Tbh...every villager got a downgrade. I'm tired of having the same conversation over and over with every villager type. I wish they'd stop adding new villagers and start giving each a district personality and dialogue, like in the gamecube version. (Yes, I am THAT person who can't let the classic go). I just want a villager to be mean to me honestly lmfao
@@prttyrose3156 ya i know, but since this video is talking about how to improve Isabelle's role and not make her dialogue too repetitive, this weather/shooting stars comment is more of a suggestion to improve Isabelle's role
I feel like rover is the MOST downgraded character in acnh, he went from being the first character you saw in new leaf, to being restricted to 1 DAY IN A WHOLE YEAR!!! He could be in a future cafe update, where he could appear once in a while to give you travel diys or give you a task to do for furniture!
That’s fair. I mostly wanted to stick to characters that you still see often though , since otherwise the list would have a bunch of one-off characters like Rover, Reese, etc.
There need to be more shops. We should be able to build an Observatory for Celeste and put it somewhere on the island. Same goes for a cafe and other things.
they added the art exhibit to the museum as an afterthought so i really don’t see why they wouldn’t be able to include an observatory for celeste somehow
I think they should add a city type thing like in City Folk with all the shops just so people who spent a long time on making their islands perfect don't have to completely change the layout to include things like a cafe or observatory.
Honestly I feel like K.K. Slider and mr resetti are the most downgraded ones KK slider literally does nothing except for awkwardly sits in front of the town hall And Nintendo basically killed resetti with his “new job”
What are you talking about? K.K. Slider is playing songs all day. Makes more sense to be busking than just sitting around waiting for someone to talk to.
@@Alice-zy6gj um no. I played it because it was another animal crossing game and I'm a huge fan of the series. But the many things it's lacking that were there in other games just doesn't make it good. And I personally don't want to update my game every month or so to get things that should be there from the beginning anyway.
@@Alice-zy6gj I'd rather wait longer and play a full game with everything and new features than get an unfinished game with barely anything in it. Then also wait for updates to get smth that makes the game more exciting for a few days. Seriously. And the "little things" aren't anything to look forward to since, like I said, they should have been in the game anyway. Yes, the updates have some newER features that haven't been in previous games(such as new furniture or fences) but it's rlly nothing more than having the special holiday occasions back.
While barlod flirting with my villagers (barlod is one of my villagers) boys and girls (ik its not it its just random and not meant) but im proud also he gave me a card that he spilled gravey on a card and sent it to me i feel like a proud ma ma that feeds him day by day till im broke 🌝❤️
I feel like Isabelle has been downgraded in New Horizons because she really took the spotlight in New Leaf and Tom Nook didn’t do as much. So it’s understandable is having her not do as much. Hopefully in the future, she can mention if a special character is on the island or come out of Residents Services more for future holidays.
Also in New Leaf there was a event in February which was Groundhog Day. So maybe Resetti and Don can run this event for like a February update but I’m not sure.
She can be less of importance while not being annoying. You already have to wait forever for the game to boot up and then for the announcements to boot up, only for her to tell useless stuff. I just find it ironic, because everyone loved Isabelle, the kind hearted workaholic. Everyone thought she deserved her vacation. Now she's got her vacation and she feels like a new character because her personality is flipped once you get past "sweetness".
@@amandaslough125 THIS. She could've taken a back seat gracefully, rather than being front and center, babbling on about her stupid tv shows, or belly button lint, or losing her sock, OR - talking to her mom and dad....which could be a sore spot with those who are separated from their parents or have even lost them during this stupid coronavirus crisis. It's a real thing.
You should also add all the characters who were literally replaced by furniture items or become temporary visitors. Cyrus and Reese? Replaced along with their shop 'Re-Tail' by DIY tables. Harriet? Replaced along with her shop 'Shampoodle' by mirrors. The pelicans who ran the post office? Replaced by the small post box inside the airport. And now, Leif and Kicks don't even have their own shops. And judging by the datamine, Brewster won't be having his cafe either. Plenty of interesting special characters and buildings missing. It's funny and sad because this game emphasises on terraforming, but lacks furniture variety and special buildings. This game feels more like an island decorator instead of an island life simulator.
Every one need a to understand to stop comparing them. They r not the same GAME. New leaf was all at once with its game and new horizons has a 3 yr plan...like the idea or not . But they approached this game differently. So u can't compare them until new horizons is complete . It's not currently.
I like to think that Isabelle and the rest of the gang has to run from their home and swim across the ocean to reach the island. The image of Isabelle fighting the Kraken makes me more patient
That’s because, there is a set time, let’s say it’s 1 minute. You take 30 seconds to log off, it them will take another 30 seconds to load when you go back on. If you don’t want to wait next time, take longer exiting the game.
I think that you should be able to change what music plays on your island..for example by talking to Isabelle, you could change the Acnh 9pm tune to the 9pm tune from new leaf, or city folk,etc.
I kinda wish that there was a mute button for the background music so that you can place radios and such around your island and still hear that but not have the background music interfere. It can be pretty annoying depending what mood you're looking for on your island.
I’m honestly not a big fan of this game compared to New Leaf. It just feels empty. I know they’ll keep adding updates for holidays and stuff, but if they’re like anything we’ve gotten so far (Bunny Day) I’m not looking forward to it. I’m just not a fan of the updates in general. Most of them have just added stuff that was in previous games. If it’s NEW Horizons then the stuff it should be adding should be NEW.
BMoney8600 Yeah, I don’t know if it’s the nostalgia talking, but it just doesn’t feel the same. The bigger focus on customization instead of the life sim aspect kinda kills it for me tbh.
Honestly, seeing how the updates are and how good the fall update looks is giving me hope. I honestly think this is going to be the best Animal Crossing. Getting back into it after a while, I’m really enjoying myself. My villagers seem to have new dialogue as well.
We need villager upgrade because my villagers sound like broken records rather than real friends who love to talk to you, visit you, send letters to you and have them simply hang out. Edit: More conversations! More info in the morning announcements like “I bet the meteor shower tonight will look great with friends! I love watching meteor showers with my family and friends!”
I agree with this 100%! The villagers say the same thing over and over. No more charming conversations like Wild World nor New Leaf...im still hoping they improve the conversations but I honestly doubt it. Its fucking Nintendo...
jaimealexlara, yeah. I was surprised that Nintendo was one of those people who make you pay for multiplayer when it should’ve been like Minecraft. Free multiplayer.
This entire video speaks deeply to my heart. I love NH. I have played it for a very unhealthy 1000h by now. However, I'm so sad by how so many legacy characters were left by the wayside. There's always hope of their return but the wedding event with Cyrus and Reese barely did them justice. I loved how many non-villager characters New Leaf had and while I don't mind Gulliver and Gullivarrr that much, I'm so sad about Resetti. He is not even visible and can't be called to Harv... whose island I mainly use for planning out rooms. And to throw "Goodbye Parties" for villagers who move out. I'm also really sad about how many characters were lost due to the Dodos and a postcard stand. A lot of quality of life updates sadly came at the cost of beloved characters.
