-I would like to mute the music so I can hear me and my friends play the musical instruments I have placed on my island. Would also like it if I could really play the instruments. Like pick it up. Have different buttons for cords/drums....yeah
- mini games would be nice. I'm watching YT vids for games. Weve played some but it gets boring. We kicked the snow but not the ball. Playing soccer with my friends would probably never get old.
- swimming is boring. I keep thinking that there could be swimming mini games and or floating items to jump on and off but no.
- I dont like talking to my villagers anymore. Some have a great personality and some are copy and paste.
- I really miss some of the items from NL and I wish all the items from pocket camp were in the game.
- I love the decorating and freedom we have but I'm out of ideas. So now I'm bored. I used to want to play everyday when it was NL. It always felt like something great was gonna happen but nothings going on in the game. With more NPC and events I might be more into it but I'm worried that the game is going to start being a cash grab. They keep saying free update/free event. So when will the events stop being free. What are we going to be paying for? I'm willing to if its truly amazing, but if its like pocket camp. I'm done. Pocket camp was worth it when I had friends helping me but when they got bored of it. I suddenly couldnt keep up with the events and getting the items. It made me feel pushed to spend money and the the item was chance. I dont want this game to have loot boxes that's all I'm hoping wont happen.

I wish there were a way to get villagers to stand up when you want to give them a present.

There is. Talk to them three times. They normally stand up on the third or after the third. It is quite nice.

I reeeeally wish the music players outside had a bigger radius of sound. I don't want to fill a whole area I made with music players every few steps just so it can have the vibe I want. If they have a volume setting (it doesn't go high enough imo) they should have a radius setting.

An alternative is to just push them. If you run into them for a few seconds it will interrupt what there are doing. They won't get mad, so don't worry.

Now I have no idea how to get them off benches other than to reload the game. I once stood still for about 30 minutes waiting for Bianca to move off a bench at the plaza and it never happened.

the throwing beans were my favorite item in the game ever and I was so excited to buy them when I saw them in nook shopping....Idk what it is but they just don't hit the same as new leaf and I'm so disappointed :< lol

I agree with you I was waiting for the sound they make when they hit the ground but they didn’t make a sound. I still like them but it was disappointing.

You could feed the birds with the beans with Harvey in NL.

No birds in this game to feed.

And I hear the villagers don't react to getting sprinkled by the beans like they did in NL. Their eyes would get really wide and they would stop what they were doing momentarily. And no sound-effect for throwing them out?

I also heard the megaphone doesn't do anything noise-wise. If that is the case, it's like your character is indecisive if they want to shout in it or not and decide they don't want to. They could had added some kind of sound-effect whenever you toggled the animation. It just comes off as half-assed.

I only ever used the beans to feed the birds. ^_^

And yep, twas yet another disappointment that the megaphone is utterly useless, unlike NL where it actually did something.

Aslo, nintendo, stop with the artificially inflated content.

We don't need one item in eight colors.

Do what NL did, and have MANY items that could be customized into many colors.

You're not fooling anyone. :-/

bruh island hopping is well annoying, i just found patty twice in a row
like she's great and all but i don't want her

there needs to be some kind of limit of villagers u can find before getting repeats

I mean the megaphone was never going to work like it did on the Switch. I just expected there to be some noise. Like one of those vevuzela horns. Not necessarily the same sound, but just a horn sound. Or even having them do the 'cheer' emote when they used it.

It's just lazy. You can't tell me otherwise. At least with the cider they toasted and did the cheer sound.

Yes, and we didn't need FOUR useless megaphones, nintendo!

One useless megaphone is sufficient!

i remember on my second island i went villager hunting for any of my like 30 dreamies and within the first five tickets i ran into the same villager three times

instantly made me go looking for someone to just buy a villager off of

Maybe you want 4 in case one of them makes a sound.

Also it's kind of a shame that Groundhogs day was demoted to being just a order piece. I know that Isabelle pretty much just gave you Resetti's model and that was the whole holiday, but imagine if they made the holiday being Resetti actually showing up for the day. Like there's so much they could work with.

And the fact that GH day is dropped to the sideburner makes me bummed out that Valentine's day will just be order chocolate and store it away because it has no use. Like it was cute and fun to get letters from your animal villagers saying how much they appreciate you and take this candy.

I never got Resetti from Isabelle in NL.
I bought it from Resetti's RV when I scanned his amiibo with Wisp.

He also had pizza for sale!

i think thats why i was so disappointed with the update because valentines day means a lot to me and i was hoping for just something small and cute, not ordering items every day and thats it

 

[John Wick]

Isabelle used to send an awesome cake you could eat or display.

I miss the NL customizable tarts and cupcakes.

They were awesome. ^_^

Oh wow, I never noticed it made a cheer sound! And I toasted so many times taking photos during New Year's Eve.

Also I didn't think this was a major deal but since people are bringing things up, I thought it was funny when you run and then shake the maracas, it instantly stops you, like you don't stop running normally, your animation frame just goes to "standing" frame and it looks a little weird lol. Also I think it would have been cute to shake while you run!

Anyway I don't want to complain too much, I'm glad we got new stuff to have fun with.
