More than 10 villagers?

[Dim]

Yeah another thread about villagers lol. Anyways, I couldn?t find out what the confirming max number of neighbors our town in New Horizons will have. Our map in New Horizons will be much larger than it was in New Leaf. What do you think? Will they add the max number of villagers able to move in? Do you WANT more neighbors? We had tons of neighbors in Gamecube, though I don?t know how the new map compares to that one. There IS an increase in max numbers of players able to visit our town so that may affect things...

I might be in the minority on this, but I often thought my NL town was too empty and would?ve liked more neighbors even then. I can?t say how many would work best until we know more about the map size and other structures?but ideally there would be enough space for ca. 12-15 Animals

Especially knowing that we can only have one Island per Switch, being able to have enough Animals and space to work with is more important to me than ever before!

I don?t mind repetitive threads on NH?it?s not like there?s much else to discuss for now. haha

The new map actually isn't all that much bigger. It's maybe 15% bigger at most.

I think 12 to 14 villagers should be a good number. I would like to have a busier island. 10 just wont cut it for me.

I would like to have 12-15 villager in total, but if it's gonna be 10 again then I can live with that. As long
as they not gonna pull a Wild World move and allow you to only have 8 villagers on your island...

They wouldn’t as that was a data limitation back then, so I’m expecting a small bump in the cap, like 15 from acpg

I'd absolutely love more villagers! I think 15 would be a great number.

Lots of people are saying/expecting that it’ll be an even number to keep the genders balanced, but I personally couldn’t care less. It’s not like the Animals all need to be paired up in hetero relationships, so why would it have to be an even split?

Praying it's 12-15. There's so many dreamies I have that I want to put together lol

It's easier for house placement, so you don't have on hanging out in the wings.

I’m not familiar with that expression; do you mean that an odd number would get in the way of symmetry?
If so, that’s very true and I can see it conflicting with a lot of people’s design preferences. It’s something I’ve never cared/gone for, so the thought just didn’t occur to me.

It all depends on the size of the map. If the top third (lighter green) is reserved for the construction of the shops and museums, then the whole map is on par with New Leaf (which is disappointing) but that would mean the same number of villagers.

I hope there are more villagers allowed on one island---I feel like 10 wasn't enough in NL.

 

[Melodie]

Around 12 to 15 villagers would be a nice amount.

 

[Sweetley]

Personally, I found a total of 10 villagers in New Leaf not enough, sometimes my town felt so empty since
there was so much space left where I didn't know what to do with it and villagers could have easily put their
houses there. So I hope for more than just 10 villagers in New Horizons, I think about 15 would be neat.

 

[isabll]

I'm hoping for more than 10 villagers, but I fear 10 is exactly what we will be getting. I feel like 12 would be a good number, since the map looks a bit larger than the one we had in ACNL.

 

[Shellzilla_515]

I think it's possible if we get a bigger plot of land. At least two more villagers to bump up the max and I'd be content with it.

 

[RedTropicalPeachyFish]

I want the upper limit is as extendable as you wish. Like, if you only want two, then you have two slots. And if you feel wanting other villager with you, then you can expand it to be three, four, etc. Even possible to eventually expand it to maximum like 333 or 444, as long as you pay specific efforts to earn it in game.
Yes, I want most of them, I know it wouldn't be possible maybe.

I would love like 15 villagers, especially since if they introduce new villagers I want room for them as well as my dreamies from previous games!

 

[Blood Eclipse]

15 villagers would be way better than 10, like in gcn. I'd like mean characters to act mean and not all of the villagers to act like nice clones. When I reject to buy a cranky characters item instrad of saying "oh that's ok no big deal, we're still friends." I'd like the cranky character to get mad and say something along the lines of "bah! Whatever this items too good for you" something more similar to WW.

Nice can be nice but when they're all acting the same it'll get boring quicker.

i think 12 would be good but no more. it would take up too much space for building n stuff