I honestly think one of the biggest flaws when it comes to New horizons is the lack of personality and dialogue to play 'safe'. too many attention on details, effects and seasons made the other way around when it came to that and it really makes me sad as it gets really boring sometimes
Isabelle: Literally a menu Wisp: Worthless side quest Brewster: DEAD Resetti: Goes against everything he's ever known and just resets your position Themed, fun furniture: Monthly, not at release Lloid: Donation box Regular villagers: Repetitive, rarely ever funny Digby: Who? Rover, Re-Tailers, Zipper: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA Fanbase: Toxic KK: Sits in one spot every Sat. Leif, Kicks: From shops to shacks Pelicans: O b j e c t s The entire franchise: Dead as we know it Me: Sad I mean, the game isn't bad, but MANY, MANY improvements need to be made. Y'all should be glad this isn't amiibo Festival 2.
Honestly why DID they make it Dodo when they could have upcycled Pelly, Phyllis, and Pete to be Pelican Planes/_____ Delivery/Stork Transport etc??? Then we could have Phyllis deliver mail and leak island gossip. You could also have left messages for people who have visited with your Visitor Pass etc with Pelly/Pete...this would have been so cute.
@@LoulouVitt her name is Katrina and we definitely need her and gyroids back. Gyroids is in the data mine so maybe whenever we get Brewster we’ll get gyroids too
i think celeste should visit on the first of every month (meteor shower or not) so you can make new constellations that appear every so often throughout the month! it’d add more diversity to her speech because (possibly) whenever she shows on a meteor night she can chat about the stars and your new constellations!
I personally prefer Gulliver & Celeste in this game. I didn't like having to look up the answers for Gulliver in New Leaf (yes, I am that uncultured), and this is the first game where I actually give a crap about Celeste at all because I want those DIYs. I also enjoy that she tells about the Zodiac signs if you bring her the items/fragments relating to them; much, MUCH more interesting than standing around the museum. I feel Leif has been done dirty. He used to have his own shop and now he's a random visitor, whaaaat? I kinda feel similar about Label, too. But Isabelle and Resetti do have to be the most painful downgrades. Listening to Isabelle add insult to the no-announcements injury every day with her repetitive dialog is really making me dislike her...I don't wanna dislike her.
@@presto_pesto Well, I mean some characters are a different gender in Japan, so I don't think it's that weird to get confused. But I'm certain Leif is male in America...
@@Kazoo_Itchy if you want a good example of why people fell for her as a character, look up the fan song "turning over a new leaf". That aspect of someone making the town function whenever you're gone, along with cute moments used to show game progress (like seeing her fall asleep unlocked the option to build the dream suite), really cemented her as an endearing character.
Some characters I think were downgraded are Wisp He used to have such a fun role taking the form of other characters and being able to bring villagers into your town, now he’s just an annoying side quest Lloid Since tortimer island was removed Lloid only has one role which is unfortunately his least interesting role, being a donations box However I do actually really like Harv’s Island more than most people, the wedding event is one of my favourites, it’s a great way to create fun screenshots, especially when you bring villagers and NPCs into it, and you can get them to do exactly what you want so you don’t have to worry about them walking away like you would when taking photos on your island, but mainly a lot of people have created animal crossing mini movies with harvs island which are very entertaining and cool to watch, so overall I definately think it’s a good feature
I don't use Harv's island much but it's a fun feature. I honestly would have preferred Harv's island being done by a different NPC and keep Harv with the RVs. Why? I was really hopping he'd come back with the RVs and we could rent one. And also be able to see Random NPCs in his campsite
I think the most disappointing one not on this list is Reese and Cyrus. I mean I did enjoy the wedding event in June. I thought it was cute how you took wedding photos of them for their anniversary, and I loved the wedding items you got from Cyrus in exchange for the heart crystals that Reese rewarded you with for taking the photos, but I would have rather had Re-Tail back. It felt more convenient having two stores to sell things at, plus if you were still playing the game at 10 PM after Nook's Cranny was closed, Re-Tail was still open for that hour. I liked being able to sell items there and see villagers buy them. It was also convenient having Cyrus re-paint various furniture items (which you can't even do with the customization kits for most of them) and make clam shell music boxes (something I'm surprised hasn't been brought back as a DIY recipe since with the giant clams and K.K. Slider albums, the materials are there and all that's missing is the DIY recipe.)
Its sad to see some absolutely beloved characters lose their worth, I hope Nintendo can pull it back in the next year or so. New horizons has so much potential to be even better. But Nintendo has yet to give us any of the big features we really want.
Dr. Shrunk and Harriet (I honestly have no idea how or if they can bring anything to New Horizons) Also literally nobody talks about them, but I would like to see Booker and Copper return; I miss lost and found, and them telling me what's going on
Harriet got replaced by a mirror.. I never played any AC games that came before Pocket Camp and New Horizons (since those are the only 2 I have ever access to). But I'd love to go to the salon and get my hair done (and edit my character).
Reese and Cyrus also had a HUGE downgrade. In New Leaf, they ran Re-Tail and you could customize items. However, in New Horizons... they are just used for Wedding Season, which the event itself is boring and repetitive. BUT, the reason could be because of the ability to craft things. They could at least also have a better role in the game.
Rover also had a downgrade because in the older games, he would be the one you first meet. But in New Horizons, he is seen only one time, and that is on May Day. Nintendo could at least try and fix that.
I loved Re-tail as I could sell my unwanted items for more money and I could get the piece of furniture from my villagers house that I couldn't seem to find, I wish it was still in the game.
I feel like Celeste did get a slight upgrade, instead of just being in a museum and doing nothing in New Leaf, now she walks around your island and gives you recipes for astrology inspired furniture. It's not as good as she used to have in games before, but at least it's an upgrade from New Leaf
Villagers convos and personalities have been downgraded Furniture has been downgraded. Thousands less items in this game than others means nearly every dream island I visit is similar Villager houses all contain the same furniture for the most part, and some are almost empty Only 4 fruits in this game Villagers are way less interactive and will spout the same exact lines every single time you speak to them Villagers talking non stop about tourneys, HHA visits, etc. Game is a literal bore for me. Its basically just a villager collector with no substance.
Okay, look. I love Isabelle to pieces. I think she's the most cutest, friendliest, helpful and hardworking character of the Animal Crossing franchise, and honestly, without her, our towns in New Leaf would be a fucking train wreck. But if I could say one thing that's been bothering me about her in New Horizons is saying the same shit over and over again when there is no news during the broadcast. Like, come on. No one cares that you cares that you finished a crossword puzzle, that you found your favorite sock behind your washer, etc. Like, if she was saying those things once and said new things during the broadcast when there isn't any announcements, that would be much better and less annoying. Also, I have Pros and Cons of New Horizons, and one my biggest cons are the villagers lacking personality and repeating the same dialogue everyday. Like, come on, Nintendo! If you had your villagers with great and funny personality in your past AC games, why not put it in this one? Now, I think one reason is why Nintendo did this is probably because they were worried that kids might get upset when their favorite villager gets angry at them and says hurtful things. That I can understand because I would honestly feel the same way. But, why do you have to suck out their entire personalities because of that? But who knows, maybe in future updates they will bring back personalities for the villagers and non-resident animal characters. I still love New Horizons a lot, and I think I got a lot done in it than I have with New Leaf, but I would love it a lot more if they could maybe bring more life and personalities into their characters just like from their past games.
