The ACNH Rant Thread

Currently my biggest rant is towards the glitches. Apparently the forced move out via amiibo glitch was NOT fixed fully and now there's a new one. It took me so long to find someone that would trade Purrl for me and now she's apparently going to leave via this glitch. Guess I'll find out in a few days. But honestly, it ****ing sucks to get your dreamy for this to happen.
 
Why is this holiday 12 days?? 1 day is more than enough time to gather all the eggs and craft all the DIYs. Also, I can move every single villager house via Nook except for one, and she isn't one of my starters. She doesn't appear on the list when I move houses. There are so many weird bugs and not enough full-fledged content. New leaf kept me busy for ages even with time travelling. One Nook's Cranny upgrade and an Able Sisters building? It doesn't even feel like a full game.
 
I’m so tired of glitches. People probably won’t agree with me but Nintendo should’ve delayed this game like they did New leaf.
These bugs are pretty much ruining the game like the villager trading glitch and the patch just made it worse.
 
The problem with rushing to patch an issue is that there’s no time to thoroughly test if they’ve broken something else. A quick turnaround between glitch discovery and patch is not necessarily a good thing.

i'm gonna go bonkers. you're telling me i can't move julians house to the spot i want it to be, because it would be too close to where his house is now and block the flow of traffic? this is literally 50k bells for one move, are you good nintendo?

i hate that SO much ugh, especially since when you choose "let me imagine it" you can't move the camera around or see anything more than your immediate line of sight so it's been almost useless to me. what i've been having to do is move a building to a completely ridiculous spot that i'd never actually want it in, use fruits or something to mark the space where i DO want it, and then move it again and hope it looks right. so then it's 100k+ bells and several days of TTing for me to properly move one building!

i kinda get why it has to be done--the original building needs to remain where it is so that it's not just left unavailable for a day, especially if it's a villager house because they have to live somewhere, and then the plot has to go where you want it as well. but i'm sure they could've come up with some way to make it work that's less incredibly frustrating. and god, please just let me move the camera while i'm "imagining it".
 
Villager dialogue, man, every game they water it down and make it less and less interesting and it makes interacting with the villagers so boring. They may as well all be the same personality. We're not even that far into the game and some of them were repeating stuff from like day three - now all I hear about is EGGS.
 
This is only a minor complaint because I can't expect all the luxury in the world on a deserted island, but I REAAAALLY miss GracieGrace and specifically the Rococo set.
Also, having to start out with a jock villager is annoying because jocks are my 2nd least favorite personality type and I'm also not a fan of how samey all the dialogue feels.
 
Minor gripe, but I dislike that I can't put items on the middle of large (bigger than 1x1) tables outside. Sometimes I want an item as the centrepiece, and it just doesn't look right too close to the edge. Part of me wishes we could move furniture outside in the same manner as inside or HHD.

Also tired of the Bunny Day dialogue. Bunnie, you've told me about Wilbur's rock egg discovery like 10 times now. I get it.
Yes, I know coconut trees spew out eggs more frequently for whatever reason. I don't need to be told again.

I disagree with this. I agree that it's annoying that it's 12 days, but I've been playing AC a lot of hours and it still took me 2 days to collect all of the Bunny Day DIYs. If you're busy working full time and maybe doing other adult responsibilities where you can't play much per day, you're not collecting all of them in only a day. It would probably take you a few days minimum.

I think the best solution to everyone hating the egg hunt and dreading it going on for 12 days is just to have an option in game to tell Zipper to stop hiding eggs or something, which would then "stop" the event going on but still allow 12 days for people to do it if they want.
 
The game is starting to give me major FOMO as well as some choice paralysis.

I'm so worried about missing some of the cherry blossom recipes that I've been popping balloons for hours and hours every day. (Which I know is dumb, because I only have a few left to get, and there's plenty of time.)

I have no idea which items come in multiple colors (or what colors), and so can't decide on a color scheme for a lot of my rooms because what if the items I want to use don't come in a matching color? Or what if I can't find/buy the color I want? What if I have to change my whole room design?? So then I just don't decorate at all... I have two rooms I like, but now feel like I can't do anything else. So I have an additional three rooms sitting completely empty.

Basically, RNG is causing me a lot of stress. I just want Reese and Cyrus to come back so I can customize Nook-bought furniture and not have to get stuck with the colors I buy in my store or get from balloons!
 
i'm so mad at the glitches in this game i'm going to lose my mind!! i thought the glitch with villager move-ins only happened if you adopted someone who was forced out by an amiibo, but i guess not! i invited ellie into my island via amiibo--not having to force anyone out as i had below 10 villagers at the time, iirc--and then when she asked me to move, i decided i'd let her. the next day, before i got the chance to go island hopping, the plot where ellie's house used to be became reserved for lily and i actually got excited because i absolutely love lily and don't at all mind having her as a random move-in. so i tt to the next day and excitedly run up to lily's house to greet my favorite frog! but nope, it just says "i've moved out" on her house and she's not here and ughhh!!! i thought they were supposed to have fixed this and i don't understand how it happened to me and i'm so mad that my island now has 9 villagers and 1 who's "moved out" but still takes up my last spot. i don't know if i can even do anything about it except wait and it's so stupid.

I’m in the same boat as you. I’m waiting to see what’s gonna happen to my Purrl tomorrow 😔 I hope she’s not glitched but I’m super upset, still

I don't know if this is helpful, but I have Purrl in my town and while I don't TT to speed it up, I've had her for a while so she should move soon, and if you aren't able to get her before she moves out of my town you can have mine.
 
My main gripe with the game is the fishing glitch that seems to trigger when I'm playing online with people and we use any bait. Fish just stop spawning all together and the only way to "help" it is toggling the gate or doing something to make the game save. It's a worry I have constantly now when I invite people to my island. What if it gets to 10pm and I can't sell anything and make the game autosave my progress? Guess I'm SOL until it saves on its own.

This is a smaller issue I have, but did they REALLY have to make the hostile bugs available for 6 months each?? Both the scorpion and the tarantula get 6 months to roam after 7pm until 4am in single player. I'm not a very brave person and would like to wander around my island at night with my net out (in case I see a beetle I haven't caught yet or the flower bugs) without being needlessly attacked!

You are so kind! I’ll definitely reach out if she ends up glitching and leaving 😔 Purrl is my all time fave villager
 
I find it so difficult to make bells. Even when villagers are able to help, they give so little. If I were to wait everyday for them to help pay, I would never get anything done. I wish we could ask for bell donations or help promote their activity in improving the island they live so much.
 
I just wish snooty/cranky personalities signified what they're called more it's fun having them be rude to you initially then gradually open up overtime (to me it signifies they're walled off for unknown reasons, or are acting out due to insecurities both of which are things many people really do) it made them the most 'real' to me personally ) :
