Unpopular Animal Crossing opinions?

[carackobama]

Just as the title says - do you have any unpopular Animal Crossing opinions and if so, what are they?

Personally, I’m not a huuuge fan of most lazy and cranky villagers (except my sweet boi Beau <3). I also kind of hate gyroids, they freak me out a lot lmao. Character wise, I’m not sure I get the hype around certain popular villagers such as most of the wolves and Marshal. Also Celeste is by far my favourite NPC (tied with the Able Sisters) and I don’t think she gets enough love.

Let me know yours!

Celeste is up there for me too.
Personally I think the driving reason behind villager popularity is color schemes, that is the case for me anyhow. The more neutral the color scheme; the more themes they will likely go with. Houses are a factor as well! As for lazies, they are one of the personalizes I can tolerate the most. Peppies, snooties, and smugs are just too much for me.

For an (unpopular) opinion? I am all for micromanaging a town's look to the t; your villagers, their houses, your layout, etc. It is probably one of my favorite parts of this game, and I have only realized until New Leaf since we were given so much control. Seeing people tell stories just through how they decorate their town is something amazing.

Wild World is the worst main series game. Marshal is overrated.
Edit: Wild World isn’t bad, it’s just that CF, GCN, and NL beat it out of the park.

Marshal is overrated but I have him anyways cause he is a white villager and I also hate Isabelle.
and there is a lot of way more things I don't like in the game that others like.

I think I have a lot of unpopular opinions on the game. Here are a few:

- I don't like the sloppy series at all. I have OCD and it seriously irritates me to see things looking so messy and off-center.

- I don't like Bubblegum K.K. It's just not my style. I generally don't like anything too upbeat.

- I also don't see why certain villagers receive so much hype. I have nothing against those villagers, but I wouldn't go out of my way to get them. I've passed on Marshal twice when he was camping in my town...once before I knew anything about popularity tiers and once not too long ago. Nothing wrong with liking a popular villager. I just happen to prefer some of the mid to lower tier villagers.

1. City Folk is good

2. I don't think there's anything special about Isabelle, like she could not appear in any AC game ever again and it wouldn't bother me at all

idk that's probably it. lol

 

[pumpkinpuppy]

Isabelle is extremely irritating, and I wish there was an option to switch her for another character. Also her design is trying so hard to be cutesy that it becomes saccharine and offputting.

I desperately don't want her having a big role in the new Switch game.

1. I think New Leaf puts too much pressure on you as a mayor. Sure, I like the game, but the amount of control the player gets does not fit an AC game in my opinion.

2. I don't hate any villager or NPC. I tend to like normal villagers more though.

3. It might sound crazy, but I like the months before the release of a new game more than the actual game itself. This was the case with NL. The community was so alive and everyone was hyped. Can't wait.

I'm not into flowers. I don't plant them, I don't water them, I don't arrange them*, and I don't breed them. Bless the beautiful town ordinance for keeping my town looking pretty for me.

*bar one TBT event I hosted where I made an example image.

I don't really like the Happy Home Academy. Even back in the Gamecube version I found their letters annoying. Maybe I still have that negative association because I usually forget they even exist in New Leaf. I tolerated their existence in Happy Home Designer, and I'm not particularly excited that they will likely have increased prominence in 2019.

The Happy Home Showcase is good though.

Agreed! HHA in the main games feel kinda pointless to me, though HHS is cool.

I'm not a fan of those kawaii glasses that gives you a different eye look. I don't know what they're called tho, sorry. xD

The central storage system for closets and the locker. Yeah it's helpful when you don't have a lot of stuff, but when you play for years and you're a hoarder like me you run out of places to put things.

 

[Keystone]

Sometimes I wish I could move the rocks, those ones that are there forever. not sure if an unpopular opinion but they do drive me crazy sometime lol

 

[Blue Cup]

Wild World is not only the worst Animal Crossing game, but a terrible game all together.

Also, City Folk improved upon it in every way.

 

[moonbyu]

please don't murder me for these

I don't get all the hype over Julian. I know he's a unicorn and all but that's it.
I love to fall into pitfalls.
Chrissy and Francine look a bit weird
Some gyroids are cute, but others just worry me.
Pietro is kind of cute.

THISSSS I wish each closet/dresser/locker had separate storage!

Deirdre is CREEPY. Like uncomfortablely creepy. i love creepy but that is so ugly creepy I-WHAT IS THAT.

 

[Kristenn]

The bandages that people love to put on their faces just look strange to me and I don't get why you want you character to look beat up?

 

[Sweetley]

I'm not a huge fan of those towns where everything needs to be totally perfect, like every single item has to be in it's place and everything needs to fit with each other, otherwise it would be a "catastrophe". I prefer more the messy-ish looking towns, those which have a more cosy, relaxing atmosphere. Besides, I'm also not a fan of pastel towns which are just pink on pink with no other colors to find at all. I mean, don't get me wrong, I don't have a problem with people who have such a town and enjoy this kind of theme, it's just really not my taste at all.