I would be fine with isabelle telling us things we don’t care about if it was like once every few days and if it didn’t repeat. That way I would probably find it much cuter than having to read something over and over every damn day
@@someguy5744 Exactly! If she had new things to say if there weren't any new announcements, I would love to hear them, but not the same god damn things over and over again.
Everybody in new leaf: isabelle! You work too much! Take a rest! Everybody in new horizonts: Isabelle can you do something useful in your life?! Me: this jerks are never happy.
dude if we didn't have to deal with her boring and useless morning announcements I think people would be less annoyed?.. Idk its just irritating that the game takes around two minutes to load due to her "announcement".
@@Grigrithereal i skip too but just imagine if her "announcements" were never there to begin with? what if she just set up your game like she did in new leaf? the loading time would probably be faster than normal which would be glorious.
They did Mr Ressetti so dirty Sure, everybody else was ruined or straight up removed, but Ressetti LOST HIS JOB AND WAS SENTENCED TO A HELICOPTER And to make it worse, nobody ever USES the feature! There’s also Rover, Capn’, Kicks, Lief, Brewster, The Pelicans, Harriet, Dr Shrunk, Lyle, Katrina, Sable, Joan, Phineas, and Even Redd! It’s so disappointing to see these characters lack in personality, appearance, and existence in the game itself. The worst part is that Nintendo doesn’t plan to do anything for these characters either.
I've only used it when my drift was severe, like 6 times. Who the hell thought the rescue service was a good idea, people with short attention spans or users with badly drifting Joy-cons?
When I first got ACNH, my first reaction? “Woah. Is this what I paid for?” The music was changed horribly. I still highly prefer the soothing and relaxing rain ambience for New Leaf. And the Town Hall music for NH? Freaking. Scary. The villagers didn’t have the same spark as last time. It’s like, “Dom. My dude. I love you in all your glory, but I do not give a **** that your sitting down in such a obvious spot.
Gulliver was always such a delight in New Leaf. Something about his questions testing your real-world geography skills was really fun, and he was probably one of my favorite special characters in the game. In New Horizons though... yeah, his minigame is an absolute chore to me. Not even kidding, there are times where I just... left him on the beach without talking to him. Like, all he wants you to do is slowly walk up and down the beach looking for communicator parts, which I personally find pretty boring. And Gullivarr is just... basically that but in the water. Woo.
It’s so sad but this time around all the characters bore me including NPC’s, I try enjoy the dialogue sometimes then it’s so repetitive and i get so bored so i just zoom around avoiding everyone
CRYING I miss new leaf...I am actually going to invest in a new 3ds and a new copy of the game, plus all of the online features are still up and running.
I still have my Nintendo DS and I had animal crossing since 2014 its a really good game I haven't played it since 2015. Reason? I lost the game card. RIP
I love how everyone who played new leaf was like: “omg Isabelle works so hard, she deserves a break 🥺🥺” ACNH: *Isabelle is on vacation Players: “WTF why is she useless now, I hate her 😒”
thing is.. she's not on vacation. She's stuck in one building, all day, behind her desk. She only gets fresh air for fireworks season so far :/ I'd be so so happy if she wandered around sometimes and had a lunch break or something. anything
mr ressetti is like your old man neighbor yeah he is annoying an you may hate it to death because he keep screaming on you but he actually love you and care about you also why is ressetti is so friendly in new leaf
He still yells at you. If you reset or forget to save the game a certain amount of times hes still himself. In new leaf i mean. Though after you make him raise his blood pressure you have to see his brother or cousin Don. Yeah he and Don are nicer as you said. With Sonny (Chubby mole ressetti) hes nicer only if you visit him.
(Continued) Heres what he's said to me the last time I did a reset. "GRAAAH!I SAID "NO RESETTIN'"!WHAT DON'T YOU GET?!THE "NO" OR THE "RESETTIN'" PART?!.....Phew.....Ain't had to yell like that for ages. I'm seeing spots over here.Know what I think? I think ya got a melon made of titanium or something. Answer me this, kid: Is there a reset button in real life?If ya tank a test, can ya hit rewind and take it again?How 'bout if ya oversleep? Can ya rewind time and get your tuchus outta bed? Huh?Course ya can't! Ya know why that is? It's called life! Look, in a game, OK, ya can reset and try the same thing over and over again.But ya know what, ? That time ya spent playin'? It's gone, and ya ain't gettin' it back.If some piddlin' thing don't go your way, who cares? What's the big deal? It's just a game........ Pshhh..."What's up with this mole? How long's he gonna yell at me?" Yeah, that's the face you're makin'. All right. Whatever. Maybe I overdid it a bit. All this yappin's got me real worn out. Bet you're tired of it too, huh? Let's call it a day, all right? But ya gotta promise me! When you're done playin', ya gotta SAVE AND QUIT! OR ELSE! ...We clear? Oh, yeah, one last thing...Ya know how sometimes you get to a point in a conversation where the whole thing's a "mute" point? Well it ain't on mute! The point's "moot"! "MOOT"! Like a cow! Ya can't mute a cow! That's my language tip of the day. Whaddya want? I'm a cultured mole. NOW, SCRAM!"
I think Kicks is downgraded, I mean in city folk i'm pretty sure he was homeless. Then in New leaf he got his own show! Now in new horizons he is a vendor at a booth. Mabel did the same thing early on in the game and I thought that the same would happen to kicks.... but oh was I wrong!
I really miss the variety of shops and businesses, just having the main shop and the clothing shop feels a bit flat when compared to the variety we’ve had in previous versions of the game.
New leaf: Isabelle is super helpful, the best character, and the game would be unplayable without her New horizons: ughhhhhh where are all the USEFUL features? And NO I do NOT care about a new episode of a show you like
Honestly the villagers have the most downgrade. I know they weren’t included but it’s sad on how much the dialogue has change. I love lazies and currently have three but it feels like every time I just get an echo of conversation from them
I feel like Celeste has been on a slow downgrade since Wild World/City Folk, she used to have her own little observatory where you could make constellations and see them in your town's sky as well as being able to see a friend's constellations if you went to their town, then in New Leaf she sold items on the 2nd floor of the museum and helped you build exhibits. Now all she does is walk around during a meteor shower to give you a DIY recipe...
I feel so conflicted about new horizons. I'm happy and I love the graphics, crafting, terraforming and all the customization options But they all but erased the village's personalities and dialogue and I have this feeling that the game's characteristic charm is absent because of it
It would be great if Isabelle told us who the special visitior is on our island during her morning announcement. That way you would know to look out for them 😄
@@gigi_lulz Yeah, but only the big ones, and if there's nothing else going on at the time. I've had so many meteor showers without her announcing them, it was lowkey ridiculous. Still, Celeste seems nowhere to be found on my island. I have so many star shards, but haven't seen her in forever!
