What killed Animal Crossing for you?

What killed the original AC for me was not the actual game but, the memory card corruption crap. I started up a town over 3 times but, each one except the most recent one I lost through memory card corruption. I may go back to AC:pG some day but, as of now, I'm currently enjoying ACCF & looking forward to AC 3DS.

Animal Crossing Wild World on the other hand, I totally lost interest in it because of (1) the crappy music, (2) boring town geography, & (3) I got bored of it after collecting everything and hacked it until all remaining interest in the game was lost to me.

That's my story on this subject.
 
ACGC - A little repetitive, because I basically finished everything in my first town.

ACWW - I got hacked by someone on ACC, and i hate my new town :'(

ACCF - SO boring. Just a copy and paste of ACWW, I swear!
 
Original - My bro hacked our town so I had nothing to do...

WW - Caught all fish, missing to bugs but couldn't find, nobody play with to make exciting

CF - Starting back up, but school etc
 
City folk never really died in my eyes, it's just that my life gets too busy sometimes.
I have a policy not to bring home consoles to collage with me, so my wii would stay home. Plus I don't play much animal crossing in the winter, simply because there isn't anything to do :p
But near the summer months I always pick up and play it again :)
 
Repitiion and lack of pixel quality(WW). There also wasn't much creativity anywhere. Just plain old life with animals. -.-
 
ACWW: No one to regularly play with so i got bored, even though i still love it.

ACCF: The fact i can't move it to my room so i can only play on it occasionly.
 
AC: ACWW
ACWW: AC:CF
AC:CF: No original music, horrible character interaction, gimmicky city which, for the most part, only removed things from your regular town and moved them to a new location.
 
Animal Crossing works the same as Harvest Moon for me, I play non stop for 3-4 weeks then get bored for a few months and then go back to it.
 
school and i start to get bored on wifi
i didnt do anything if there was only 1 person there i owuld just go on computer
 
It gets repetitive, and the fact that you need to play every single day to keep the town in balance kind of throws me off. I'm playing it again, I'll just have to see how long it lasts before I get bored again, bahaha.
 
Well, eventually the game just gets boring. It's just the way things are.

However, the sequels taking away from the charm by changing things that don't need to be changed has killed my love for the series. Especially City Folk. City Folk is only playable if you have online, otherwise it is extremely bland and really just a watered down version of Wild World.

Hopefully Animal Crossing 3DS will change the trend of each Animal Crossing game released being progressively worse than the last.

Pretty much the same for me. I started a new City Folk town and the clock is ticking on my impending boredom.

What I know is going to kill it for me eventually is when the grass in my town has been worn down to dirt. I read it described somewhere as, "spinach and cheese barf". I really dislike this feature and I hope it isn't in the 3DS game.
 
It just got boring, I've done everything i could. The fact that it's supposed to be a life simulation game is helps support the fact that it gets boring, if they added more things to do they still had something to do with a life simulation game but were fun even if repeated i would play it more.
