The ACNH Rant Thread

Don't tell me to plant a tree/fruit tree for nook+ miles when I am literally one tree away from having an overabundance of trees. Do you even know me? Thanks, Nintendo.

Why does the turnip price change at noon? It makes no sense! Nook's Cranny opens up at 8 am, so that's 4 hours. They are opened til 10 pm, so from noon that's 10 hours. It's insane, it shouldn't be 4 vs 10, it should be 7 vs 7. It's unfair, people having only half the prices are less likely to make a profit within their own island. And once everybody has their regular schedule again they won't even have time to try and make it.

But I wonder if it means they've planned different times for Nook's Cranny. Maybe even a 24/7 convienence store considering there are two working (like the post office in Wild World)? At the very least I hope ordinances return at some point.

One thing that's really bothered me is how you have to pay full price just to MOVE a bridge or incline. I was doing some terraforming last night and realized I needed to move one of my Zen bridges, and it seems ridiculous to have to pay full price just to move the dang thing south by 50 feet.

Something that I am sure people complain about a lot. LET ME HAVE A DAMN SHOPPING CART AT MABLE'S!!!!! It happens a lot that I want to buy more of the same stockings, but whoops, can't. Have fun going in and out of the closet 7 times, don't forget to remember which ones you already bought, because you end up with the same color twice.

Yeah I hate this. I have to race home on my lunch break everyday just to make it in time to check the AM Turnip price. The turnip price change needs to be moved to 3pm as you suggested

So Lionel was forced to move into my town because of the campsite. He moved out yesterday but today I see that Leopold decided to move in in Lionel's place. I'm rioting

I hate how hairstyles available to us in previous games are missing. A lot of NH hairstyles are clunky and awkward looking.

Same, I really miss the NL hairstyles. From the female hairstyles, there are only two which I kinda like. None of the male ones really appeals to me, they are all so... pointy and edgy? Like really, not even one curly-ish style? ;-;

 

[trashpedia]

Not a rant but an opinion I wanna say:

Yeah, Raymond isn’t really all that and personally I do feel like people want him because of weird gay fetishization, but at the same time, hating cuz he’s popular doesn’t make you “not like the other girls”. Idc idc idc. It’s not an unpopular opinion to dislike him and it’s tiring to hear the same “unpopular opinion but I don’t like Raymond cuz he’s popular” comments 20 times under some video that shows him for like 5 seconds.

I know this has been said previously but I wish NH took a leaf out of Wild World's book in terms of dialogue. There was so much personality in that game, even with the special characters. Maybe I'm looking at it with my nostalgia goggles but I felt like we heard a lot about their backstories then like why Blathers is afraid of bugs, Sable talking about raising Mabel on her own after their parents' death, Mable actually talking to you about the store etc.

New Leaf made it short and now, the dialogues in New Horizons are even shorter and get repetitive pretty quickly. I enjoy a ton of the new features introduced (though they really need to improve on some as mentioned here) but it's disappointing they sacrificed a lot of entertaining villager interactions. At least bring us more minigames or let them invite us over to their houses or something.

And damn, some of the furniture items have gotten crazy expensive.

 

[Mayor Miraland]

Why are there such LONG cutscenes and interactions when you want to go to a friend's island? And why does everyone's game pause to watch you fly in? Bro, if you want to play with 6 people you have to sit through like 10 minutes of cutscenes

 

[Moonliet]

I wish ignoring villagers made it more likely that they would ask to leave, and that villagers asked to leave more often. I also wish that villagers visited the campsite more frequently.

Unrelated qualm - I wish we could have more than one island per console, even if the limit was two or three.

 

[Ananas Dragon]

Someone probably already said this but I'm so ultra annoyed at how long to takes for someone to move out.

 

[ParabolaBeam]

Why must I struggle so to get regular wood from the trees. I have stacks of hardwood and softwood for days but I think the only time I ever had a stack of regular was when they needed it for the shop.

 

[Rosewater]

Dragonflies being so much harder to catch in this game. Why...

 

[Romaki]

I really hope they add more hairstyles because I don't feel satisfied with the current choices. The Mii masks in New Leaf had more options.

 

[Romaki]

I really hate how only furniture with custom designs gets a different leaf color, anything that's customized should be indicated like that.

 

[John Wick]

Quite a bit, but that's mostly the NMT islands ripped me off 300000 in NMT's and not a single bamboo or hybrid.

Just freakin' pears.

The museum is beautiful, BUT the fossil rooms you can't zoom and it's so dark, I can't see what's there.

And put some reeds at least.. in the Oarfish/coelacanth tank!

I thought you couldn't move bridges isn't it that you have to demolish it first then rebuild it elsewhere?

That's one rant I have. Once you build a bridge you can't just move it

You'd think regular wood would be the most common one. I don't get why the stacks of wood aren't linked to the trees, we have three different ones at the moment and it'd fit them perfectly.
