Why is there no gazebo outdoor furniture item in this game? It would be perfect with all the flowers and trees and hedges. I still want a palace or castle, but now also a gazebo.

The castle is necessary now that we have a Cinderella-style pumpkin carriage. It's almost as big as a house. Therefore we need a castle so we have a building outside of which to park the carriage and have it seem the right size.

So back at island designing and i have a massive headache after crying for about 20mins. I still cant get a curved river i have destroyed my island trying to make a magical neighborhood. I legit hate my island now and s strongly considering throwing away my game and starting over all over. Anyone have any river designing tips they can share im seriously struggling.

What helped me was to use Happy Island Designer to plan out my river. Then mark all the straight edges of the river with the regular dirt. Then mark all the parts that have an angle at them with the dark brown dirt. Then dig out the river!

Not a big deal but why doesn't Able Sisters have striped t-shirts like the ones in New Leaf? It's such a basic clothing item but the only ones they have are with black stripes which have a gothic vibe. I know you can easily design a striped tee but I just thought it was strange since there are other clothes you can easily design. Similar to how it's strange that there's still no light brown and white hair. Their decisions just seem weird sometimes...

I'm filled with such visceral anger right now and it's entirely my own fault :^)

so ACNH related rant, I was on nookazon trying to buy mushroom DIYs and I accidentally way overpaid on a single mushroom low stool. not the DIY, just a singular low stool. It's not even the seller's fault, I had 20 minutes waiting for them to get through their trades to realize it was just the item and not the DIY. I am an idiot, an idiot is me :^D

That feeling when someone offers you a villager you really want badly on Nookazon, you are literally waiting for the dodo code, then disappears leaving you hanging only to respond 2 hours later with "sorry just sold him".

Then when you politely call them out they close the trade so the conversation ends without another word

I’m sorry that happened. I think you’re allowed to leave them a bad review if they cancelled the trade after agreeing to it.

I would like it very much if letters in the mailbox could be mass-deleted.

I want the post office and old way of storing letters back.

I always kept my bells on a letter to stop villagers trying to sell me stuff.
Now it just sucks.

What is wrong with the game’s RNG? I’m currently in the month of November, and I have two mushroom recipes left to obtain (one of them being the forest floor), and every time I shoot down a balloon, it’s an item that I have no use for. It used to be one recipe every five balloons, but I got no recipe after like ten balloons.

I've never heard of this site and it's SO helpful!! THANK YOU! ;___;

I'm glad you find it helpful! I generally suck at making rivers, so having a template and going step by step really helps me.

For sure! Not to mention creating it in game is pretty slow paced for me so if I screw up it sucks because it took a lot of time to get to that step in general.

I agree the RNG has problems I mentioned a while ago how they should implement something where the more times you're "unlucky" the greater chance you'll be "lucky". So for your example the chance to get a DIY should get higher each time you don't get one rather than it just being a fixed probability. I think it might solve a lot of problems players have with having really bad luck collecting things. I mean some people get all fake art from Redd several times in a row which is horrible. I think they should allow that 1 or 2 times in a row tops.

I wish the fishing tourney either had a higher spawn rate, bite rate or a longer timer. As it is I kind of find the whole thing to be more tedious and frustrating than fun. I mean the first round I spent a whole minute looking for shadows until I finally found one, then in another round I wasted so much time with a fish that kept changing directions. On another round I lost a point because a moray eel I caught took a millisecond too long to finally bite my line after nibbling it like 4 times.

I could only catch half as many things as the bug-off, yet the point system is the same so I have to grind through more rounds for the swag. I also accidentally sold 2 fish before donating them because I didn't realise they were new ones because it doesn't tell you. Meanwhile C.J. tells you too much and it's a slog to get through all his dialogue every time. It's not the worst thing ever but I preferred the tourney in the old games.

i wanted a walk in closet in my bedroom & maybe a bedroom on suite bathroom.... but mostly a walk in closet...., but now i remembered that i can't really....

me on that note:

I'm kinda bummed that your starting villagers can only be a Jock and an Uchi. Kind of a strange combo imo. Why couldn't it be any of the other personalities?

really?!

ohhh.....
i wanted sally & ketchup as my starting villagers.. when i play it...

why does the game have to constantly be linked to the internet? it makes saving and switching players at work take 3-5 minutes. then I also got a second switch to have a community island, figured i'd leave it open and then play on my other island, but found out it just crashes the connection on my second island. so the only way I can get it to work is open my gates on my 1st island in local network so it will turn off the internet, but having the gate open restricts certain play aspects and also prevents me from closing the game for a few minutes
