The ACNH Rant Thread

Has anyone had "bad luck" with their letter presents? I've been sending multiple ones each day with different fruits in hopes of getting another foreign fruit, but I rarely get any gift back. Yesterday I sent a letter to the villager I have the highest friendship level with and they gave me nothing in return. I tried a single fruit and a full stack. I know presents aren't guaranteed, but is anyone else having bad luck with them?
 
I'm already sick of this game. I've been playing for over 2 weeks. I want terraforming already and this game is not letting me have it.

Isabelle said 'add more villagers.' I did that.
Then she says add more decorations, I did that.
Now suddenly I need more inclines and bridges.

This game is getting on my nerves. And I'm about to stop playing because it's frustrating seeing other people have a feature that I'm apparently not allowed to have because the minute I complete one requirement suddenly there is another requirement that needs to get done. I thought this game was supposed to be RELAXING!!
 
I'm really bummed about the removal of the perfect fruit feature as well as all of the other exotic fruits that were in previous games. I'm hoping they plan on adding these all back in a later update or something, but so far it isn't looking so good.
 
-You can't take villagers from campsites
-Gold weapons still break

-Tool ring was a hot key instead of actual inventory space for tools
-Not really any upgradable bulidings, besides nook cranny once
-So many missing npcs
-They got rid of mini games so there's nothing for you and your friends to do now

Don't worry, they will sell it back to you as DLC soon enough, just like Pokemon shipping half an unfinished game then selling the rest as 3DS-fullpriced DLC ;\
 
I wish you couldn't move other people's outdoor furniture. Or at least, I wish there was some way to stop certain objects from being moved. Having a little neighbour steal my playground equipment is fine, but waking up to find my iron furniture gone is rough.
 
Actually it doesn't! It now asks you to pick your "style" no gender indication just icons of a "male" figure and "female" figure - before New Horizons you were asked if you were a boy or a girl, they've removed that completely from the new game. Had no idea about Isabelle though, not fond of her so I try to avoid dialogue at all costs 🤣
Post automatically merged:


The villagers still have genders - I only said that they removed the feature where the color of their name is specifically related to their gender. Eg: Blue = Boy, Pink = girl. Now the colors are based off of the villagers general aesthetic

I just wanted to point out that, in the original Japanese version, it still asks if you're a "boy" or "girl". The "style" change was done by the localization team. So unless the dialogue box colors were changed by the localization team as well, the colors do indeed relate to the villager's gender.

For my rant, I'm just going to say: Ninty sold us an incomplete game where they're trying to force their players to play a certain way. Idc idc idc. If I wanted to play an online game with periodical event updates, I would've downloaded Pocket Camp.

I despise how the multiplayer works. I hate the fact there's no list! In NL you could open the list via Porter and you can sit and wait until your friend opens and then you can go! But in NH if Orville doesn't find it the first time, you need to do a whole re-scan and everything. Also less text would help. I feel like every time I talk to that god forsaken bird I'm hearing his whole life story.
 
I really dislike how everything is priced in Nook Miles Tickets. It's stupid as heck. They have no value! Take my Bells, dang it! THEY HAVE VALUE!

Minor annoyance, sometime items that animals give me seems random?

Label gave me aerobics top and task to design perfect worker outfit...

Apparently I need to open Ajax Steel Mill now?
 
Nobody wants to move from my island! Nobody ;-; except my favs but they’re my favs ;-;
Also probably should add that I have not time traveled in a while so maybe thats why but god does it feel so long :eek:
 
After ignoring my house for almost 3 weeks, I finally decided to put effort on it and the first thing I wanted to do was place a fireplace in my main room. But because of the placement of the windows I can't because it looks really awkward and asymmetrical and now I don't really know what to do. I wish we can move where the windows are (or maybe have the option to remove it entirely?) I don't know, I just love symmetry. :cautious:
 
I absolutely love this game buuut there are a lot of things that bug me coming from new leaf :(

NPCs!! This is a common one but there are so many missing, it makes me sad! I loved Reese & Cyrus, Luna, Resetti, Lyle, Redd (!!), Kicks, Lief, and so many more! where did they all go!

No more art in the museum, I love art irl and loved collecting familiar pieces!

lack of buildings! I hate this one especially... NL had club LOL (which I miss especially, where's Shrunk? and KK just shows up every Saturday? that's lame!), the police station, the cafe (I REALLY miss this one 😔), the separate shops for Kicks and Lief, and more. I get why they merged them for convenience, but I still miss them!

and overall, just a lack of stuff to 'unlock.' In NL (at least for me) it took forever to get every building and everything upgraded all the way (like shampoodles, club LOL, the cafe, upgrading the museum, upgrading Nook's Cranny, etc etc etc) and it was always exciting after playing for a good while and being like oh! a new thing! but it only took me 2 weeks to get terraforming (and I don't time travel) and there doesn't seem to be much to unlock after that. Of course designing my island is super fun and there are still things like fish and bugs to collect, but I don't feel like I'm working towards anything anymore... I suppose a 5 star rating, but then what after that?

this sounds like a lot but I still really love this game!! LOTS of big improvements especially with terraforming and proper paths, but there are still some things I really miss.

A lot of wallpapers removes the windows, so you could try out some more options.
