Unpopular Opinions

My current unpopular opinion is people sulking about the events and wanting this years DIYs to still be available next year. I'd be bored if they released the same ones next year. (I actually dont have half of them because I started my current file on september 1st, so I'm not saying this because I safely have all of them).

I think the idea of retiring certain event DIYS makes it more fun and gives them a certain value? If you missed out on this year, you missed out on this year, there will be new ones to collect next year.

I think they had limited edition items in New Leaf through the post office (some kind of zodiac item maybe? Cannot remember). I wasnt crying unfair when I missed out on those. I thought limited items were a fun idea.

My understanding was that no DIYs have been removed from the game. You can just time travel to the event you missed (forward or backwards) and get everything.

That isn't to say that most players play that way, but I'm not aware of any inherent exclusivity to any of the items. Maybe the patch download rewards, maybe?
 
I don’t know if this is unpopular or not, but I dislike some of the hair colors available. I am hoping they will add more options in the future, because there are only a few that I like. There’s just something off about some of the colors available. For example, the purple feels way too pink to me.
 
I don't know if I said it here but..I don't care for Brewster and rather not see him or gyroids in NH. I don't want to have to map out where his cafe would have to go on my island and the gyroids are rather annoying. I liked maybe three from NL and tbh digging them up after it rained in NL was a pain in the butt. Considering it rains a lot on my island I really wouldn't want to dig up a ton of gyroids..as for Brewster..I find his design strange and unfitting for an island and his cafe just rather boring. I mean you get coffee and then that's it. I mean you can work there to I guess but that was rather tedious and he'll most likely get repetitive dialouge like Isabelle so again I rather him stay a distant memory..if anything Kapn (as much as I dislike him) should return along with Tortitmer with minigames n such..
 
I love Maple and lots of other bear cubs, but the bear cubs are honestly just creepy.

I mean, they're BABIES that act like adults. And the cranky bear cubs...cranky personality types refer to themselves as being old. An old...bear cub. That's honestly just kinda creepy.

Never thought of it that way before but now I see what you mean
 
Cats have some of the most boring designs. I’m just not a huge fan of the animals that have “sticker mouths” (mouths that are animated on their face rather than moving like a puppet). I have a few exceptions that I do like but I don’t think they’re as awesome as a lot of people make them out to be.

On that same token, I don’t think tigers as a species are horribly designed. There are some that I find interesting!
 
My biggest unpopular opinion is that the crafting system is pants and I wish they’d never added it into the game.

I also don’t understand the hate for Raymond. I get that he’s been super hyped up and people get a bit creepy about him, but it’s just a fictional character. I don’t think he has the worse design or the most interesting. He’s ok but I don’t understand the hate directed toward him.
 
Unpopular Opinions? Why not?

Crappy online isn't a big deal because Animal Ceossing is a mostly single player game and Nintendo needs to realize that and not force people to trade online.

There is no place for guns, murder, and violence in Animal Crossing and if you want to play a game with guns you should go play one of the dozens of hardcore shooters out there.
 
Alright here's one

Buying a game does not mean you are entitled to influence its development. Sure, we can speculate and hope for things, but the developers do not owe us anything. They also aren't obliged to keep bugs, unintended mechanics and general features in the game because someone liked them. That's not how it works. :)
 
I don't like purple roses in New Horizons. Which is a shame cuz it's my favorite color and flower.

They look way too much like black roses from previous games. They're not bright enough and they're more burgundy than that pretty, if unrealistic, candy purple. They looked fantastic next to pink and blue flowers. Now they're kind of boring.

Sure. Real (undyed) purple roses are more of a plummy color. Fine. However, my neighbors are talking animals and balloon presents fall from the sky. Let me have my candy-colored flowers, please.

I agree so much. The purple roses are very disappointing color - I wish they were brighter like the purple tulips. Not sure why they changed the color for NH but yeah, not aesthetically pleasing at all.
And the gold roses imo are hideous. I can’t really make them “work” on my island. I have a few scattered in places but they’re just awful.

I've headcanoned bear cubs into a dwarf sub-species of the full-size bears. They're not cubs, they're just little bears.

The gold roses are just tacky. I wish instead they were gilded or glittery. The solid gold looks funny.
 
Some more unpopular opinions:
I don't like Flurry. She just looks kinda ugly to me.
I don't really understand all the cottagecore islands. I mean, even though it's my character's aesthetic, I want the island to be more of a tropical paradise.
Tabby is actually kinda cute. She's low on my ranking of all cat villagers, but in the middle on my ranking of all the villagers.
I think houses that look unrealistic are ugly with a few exceptions.
Some villager houses have mismatched furniture which I hate. Just pick a style, Rhonda!
Not really sure how unpopular these are, but whatever.

Interesting. I've never once viewed them as children. There are no other kid species after all and they act just like the other species. I just used cub the same as pony.

Your opinion is totally legit, but it did plant the image of the little pop guns (the ones with the cork and the string and they go POP) as a holdable item in my head, and now I kinda want one. Or a toy pew-pew laser gun.
...OOOR a flare gun, when someone shoot it in the air it creates a flare 'blip' on your map, so you can see where they are on your island! :eek:

Oh yeah, my unpopular opinion:
Digging up clams and crafting fish bait is tedious, but not insufferably so. I play sometimes to just putz around, do menial tasks and just zone out, or fill up time waiting or something. I would welcome bulk crafting, but not having it isn't a deal breaker either.