But Celeste also gives you trivia about the star fragments when you show them to her. I think that's really cute. You just have to talk to her again after getting the diy.
I don't see the fuss, when I played Wild World I was pretty young and yet I never felt like Resetti was scary or anything, annoying at most for all he said, but I ended up liking to see him sometimes. Brewster *sighs* I miss him, I also wish Celeste could get the observatory back .
I miss brewster and making constellations :( I loved the idea of creating drawings in the sky... And brewster was a nice pigeon and Celeste deserves her observatory back! As a kid I hated Mr resetti, but now I miss him... He was funny and taught me to always save the game hahaha
I feel like kicks has become so EXTREMELY boring. He used to be on of my favorites because of his origins but know there is absolutely Nothing interesting about him. Same with Leif who IS my favorite ac character
At this point I would've wanted to build an observatory, a cafe, re-tail, police station and club lol but I have no space for all of these stores anymore
That's why I think they should give you an option to buy another island for a "city" area- the police station would probably have to be on the main island or on a dock nearby, but many other things would be nice. I have a whole bunch of things I wish for. This game was a huge let down for me in all honesty and it's only about customization, not the life simulator it is. It's like we're on our own on our islands and don't have friends there because they just repeat the same things. I think a few food places would be nice for another island thing, because then our villagers could have favorites and we could possibly go on mini quests to get them some food and either grow closer or apart from them depending on what we got!
I feel like I'm the only one who misses Jack. I loved his role in New leaf and I found it super fun! But I'm scared for the October update I feel as if his character might be ruined...
Well, looks like Isabelle received a huge buff in the 2.0 update. Not only can she do ordinances, but her announcements are no longer bad. Now, if there is no news on holiday events or camps, she will instead tell you which special NPC has arrived on your island. You no longer have to check yourself on who has arrived and no longer have to hear Isabelle talk about her socks for the millionth time. I think it's safe to say she is helpful now.
I'm surprised I never see anyone else mention it but I think Sable got a massive downgrade in personality. Everyone loved Sable in the old games because you had to work hard to get her to come out her shyness and open up to you and when she did, you wanted to keep talking to her because it was interesting hearing about her past and she had lots of interesting stories and these stories could be happy and cute or genuinely sad and heartfelt depending on what mood she was in and gave us such an insight into her character. Now however, as with all the New Horizons characters, she's just happy all the time. She has very few interesting stories and mostly just says the same thing over and over. She no longer has any real character and I only talk to her everyday out of obligation. Truly sad though because she was such a brilliant character before and now she just feels like a robot.
It bothers me that my friends dislike Isabelle because of how annoying she is in NH but never played NL, so they don't know how adorable and sweet she actually is
I think Isabelle should only do the morning announcement IF there’s actually something to announce. So if there wasn’t any news, you’d just immediately start the game without having to hear about her damn personal life
Reece and Cyrus I loved going to re tail in new leaf and I was extremely disappointed when I realised they were only coming back for a wedding even that I only did once or twice
Resetti should've been in charge of construction work like building/demolishing bridges and inclines or moving buildings. You would still talk to Tom Nook to start the projects but he then calls up Resetti to plan out the details. And maybe Resetti shows up the next morning like "Hey, check out the new thing we finished!".
Harvey’s cabin is honestly been a disappointment aside from the wedding part. They need regular photo events there. Isabell I definitely agree with, like please give the girl at least a weather report, as for some of the others I hope the bring them back or give them some new roles as the updates come in
I never really liked Isabelle. She came into the series WELL into the softening of the series. As such, she never did much of anything but be a cinnamon roll. Cinnamon rolls are great, but I just never really got attached to her.
I MISS THE OBSERVATORY so much !!! Honestly was my favourite part of wild world, I feel like she should have a permanent spot in the museum in the observatory where u can get more info about star fragments, create constellations and give u info on upcoming meteor showers (as I always get stressed about missing them!)
Random thought, what if Isabelle had dialogue for the island visitors. At least that would broaden what she says....so, if she doesn't have any news, she could say.... Daisy Mae or Saharah: "I did see a merchant wandering around the island. They might have something interesting to buy." Leif, Kicks or Mabel (initially): "I saw someone in the plaza. It looked like they had a stall there - I wonder what's for sale?" Label: "I saw somebody in the plaza. She was talking about fashion...I'm curious to know what she wants." Gulliver or Gullivarrr: "I heard reports of someone laying on the beach. I hope they're alright. The beach wouldn't be my first choice to take a nap." Redd: "I heard reports that a strange boat is docked at the Northern side of the island. Be careful...it could be a trap." C.J. or Flick: "I saw someone wandering around the island. He seemed to be most fascinated in the local fauna. I don't blame him - the wildlife is spectacular." K.K.: "Is anyone planning on attending K.K. Slider's concert on the plaza tonight? I'm going to see it just as soon as I've finished my shift."
@@Akikai.2 he used to be a monkey at New Leaf's train station but yeah, he's just gone on this game. I read somewhere you can invite some characters like Porter to take pictures but oh well, that's pretty much like being non-existent in the game 😅
Something I want to add about Celeste: You can show her the zodiac fragments and she’ll tell you a simplified version of the greek tales about the constellations. Though, I do wish she had more casual dialogue for after she gives you a DIY. Maybe something about giving her brother a break and taking care of the bug exhibit for the night. Or, maybe she can talk about how she became so fascinated with the stars. Idk, something more than just tutorial text about wishing on stars.
I miss Dr. Shrunk :( I want the developers to somehow add his appearance somewhere. I know that his job was basically taken away by the villagers, but it would still be fun to see him again.
i got over 300 hours of gameplay a few months ago, but my island still feels lonely. it feels bland, colorless, and characterless. it looks fine! but i think you’d need to tilt your head and squint your eyes to make it feel alive
Tbh...every villager got a downgrade. I'm tired of having the same conversation over and over with every villager type. I wish they'd stop adding new villagers and start giving each a district personality and dialogue, like in the gamecube version. (Yes, I am THAT person who can't let the classic go). I just want a villager to be mean to me honestly lmfao

Isabelle could tell us when npcs are in town (Saharah, Redd etc.) but instead she only mentions events and the campsite.
Or be more accurate on the weather reports and shooting stars. Had shooting stars quite abit but she never announced :x
@@OwsiSan she only announces them like once a month. It’s not her role you just have to look out for em
Everyone wants so much lol geez.
@@prttyrose3156 ya i know, but since this video is talking about how to improve Isabelle's role and not make her dialogue too repetitive, this weather/shooting stars comment is more of a suggestion to improve Isabelle's role
my isabelle only talks about her personal life
I feel like rover is the MOST downgraded character in acnh, he went from being the first character you saw in new leaf, to being restricted to 1 DAY IN A WHOLE YEAR!!! He could be in a future cafe update, where he could appear once in a while to give you travel diys or give you a task to do for furniture!
