Imagine in the new Switch game, you have the opportunity to choose which duty you
would like to have in the town. Maybe by getting ask by Rover, the way you answer
his questions is which duty you will get at the end. Would you rather be a:
- Villager: Just like in the previous games, you're a simple villager, who however can
make choices by changing things in the town or decide about PWPs and other stuff
or
- Mayor: Like in New Leaf, you're the mayor again, this time, you can change more
things in your town and also do more, like making your own events and such
or
- Designer: Known from Happy Home Designer, you're can take the job as a Designer,
who can help out villagers to design their houses and you can also design the shops
of the NPCs
So yeah, which duty would you like to have if you could decide? And would you like
to have the option to change your duty in the game after a while?
I guess I would either choose to be a villager or designer again. Being the mayor isn't
that bad and kinda fun, but overall, I wouldn't mind if a NPC becomes the mayor again.
The job as a Designer was actually pretty cool and being a simple villager is also nice,
after all, before New Leaf, you (the player) was the whole time just a villager so yeah,
wouldn't mind that too to be honest.
I'd choose to be a Mayor or Designer.
I loved being able to do things with my town, so I don't think I'd just want to be a plain villager again.
Also being able to do more as mayor would be super fun.
And designer because I really enjoyed it. So doing houses or businesses how I'd want would be great. Then you could have the exteriors all matching if you wanted.
I love being a standard villager, but being Mayor is a lot of fun! The edicts and PWPs are a lot of fun to choose and place. I think I'd choose to be Mayor, though. There's just more to do! I think being a designer would be too stressful for me, though. I'm not that good at art or interior design!
I'd want to be Mayor or Designer. I just like creating things and for me not to have complete control over it (even tho in NL you don't have 100% control) makes me kinda eh
On paper, I feel that being a Designer seems like you have a little too much control - and that it'd kinda ruin the more relaxed side of the game for me. Of course, it could be implemented in a way in which it isn't overbearing, but I'm not sure if it'd work.
Mayor seems like the perfect middle ground and I hope we keep the role in the new title. You can control aspects of town, but it's still realistic. I would much prefer they just expand this concept rather than try to come up with a new role.
being able to design would be fun!! it'd be a chance to make your town even more unique!! i wouldn't want to give up mayoral duties though so if it were possible i could just make 2 save files.
it'd be surprising if this ends up being a game mechanic though, considering we have basically nothing to go off of...but in any case it's a neat idea!
I would like to be the mayor again, but I also like the option of designer and villager too. Sometimes I think it would be nice to go back to being the villager, but for right now it would be mayor again.
I want to be able to choose between at least mayor and villager in the game. As mayor, you should definitely have the option to deport certain villagers you don't like or at least have better control than in NL.
I'd rather be a villager. I liked Tortimer as the mayor or maybe have a new mayor.
It would have been interesting if the actual mayor from New Leaf showed up and was like "You know what? I want my job back." Then there could be a competition between you and the other mayor for the job.
