Lol tell that to Rodeo
For some reason they've just turned into dads.
I am proof
I decided to replace my pond with a crescent moon. Not only is the shape not very well supported by the game, the aquascaping controls are really terrible! And my controller has a bad case of drift, too
F*** AQUASCAPING

The past couple days every time someone’s crafting in their house it’s one of the DIYs you literally get on day 1. Why is this a thing. I WANT NEW DIYS NOT ONES YOU GET GIVEN FIRST THING. it made me so mad
and then they have the audacity to give you it anyways. Because I’m likely to find someone who doesn’t know how to craft a pot.

it ain't easy being cheesy
People complaining about the prices of stuff on sites like Nookazon, etc are completely right. Just noticed that today when I was trying to get the recipe for a brick fence - people are buying them for like 20 NMT, I've seen someone offer to pay 30 NMT, it's insane.
Nobody's grinding for a brick fence, these exploits should've been fixed before the game came out, it makes buying such a drag.

Ikr?
My Claude is lazy and he is always doing it.
Wolfgang, Freya, Mathilda, Cherry, Shep, and the rest. Constantly exercising.
It has put me off playing.
I turned it on this morning, saw Wolfgang exercising and shut the game down without saving.
Haven't played it all day.
Nintendo really needs to patch the rate this happens as it's surely putting other fans off their favorite villagers as well as the game in general.
i don’t think I’ve had a villager that hasn’t spent a good amount of time either lifting weights or doing yoga, no matter what their personality is. It’s sad but it feels like they don’t have personalities anymore, they’re all the same really, slight differ to dialogue every now and again. But relatively the same.
my cranky villager is the nicest villager on my island, and I didn’t have to work for it.
I understand Nintendo are aiming for a young audience but that’s always been the case so why dumb it all down now. If they were that worried about kids crying over being called a loner by Wolfgang then they could have at least made it an option to be spoken to like a child, so at least the older audience can actually connect with their islanders.
I’m still getting dialogue pointing out my vaulting pole, like why? They’ve all seen me walking around for weeks with it, I don’t need to hear the same dialogue over and over.
its even more sad that I don’t see Nintendo changing it

The constant spawning of loach, black bass, sea bass, dace and carp are the reasons I don't even bother fishing in this game anymore. I mean the guides 'claim' other fish are available but apparently that isn't true. I legit don't fish anymore, because it seems like waste of time when the only fish that ever show up are those five. And trash.
The constant spawning of those fish is making fishing tedious, annoying and unfun.

Honestly? The fact that prices on nookazon are so bad now bothers me so so much because, while you can still find good deals on there if you look for them and I’ve never had a bad experience, it’s mostly just like you said and I feel like when it started first it up it wasn’t. I actually remember my friends and myself saying things like “omg nookazon is so nice” and “lol people’s prices here are so much more reasonable than every other site” because a lot of sellers on there would ask things like literally just 500k bells for Raymond and Audie and 5k-10k each for white streetlamps and pastel teacups. I bought a bunch of crescent moon chairs from someone on there for 1 nmt each once, as well as several lilies of the valley for a really good price.
But now since it exploded in popularity prices like those are much harder to find and people instead want the typical hundreds of tickets and millions of bells for Raymond (...I see someone on there right now asking for 8,000–eight thousand!—tickets for him in fact), 200+ nmt for a single genuine art piece, and completely ridiculous amounts of both nmt and bells for items that aren’t even released yet. It’s become just like everywhere else except worse and full of people with bad reviews and it’s sad. And actually I think part of it is because way too many people just go straight through discord to do nookazon deals and don’t check anyone’s reviews on the site. Maybe there needs to be an easier way to access them from discord somehow (if there even is one?? been a while since I used the discord), so it won’t be so easy for scammers to feel like they can hide behind discord’s anonymity. Idk if I’m making sense lol but yeah. I used to love nookazon and I’m sad about how it is now.
Also, on a very slightly related note, here’s a rant of my own about nookazon: I always see people on there trying to trade customizable items for a different variation of said item and it bugs me so much every time. I don’t wanna be rude but is it really so hard to take your item to a crafting bench and try it out or just look it up on one of the many databases out there to check if it’s customizable?
I feel like it does nothing but clog up the search results because I recall when I was looking for a birthday cake on there a while back, the listings were full of people asking for a birthday cake for a birthday cake not knowing it could be customized. So I didn’t have anything to trade for one.Honestly?

