• Guest, you're invited to help build our new TBT time capsule! It contains three parts, with some of its elements planned to open in 2029 and others not until the distant future of 2034. Get started in 2024 Community Time Capsule: Blueprints.

New Trailer from Nintendo of Japan!

I see your concern, and are wary of how diy recipes and nook miles will work, but trailer in "Welcome to Island Life" the lady states states tools and furniture, if i'm correct (this is me going off the previous main titles) its going to be a bit like nooks cranny in past game where only a few items are in stock each day, no unlocking furniture via pc villager style and you couldn't buy furniture from the machine unless it was cataloged.

Well probably get more info later on, but i'm just putting this out there

Thank you so much for understanding.. and responding kindly. I needed that.

Cheers. ^_^
 
I'm not trolling at all!
I am the farthest thing from that. :(

You're attacking me because I have an opinion that differs from yours, and you don't even know me. There is no reason to be hurtful.

I don't knock everything at all.
There are many things I've posted that I like about NH.

There are many people with similar concerns reguarding crafting, and we were voicing our concerns.

Don't presume to know me or what I think.
I'm voicing concerns because that's what we do when we want to share thoughts and feelings.
If we are jumped on for doing so nobody would post for fear of being attacked for having different views. :(

It's a new year, don't ruin the start of it.

Yes, I agree you are not trolling and you have sincere concerns about this game. I haven't come off rude nor intended to this entire discussion. However, I don't agree with you and the complaints you do have lack proper sources and/or a basis to stand you. I have provided sources for you but you choose to ignore them (the Reddit link, etc).

The complaints you do have are causing negative hysteria without having anything to stand on. They aren't facts, they are assumptions.

Yep, literally what my reddit link stated.

That reddit link summarizes pretty much every thought I've had about the negativity surrounding this game.. People have become too impatient and expect something to be the *exact* way THEY imagine it to be, or else it's not good enough. I wish people stopped complaining and valued the effort game-developers put into their products... They're not machines who live to fill our every demand, they're people too.

I'm just really worried they haven't put as much into it as they have with PC, since that's the real cash cow.

I'm worried we won't get the decent PC items, because they want you to keep playing PC and buying those particular items via the cookies with leaf tickets.

I've been thinking about it for days, and I'm just concerned.

I'm concerned, too, because I've seen all of the great items they have added in PC and I think it would be such a waste if we don't have those in a full-blown Animal Crossing. Especially an Animal Crossing like New Horizons where seamless outdoor furniture is a thing. Town designing would be a complete dream if PC items were transferred over.

Sadly, as you say, Pocket Camp is its own thing. Nintendo has jumped onto the toxic RNG lootbox bandwagon, and *if* these items are all put in New Horizons then a lot of the demand for these items will be nearly gone at that point, and Pocket Camp is all about returning items and either directly expecting Bell Tickets for them or expecting a substantial enough amount of rare ingredients to force you to think about spending Bell Tickets if you want them. If those items are in NH, then they simply lose that.

I wish things didn't have to be this way. I wish those items could enter the Animal Crossing canon so-to-speak without the toxicity of being from a mobile game.

I don't understand why people are comparing a mobile game with micro transactions to a mainline console game. They are obviously completely different and when has Nintendo ever included micro transactions (not regular transactions like paid dlc) into a mainline 60$ console game? Also, the comparison is terrible because we barely have as much information about the game compared to what we know about PC?

If anything, we should be comparing it to New Leaf.

It's true that we don't know enough about this game yet to say one way or the other. I don't think there will be microtransactions in NH myself. I freaked out when they introduced the secondary currency (NookMiles IIRC) but that apparently isn't microtransactions but is just a goal-based currency.

However, I do want to say that we should all be concerned that microtransactions could leak into mainline Nintendo titles at any point. Microtransactions have appeared on other console titles by other companies. Before you say "Nintendo isn't like that!", not too long before he retired, Reggie made a point to come out and say that microtransactions get too bad of a rep and that he would be glad to bring them to Nintendo games. He *did* say if the content was available through other means, BUT Nintendo and other companies have a very bad habit about lying about details like that. (I recall Nintendo saying "We'll never do paid DLC" and then weeks later coming out with paid DLC for Fire Emblem Awakening)

(Also, the really bad expensive RNG lootboxes in Nintendo's mobile titles such as Pocket Camp and Mario Kart Tour already mess up the "Nintendo isn't like that" argument, I'm afraid. They haven't just lightly embraced microtransactions in mobile titles, they have embraced them completely in the most toxic of ways).

X to doubt

Nintendo is well aware of the negative impact that micro transaction will have towards being implemented into a mainline game that cost 60$. They have a reputation and ruining that reputation could impact their consoles and game sales entirely.

On the terms of paid DLC, check this out:

"Now, in addition, if we want to make other things available, great, and we'll look at that. But we're unwilling to sell a piece of a Speaking in an interview with AOL's Games blog, Fils-Aime explained that it was open to offering additional content post-launch, but only when it makes sense to do so and not necessarily for a charge.

"We're interested in it to the extent that it makes sense to the consumer," he said.

"I've had this conversation with a number of our key developers, and their mentality is, 'Reggie, when we sell a game, we want the consumer to feel that they've had a complete experience.'

Most paid DLC content coming from Nintendo adds onto the game rather then require you to purchase the DLC to complete the game. Also, Paid DLC is different from micro transaction.

Like I said, we shouldn't even be comparing the new mainline game to a mobile game. They are extremely different and caters to different platforms for a reason.
 
I wonder if they’ll bring back Champ as a villager since it seems like an entirely new character will be in charge of transportation now.

Yep, literally what my reddit link stated.

All I did was make mention of crafting and I was called a troll.

You have no idea how hurtful that was to me.
It was a rotten start to my new year.

My character was attacked.
How do you think that makes me feel?
Like leaving and not coming back.

I am not, nor have I ever been a troll.
I have only ever tried to help people when needed.

I see I'm not needed though.

dude this message makes you seem even more like a troll :/
 
Defending myself does not make me a troll.
I'm not a troll. :(
 
A topic like this really doesn't warrant an argument, so let's keep the discussion here civil. People should be allowed to voice their speculations about the game without being name-called, even if said speculations are highly unlikely.

Also, let's try to keep things more positive! A new game is coming out and the Animal Crossing franchise is what brought us all here in the first place, and these last couple months of waiting should be exciting and fun. Everyone please try a but harder to keep this in mind.

:)
