The ACNH Rant Thread

It's waaaay too hard to make bells, given how easy it is in Pocket Camp.
I wish it was easier, if I wasn't able to get fruit from other folks, I'd be struggling a lot more. :(

The balloon present's shadows don't seem to line up with the actual balloon presents.

Edit: Playing some more, I realize that it's not that they don't line up necessarily, it's that the sun in this game seems to have much more of an impact on where the shadows are located. It's cool I suppose, but it wasn't helpful for hunting down the balloons. I just found a better way to catch them though, so not as annoying, but I was so used to looking at the shadow and then using the slingshot back in New Leaf.
 
I'm absolutely in love with this game so far even after reading the comments in this thread. The game feels like Nintendo finally gave us what we've been asking for since GC and ignored all the fluff

Although I do have some problems with multiplayer. You cant place, move or pickup furniture inside/outside when someone is over. Your villagers head home when someone is over. I don't know if it's just a tutorial thing or not but it was available in NL
 
I didn't know that building the houses would make Tom Nook autoinvite random villagers in them... I thought I had to build them and THEN invite people from the nook miles islands... and now I'm stuck with literally a whole bunch of villagers I positively DETEST... :<
 
I'm mostly annoyed/concerned with everything that's missing. Specifically some key things that have been apart of the series since the beginning, like Katrina, Redd, paintings, gyroids, Gracie, Rover, diving, Dream Suite, etc. I know that there's always a possibility that some of the missing characters will be added later on in updates, but i'm worried that they'll just turn into random visits at the plaza for a day. Why isn't there more facilities besides the shop and clothing store? the little facility options we have are kind of lacking.
 
-Mystery islands sometimes not having villagers on them, traveled two times straight and no villager there each time.

-Cant see where friends are on the map when visit

-Cant message friends unless they visit me or I visit them
(Wont know to visit without other communication methods outside of the game)
 
they could have added the option to customize some shortcuts. The ZR button is reserved for emotes when it could be put to better use as an insta-nook mile app button or an insta design app access. it also bugs me how they dont let you skip lots of unneccesary dialogue.

I might be able to help you with a couple of these. If you've already built the three plots for Nook you will be unable to encounter villagers on tours for a while.

Also, if you add someone as a best friend you can message each other when you are each in your own town.
 
The game is great so far, but I do have some complaints/concerns:

1. Villager interaction: I've heard that the villagers don't interact with much depth or give us any requests in the first several days because they're still in tutorial mode. TBH, I find that to be a glaring flaw. Thankfully it's only in the beginning of the game, but that is really annoying.

2. Hourly Music: This is not a complaint about the hourly music, this is a complaint that I'm on day three and I still haven't heard it! Like the villagers being in extended tutorial mode for days, this is just annoying. The first several days are when I play the game the most and hear the music... But for the first several days in this game you don't get the music. =/

3. HHD had ceiling objects. Are they not in this game?

4. The tools breaking is getting pretty annoying.

5. Even with the extra storage upgrade, the inventory still fills up too quickly, especially with the crafting material. Not a major complaint, but I think the inventory should have been streamlined by now. Tools should be in a separate inventory (something I have been asking for since the GCN days!), and the crafting material should be as well.
 
Tools breaking is my biggest issue right now. Sucks when I'm having fun catching fish or bugs and I have to stop what I'm doing to find the crafting table and make new tools. I know that I can just carry a crafting table and materials around, but then I have to sacrifice inventory space. It's really frustrating.

Worst of all
I hear that golden tools break too???

Other than that my only other complaint is all of the missing NPCs and features, which I'm hoping will be added with DLC.
 
First thing that comes to mind is farming sharks is definitely more time-consuming due to auto-save I’m guessing. Have to go in and out of buildings in order for them to respawn faster. I usually run into them around 5pm/6pm onwards.

I'm glad to hear this as it would have been my only real complaint.
 
Major spoilers:

I could go off forever. Here are my main grips:
Multiplayer is a joke
No Dream suite
Same 5 fish and bugs over and over again
2 types of flowers
Harvey's island is so pointless
No tours!!!!!!
The villagers dialogue is bland
To play with other people, you have to pay
I havent seen a single beetle on a tree or any sharks
Getting Iron nuggets is annoying
Crafting is annoying
Muesum has no art section
It is not as good New Leaf.
I've been so hyped. Like, I cant afford my rent because of Corona, but decided to buy a $60 game type of excited. This is a massive disappointment.

From what I’ve played so far,

I don’t like that we can’t store turnips in storage.
It’s odd that we can’t place tools on tables, that includes the ocarina. You can only display it on the floor.
I don’t like the new goldfish bowls. (The Ranchu goldfish can’t be placed on top of anything for some strange reason, but the other goldfish can. Might be fixed in an upcoming update.)
I wish the lockers and basket returned. Forgot how convenient they were.
 
it's not that big of a deal, but i wish they added more to the local co-op mode .. i'm glad it's easy to switch leaders but i wish the follower(s) didn't have so many limitations. like for one when you pick up things it goes straight into the recycle bin which is annoying :/ i don't know why they didn't just make it to where the items go into your storage
