The ACNH Rant Thread

[Lullabynny]

Less a rant about the game and something related to it, the Sanrio Cards sold out right after 8 am and I didnt even get a chance. My location didnt even allow the order online pickup thing Target was advertising. I really hate how Target and Nintendo handled this why wouldnt it just let us pre-order? On the flip I managed to get some bootleg ones from someone on etsy for a low price, but still upset I had to spend more money than I needed AND wasted my time.

That's really the way to go about this situation and not feed into the scalpers pockets. We're really not supposed to talk about it, but everyone should be doing that.

If you have a modern android there is no need to buy anything

I wish there was an option to turn off Isabelle's announcements because if I have to see her talk about her sock for the 500th time........

The in-game pathways are really cool - one of my favorite improvements in NH - but I wish there were more to choose from. I also wish there were one or two more different types of tree. A weeping willow would be neat.

I also really miss the giant tree that would grow over time like in New Leaf. Why did they have to make the resident plaza so small?

I got the whoopee cushion today.

It only works when placed on the floor. It doesn't work when placed over an item that you can sit on (stools/chairs). I was under the impression that it would work on those but, guess not.

Feel like they forgot to program the feature to put the whoopie cushion on the stools and chairs.

every new feature of this game somehow manages to have an issue on it

you can put furniture on your island! but there are only 1200 pieces of furniture available
you can terraform your island! but it's a really slow feature
you can make your own tools now with DIYs! but even the gold ones break too

I doubt they planned to do that in the first place, but it would have been awesome if they did. I'm not sure how hard it is to code a cushion to go on a chair and then you can hop on top of the cushion, but something tells me it's not that hard? But maybe they just have no time with these updates, idk.

Also I feel like I remember seeing one of the publicity photos having a whoopee cushion on an actual chair? Like with a back on it? Though I probably remembered wrong and it was just a stool lol.

I still can't believe they haven't made unbreakable tools yet, I really hope they add that in eventually. I don't know why they insist on improving some things then making changes to other things that most people don't even like. In fact I downright hate it since I feel like there's a mocking countdown in my head every time I do anything with a tool... I mean is this meant to be relaxing

it would be cool if we had infinate bridges and inclines instead of just 8 each
like if i can afford a new incline and i have room for it then surely i should be able to just place one

It looks really awkward to put items next to fencing. It has a weird gap in between. This doesn’t happen with putting items next to each other though. I wonder why the chose it with fencing. Anyways , it was super hard to customize some areas today. They were very small areas and I couldn’t move items around because of the invisible gap.

I feel ya. Like there is a special character (CJ, Flick, etc.) wandering around our island, but noooooo instead of letting us know, she has to ramble about her favorite TV shows. -_-

The whoopee cushion in NL never worked like that either. I think they just did what they did from the previous game. It does have more sound-art for a variety of farts. I have a simple mind, so that entertained me lol.

I sometimes spam talk my villagers just to find out who is visiting. So it would be nice if Isabelle could actually be useful and not just came back because fanservice demanded it.

I mean come on seriously. Just let Isabelle say different stuff in the announcements like you mentioned talking about who is visiting the island as a special villager. I hate to say this but Isabelle in this game compared to New Leaf just is a major downgrade in terms of her character.

Ah. I never played NL consistently so I haven't really experienced the game fully. Thanks for the insight.

I think it's because the fence is flat but still takes up a whole square of space, so that's the big gaps we're seeing

Seeing how they were able to make the Festivale garland only take up half a space, I hope they update the fences too, but I doubt it.

I'm just amused how many "-core" names there are. You have cottagecore, from which I believe springcore is a part of, and then today I heard about "pastel springcore" which should be different from the regular springcore, which is also different from your standard cottagecore? What's the difference of these terms help.

I remember hearing the -core names on tumblr tags such as kidcore and I always thought they sounded strange.

To me, pastel springcore sounds like springcore except with a pastel aesthetic. Springcore kinda looks like a tea party type of aesthetic, while cottagecore seems to be more fall centered and witchy.

I don't understand why we can't order more than 5 items a day and only 2 letters to friends, esp since we only get orders once a day now. Please up the limit to 10 items per day and 5 letters per friend.

I fully agree, considering we could order loads more on the DS and 3DS.
