The Resetting Thread

[oliv]

I anm contemplating a restart but i have no friends to keep the essential items I would like to recover mainly my kaiju and super robot as well as my bells the rest i can live without but restarting fresh at the date of game comning out and playing accelerated days I kinda want to. Just a shame I'll lose fuchsia

Hi! Don’t worry, you can also keep some of your villagers!
It’s hard to explain but basically you tell your villager to leave (you can search tutorials on youtube) and when they are packing their stuff you ask a friend to come to your island.

Your friend invites the villager to their island and the villager goes and starts living there.

You reset your island and when you reset it and get a one, you tell your friend to kick the villager out and you go to their island when the villager is packing their stuff and you invite them to live in your new island! Hope it helps

I didn’t explain it well I’m sorry but it’s kinda hard ⋆౨ৎ˚⟡˖ ࣪

I’m also restarting my island. Haven’t found the perfect map yet though. 2 days and nothing. I also have set my switch to the release date. Not sure why though.

Update on my resetting.

Ok I’m going to try and be nice here. I had just recently restarted my island and got a pretty awesome map, got some items and recipes from people here, got perfect villagers, and had a good time playing.

However when I unlocked terraforming…I was doing a few days at a time to get there…once I started to work on my entrance area I found out that the space between the airport and the resident services was just shy of what I needed.

Now that pissed me off. I had big ideas…planned out and everything. It just made me so frustrated with the game so I deleted it again. I hate looking at something and know it’s not what I really wanted.

Well I’m now in the process of getting a new map and hopefully get it right this time.

Sigh. I know it’s not the games fault but I just had to get this off my chest.

I haven't played New Horizons in a hot minute and decided to restart instead of picking up where I left off. I can't remember what I was planning to do with my islands anyway (and I do not have the motivation, let's be honest.) New island it is! I've also wanted to create an island journal ever since I joined, so it could be a fun adventure! ♡♡

I am going to likely end up resetting. I don't think I like terraforming as much as I thought I did. and my island is completely destroyed and I have absolutely no interest in fixing. I'm even playing Tears of the Kingdom more and more just to avoid the island. lol So I'm going to restart again and get a map that I like that I can work with with minimal amount of terraforming.

I'm good with any map that I get just want apples and a non green airport.

I've never liked terraforming that much either. I did very very little to help with ramps, bridges, and smoothing out some of the cliff and rivers. And I added another pond near my house. I wasn't picky when I started my game back at launch (got it and played it that very day!) so I picked a map that looked good to me and went with what I got. I got apples, but I also got the green airport. While I can understand not wanting something else that's green when the island is green for so much of the year, I actually like how it looks. But if I were to be picky on that, I would have liked a blue one. Before NH, I had City Folk and New Leaf, and both times I started with peaches, so was really hoping I'd have peaches again on NH. But I do have to admit, there's something ultimately classic about starting with apples.

I erased my data early this year, decided I'll wait until tomorrow (when the snowflakes are gone) to begin anew.
