Octopi villagers

[Ricker]

If you know what octopi villagers are, than you might not know that there are only 3 total octopi, I want to ask you all one question:

Why do you think there aren't more octopi villagers?

I think it might have to do with animating them, I mean come on, EIGHT LEGS! How can you even animate them all for a simple walk cycle?

They all use the same model though, I think, they just all look different.

I think they should stay rare, otherwise it wouldn't be as exciting to get one.

I think the rarity of the octopi is nice. I feel like Marina, Zucker, and Octavian are all so unique and different. Creating more will lower their rarity. I like how it's only the three of them and I personally hope it stays that way.

i want a snooty octopus

I don't like the octopi villagers. It's weird to me that they are on land and not in the water.

that's why i love them tho !! werk it hunty you own this island lol

It may be since they dont know how some folks may respond to them. Octavian reminds me of the giant pacific octopus, while Zucker is based of Takoyaki balls. I would love more dessert / food themed octopus. Maybe even a squid instead. A blooper based squid haha!

Yup

 

[Crazy]

they are cool. i hope they stay rare though lmao

 

[yiffn7]

i dont really like them at all. the only charm that they have to them is that theyre uncommon, really. even that novelty is meaningless due to cycling

 

[Biscuit_m8]

They most likely wanted to see what people thought of them

 

[cornimer]

I agree with everyone else, I think that they only made three so that they can stay rare. If there were 15 octopi it wouldn't really be exciting to get one in your town, just like it's not that exciting to get a cat in your town imo (unless it's a cat that you really wanted).

 

[debinoresu]

i think they should stay rare. we could afford 1 more octopus though, i want an uchi octopus

 

[Isabelle4Smash]

Yeah, but more personalities could be a plus..

 

[Koden]

Something about the octopi villagers irks me and I can't really explain why, they just kinda creep me out a little bit

 

[Ricker]

I think I know why they urk you Koden, it might have to do with the fact that they kinda look like Birdo from SMB2, who is already kind of freaky.

But I'm glad you people think Octopi villagers should stay rare, I hadn't even thought that myself TBH! However, if they were going to stay rare, they should at least make one for each personality, so there would only be 8. Just an idea.

 

[Mars Adept]

Actually, 8 is a lot when you think about it. Most species don't even have a villager of every personality anyway. If the Octopi count went any higher, they wouldn't be very rare at all.

 

[Invisible again]

I think they're alright. I wish they'd make a few more for the different personalities and have a bit more variety, but that's up to the AC developers to decide.

 

[loreiid]

id really like a lot more personality types for them, all of the existing octopi have really interesting designs.

 

[kazaf]

Yeah, it's strange how they animate the walking. It's like 4 legs walking in a group, very weird. Wonder if they can animate each individually that would look so cool!

I'd agree there should be a bit more octopi villagers, remain rare - of course. but 3 is too little. lols A snooty octopus would be great!
