I'm just a ghost.
Despite what I think of this game weather it has its good moments or bad moments, I cannot deny that I have learned a lot from playing this game since I played it for the first time last year. I mean this is probably the one game that has made me open my eyes and realize a lot of important elements in life that I never once thought of. I will share them here:
1. Being yourself and not let others judge you for who you are:
This is something that I learned from this experience. I learned that I can be my own person and not let others judge me because I'm different. When I was making my island the first time I had no idea what I was doing and I was really pushing myself so much when trying to make my island and just really drove me crazy. However, in the end I learned a great lesson and how I made my island the way I want it to be. I went with a mindset of "stuff that used to look good then doesn't look good now" and then I picture in my mind what can I turned this into and then the idea just comes to my head and I just make it how I see it has potential. Its always best never to compare yourself to others. I was guilty of that myself last year when I was overwhelmed by so many good islands from other people. I learned that its best to just to make what you feel works for you. Sure I have taken inspiration from others but still I made whatever was in my head. No copy or paste from other's islands. I know sometimes we are at war with ourselves when we struggle to find what makes an island so good but the moral of story is always make how you feel works for you and not worry how others do their island.
2. Taking your Time and not rushing stuff to get done so quickly:
Patience was the one thing I lacked and I am someone who was trying to stuff way too quickly and I was rushing to get my island completed which caused me to become too stressed out and anxious. I learned that Taking your time is something I learned and I am now more comfortable doing stuff bit by bit and not rushing through. I did a lot of that last year and thats the reason why I got exhausted from the game. I learned that there is no need to rush to do stuff so quickly. At the moment I saw people redoing their islands not because they hate it but they want a fresh start while we are waiting for updates. I restarted my old island because I knew that rushing really made me feel bad about how I did it. So I restarted to get a fresh mindset and it was worth it. I am glad to have learned so much from last year and now I can finally chill and relax to enjoy my time instead of feeling rushed to do stuff.
3. Sometimes its best to get your mind off of something whenever you're going through a rough time by playing Animal Crossing:
When the Covid-19 Pandemic was confirmed in March 2020 it was the time that I got Animal Crossing New Horizons for the Nintendo Switch and it was the game that really helped me through the pandemic. Sure it has its issues but it wasn't for this game I would be so lost in my thoughts and not know what to do. So yeah Animal Crossing really saved my life. I know I criticized the game so many times in threads but I would not ignore the fact that it helped me during a difficult time. So I will give credit to New Horizons as much as I given this game a lot of criticism I won't deny it has really been part of my life now and its a game that I can always go back to whenever there is something new happen. For that I am grateful and its the one game that I can always come back to whenever I feel like I am too stressed and I need something to get my mind off of things whenever personal life issues are going on.
So thats basically all the life lessons I learned when playing Animal Crossing New Horizons. What are some of yours?
