The ACNH Rant Thread

couple of teeny nitpicky things

• i miss being able to store stuff in the locker at the train station. now i've gotta run to my house (which is in the very back up two cliffs) every time i need to store stuff and it's a kind of annoying to do at times.
• why can't the full length mirror be placed diagonally? whhhy it would look so much nicer
• why is there not a dryer, but two different washers? i guess they wouldn't look much different huh?
• i kind of wish twigs only fell when you shook a tree cause i hate seeing them lie everywhere and if i don't pick them they gather. i guess making them show up less then stones would work too
• let me...sleep in...THE LOFT BED

I wish it didn't take so many days to build up your streak of Nook Miles at the ABD, I constantly burn myself out playing and really want to take a day's break but knowing I'll reset my streak keeps me coming back! Why are they encouraging obsessive playing??? I really need those milessss

OMG IM SO ANNOYED RN. The fall DIY hunt gives me so many grey hair..I spent hours hunting on the beach for the recipes! I don’t even have all the mush DIYs yet! Before I’ll have them all it’ll be winter and I get to hunt yet again :< this annoys me so much. I get the most random dumb stuff from the balloons. I just want the mush parasol & the mush stool pplllssss

It’s great that they increased storage but why can’t I put my extra DIYS into storage. So tired of them being on my basement floor.

I'm still salty that the villager dialogue in this game is so cheap and kinda lazy. I've been playing Animal Crossing on the gamecube for the last few weeks, and it's made me realize how much I missed actual genuine villager interactions, even if some of them are rude or condescending. It definitely gives the game a lot of its charm, which is what NH seems to be lacking in that area.

also why haven't they made DIY storage yet??

So, do you think if we rant loud and long enough about not being able to put rugs outside they will change it? I just want to be able to use my cool rugs outside for decoration.

I haven't gotten any maple DIYs yet I only tried hunting balloons down for a while but for some reason it just wasn't happening and I really didn't want to spend hours doing it.

Also, I have the feeling that I now get fewer balloons in general. Before I'd encounter like 3-5 balloons randomly per day but in the past few weeks it's been way less. On a few days I've encountered none at all during hours of playing which never used to happen. I wonder if they changed something...

Btw to the post about storing the DIY cards, I feel like if they haven't fixed it yet they probably won't, for some reason. It's SUCH an easy fix and if they spent any time at all reading feedback they'd know it's something we've wanted since launch. But they just won't do it.

I do get frequent balloons, almost every 5 mins but no recipes
Abt the storing: I agree. I don’t understand why it’s impossible it’s so dumb. Same with storing bushes and flowers. We can store ANIMALS but not plants come on

I wish that we had planters for the flowers like in NL...not the sad little vases for single blooms that have now.

The fact that you can erase a custom path by pressing Y when not in island designer. This should only happen when in Island Designer

This is how it was in NL as well. I don't get why they kept it, but not for the official custom paths. I ended up swiping away so many paths in NL and the times I bothered with a design on NH I did it almost all the time.



I haven't touched NL in a while, but I remember the tree colors being a bit more vibrant. They were brownish/yellowish, but it felt like fall. The trees in my game as so bland. They have this dark dog-poop green color. And they're all different shades of it.

Also I think I realized why I don't care for a lot of the NH music. In NL the music worked well for all the seasons. I'm in Autumn now and the music just doesn't capture the season feeling and mesh well with it. I didn't really catch on in Spring/Summer, but I think that's why it's been bugging me.

I am kinda annoyed of how you can't put diy's in the storage because I have some that I want to save for later but they instead have to take up space in one of my rooms in my house. So annoying! They should change that!

Ugh, YES! I have been doing this for multiple DAYS, and still I have only 3 mush DIYs (technically 2 because Isabelle automatically sent out the wreath one) and two maple leaf DIY (technically 1 because of Isabelle again). I really want to decorate my island with big bounty trees and arches, but I feel like time is going to run out before I find them. Granted, I do have 8 acorn/pinecone DIYs, but I got most of them in Sept/Oct when there weren't so many recipes to collect all at once... I wish Nintendo would fix this like they did with the bunny day balloons.

Have time today so I was going to farm a few balloons trying to get seasonal DIYs. One finally appeared, I shoot it down and it evaporates on some furniture I had on the beach instead of bouncing onto an empty piece of ground.. BYE.

I don't understand why it can't go into the recycling bin when that happens

My shovel broke while I was doing a treasure hunt. I didn't dig up my fossils, so I thought a fossil was the treasure and it broke my shovel. Luckily I had time to run to the store and buy a shovel, but it was still annoying.

This is so annoying. If there is a spot open right next to it, it needs to bounce on to it. I wouldn't hate this so much if DIY weren't so heavily relied on by the balloons.

Villagers should be able to give us seasonal diys and there should be an option to decline receiving a recipe card you already have. I mean, the game gives you two options when a villagers learns it one you already have, so why cant the second option prompt the villager to not give you the diy?

Getting seasonal diys from balloons is also just really annoying.

 

[Arjh]

I absolutely hate the HHA why is there no option to opt out, I'm fed up with their constant letters telling me I need this or that. It's my house so just let me decorate how I want to!

I'm not happy with villagers hunts and picking up void villagers. Nintendo should do a better job with testing.

A couple of weeks ago Tammi finally moved out. Started island hopping and everything was going well until I visited Island 17. Tammi was there. Kept hunting and decided to let the game pick a villager. The random villager was Freya from my 2nd island. Freya moved out 2 months ago and my 2nd island visited to clear the void right away. Why do full Island gets stuck with other players voids?

In ACNL players with a villager void visited a full Town to clear the void. The full town never got stuck with the void. If Nintendo wants to sell more consoles it should work like ACNL.