That’s fair. I mostly wanted to stick to characters that you still see often though , since otherwise the list would have a bunch of one-off characters like Rover, Reese, etc.
@@Protendo of course
I miss the train ;;
@@cait456 me too :(
I loved how in City Folk Rover would be the one to greet you and get you into the game(like Isabelle in New Leaf). He’s always been my favorite NPC
Number 6: Brewster :(
Hiii I love your videos
I love Brewster!
I salute you brewster
Brewster was so downgraded that he got wiped from existence.
@@Protendo I like how I'm the first like on this comment, I also like how nobody cares.
There need to be more shops. We should be able to build an Observatory for Celeste and put it somewhere on the island. Same goes for a cafe and other things.
Ikrr I hate having to wait for Kick's, Celeste, AND Leif to come to my island!
they added the art exhibit to the museum as an afterthought so i really don’t see why they wouldn’t be able to include an observatory for celeste somehow
How about a library with the owner being Tortim-
😔✊
I think they should add a city type thing like in City Folk with all the shops just so people who spent a long time on making their islands perfect don't have to completely change the layout to include things like a cafe or observatory.
@@zuckertheoctopus3095 or a single street for special buildings
Honestly I feel like K.K. Slider and mr resetti are the most downgraded ones
KK slider literally does nothing except for awkwardly sits in front of the town hall
And Nintendo basically killed resetti with his “new job”
Definitely
What are you talking about? K.K. Slider is playing songs all day. Makes more sense to be busking than just sitting around waiting for someone to talk to.
What else has ever KK been doing?
Are K.K. Slider Saturdays gone?
@@corrosive_sage4479 no
Overall: ACNH is an amazing game as long as you don't compare it to the previous games
Funny thing is it's not even that great. It gets boring really quickly
@@honeygom4603 maybe if you aren’t patient or maybe if you don’t actually like the game itself and you were only playing it because it was popular
@@Alice-zy6gj um no. I played it because it was another animal crossing game and I'm a huge fan of the series. But the many things it's lacking that were there in other games just doesn't make it good. And I personally don't want to update my game every month or so to get things that should be there from the beginning anyway.
@@honeygom4603 well it would take a lot longer for animal crossing to come out and those little things are something to look forward to
@@Alice-zy6gj I'd rather wait longer and play a full game with everything and new features than get an unfinished game with barely anything in it. Then also wait for updates to get smth that makes the game more exciting for a few days. Seriously.
And the "little things" aren't anything to look forward to since, like I said, they should have been in the game anyway. Yes, the updates have some newER features that haven't been in previous games(such as new furniture or fences) but it's rlly nothing more than having the special holiday occasions back.
I wish Reece and Cyrus weren’t just for the wedding update. I loved their relationship. The only canon couple in the whole franchise.
They're so cute
Kapp'n and Leilani? also Lottie and Digby go on a date once
@Pampered Aliens yeah theres a Pete/Pelly/Phyllis Possibly Brewster love square/triangle
@@mechanicalthephantomonial7757 they are my fAve I really hope they're brought back ;(
While barlod flirting with my villagers (barlod is one of my villagers) boys and girls (ik its not it its just random and not meant) but im proud also he gave me a card that he spilled gravey on a card and sent it to me i feel like a proud ma ma that feeds him day by day till im broke 🌝❤️
I feel like Isabelle has been downgraded in New Horizons because she really took the spotlight in New Leaf and Tom Nook didn’t do as much. So it’s understandable is having her not do as much.
Hopefully in the future, she can mention if a special character is on the island or come out of Residents Services more for future holidays.
Yup. A downgraded Isabelle was a sacrifice I was willing to make for an upgraded Nook. It’s unfortunate, but I’ve learned to accept it.
Also in New Leaf there was a event in February which was Groundhog Day. So maybe Resetti and Don can run this event for like a February update but I’m not sure.
She can be less of importance while not being annoying. You already have to wait forever for the game to boot up and then for the announcements to boot up, only for her to tell useless stuff.
I just find it ironic, because everyone loved Isabelle, the kind hearted workaholic. Everyone thought she deserved her vacation. Now she's got her vacation and she feels like a new character because her personality is flipped once you get past "sweetness".
@@amandaslough125 THIS. She could've taken a back seat gracefully, rather than being front and center, babbling on about her stupid tv shows, or belly button lint, or losing her sock, OR - talking to her mom and dad....which could be a sore spot with those who are separated from their parents or have even lost them during this stupid coronavirus crisis. It's a real thing.
They are both just the same
most downgraded item: Froggy Chair
WHERE IS THE FROGGY CHAIR
💔
😭😭😭
It’s gone
WE NEED THAT IN NEW HORIZONS AND POCKET CAMP. I NEEED TO HAVE A FROGGY CHAIR AT MY CAMPSITE!!!
You should also add all the characters who were literally replaced by furniture items or become temporary visitors.
Cyrus and Reese? Replaced along with their shop 'Re-Tail' by DIY tables. Harriet? Replaced along with her shop 'Shampoodle' by mirrors. The pelicans who ran the post office? Replaced by the small post box inside the airport.
And now, Leif and Kicks don't even have their own shops. And judging by the datamine, Brewster won't be having his cafe either.
Plenty of interesting special characters and buildings missing. It's funny and sad because this game emphasises on terraforming, but lacks furniture variety and special buildings.
This game feels more like an island decorator instead of an island life simulator.
Best comment.
CRAP I DID NOT REALIZE ALL THAT 😭😭😭😭 (I barely got the game I didnt think they weren't going to be in the game)
omg so true
Every one need a to understand to stop comparing them. They r not the same GAME. New leaf was all at once with its game and new horizons has a 3 yr plan...like the idea or not . But they approached this game differently. So u can't compare them until new horizons is complete . It's not currently.
This game is basically Animal crossing happy island designer
This game to me feels like it sacrifices charm for Convenience.
Definitely. In some cases it works, but in others it feels empty.
Yes Acnh isn't for me a real AC 😪
I feel like it does this in everything except the menus like oof they really wanted to make the menus inconvenient af
Apart from crafting stuff one
At
A
Time
Nooooooo
Its also annoying how long the game takes to load. Breath of the Wild loads so damn fast
That's really sad, why is NH so damn slow with its loading times!? I could warm up a microwaveable meal with how long it takes.
I like to think that Isabelle and the rest of the gang has to run from their home and swim across the ocean to reach the island. The image of Isabelle fighting the Kraken makes me more patient
It isn't that slow.
@@Shadamyfan-rs8xc 2 minutes is too long for me 😅
That’s because, there is a set time, let’s say it’s 1 minute. You take 30 seconds to log off, it them will take another 30 seconds to load when you go back on. If you don’t want to wait next time, take longer exiting the game.
Resetti HAS to be the most disappointing! I don’t even get to see my boy😭
( T ʖ̯ T) I miss him...