this is a very real question
who the heck is sat printing 8000 NMT. I hate printing out just 1

now please I will accept the money-payment
I was about to post a thread about dude like what if the fixed camera angle... wasn't fixed bro and as I wrote out my thoughts I realized something that bothers me a ton when I'm trying to decorate
We have bridges and inclines. They are 2 units wide. Their existence encourages me to make my paths all over the island 2 (or 4) units wide.
Buildings, however, are an odd number of units across. The museum and Nook's Cranny, 7. My house, 7. All the other buildings, 5. Doors on buildings are 1 unit wide. So it follows that you cannot make a symmetrical path leading vertically to any building that is an even number of units wide to comply with bridge and incline width. Not to mention, arches.
That's not a NH specific problem, that's an unfortunate consequence of the unit/tile system, the fixed camera angle and the fact all buildings face the same direction, and NH only cracked it open with the new outdoor decoration options. I think the building sizes are fine otherwise and 2-unit doors on everything would be mega awkward. But it's still dumb.
What I suppose they could've done was make it possible to set building locations using half-units like you can with furniture. But then imagine the chaos that would cause with people trying to align their buildings just so and then end up having it a bit off anyway. And that would require that everything else like trees, rocks, paths, etc use half-units as well and that would just be a mess and you'd lose the meaning of units entirely.
But yeah the limitations of decorating, like how you can't do diagonal paths without getting creative, are because of the unit system, but like if you took that away, would what's left be playable yknow, would it even be Animal Crossing
Okay I guess an easier solution would be to just have 3-unit bridges and inclines, fine, dk why I didn't think of that earlier lol. Or to be able to place them on half-units so you can kinda fit them with odd paths like the way we put arches on 2-unit paths. Idk what the consequences of that would be either though so

My two DIYs yesterday were cardboard boxes and a log stool. Great, thanks Nintendo!
Villagers only appear on islands when you have open space or if you don’t have someone already coming to your island. You can message a friend as long as your best friends it’s been like that since the beginning.

My what? Don't leave me hanging like that man!
I don't think I will be playing NH much, besides trying to find the last few fossils. So I just log in, get the fossils, assess them, and then sell them since they're never what Blathers needs. I decide to talk to some of the villagers, against my better judgement, and they only talk about the fossils, picking up seashells, and how I am still wearing what I wore for a while.
There's a lot of my island that needs to be decorated and terraformed, but all the stuff that is available doesn't speak out to me. I don't want to just terraform and use furniture outside that I don't really care for just to get 5 stars or complete my island. I will do that when and if they add more content.
It's not so much that I need a break from the game. I want more content. It's really bare-bones when you realize it. Terraforming and decorating outside is awesome, but I think that hype blanketed everything that was gutted and missing.

Just feeling sad today about the direction the game went in.... Terraforming, exterior decoration, etc. are all a blast, and there are so many quality of life features in this game that I can't live without now (like not trampling flowers, removal of grass wear, villagers not moving out randomly...)... but at the same time so many important missing features in the social simulation aspect. AC was always unique because it focused so heavily on the realtime social sim aspect and not the top-down/godmode/customisation stuff.. I'm really tempted to start playing ACNL or even ACWW (which had some top tier social sim) again
It's wild because now villagers have so many unique differences and things they do that make them feel so alive (like singing), but they won't visit you, go through collecting phases, etc. idk
I also wish the game had a feature roadmap.. a lot of my discontent with the game would go away if I knew certain features were coming back eventually or by a certain time... the uncertainty introduced by 'well, maybe that favourite feature will come back, maybe' is a lot to handle when I'm so invested... I would be living my days on the island so differently with certain features (like diving, café, gyroids, minigames, villager dates) back, so it makes it feel somewhat artificial.
ACNH is so good I feel like I can't go back, but at the same time it's missing so much...

I actually went back to NL to see how the market street was set up so I could decorate my shop area like that. And hearing the street music and then when it changed to rain...and the hourly music in the main town. It made me miss the variety in the music. It wasn't just rehased versions of the same song.
I also played PG to see how it aged and man both NL and PG villagers were so unique. And the music to. I don't know it could just be preference over music, but I saw a poll here that was 50% for and against it. And that's a huge indication they missed the mark somewhere.
