The ACNH Rant Thread

the only complaint i have is the loading times. the godawful loading times. i once sat there watching isabelle stare into the camera before making daily announcements for approx. 4-5 minutes before she said a word. this is a major flaw and needs to be fixed in the next patch. what could it have been loading for all that time? the one shared braincell for all the villagers on my island?

The first time I played I literally thought my game was broken because of how long it took. Also, why do we have to wait for it to load a shot of one of our villagers walking around the island and then wait again before it cuts to Isabelle? It just seems unnecessary.
 
Not exactly like fully ACNH (but this has been more a reoccurring thing in ACNH and not ACNL apparently?) but I want to get this off my chest because I want to vent this out like NOW.

I am getting slightly irritated over accusatory posts like "is core mechanic a form of cheating" thing. I'd like to clarify this isn't about anyone but rather new players getting the wrong damn idea from fervent purists by saying x is cheating just because it didn't fit their playstyle. Like how trading is apparently cheating because you're making it easy or transactions via multiplayer like??? How are we supposed to play NH if the core mechanics are considered cheating? Do you want us to emulate Animal Crossing Gamecube instead? Like seriously. I don't know who started this trend about branding multiplayer activities as cheating because no one complained about it in NL at all.

Phew. That's a huge load off my shoulders.

Also for more game-centric rant, CAN WE PLEASE, and PLEASE have a "Skip Cutscene" button for flying to other people's islands? Including the one hosting? I swear to god, the more time I waste with my trades the more frustrated I get. I want it quick and snappy because the online server they use is so unstable, I've had lost connections from players while dropping my payment and having to bother my trading partner AGAIN to redo it, forcing us to watch this long 3 minute long cutscene AGAIN. JUST STOP.

Never heard about that, that's new

And that's strange that someone call trading cheating because game often forces you to do that and gates certain thing behind this or grind
 
i'm getting burnout from these villager glitches - i recently got it, and i've tried getting rid of it through complaining, tting, etc., but nothing is working. i know that they are working on it the best that they can during rough times, but it's just dampens my experience since i've decided to hold off on trading/visiting other towns until the glitch is patched. i really hope that they don't wait until the earth day update to patch the glitch

I guess in their logic, getting things "easy" = unfair and cheating. Which is absolutely mindboggling to me. It's why I brought up the point of why throw accusations like "cheater" and "cheating" when you can just straight up say AC Gamecube is the game you want us to play with 0 multiplayer? It's not at least rude to say. It's causing a lot of unwarranted bickering 'cause of that.

To be fair I'm not considering this as cheating, but:
My only gripe with this is, ehm, even if you don't want to play online, game will force it upon you. In some way or another. I all for playing AC whatever way people want, but not force it upon people who want play by their own way.

I love playing this game solo, I don't want to bother with trading and digging thru trading sites. But after digging, I understand that at some point I will be forced to do that.

(edt: sorry if my wording sounds convoluted)
 
I’ve been waiting for boomer to ask to move out but noo it has to be coco that asked ;-; whyyyy. I still said yes to her moving out but that’s only cus I have her amiibo and i’m gonna try and get her back asap so she can have a better house but I MISS HER ALREADY. I’ts gonna take a while to get her back and I’m gonna miss her calling me lollipop ;-;
 
This morning I’m frustrated because a villager moved into an empty plot and I’m really not a fan of them, so I TTed to the next day to start moving them out and...it’s a glitched villager on top of me not being a fan of them. I bloody hate it.
I really hope they fix this bug soon.
 
One of my main complaints right now is that I wish they upped the maximum amount of villagers we could have. Even if it was 12 instead of 10, I'd be happy.

Since you can have up to 8 players on one island, it would be neat to have the option to instead have more villagers. So let's say you want 12 villagers, well now you can only have 5 players live on your island, so on and so forth.
 
Hourly music is disabled until 6PM during fishing tournaments, and ALL DAY on Bunny Day.

Not only was I forced to listen to the Bunny Day theme all day yesterday, but it was almost an exact port from previous game. Nintendo couldn't be bothered to compose a new Bunny Day track? A few times throughout the day yesterday, I found myself muting the game and playing the appropriate hour music through my phone.

Due to the lack of a proper cactus item, I was forced to place potted yucca trees in my desert region. It looks stupid to put potted plants instead of real plants in the outdoors, but there is no other choice. Unless if I could move some palm trees around, that is.

Not gonna lie, I really enjoyed the Bunny day song. Sounds good and I can't remember hearing it from a previous game so I didn't have that issue.

I'lll admit, kind of a bad move to have the same song playing for 24 hours, even if I did find it enjoyable. A bit nitpicky but it would be cool if you had the option to turn it back to the default AM/PM's song (or go further and have the option to list to KK songs as you move around your island.)