I know how to hear his theme tho.call the rescue team then you can hear it
I miss him even though I hated him as a kid
@@Kazoo_Itchy SAME
@@LollyCat I got his poster the other day, I can order you one if you want 🥺
I wish Isabelle and the villagers that own stores would walk around the island like when the stores close.
Yes, I'd like to see them outside the shops
Ikr
I prefer the new leaf music
I liked how it changed based on the weather.
Yeah. The NH music is literally *perfect* for the game, but i just don’t like it lol.
I think that you should be able to change what music plays on your island..for example by talking to Isabelle, you could change the Acnh 9pm tune to the 9pm tune from new leaf, or city folk,etc.
I miss the old music SO BAD!! I never got tired of it if they'd at least make more KK covers of some OG music I'd pipe it all around the island!!!!!!!
I kinda wish that there was a mute button for the background music so that you can place radios and such around your island and still hear that but not have the background music interfere. It can be pretty annoying depending what mood you're looking for on your island.
Celeste's biggest downgrade is the size of her head.
Not the head 😭💀
Tbrh Celeste actually looks adorable
Haha
@nyx that’s what I’m sayin tho
LMAO
I’m honestly not a big fan of this game compared to New Leaf. It just feels empty. I know they’ll keep adding updates for holidays and stuff, but if they’re like anything we’ve gotten so far (Bunny Day) I’m not looking forward to it. I’m just not a fan of the updates in general. Most of them have just added stuff that was in previous games. If it’s NEW Horizons then the stuff it should be adding should be NEW.
Sadly I feel the same way. I still play New Horizons but I’m just bummed out that the game feels so empty.
BMoney8600 Yeah, I don’t know if it’s the nostalgia talking, but it just doesn’t feel the same. The bigger focus on customization instead of the life sim aspect kinda kills it for me tbh.
Honestly, seeing how the updates are and how good the fall update looks is giving me hope. I honestly think this is going to be the best Animal Crossing. Getting back into it after a while, I’m really enjoying myself. My villagers seem to have new dialogue as well.
I’m relating to comment and your pfp is just making it better
As a person thet never played the other games and only acnh i agree i still find it fun but i just leave when i got nothing else to do
We need villager upgrade because my villagers sound like broken records rather than real friends who love to talk to you, visit you, send letters to you and have them simply hang out.
Edit: More conversations! More info in the morning announcements like “I bet the meteor shower tonight will look great with friends! I love watching meteor showers with my family and friends!”
I agree with this 100%! The villagers say the same thing over and over. No more charming conversations like Wild World nor New Leaf...im still hoping they improve the conversations but I honestly doubt it. Its fucking Nintendo...
jaimealexlara, yeah. I was surprised that Nintendo was one of those people who make you pay for multiplayer when it should’ve been like Minecraft. Free multiplayer.
Yea it's pretty boring
I feel like villagers don't have much dialogue too.
I Think characters like bluebear and norma are perfect the way they are. Olivia and big top(and Biskit(same personality)) on the other hand...
This entire video speaks deeply to my heart. I love NH. I have played it for a very unhealthy 1000h by now. However, I'm so sad by how so many legacy characters were left by the wayside. There's always hope of their return but the wedding event with Cyrus and Reese barely did them justice. I loved how many non-villager characters New Leaf had and while I don't mind Gulliver and Gullivarrr that much, I'm so sad about Resetti. He is not even visible and can't be called to Harv... whose island I mainly use for planning out rooms. And to throw "Goodbye Parties" for villagers who move out. I'm also really sad about how many characters were lost due to the Dodos and a postcard stand. A lot of quality of life updates sadly came at the cost of beloved characters.
I wouldn't call Isabelle annoying, she's just really really boring
I think she's annoying cause I just want to get playing and not hear her talk about the same stuff over and over
Isabelle is adorable
@@ruby_spectre lol she’s trash
@@catalchemy I wish she had a better role than just announcements
@@catalchemy ew
I honestly think one of the biggest flaws when it comes to New horizons is the lack of personality and dialogue to play 'safe'. too many attention on details, effects and seasons made the other way around when it came to that and it really makes me sad as it gets really boring sometimes
Isabelle: Literally a menu
Wisp: Worthless side quest
Brewster: DEAD
Resetti: Goes against everything he's ever known and just resets your position
Themed, fun furniture: Monthly, not at release
Lloid: Donation box
Regular villagers: Repetitive, rarely ever funny
Digby: Who?
Rover, Re-Tailers, Zipper: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Fanbase: Toxic
KK: Sits in one spot every Sat.
Leif, Kicks: From shops to shacks
Pelicans: O b j e c t s
The entire franchise: Dead as we know it
Me: Sad
I mean, the game isn't bad, but MANY, MANY improvements need to be made.
Y'all should be glad this isn't amiibo Festival 2.
All of this is true it’s not even funny 😂
Honestly why DID they make it Dodo when they could have upcycled Pelly, Phyllis, and Pete to be Pelican Planes/_____ Delivery/Stork Transport etc??? Then we could have Phyllis deliver mail and leak island gossip. You could also have left messages for people who have visited with your Visitor Pass etc with Pelly/Pete...this would have been so cute.
Remember the fortune telling cat?! What did she even do? I never visited her but still hate she's gone... and the gyroids???😭 heartbreaking...
@@LoulouVitt her name is Katrina and we definitely need her and gyroids back. Gyroids is in the data mine so maybe whenever we get Brewster we’ll get gyroids too
@@doodleboi6 some light in the tunnel for my musically inclined, surprise after the rain stump heads... I also miss Booker and Copper 😢 so sad...
i think celeste should visit on the first of every month (meteor shower or not) so you can make new constellations that appear every so often throughout the month! it’d add more diversity to her speech because (possibly) whenever she shows on a meteor night she can chat about the stars and your new constellations!
Honestly, I haven't been able to meet Celeste in over 5 months. She just never shows up anymore 😭
@@D0MiN0ChAn I've never even seen Celste. Didn't even know she existed in New Horizons till I saw this video-
I personally prefer Gulliver & Celeste in this game. I didn't like having to look up the answers for Gulliver in New Leaf (yes, I am that uncultured), and this is the first game where I actually give a crap about Celeste at all because I want those DIYs. I also enjoy that she tells about the Zodiac signs if you bring her the items/fragments relating to them; much, MUCH more interesting than standing around the museum.
I feel Leif has been done dirty. He used to have his own shop and now he's a random visitor, whaaaat? I kinda feel similar about Label, too. But Isabelle and Resetti do have to be the most painful downgrades. Listening to Isabelle add insult to the no-announcements injury every day with her repetitive dialog is really making me dislike her...I don't wanna dislike her.
@@presto_pesto Well, I mean some characters are a different gender in Japan, so I don't think it's that weird to get confused. But I'm certain Leif is male in America...
Honestly her useless morning dialogue has made me hate her, and this is my first experience with her since I never got to play new leaf.
@@Kazoo_Itchy if you want a good example of why people fell for her as a character, look up the fan song "turning over a new leaf". That aspect of someone making the town function whenever you're gone, along with cute moments used to show game progress (like seeing her fall asleep unlocked the option to build the dream suite), really cemented her as an endearing character.
