I think it could be good if that's the look your going for, but idk how often you run rather than walk in the game but it wasn't for several months that I learned that grass deterioration was a thing and I ran everywhere and it's absolutely noticeable.
I guess it depends on how you want your town to look. I personally don't like the look of mud over the look of grass, nor do I like the sound it makes when you run over mud. Even if you like grass deterioration, it's really hard to maintain the look of natural paths if you don't play absolutely every day.
i would like it better if it were easier to control. it takes a lot of effort to get the natural dirt paths, but easier for grass deterioration to spread in places where you don't want it to be. also the grass deterioration in city folk was horrible. i didn't know about it and my town ended up looking like an absolute desert.
It's good for natural paths, etc. It looks really natural and nice on certain seasons, but depending on the town theme/look you are going for, it can be a real pesk.
Well, I guess I never really thought about it. Some people like it and some don't it seems. It's easy enough to avoid doing, I have without even really trying. Honestly I think it looks kind of nice in certain places.
I want dirt paths, so it's good for that. Otherwise I don't like it at all, it's super annoying. Specially when it comes to plot resetting and getting massive dirt patches, no thankyou.
I guess it's ok here and there, but I don't really like it. It's ok in City Folk, I suppose, but in New Leaf it blends in too much with the actual grass and looks ugly in that game, in my opinion.
I would always run over the patch of grass outside my character's house from entering and exiting the house. It didn't take long for me to notice that the patch of grass began to deteriorate and it became more noticeable as I continued to run. Personally, I don't particularly like the look of mud and as for paths I tend to go for the pattern option. Patterns offer a more vibrant colour to the town and I have the pleasure of colour coordinating my flowers to match the path.
It's not a big deal to me. I love looking at the natural towns with the dirt paths. It takes forever, but props to them. Personally, I'm not going to try it but I don't mind it. I use paths so I don't notice much grass deterioration, because I usually only walk on the paths.
I agree with some of your points, but I just don't like it personally. For me it makes my town look barren and more like a desert and I just don't like it to look like that as i'd rather have it look more lively. I'm struggling with grass deterioration right now and I'm really not a fan of it. Although I have paths laid down, the grass that was once on top of that path has deteriorated and it just makes my path look messy and less orderly. I prefer to have everything orderly and nice. Overall it just looks really ugly to me in game and it doesn't help that my path is two tiles with a space in between for clovers. I just wish there was an option to have grass deterioration on/off. I'd rather not have to stop playing in order to have my grass grow back because I just can't risk having one of my favorites move out.
Grass deterioration is okay, I don't mind it. I cover it with flowers to make it look natural. But what I absolutely hate about it is when it appears for houses. The shape just annoys me, and it doesn't look natural. It shouldn't look very natural, it's a house, but c'mon.
I used to be super upset by grass deterioration but then I realized "Meh, it's more trouble to keep up with it so whatever" I think you just have to learn to love/ignore it. It can be super annoying though if you want a pretty green town.
I don't like grass deterioration it just makes your town feel like is a desert with no grass and all dirt. I hope they remove it in the next game or find a way to control it.
I hate it. It's better in New Leaf than it was in City Folk, but good god, stop wearing down so fast, even if I only go over it once a week, last more than 3 weeks will you??
I suppose it depends on what kind of town you're going for. In the one side of my town I was quite desperate for grass deterioration. But since I was cycling all the time the grass would keep growing back. Now I had to settle for some natural looking grass paths and keep running on them in hopes that I can eventually get a dirty path underneath.
