Crafting is probably one of the most controversial additions to AC. At first I was kind of on the fence about it, but now I?m fully on board, strangely enough for the same reasons I was hesitant about it at first.
The following is just speculation, we still know very little about the game, even though it releases next month.
For now; furniture, wallpaper/flooring, tools, accessories, bags, and possibly edibles are all the items that have been confirmed for crafting; based on the crafting tabs on the Nookphone app.
But what if crafting recipes go beyond the options on the app. For example, when building attractions on your island, like a bridge; would we just pay the construction fee like we would in NL, or would you need to gather a large amount of hardwood, iron, stone, etc, in order to start construction? What about something like The Roost or police station? Would we need to save up a bunch of materials to have them built?
The fact that there are bags we can equip that are tailored to gathering, kind of gives credence to that idea. Such as the back pack carried in one if the images released, its sole purpose seems to be for wood gathering. Perhaps we can lay out plank-style paths, and equipping this bag will allow us to lay out more paths at a time, without taking over precious inventory space.
Also, check out the trowel used to lay out the paths. What if we need to gather a ton of clay in order to lay out the clay path, a bag dedicated to collecting ore would make it a lot easier.
How far do you think crafting will go? Do you prefer it to be more of a hobby? Would you mind if it is a more vital part in developing your island?