@@amandaslough125 that’s what I’ve heard about her, but now all of that is pretty much gone, and it’s so disheartening
I'm just happy we still have Isabelle. New horizons might be the worst game in the series!
I honestly forget that you don’t even have 10k subscribers yet. This is such high quality content in my personal opinion. Keep it up man.
@ByddBoi I know!
Some characters I think were downgraded are
Wisp
He used to have such a fun role taking the form of other characters and being able to bring villagers into your town, now he’s just an annoying side quest
Lloid
Since tortimer island was removed Lloid only has one role which is unfortunately his least interesting role, being a donations box
However I do actually really like Harv’s Island more than most people, the wedding event is one of my favourites, it’s a great way to create fun screenshots, especially when you bring villagers and NPCs into it, and you can get them to do exactly what you want so you don’t have to worry about them walking away like you would when taking photos on your island, but mainly a lot of people have created animal crossing mini movies with harvs island which are very entertaining and cool to watch, so overall I definately think it’s a good feature
i love harvs studio! could spend hours there hahha
I think wisp was downgraded on new leaf for being just an amiibo thing, that quest to catch his spirits is something he also did on the gamechbe ac
same about the Harv's island
I don't use Harv's island much but it's a fun feature. I honestly would have preferred Harv's island being done by a different NPC and keep Harv with the RVs. Why?
I was really hopping he'd come back with the RVs and we could rent one. And also be able to see Random NPCs in his campsite
Isabelle hasn't been the same since she started hitting the Vacation Juice hard. Guess the stress from New Leaf got to her lol
I think the most disappointing one not on this list is Reese and Cyrus. I mean I did enjoy the wedding event in June. I thought it was cute how you took wedding photos of them for their anniversary, and I loved the wedding items you got from Cyrus in exchange for the heart crystals that Reese rewarded you with for taking the photos, but I would have rather had Re-Tail back. It felt more convenient having two stores to sell things at, plus if you were still playing the game at 10 PM after Nook's Cranny was closed, Re-Tail was still open for that hour. I liked being able to sell items there and see villagers buy them. It was also convenient having Cyrus re-paint various furniture items (which you can't even do with the customization kits for most of them) and make clam shell music boxes (something I'm surprised hasn't been brought back as a DIY recipe since with the giant clams and K.K. Slider albums, the materials are there and all that's missing is the DIY recipe.)
Its sad to see some absolutely beloved characters lose their worth, I hope Nintendo can pull it back in the next year or so. New horizons has so much potential to be even better. But Nintendo has yet to give us any of the big features we really want.
i haven’t played in a few months, because the only update i need is some quality of life updates
Dr. Shrunk and Harriet (I honestly have no idea how or if they can bring anything to New Horizons)
Also literally nobody talks about them, but I would like to see Booker and Copper return; I miss lost and found, and them telling me what's going on
This hurts my heart I miss those puppers 😢
Yeah Dr. Shrunk has been replaced by VILLAGER INTERACTONS
i miss them too but acab
Harriet got replaced by a mirror.. I never played any AC games that came before Pocket Camp and New Horizons (since those are the only 2 I have ever access to). But I'd love to go to the salon and get my hair done (and edit my character).
They could add booker and copper and when you find a lost item you could give it to them. and theres probably more things they could be used for
Reese and Cyrus also had a HUGE downgrade. In New Leaf, they ran Re-Tail and you could customize items. However, in New Horizons... they are just used for Wedding Season, which the event itself is boring and repetitive.
BUT, the reason could be because of the ability to craft things. They could at least also have a better role in the game.
Rover also had a downgrade because in the older games, he would be the one you first meet. But in New Horizons, he is seen only one time, and that is on May Day.
Nintendo could at least try and fix that.
I was about to say the same thing. I loved Re-Tail in New Leaf, and it’s so sad not to have it in this version 😔
I loved Re-tail as I could sell my unwanted items for more money and I could get the piece of furniture from my villagers house that I couldn't seem to find, I wish it was still in the game.
Yes the wedding thing was SO boring, I only occasionally went there for the limited time items.
I hope they get introduced and we can give cyrus furniture to customize so we can get all the colors of certain furniture 😭
I feel like Celeste did get a slight upgrade, instead of just being in a museum and doing nothing in New Leaf, now she walks around your island and gives you recipes for astrology inspired furniture. It's not as good as she used to have in games before, but at least it's an upgrade from New Leaf
Villagers convos and personalities have been downgraded
Furniture has been downgraded. Thousands less items in this game than others means nearly every dream island I visit is similar
Villager houses all contain the same furniture for the most part, and some are almost empty
Only 4 fruits in this game
Villagers are way less interactive and will spout the same exact lines every single time you speak to them
Villagers talking non stop about tourneys, HHA visits, etc.
Game is a literal bore for me. Its basically just a villager collector with no substance.
There do 6 fruits tho including coconuts. Tbh i don't mind since we have more flower options
Exactly and flowers are so annoying
IM SO TIERD OF GOING THROUGH ISABELLE'S ANOUCMENTS
Me too. I can't stand her.
I don’t play the game cuz I don’t have the ds
But do you need to talk to her everyday?
@@LavroseRovender No but she always does the announcements automatically when you start the game. It's that way for NH on the switch.
Ikr I need the option to skip though the announcements instead of pressing A to go though them 😫
@@bfig2159 like splatoon
Okay, look. I love Isabelle to pieces. I think she's the most cutest, friendliest, helpful and hardworking character of the Animal Crossing franchise, and honestly, without her, our towns in New Leaf would be a fucking train wreck. But if I could say one thing that's been bothering me about her in New Horizons is saying the same shit over and over again when there is no news during the broadcast. Like, come on. No one cares that you cares that you finished a crossword puzzle, that you found your favorite sock behind your washer, etc. Like, if she was saying those things once and said new things during the broadcast when there isn't any announcements, that would be much better and less annoying.
Also, I have Pros and Cons of New Horizons, and one my biggest cons are the villagers lacking personality and repeating the same dialogue everyday. Like, come on, Nintendo! If you had your villagers with great and funny personality in your past AC games, why not put it in this one? Now, I think one reason is why Nintendo did this is probably because they were worried that kids might get upset when their favorite villager gets angry at them and says hurtful things. That I can understand because I would honestly feel the same way. But, why do you have to suck out their entire personalities because of that? But who knows, maybe in future updates they will bring back personalities for the villagers and non-resident animal characters.
I still love New Horizons a lot, and I think I got a lot done in it than I have with New Leaf, but I would love it a lot more if they could maybe bring more life and personalities into their characters just like from their past games.
I would be fine with isabelle telling us things we don’t care about if it was like once every few days and if it didn’t repeat. That way I would probably find it much cuter than having to read something over and over every damn day
@@someguy5744 Exactly! If she had new things to say if there weren't any new announcements, I would love to hear them, but not the same god damn things over and over again.
Exactly this
I wish there would be an update, that gives you a Villager rudeness option, it'd make NH interesting.
