I don't have a smart phone and I don't like that I would have to buy a smart phone simply to experience part of the game. Nintendo never used to be this exclusive. I don't like that they're stepping towards this territory. It feels very mobile and gacha.
so i just heard about a new update (spoilers probably)

I dont know why, but for such a happy positive game, some of the more "dedicated" fans can be a little... entitled and ungrateful :/
The game is a year old, weve all put hundreds of hours, if not thousands into it. With all the fun and time we have put into the game, I think its more than met its value in price.
Now there are people actually angry that an NPC didn't get added in a free update or they're bored after 100% completing the game because they put more time than a normal human ever should into the game?
Sorry for getting fed up and acting in the same way I'm complaining about
And even if you really don't like the game... that's okay too. Not everything has to be designed with you in mind. I've bought things in the past I didnt find fun. It happens.
But no, the anniversary "just" gives a cake and there is an app to use so let's all cry about how bad life is.

We're allowed to voice our concerns and complain. If you don't like that, you can ignore me. I would rather say how I really feel then to keep quiet or lie. I'm not trying to kill your good vibes, I just don't think this update is really good considering this marks its anniversary.

people are allowed their opinions, whether positive or negative, whether you agree with them or not, and you need to stop trying to police that again. notice how neither i nor anyone else who's disappointed has told people who are excited/happy to "get a grip" or call them "entitled" and "ungrateful". maybe just leave people and their opinions alone instead. they're not hurting you, and you're perfectly capable of ignoring them.
I'm just voicing my opinion like you are

no you're not lmao, you're being deliberately inflammatory and insulting people.
While also throwing petty insults.I'm just voicing my opinion like you are
I didnt name anyone. And its my opinion.
Stop policing it
i don't want to sound mean or anything but it did sound more like u were insulting other's opinionsI'm just voicing my opinion like you are
I think its good to express concerns and complaints, because that way the developers know what their audience is thinking. They can ignore it sure, but at least it's a choice than, not an oversight.
I mean people complained about not having enough slots at 50, and other people shamed them because previous games had only 10 of 20 or whatever. And now the developers DID add extra slots because they heard their audience and thought this was a good feature to expend on.
So yeah complaining works sometimes lol I'm not gonna stop. People only complain because they care, so of course the mosr dedicated people also tend to complain the most.

it's really stupid/weird, and i don't understand the thought process behind it personally. at the very least, it should be something like: you can buy the nook link items for, say, 10 points (of the new currency) apiece, but then also buy them in-game at a marked up price of, say, 20k nook miles apiece. that way there's still some incentive for people to get the items via the app if they choose to (especially if they're newer to the game and don't have 100k+ nook miles) because it's potentially faster/cheaper, but also an alternative for people who aren't able to get said app, don't have access to a smartphone, and/or don't want to download additional stuff to get the items. or, at the very least, there should be a browser alternative.
Its not so much the opinions I'm critical of, but the attitudes behind them.
I by no means think that everyone should like everything we have gotten or not think there is room for improvements to the game.
Like, anyone who's disappointed they didn't get what they want, I can get that. But those who are genuinely annoyed or angry about it... it just feels like entitlement to me.
I'm super excited for everything but the Nook Link stuff. Really am getting punished for having a outdated decade old smartphone. 
Hopefully the exclusive items aren't too spectacular. Agreed though, wish there was a browser alternative. I care more about my computers than my phone.

That's a step above me lol. I don't even have a smart phone. I still haven't upgraded from my flip-phone lol. The thing hasn't died in all these years.I'm super excited for everything but the Nook Link stuff. Really am getting punished for having a outdated decade old smartphone.

i really like the items added, maybe not the whoopee cushion though lol
and it's amazing how we can get 100 new design slots considering we only had like 10 in past games
i didn't actually notice the nook point thingy was on the actual phone app at first, i do have the app but i still think it's unfair for those who aren't able to get it and it should have been on the ingame phone
it's fine because there's still loads of new jazzy things being added, i'm mainly excited for the sanrio villagers and furniture of course but everything else is good too

it's cool we can just carry on and focus on talking about the update, we all have different opinions on the items added and that's fine ^-^
wait, you mean you don't want yet another currency to only spend on DIY recipes you'll never use and limited edition furniture to replace entire holiday events that you also won't ever use because you have nowhere to put it thanks to every other bit of limited edition furniture you bought 6 months ago? speak for yourself! /s i promise
I'm the same way. I stuck with a flip-phone for many years until I upgraded to a smartphone (one that was already starting to be outdated at the time pfft). If it isn't broken, why bother changing it haha.
If this keeps up though, the habit of needing to link with many apps, it may be time for me to upgrade sooner rather than later.
i just wanted a little more for the first anniversary... not that i'm not happy about the extra custom slots and stuff, but if this isn't the time to do something extravagant what is? it's not even like the recent updates had new features aside from events; the dream suite was the last one iirc and it was in the fall wasn't it?
if they're not going to do anything big now i hope we don't have to wait until summer i really want a better t&t and new, permanent npcs.

The new Bunny Day items are a cool touch, this is the first game to add new items related to a holiday. We don't know the rest of the new items, but from the little one seen on the images (which is adorable) I'm assuming they aren't taking the "easy" path and just bringing the old furniture sets. I'm so glad they are able to be creative instead of just using the same old sets.
I don't care about the increased custom slots since I don't use many of them, but I'm happy for those that wanted them (it was probably one of the most requested features). However, the option of using standees is indeed great- it's almost a new furniture option much more vesatile than the current thing you put paintings on (apologies the english word for that thing is not with me atm). Those who wanted to design other things should be happy now as well Oh and the QoL update of letting you use the portal as an app on your NookPhone is neat!
The Nook Points feature I'm mixed on- will they be exclusive not orderable items? I actually would have preferred to add those items to the Nook Miles system instead, but oh well. Excited to read Katrina's dialogue, it must be very good since it's a fan favorite.
The brochure feature is gonna be my favorite one depending on how it's handled. Eagerly awaiting it.
The items added on this update seem nice, the forsythia is so nice and I have high hopes for the whoopie cushion. The clothing items are nice, not exactly my thing but the stash looks great. The new globe is a bit redundant but not everything can be a winner.
