Will you be resetting for starter villagers?

[JKDOS]

No. Resetting for the map is hard enough. When you reset to get a good map and 3 good villagers, the possibility of meeting all criteria is probably a 0.0001% chance.

i?ll likely only reset if it?s two villagers that i really don?t like or if i?m not fond of my island but otherwise i?m not picky aha

 

[Jacob]

Probably not since I don't want to get attached and obsessed with keeping my first villagers from leaving. However I'm kinda getting the feeling that the villagers we show up with won't ever leave. They made a pretty big deal about 2 villagers coming with us rather than already being on the island I think

 

[blossoming]

Probably. I am curious to see if we'll still be able to plot reset or if not, choose where the villagers houses are situated. Hopefully we'll be able to choose where the villagers live because auto save kind of ruins plot resetting

I always tell myself that I won't. But then I get Barold. So yeah, probably. At least to the point of the villagers being tolerable. I would really love if I had at least just one of my faves. Like Merry, or Purrl, or Bob or Ed. But I really do not think that it is going to work out that way! And I do have their Amiibo cards. I do love that special feeling of starting off with regular villagers and growing to love one that wasn't a favorite before, and obtaining my dreamies slowly.

Wasn't it said that we have a special connection/bond with the two villagers we start out? Is it possible that they will stay forever or something like that? It would be weird if they'd just move away and that special bond that the developers talked about would just vanish and could never be established again with other villagers?

If they are to stay on your island forever then I'd definitely reset for two decent villagers.

 

[Ossiran]

I'll probably only reset if I get a map or villagers I really don't like.

 

[Llama_Unicorn]

If possible I'd like to get the map I want, and even one villager I want.

I plan to amiibo in who I want eventually, so if I find a fantastic map, I'd probably settle down there no matter who is there.

That?s a great idea!!! I?ve got my BFF on Amiibo.. she wasn?t on the rendering video though so I hope she?ll still be available

 

[Shinjukuwu]

Nope. I'm gonna stick with whatever I get, and that comes to villagers, fruits, and town layout.

 

[Misskiki]

I'm not sure if you'll be able to reset with the Switch's autosave feature but if you can, I probably will if the setup and character design doesn't take too long.

 

[Garrett]

Depends. If I get one of those ugly mice, frogs or ones I particularly dislike (Anchovy) then I'll probably reset. Otherwise, I'm pretty chill about it.

Can't wait for the thread where we reveal our starters!

 

[ForbiddenSecrets]

I'll reset the map if I really don't like it but I'll just deal with whatever villagers I get. Sometimes I make new favorites that way

 

[Chouchou]

I'll reset for at least a good map with 1 nice villager.

 

[deerprongs]

I personally want to start this game off on good terms (I resetted so much with NL because I wasn't happy with it that it made me lose interest vvv easily) so I won't be restarting at all. With that said, I am hoping to get some good starter villagers, but if not I won't be too upset. They'll likely be able to leave/move out anyway later on in the game, so not that big of a deal there anyway.

 

[isabll]

I'll try my best not to reset and just be happy with the map and two villagers I get on my first try. I used to reset and time-travel a lot when I played NL and I'm trying to be good this time around.

 

[AccfSally]

I might not, if we can use the cards to call them or whatever.
Then I would just do it for a layout.

 

[Riley9]

I will probably reset if I don't really like either of the villagers. Depending on how many new villagers are added, I really want at least 1 new villager when I start. But if theres only like 20 new villagers, I'm not gonna reset for that cause the chances are so slim.

 

[DrewAC]

I'm going to be very picky, not only with villagers, but town layout, too. As much as I'd like to just dive into the game, we've waited about 8 years for the game, and I'd personally want my town to be as close to my liking as possible.

 

[cicely]

I wouldn't bother resetting for villagers (it's not like they're permanent) but I might for a good town map. My original NL town's layout was so much of a pain that I sold it despite all the effort spent on it. I don't want to make that mistake again!

What was so painful about it ?
