• 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.

Which of the 4 Laws would you choose for your town?

I think it's just you.
I don't know how I'm going to explain this so if you get confused it's ok

So. say in a 'non-rich town' - an item costs 1,000 bells at R-Parkers. and it sells for 250 bells.
Then in a rich town, the same item costs 2,000 bells at R-Parkers, and it sells for 500 bells

It's still the same ratio (4:1) so it shouldn't make any difference - though nothing about it has been confirmed but that's what I'm thinking and to me that just seems kinda pointless. I donno
Depends if the big money-makers are increased too. Do fruit, fish, turnips, etc. sell for more?
 
Since I tend to play later in the evening when the family has settled down, I will probably choose late night.
 
everything sells for more.

And it will be interesting to see how much more because this could change the game a lot for people who play online. If you have a friend with a rich town you could sell in their town and buy in yours.
 
Hm... Assuming that Rich Town doesn't affect buy:sell ratios, I'm guessing it's mostly for people who visit other villages/have many visitors. You can visit other people and get things for a discount, and have people come over to sell for more. In that case, I'd like to be able to charge taxes on visitors. That got me thinking. Maybe Rich Town has some kind of ability to get more money from villagers in some way, such as investing in shops, and getting a percentage of the money that villagers spend there based on how much you invest. I also hope that Late-night and Early Towns get some kind of bonus other than just affecting shop open/close times, like more activities in the morning/night. Maybe they might get exclusive outdoor furniture such as street lamps or maybe the picnics would be Early exclusive. Just some ideas. Hopefully you can adopt different laws, as long as they don't contradict or maybe just don't 'fit' with the laws you've already chosen, such as someone with Late-night can get Rich, but not Early or Beautiful.

But overall, I think we have too little info on the laws right now for me to make a final decision.
 
Changed my mind (again :p ), my town will be late night... Beautiful, erm... i dont even know anymore! :confused:
 
Hopefully we'll be able to change them as we like.
Haha if you can then we'll be able to trick it by changing to rich whever we want to sell something! xD
Maybe thats not such a good idea then.... xD
 
I'm not sure. Generally I don't play the game super early or super late....but then there's always the occasional annoyance particularly around the time shops close.

It seems like Beautiful Town would be the most useful for every day living.
 
Most likely I'll choose the "Late Night" law since I'm quite the night owl. Hopefully we get to change the law if we ever wanted to though...
 
I hope they have Fishing and Bug Catching laws.

Speaking of that, I hope they never add fish, bug, or dinosaur villagers. Then the museum would basically be a slave trade center.

Isn't there a new villager who is a woolly mammoth? :confused: Mammoths were displayed in the older games in the museum.

Anyway, I believe I'll choose a late night town. Mostly because I always find myself playing Wild World around midnight most days because I like playing it for a few minutes just before I go to sleep. I was considering the beautiful town, but I actually don't mind pulling weeds around town.
 
My thoughts for each... Also, I think we can change it, so I'm just going to go off that assumption instead of that we can only pick one. I remember in one of the trailers the girl was able to hope in the Mayor's chair and change it. I don't think you just pick it at the beginning if it's in the mayor's options menu.

Beautiful Town: This is an obvious option for me. It seems like it would be good to have this option on when I start to redo the tree and flower layout in my town. (This won't be something I start on for awhile after I get the game.) I may also have it on during the school year when I tend to go to bed earlier and have less time to play. It would help with making it so I have less chores to do while I have time to playing.

Late Night Town: Obvious option number two. I tend to be sort of a night owl when I'm not in school, so this will probably be my option all summer and during my month-long winter break. (This will probably be my best friend's choice all year, as he suffers from insomnia. So during the school year on the weekends I'll probably visit his town when it's late at night.)

Early Morning: Pretty useless. I do plan on playing early in the morning ever once in awhile, but never often enough to justify having this town. If I were older and able to wake up earlier, I'd pick this one. But for now, it'll be the only one I never use. I can see how it would be useful for others.

Rich Town: This seems good if you're not buying anything and JUST selling things. You could make money pretty quickly, and pay off a mortgage or a community project quickly. I can't really see using this until a long time has passed with the game and I'm not buying stuff from the shops every day. But by then I'll probably have paid a lot of stuff off anyway? Or maybe there will be enough things to pay off that you'll still be making community projects far into the game.

Nothing in Particular: Uh, why? If you're going to go with nothing you might as well go with Beautiful instead. Unless each option also has some sort of drawback?
 
I really can't choose between a beautiful town or a late night town.
I usually always play in the evening/night, so i might choose that one. The description of the beautiful town doesn't sound very appealing, but if it grows lots of flowers (Like the first town in the Direct last week) then I would want it.
I think I'm going to decide when we get a better idea of what each means In November when we begin to see gameplay online from people who get the Japanese version.
 
I'm thinking late night town. I really only get to play sometimes past 11pm, so having shops open later in the night is a must for me!
 
Definitely late night town! I hate Nook's closing so early in the other games.. That's why in City Folk I switched back to Nook n' Go for the extra hours. :D
 
I think I'll do late night, since I play a lot late at night and I generally avoid being up before 9. XD
 
I'd probably choose the late night town, mainly because I have no life, and will most likely just stay up all night playing.
 
Probably Rich Village... Then my sister will have Beautiful Village... Then I take her flowers and sell at my shops... And buy from her village... Mega bell maker!
