• Guest, you're invited to help build our new TBT time capsule! It contains three parts, with some of its elements planned to open in 2029 and others not until the distant future of 2034. Get started in 2024 Community Time Capsule: Blueprints.

What will you do differently in this game than previous animal crossing games?

I won?t be time traveling. I am going to try to be excepting of all characters. I feel i?ve always been picky and friends with certain ones. I also want to try and havw all flowers in my town and not pick one. If i do pick one at least grow others and give them to people. I have never completed the game without cheating towards the end so this time i want to earn and work hard for things.
 
i will make equally big gardens for my villagers ( it varies now )
and for my own playable characters i'll make the gardens a little bigger.

i will have one house ( and surrounding garden ) and than a PWP ( probably a bench ) and than another house ( with it's surrounding garden ) and i'll place a street lamp at each end ( if possible if not due to a cliff or river or pond ) i'll try to move the whole lot one space away so it will fit. )
 
i won't time travel. this is honestly very difficult for me not to do, but i've found time traveling usually ruins my experience somewhat. the easier something is in-game, when it's meant to have difficulty, the less i enjoy it.

i also won't be restarting my town a 100000000 times. i want to make a town i enjoy from the start, and am willing to put time and effort into. this means i will put time and effort into the name, the potential theme, etc. i'll go into the game with an idea for what i want to do, and i'll do my best to make those ideas a reality in my town. restarting my towns just drain me of all inspiration and make me not want to play anymore, which makes me sad.

i want to spend more time gardening and making my town pretty.
i want to finish my encyclopedia in my own time, rather than relying on time traveling to complete it quickly.

basically, i have a lot that i will do differently when animal crossing comes out for the switch!

I want to plan my town right from the beginning, but I honestly doubt that will work. In ACNL, playing my first town for a few years really helped me figure out what I wanted in my second town, such as that I really had a hard time landscaping the little strip I had from my river starting as far north as possible, that I wanted apples as my native fruit, and that I wanted a brown train station so the inside wouldn't look so out of place in my town once I remodeled it. Starting completely fresh in a new game means I won't have any of that experience to choose a map.
Also, if there's something cool and rare like the little island you could get in WW, I'll almost definitely have to have that.
 
I?m probably going to soft reset to get a map I want the first time instead of on my second or third game. I got AC:NL the day it came out and map resetting or anything like that never occurred to me until way later because I was just so excited to be playing.
 
Not wasting time in resetting forever to get the "perfect" town. Just gonna pick the one which
looks fine and stick with that one. Probably also not gonna waste my time in getting any dream
villagers, this time, I'm just let them move in and out (to also have a higher chance by meeting
all the brand new villagers and also learn more about those old villagers I never really cared of
in the other games). Trying to not doing so much time traveling as I did in New Leaf (I'm still
not in the current time, help) and also finally trying to think about some kind of theme for my
town. My New Leaf town doesn't really have a theme at all (it's sorta a forest/ messy-ish town?
I don't know, it's a mess, kinda boring, needs more style) and I always wanted to do a town with
a cool theme, like my own horror town or something like this. But I never was that motivated to
actually stick with the idea and gave up before I even really started. So maybe this time I should
try my best to implement what I always wanted to do.
 
To shake things up, I've been thinking about maybe having the in-game clock be set foward/backwards 6 months so the seasons are opposite to that in reality. Assuming the game releases Q4, I could have my town start in Spring/Summer which in my opinion are the best seasons in AC. And since I am normally busy on holidays IRL, I could actually have time to enjoy them when they would occur in-game.
 
I'll actually try to "complete" it as much as I can. In previous games I always reset my towns, stopped playing or TT'd way too much to the point where It'd generally just ruin the experience for me.
 
Maybe I will be more patient but I guess not. Time traveling was always a part of the fun and I just can't do it without it. If somehow it happens that they remove it I will simple not play the titel at all. So no acutally I don't plan to make anything differently :)
