Little Things You Want?

Please let us make the town name longer! You have no IDEA how much I want to name my town "Bowserland" but I can only have 8 characters.

As far as QoL improvements and tweaks, I'd love it if they refined the Public Works system. Having a grid where you can manually place the build site, instead of having to physically walk there and shift around the space until you get it right, would be immensely helpful. It'd also be nice if they'd let us place works closer to things like buildings, the river, and the Town Center (this feature always frustrated me). One final thing would be an easier way to place patterns (paths) in the world. Having to manually place every single one, and then replace them when you accidentally press Y too close, was always frustrating to me, so a built in
pattern-placing grid would be fabulous.

Absolutely yes.

Let us plot our/our villagers' houses on the beach! I saw someone who hacked NL to put Zucker's house on the beach and it actually really fit. I think putting the octopuses and any new aquatic villagers on the beach would be adorable.

If it means we get a bigger beach, I'd love this.

Eight really is a small character limit, I don't know why they went for that.

Eight really is a small character limit, I don't know why they went for that.

I think the reason is that Asian text tends to contain far more information per character than our Latin alphabet. So while someone could freely describe their town using Kanji, it ends up being incredibly restrictive for us. Hopefully they increase it, because 8 characters is way too small for Western audiences.

One of the things that I really liked about City Folk was the Wiitalk accessory. When you had people over in your town, you were able to use the microphone to talk to them and hear them back.

It was a lot easier than having to type. I hope that the Switch permits this, even if its using the Nintendo Switch Online app, like splatoon does.

Honestly, i'm surprised NL didnt do this as it has an external mic... other then for safety reasons

pwp placements on beaches would be a+ and a pretty minor change imo
We have some in nl that were clearly designed to be beach projects but can't be placed there which is a bummer

To have certain things be optional.

Sometimes I work late and have to turn the game back and do each day so nobody moves out, and the mailbox is constantly pinging.

I would rather not receive mail.

I just want to be able to play it before all of my siblings. 1st.

Please... Can we just please have more space?I keep running out of room for the things I want to keep. It's fine if they don't want us to hoard everything but just want a little more space.

Heck, PC Is soon to get 3000 storage added (2000 currently the limit) and even with max characters in nl, it’s more then enough if you want to keep unorderables (even using the post save system and the museum setup on 2nd floor as storage) I used to have numbers...but I can’t remember at the moment....

While I’m at it, another thing that PC is adding is a cabin area soon were you can customize it kinda like your campsite, and that reminded me of the hut you got in ACGC, I really hope that it is added back, as I would have loved a separate decorating space as someone who loves vacationing near a lake in a cabin, it’d be nice to have a home away from home (like a vacation house)

Yeah,I know about the post office and the second floor of the museum in NL. Actually I'm worried more about the all the clothes and accessories.I'm just worried there won't be enough room for it all. But at least it looks like they are listening and space isn't as much of a problem. Still in the beginning of NL so just a little bit frustrated because I don't have enough room for everything.
Another thing that I'm worried about is the repetitive dialogue in NL. The villagers seemed to have more personality in the original.Hopefully it will improve in the switch version.

I agree with all of this, but mostly the villager dialogue. I too hope it isn't anything like New Leaf. The dialogue was very much lacking. :c

Oh. That makes sense, but yeah, they need make it more accessible for Western audiences.
