupcake]

Since the game launched, I've been playing daily. Sometimes for a few hours, sometimes for less than one. I still look forward to seeing and interacting with my islanders every day. I still love making screenshots. This is my third AC game. I always play through the first game year on a daily basis.

So, yeah, I've yet to take a hiatus... maybe when early access to Baldur's Gate 3 happens. Next month.

 

[Sharksheep]

I haven't missed day but I had days where I just play to gift stuff to my villagers and stop playing.

 

[Toska]

Got it March 19th, and started my little hiatus about a week ago. Just not really feeling the game, hopefully getting my gamecube and ac will get me back into NH.

 

[Pyoopi]

Maybe like an off and on 2 weeks. There was a point I got pretty bored and focused on other games for a bit.

My playtime is still pretty short unless I'm terraforming or creating a custom design.

I got the game April 30 and haven’t taken or wanted a break yet. A couple times I spent too much time in one day and felt kind of ick after, but the next day I was always excited to play again. Some days I don’t play as much, though I don’t think I ever play less than an hour. Not bored or burnt out yet. I’d say if you are, no need to impose a schedule. Stop playing while you feel burnt out, and whenever you want to start again start. There’s no right or wrong answer, that’s the beauty of it

I'm on hiatus right now. It's been a good 2-ish months since I touched it. I have, but I only went on to do the birthday event. Just waiting for a good reason to reset for the 4th time lol

 

[Aurita]

I missed a week or two bc I was swamped with work >_> but other than that I go on at least once a day to check on things

 

[Xara]

from new leaf to new horizons? i didn’t play anything animal crossing related for about 2 years or so. as for new horizons alone, i think my longest hiatus so far is a couple of weeks ;v;

 

[Easter]

like 2 months? i dunno i'm very bad at tracking time. i got burntout from playing like 10-12hrs a day LOL and then i got busy with other games (world of warcraft mostly). i'm gathering some ideas for my new island as i just reset and then i'll probably be playing a lot again

I have not had a break from NH yet but I did take a break from NL for a month

 

[Tobyjgv]

Honestly, i've had quite a few hiatuses! For some reason, I got burned out pretty quickly, and took a long break (only checking in once every few days/weeks), but recently I've been playing more consistently and it's a blast!!

 

[kappnfangirl]

I took one week off and then I was refreshed enough to play a bunch. Definitely haven’t gotten bored!

 

[Chris]

I don't consciously take breaks from games. I play when I feel like playing and don't when I don't. That simple!

 

[michealsmells]

Exactly the same as what Vrisnem said! I just sometimes stop playing games, for no particular reasons. Maybe I'm distracted by something else, a different game or school or something. Sometimes I'm subconsciously burnt out on the game. I never willingly put down the game and say "I'm not gonna play this for a while" unless I'm actually upset with it and there's absolutely nothing I can do. (coughmaplestorynotworkingcough)

That being said, I take about a week off, max, when I do.

 

[JellyBeans]

I've been on the game at least once every day since launch (I think?) but I don't think I've actively done much more than trades in quite some time... a break is perhaps something I should take but at the same time I'm just kind of hoping my burnout will cure itself if i look at my island for long enough

 

[Roxxy]

Not missed a day playing since NH came out. Played most of the day at the beginning but recently have been playing less.

Just play when it’s fun and when it’s not put it down for a while until there is something you want to do.

 

[niko@kamogawa]

My longest inactivity for New Horizons was six days. But that's because I was busy. I been playing daily since then.

 

[Cheren]

The longest break I've taken from NH so far has been two weeks. I've taken even longer breaks from other games, like going a full year of not playing NL and not even thinking of playing PG or WW for a few years.

 

[Pintuition]

I've never missed a day, even if it was just 5 minutes to pop on quickly!
