Seriously, as much as I'm excited for the upcoming update, the DLC as well as for Lottie's comeback and the new NPCs, there is one thing which actually bothers me about the announcement but also about New Horizons in general: The lack of Digby and Lyle.
How comes that the one guy who's the twin brother of probably the most liked NPC, one of the main characters in Happy Home Designer (the precursor of Happy Home Paradise) and also the crush of Lottie, and the other guy who's one of the oldest NPCs, representative of the Happy Home Academy, also a main character in HHD and Lottie's uncle getting little to no attention whatsoever and seem to be gonereduced to atoms now, despite the fact that both would have perfectly fit to the update/DLC? I swear, they are both the most underrated and underused characters in the Animal Crossing universe and if someone like Tortimer (who was pronounced dead by half of the fandom ever since the release of NH and before the direct dropped) can get a comeback, why not these two guys too? Nothing against Niko and Wardell, but I would have rather seen the return of Digby and Lyle as a chaotic duo now supporting Lottie as best as they can in her new job and finally getting a purpose in this game instead of seeing them still rotting in the void of forgotten characters.
I just hope they come back at some point because I do miss them both.
