The ACNH Rant Thread

I found a site to use. This was the best I could do for now. I may figure it out more later.

This is a pic of my game on the switch-lite, taken with my IPad.

As you can see, the white rectangle above my head is the light switch. It always ends up at this height, no matter which room I‘m in.

Silly question, but are you placing it there by hand, or using the room decorator tool? I can see how if you're doing it by hand it will probably default to a certain height, but when using the room decorator tool there's no reason you shouldn't be able to drag it wherever you want, as long as there's nothing in the way.

What's happening when you try moving it down though? Can you move that doll display and try to move it down?

I‘m on an IPad and haven’t figured out how to post a pic and online photo hosting sites have turned out to be horrible.

You can scan a barcode on the Switch using your iPad to download the Screenshots and videos.

I'm kinda starting to take back what I had said about this game when it first came out. Tbh, I haven't touched NH in months now and none of the updates have been enough to rlly bring me back to the game. It's also disappointing to hear from the recent announcements that it's basically rehashed events from last year with nothing new, with the next update now happening later in the summer. I was assuming (and hoping) that there would be a huge update around the anniversary but I doubt now.

I really wanted to hold myself back from complaining but I just need to say this. This game is getting another small update. Its fine to have new items, but again if you're like me and you played this game last year the events are going to be the same as before. Yes I know its traditional in AC games to have events repeated, thats not the issue I have here. What I have an issue with is how Nintendo still refuses to put out a trailer and gives us screenshots of what to expect and of course its just new items. Still no new features or anything else we haven't seen before.

Of course there is something to be happy about getting new items, but of course just like always its just another item that you will have fun for a few hours and get bored of it quickly. This does not surprise me one bit because I knew that these events like the May Day, Stamp Rally, and Wedding season was going to be returning and anyone who was hoping for a 2.0 update is going to be very disappointed. I don't know what else to say, but this game is really becoming more stale and boring in 2021. Truth be told I have taken a break from this game for the past few months and I want to get back into but it just doesn't give me a reason to play it again when it lacks new features and refreshing content to enjoy.

Same here. This latest update is the final nail in the coffin.
I've now completely given up hopes for any improvements to the game.

I enjoyed my time with NH, but this is going to be the first AC-game that I drop after merely one year. How disappointing...

I don't know if I will drop it altogether, but they have so many things that are built in the source code, so why sleep on it?

I'm not quitting the game, but I'm thinking at this point, there will never be another expansion to Nook's Cranny. It's one and done.

Right now, we don't know if there are any new details being kept secret in the April 29th update, but from what we do know, there doesn't seem to be anything truly new since it looks like just a refresh of things introduced last year (excluding the possibility of add new villagers or amiibos). This leaves me to believe the they have reached the end of their roadmap and are now in the maintenance phase.

I dropped the game like a month ago. I used to play every day and now I play on the weekend for like 30 minutes to fill in gaps in the morning. I feel bad for my villagers but since they don't know I exist and can't leave unless I let them, it's fine. Honestly, I'm doing so much better now that I don't feel forced to play every day and that I don't have to "expect" regular updates. The problem is I can't help but feel disappointed every time they announce one because it's going from bad to worse, in my opinion.

I remember when the community was saying how February's update was lackluster because the trailer was literally only Festivale. I actually enjoyed how they worked it this time, but this announcement is the most lackluster one yet. I find it funny that they're keeping stamp day, but decided to get rid of the Earth day NM+ tasks.

I just really miss the feeling of excitement after a trailer drops that promises really great stuff coming to the game.
ACNH used to be a feeling of comfort, wholesomeness and escape from reality for me but now when I think about it I sometimes can't help but think that the dev's lost their passion for this game and it makes me sad. I really hope that I am wrong and they still care and drop something substantial next time.

They're probably being pulled in two directions now because they're the same team working on Splatoon 3. Or rather SP3 is probably taking priority now.

I for one am one of those you've mentioned. Granted, I don't think I've been particulary looking forward to any update, as they've mostly brought back stuff that existed in previous games. However, I liked the trailer videos because they were cute even if the content was underwhelming. The only thing I'm kinda looking forward to in this update is that carp banner on Children's Day and the wedding stuff, even though I haven't used many things of the set from last year. They look nice, though.

I was one of those people to lol. But I ended up enjoying the Festivale event anyway (even though it was always one of my most disliked events in NL) I don't know if it was because it was just something different or if they made the event more manageable.

Villagers pinging at you for attention, to only forget what they wanted to tell you is annoying.

Oh gosh I hate that so much. That is something so pointless that makes you want to make that villager move out.

sometimes, it's kinda cute, too, though :>

Yeah I don't get that. Like mine have done that a few times when my pockets aren't even full. So it's not because they were trying to trade or whatever.

 

[Ginkgo]

I'm putting this here instead of the update thread because I don't want to attract... People.

But on god, are they gonna finish this game or nah? It's literally all cosmetics at this point I want to scream

 

[Lullabynny]

When they said 5 years of free updates what they really meant was "We're gonna "remix" old content a little with like 1 or two new items." Needless to say I'm very upset right now. This is like spraying air freshner on month old garbage and expecting the bad smell to go away.

This may sound harsh, but I really feel like ever since the series became "mainstream" with New Leaf we've seen a slow decline from chilling with animal friends and fun gameplay mechanics, to what is essentially now just a home decorating game. None of the very much needed qaulity of life in sight, no new events or returning npcs to speak of. Nothing but some more cute bells and whistles to clutter and lag your island with!~ u w u ☆☆☆☆

Call me entitled, call me whatever you want. But I think this is the last straw for me. I'll still play, but I am completely giving up on this game. The writing is pretty clear on the wall. They don't care anymore.

 

[Starboard]

I have a feeling the system kitchen doesn't even exist on my cartridge lol. I was planning to use it as soon as I got the game but it's been so long that I'll probably be too used to my ironwood cupboards to swap one out
