Scariest/creepiest things in the games?

I'd like to know too! He's in my friends' camping site and well after reading this, we're like "Should we still get him?" O_O.

What? Penny was only in the original animal crossing's. Penny is also a female mouse.

I'm sure someone had to have said it by now, but easily the scariest thing is the "no eyes glitch" from the GameCube one. I think that game is unintentionally darker than the successors just because it's an updated N64 port and in comparison to future installments it was really under developed in all areas. But it's really replayable quite more so than the others now if you ask me. Since it didn't have wifi, it lacks an awkwardly useless train station, even though there's one you can use it if you're playing on a GameCube or Wii locally. So some of the DS & Wii wifi boundaries are absent giving it a different feel. It was designed to be played by yourself where the others feel like there's more online related things that occurred.

the creepyness of Penny comes from this

So... her creepiness comes from the fact that someone drew fanart of her with a scar on her eye? :confused:

How is the train station useless? It's probably useless if you're not using the wifi features but otherwise, I've gotten a lot of use out of it (also, its locker was awesome in the beginning when I still didn't have a storage unit in my house). Maybe you just dislike the wifi features in general but you're not forced to use them (unlike games like Pok?mon, where you probably have to in order to get version exclusives and stuff like that), and the placement of the station isn't so bad (it's at the top of the map so you can just avoid it for the most part).

This villager is no longer scary.jpg How can you be scared of that?

Tom Nook forcing you to work for him in the earlier games... yeah, that was uncomfortable and weird as hell.

The gyroids are pretty creepy but I sort of like them?

I find the way some villagers will hit on the player character really creepy too. Sometimes it's funny but other times it's so weird.

Have you read the fanfiction Animal Crossing? That makes that statement suddenly very creepy.

So... you haven't read Animal Crossing? Good for you!

I don't look at the scary Penny picture from that fanfiction. I look at my personally edited version:

No, I haven't, since I don't read fanfiction and I'm not that invested in AC beyond playing the game myself. The shock, the horror, whatever.

As to the gyroids, I assume you're talking about the fact that they're based on Japanese funerary statuettes. I'm aware of that but that doesn't make them particularly creepy to me either. I've read the reasons why people find the gyroids creepy in previous pages too but I still like them.

As to Penny, I think she looks cute, I'm not going to find a pixel mouse creepy because of fanfiction about her. I was thought there was an in-game reason for people finding her creepy, which is why I asked that question.

It's hard for me to find something in a game about cutesy cartoon animals truly creepy.
 
Well, I've been trading for a while yesterday and because I live in Europe, my Time Zone is another one than most of the users here... and suddenly it was 3AM already!

When I went into my house to save and turn my DS off, the TV only had this "no signal" screen and that horrible noise you get in that case. I don't know why but this creeps me out! It also does in RL on my real TV :blush: But I am very easily scared...

It also scared me because I know there's sometimes an Alien on the TV in ACNL... I think at 3:33 AM?

Edit: Oh, and GRETA. She's a mouse, too. What a coincidence.

ahhhhh 'the truth about animal crossing'!! i read that years ago and it was really well done!

although, i think the scariest things in the games is some of the hourly music, especially the ones that play at night that just sound either ominous or just out of place x__x
 
I read the fan fix AND IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE FANFIC LIKE WTF??
