Today I Learned: New Horizons Edition

[Pintuition]

Today I was making an apple chair for Apple's yard and I learned it's customizable- you can actually change the type of apple the chair is designed to resemble. It was a simple little thing but I had no idea any of the fruit stuff was customizable!

today i learned that isabelle has buck teeth.

Today i learned if you run and jump off a second story cliff off the north u can do a flip into the water

I learned that villagers can give you their picture through treasure hunts! I saw a post about it on reddit! I find that to be super cute way to get your villagers’s pictures.

Today I learned that the bamboo grass item in the game is interactive and reads out wishes.

prolly not interesting to old acnh players but as a relatively new player, I'm very pleased that sable gives you gifts after befriending her. I talked to her constantly only because I loved her strangers-to-friends dialogue development from NL, but I didn't know befriending her actually had benefits in NH (because in NL she'd give the QR code machine, and in ACNH you get the kiosk code machine from the get-go).

Today I learned that if you shake a tree multiple times, sometimes a branch will fall out! I just assumed that if you shake once and that’s the end of it, item or not. If you shake a tree once and something falls out, chances are something else might fall out too if you keep on shaking!

I think the most branches I've gotten out of a single tree is 7 or 8. Pretty handy, especially early on in the game!

idk if it's happened to anyone else, but I once shook a tree after getting 8 branches from it and another branch fell out. I didnt bother to know the max but I'm pretty sure I got at least 30 branches from that single tree. :0

anyway, TIL that the bamboo doll is based on the tale of Princess Kaguya! My friends and I watched the animated movie on Netflix last week so when I crafted my first bamboo doll today, I was very happy to know what the bamboo doll meant. I think it's one of my favorite in-game items now!

You can do the flip into the water from any non-sand ground, including the big rocks on the beach, the dock, and the airport dock, you just have to run and press the A button when you're still a little far away from the water. If you're too close, you do a regular cannonball sort of jump.

I feel like I learn new things every day. Here are some things that I’ve learned over the last two months of playing.

I learned that you can sit on the playground jungle gym! Learned this by seeing a villager sitting on it

Pascal does not appear if you’re playing multiplayer or if your gates are open. Very disappointing.

If you give a villager a new catchphrase, other villagers will start using them too. This was quite upsetting as the catchphrases are themed and I don’t want everyone saying the same thing. But this can be fixed by speaking to Isabelle. Have to speak to Isabelle at least once a day now for this reason.

Complaining to Isabelle about clothes you gave a villager only changes them out of it for the moment. It doesn’t remove it from their wardrobe as they can be wearing it again at a later time.

That I should be using Harv’s island and save myself time and money and materials from decorating rooms and then not liking it.

Apparently the reaction menu is fixed to your character, and if you run away from the camera in photo mode, it becomes really small

 

[basicbobagirl1130]

I don’t really know if someone already posted this but today I learned that when you interact with the retro gas pump, the numbers actually change!

 

[tajikey]

I learned that you can only get one zodiac recipe from Celeste a month. I used Turnip Exchange to track Celeste down for what I thought was the Leo Sculpture. Turns out I visited an island that was in February, and got the Aquarius Urn. Fast forward two days when I realized this happened, found Celeste again at an island set to the correct date, and she gave me a large star fragment. That sucks.

 

[Aleigh]

Today I learned Dobie is way popular than everyone thinks and I have people offering 10mil+ bells when he JUST moved onto my island again (and I even got offered Raymond??)

 

[HappyTails]

Hobbies. I just discovered like literally 2 seconds ago that each villager has 1 of 6 hobbies, and those hobbies determine some of what the villagers do. Like the ones that sing in the plaza all day and never go home are the villagers with the music hobby.

Wow, the little things in this game.

 

[Whohaw]

Today Celeste gave me 5 star frags instead of a diy.
Also i think that my last item to collect would probably come form wisp. I have
been asking for something new from day 1 and last week he gave me clothes....clothes...i did not know wisp gave clothes.

 

[DeltaLoraine]

Today I learned that you can't use the dream suite with a wand outfit on

 

[Le Ham]

TIL villagers can gift other villagers furniture. I've never seen this before, so it might be part of the new update but Idk for sure. Clay asked me to deliver what turned out to be a rattan stool to Melba.

...And then Melba referred to Clay as a "she," which was interesting

 

[Skyfall]

That you can’t use dreams if you don’t have a subscription
