Random thoughts thread. (New Horizons)

You know, I'd be really annoyed with the fact that the game forced Hippeux on me via forced Smug campsite villager if I didn't have Amiibo cards and I can easily get rid of him.

I dont regret resetting and I love most of my island.
But I have one area I just can't work out at all.
And it seems there is no way to fix it without changing every aspect of my island due to path flow.

Its driving me crazy.

It took me over a year to get my original island to how I wanted it, so I know I shouldn't care as much.

But going from a years work, to a mess you can't solve... it's stressful

Edit: I might have just solved my issue.
And in doing so solved a few smaller one

New issue is I've got more space to decorate than before and I've no clue what to do with it haha

So, My Island is named Solace... and I don't have the internet on it so I won't be having a dream island of it. I really like my island layout. I don't like my starting villagers lol. Moose and Paula.
Wondering how I am going to do terraforming... I really don't want to do much.
Oh, and my friend was excited to tell me yesterday she finally found a villager she wants on her island, it's Sasha lol. I mean, Sasha is pretty cute. Lucky for her, she has a friend who has his amiibo that they are going to lend her because I sure don't. I don't have any of series 5.
Also I thought I was sure there was an achievement for getting stung for the first time, but I didn't get one when I got stung so I wonder if it was something that was changed in 2.0.0. No biggie but I wonder if it was to have a different achievement in its place instead. Or I am remembering something from another timeline lol.

maybe it's just me, but why does it seem so much harder to move villagers out nowadays?? it felt like when i first did the method, it was such an easy process--but now i'm struggling to move flurry/june out. i am rewatching a guide though, so hopefully that helps. i just wish i had amiibo to make the process so much easier ; ___ ;

 

[dragonair]

does anyone else wish they could sing with their villagers in their plaza? like, with a reaction or something? idk, i think it'd be kinda cute

I don't understand why bell vouchers work the way they do. You can only buy one at a time (and sit through the printing animation) and then you have to take them to Nook's Cranny.
They could have just made an option to directly convert miles into bells?? Why did they make it tedious?

Do I bite the bullet and start up an ACNH Instagram page or am I being stupidly ambitious right now?

i’ve actually been considering doing the same thing myself and i say if you really want to, you should go for it! there’s no such thing as stupid ambition, and i’m sure your account would be lovely! it’s of course entirely up to you, though.

Thank you for your kind words, I'm still deciding but it's nice to know that you've been thinking the same thing. There are some gorgeous ACNH accounts out there that are incredibly inspiring when it comes to decorating and designing in general.

My brother finds this game intimidating. He has a Switch Lite and the game which was given to him by his friend but he doesn't want to play it. When I asked him why, he was like 'because it's intimidating.'

He wouldn't tell me what he finds intimidating about it, being all mysterious.

I don't know what's so intimidating about running an island filled with anthropomorphic, talking animals, I can understand that it might just not be his type of game. He's more into Pokémon.

My island isn't turning out how I like it. Normally when this happens, I say 'the heck with it' and reset. But not this time. Decided to put my island somewhat back to the default map and go back to the ol' drawing board with another idea. Maybe I shouldn't focus on decorating right now. That's always an idea.

Maybe I should focus on HHP so I can unlock redoing my villager's homes. Once I have the villager's house the way I want, maybe I'll have a better idea on what I want to do.

My villagers would be dying to come over to my house, but I kept declining them because my house was empty. But when I finally started to decorate the place, not a single soul shows up.

Recently I've been thinking about creating a site like Housing Snap for Animal Crossing. I love collecting inspiration from other people's islands but since people's photos are spread out all over the internet, it's hard to find photos when you have a specific theme or item in, but a "centralized" site would make it a lot easier to search. Especially with HHP out, it'd be nice to see what people do with specific requests/villager's homes more easily. Would there be any interest in something like this?

 

[Violet Witch]

As much as I love my island and what I’ve recreated since the 2.0 updates I’m still not totally vibing with it. One thing I do know is symmetry is my friend when it comes to designing and I do love town style islands at the moment.

Another day, another for the love of god why doesn't Able's have a shopping cart option so help me Nintendo I will take up programming to implement it myself or die trying

I started catching fish again to make the new cooking recipes. For some reason I have a better time catching fish with the sound on while closing my eyes versus when they are open.

Today I remembered that four-leafed clovers existed in new leaf...now I kinda miss them in this game *sob
(I'll get over it like with the perfect fruits, lol)

My brother finds this game intimidating. He has a Switch Lite and the game which was given to him by his friend but he doesn't want to play it. When I asked him why, he was like 'because it's intimidating.'

Maybe he’s intimidated of all the amazing stuff people can do and he feels he won’t be able to do that. This game is obviously meant to be stress-free though. A lot of people just take those pictures to show off on social media and probably demolish it afterwards. Make your island unique and focus on what you can do. I think exposing yourself to those pictures on social media can fill your mind with negative thoughts. Don’t be intimidating by things you “can’t do.” Again, it’s all in your mind.

Whenever I play this game alone it is a great feeling to be away from all the craziness that goes in the world, but other times when I feel like I spent like 4 hours playing the game I have to shut it off and do something else before I start to get bored of the game again.

Probably because the point is that you can buy and entire outfit at once ... You're not supposed to buy every single piece of clothing in every single colour every single day ... That's not what it was designed for ...
