tbh I think while Nintendo is trying to expand this games life they're doing the opposite

my sibling hasn't played in months because the updates are so small

Does anyone else have particular items of clothing that they keep getting at the Able Sisters? I've gotten water sandals 4 or 5 times this week and it's so frustrating because there's a bunch of clothes I really want and have been waiting a whole month for. I assume it's just unlucky RNG but it's so frustrating.

Same with the DIYs. I've been getting just repeats for the past week and I'm still missing so many of them. Sighhhhh.

Ya girl has 6 copies of the simple DIY bench that my villagers cannot resist making haha. My friend got a lot of grass skirts though. I wonder if we’re all cursed with at least one DIY recipe that will keep showing up. I feel you on the clothing too. The sisters loved offering me the same 3-4 shoes with very few exceptions for like a month haha. We’ll get the cute stuff we’ve been waiting for yet!

Anyone else only getting Pearls from Pascal?

it's getting annoying, so far I only got Mermaid Chair DIY and Mermaid Tiara

 

[Ganucci]

This is another example of them trying to extend this game's life as long as possible. I have only seen Redd a few times and most of those times, everything was fake.

I'm all for extending the game's life and I think having Redd only visit occasionally is totally fine, but have ALL fake pieces is frustrating.

GRRRRRR! I realized today that I sold the Gigas Clam I FINALLY caught instead of donating it. *kicks self*
Now I have to try and find another one. Boo.

Apparently Nintendo's fixed the glitches including the zen bridge, villager bubbles, missing wetsuits at Nooks. Has anyone seen these things since the update to confirm if it's true?

If so, Nintendo really hopped on fixing those glitches fast for the first time ever.

I don't think I like the New Horizons version of the Fishing Tourney. I kinda miss taking my time to fish, and the different sizes of fish

I second this, 3 minutes is just not enough

Are the water sandals on one of the mannequins at Able Sisters? Ik that's a dumb question but might as well ask lol. 'Cause then they would be on display for the whole week, just like all the mannequin clothes are. And yes there's also seasonal clothing which means it'll display more often even when it's not on the mannequin.

DIY RNG is annoying though I'm with you there.

Thanks for replying, I checked today and yeah, they are on the mannequin! Mabel might have explained that at the beginning but I glossed over it. Still a bit annoying though, if I don't want something one day I'm not going to want it the rest of the week lol.

And I did consider that the clothes I wanted might be seasonal but when I looked them up on the AC wiki a lot of them aren't specified as being so. Hopefully I'll see them soon.

(Btw how long must it take for them to fix the nightmarish changing room issue lmao)

 

[Ananas Dragon]

if they don't make me be able to buy more than one pair of shoes every time I go to ables I am boycotting

 

[Xara]

i’m still a bit peeved about only being able to order 5 items a day. i want to get more into decorating my island/houses but it’s really hard to achieve that with this limit lmao

 

[applesauc3]

Has anybody else had glitches on their custom design paths recently?? I noticed the last couple of days I get green lines in my paths as I walk by

 

[DaviddivaD]

Why is there no option to decline DIY recipes that we already know but we can decline getting recipes that we don't know. It doesn't make a lick of sense to me. Nintendo's way of thinking is strange sometimes, lol.

I do know that most recipes can only be gotten from villagers with a certain personality type, so if you have like, 3 lazy villagers, you'll end up with a lot of duplicates of some recipes while possibly missing out on others. If you have more than 1 jock type, and your friend has more than 1 normal type villager, this could explain why you're both getting these so often!

For the ranty part: My sisterly villager keeps refusing to start crafting a shell stool, and I missed out on playing the day after Flip, my jock type, left. Now I'm stuck with 3 normal personalities because Merengue moved in... and I'm not getting any jock type DIYs anymore

C.J. is still here but won't buy my other freaking fish after the "event" and I literally caught 4 Dorados and a Saw Shark in 10-15 minutes.

Also I can't seem to grow any gold roses. :|

 

[JSS]

So Pascal isn't guaranteed to appear on the first scallop you catch in a day? This is gonna be fun.

Yep! I've only got one DIY so far and I'm going crazy!

this was my complaint. lol.


my new complaint is that i want to have a personal mannequin. Having the head piece of the mummy on the wall and body on the ground does not do it justice. THE HEAD IS FLOATING?!?!?!

I wish you could have more than one island without having to buy a whole new switch. This is, of all the things that I dont like about new horizons, the number one thing that bothers me. I wouldnt mind paying another 80 dollars for another copy of the game or somethingg, but having to buy a new switch is ridiculous. I love designing my island, but when I'm done, then what? I want to be able to make a new one and have a new experience. (Without deleting my current town.) Ugh.

 

[Sharan07]

I don’t like the fact you need to go to the airport each time to close the gate.. there should be an option to do it from the nook phone