@@AmyTheBrawler YES! that way if younger kids are playing it they can have it off, but when older kids who understand its a game can have flavor!

@@de7tiny yea
They did Mr Ressetti so dirty
Sure, everybody else was ruined or straight up removed, but Ressetti LOST HIS JOB AND WAS SENTENCED TO A HELICOPTER
And to make it worse, nobody ever USES the feature!
There’s also Rover, Capn’, Kicks, Lief, Brewster, The Pelicans, Harriet, Dr Shrunk, Lyle, Katrina, Sable, Joan, Phineas, and Even Redd! It’s so disappointing to see these characters lack in personality, appearance, and existence in the game itself. The worst part is that Nintendo doesn’t plan to do anything for these characters either.
I’ve only ever used the damn feature once in my 300 hours of play time when I got stuck while terraforming. Smh.
I've only used it when my drift was severe, like 6 times. Who the hell thought the rescue service was a good idea, people with short attention spans or users with badly drifting Joy-cons?
Agreed!
When I first got ACNH, my first reaction?
“Woah. Is this what I paid for?”
The music was changed horribly. I still highly prefer the soothing and relaxing rain ambience for New Leaf. And the Town Hall music for NH? Freaking. Scary. The villagers didn’t have the same spark as last time. It’s like, “Dom. My dude. I love you in all your glory, but I do not give a **** that your sitting down in such a obvious spot.
i desperately wish that dr shrunk was in ACNH, his jokes genuinely made me laugh sometimes in past games.
Gulliver was always such a delight in New Leaf. Something about his questions testing your real-world geography skills was really fun, and he was probably one of my favorite special characters in the game.
In New Horizons though... yeah, his minigame is an absolute chore to me. Not even kidding, there are times where I just... left him on the beach without talking to him. Like, all he wants you to do is slowly walk up and down the beach looking for communicator parts, which I personally find pretty boring.
And Gullivarr is just... basically that but in the water. Woo.
yay....
I didn’t even know resetti was in the game until this video and I bought the game at LAUNCH he’s absolutely useless now
Celeste is cute. I want to like her but Nintendo keeps sticking her with jobs that don't require much personality. :(
i'm guessing/hoping resetti will have an actual appearance in february for groundhog's day, like he did on the gamecube!
And if Brewster ever returns then Resetti might be able to show up at the cafe like new leaf and city folk
You probably know this already,but a dancing peacock has taken over Groundhog Day.
It’s now a festival for catching feathers
It’s so sad but this time around all the characters bore me including NPC’s, I try enjoy the dialogue sometimes then it’s so repetitive and i get so bored so i just zoom around avoiding everyone

I still have my Nintendo DS and I had animal crossing since 2014 its a really good game I haven't played it since 2015. Reason? I lost the game card. RIP
I love how everyone who played new leaf was like: “omg Isabelle works so hard, she deserves a break 🥺🥺”
ACNH: *Isabelle is on vacation
Players: “WTF why is she useless now, I hate her 😒”
Nobody's ever pleased these days, huh?
@@D0MiN0ChAn And people thought animal crossing players were innocent
thing is.. she's not on vacation. She's stuck in one building, all day, behind her desk. She only gets fresh air for fireworks season so far :/ I'd be so so happy if she wandered around sometimes and had a lunch break or something. anything
I miss shop upgrades :(
mr ressetti is like your old man neighbor yeah he is annoying an you may hate it to death because he keep screaming on you but he actually love you and care about you
also why is ressetti is so friendly in new leaf
He still yells at you. If you reset or forget to save the game a certain amount of times hes still himself. In new leaf i mean. Though after you make him raise his blood pressure you have to see his brother or cousin Don. Yeah he and Don are nicer as you said. With Sonny (Chubby mole ressetti) hes nicer only if you visit him.
(Continued) Heres what he's said to me the last time I did a reset. "GRAAAH!I SAID "NO RESETTIN'"!WHAT DON'T YOU GET?!THE "NO" OR THE "RESETTIN'" PART?!.....Phew.....Ain't had to yell like that for ages. I'm seeing spots over here.Know what I think?

Can ya rewind time and get your tuchus outta bed? Huh?Course ya can't! Ya know why that is? It's called life!

Let's call it a day, all right? But ya gotta promise me! When you're done playin', ya gotta SAVE AND QUIT! OR ELSE! ...We clear? Oh, yeah, one last thing...Ya know how sometimes you get to a point in a conversation where the whole thing's a "mute" point? Well it ain't on mute! The point's "moot"! "MOOT"! Like a cow! Ya can't mute a cow! That's my language tip of the day. Whaddya want? I'm a cultured mole. NOW, SCRAM!"
In Wild World I cried because of him (I was 6 don’t judge me...AND IT WAS MY BIRTHDAY XD)...But I still mis him :(
I think Kicks is downgraded, I mean in city folk i'm pretty sure he was homeless. Then in New leaf he got his own show! Now in new horizons he is a vendor at a booth. Mabel did the same thing early on in the game and I thought that the same would happen to kicks.... but oh was I wrong!
I really miss the variety of shops and businesses, just having the main shop and the clothing shop feels a bit flat when compared to the variety we’ve had in previous versions of the game.
I love the idea of Gulliver doing the trivia. Great idea, wish they kept it.
New leaf: Isabelle is super helpful, the best character, and the game would be unplayable without her
New horizons: ughhhhhh where are all the USEFUL features? And NO I do NOT care about a new episode of a show you like
Honestly the villagers have the most downgrade. I know they weren’t included but it’s sad on how much the dialogue has change. I love lazies and currently have three but it feels like every time I just get an echo of conversation from them
I feel like Celeste has been on a slow downgrade since Wild World/City Folk, she used to have her own little observatory where you could make constellations and see them in your town's sky as well as being able to see a friend's constellations if you went to their town, then in New Leaf she sold items on the 2nd floor of the museum and helped you build exhibits. Now all she does is walk around during a meteor shower to give you a DIY recipe...
I feel so conflicted about new horizons. I'm happy and I love the graphics, crafting, terraforming and all the customization options
But they all but erased the village's personalities and dialogue and I have this feeling that the game's characteristic charm is absent because of it
It would be great if Isabelle told us who the special visitior is on our island during her morning announcement. That way you would know to look out for them 😄
I wish isabelle could tell you the weather, when the next meteor shower is, and when K.K. Slider would visit when there’s an event on Saturday.
I’m pretty sure she already announces the Saturday events
She announces the meteor showers tho
@@gigi_lulz Yeah, but only the big ones, and if there's nothing else going on at the time. I've had so many meteor showers without her announcing them, it was lowkey ridiculous. Still, Celeste seems nowhere to be found on my island. I have so many star shards, but haven't seen her in forever!
@@D0MiN0ChAn shooting stars are so scarse in light showers that it would be pointless to announce them. Just learn your weather seed.
She does announce when K.K. comes, u just probably keep forgetting
But Celeste also gives you trivia about the star fragments when you show them to her. I think that's really cute. You just have to talk to her again after getting the diy.
I don't see the fuss, when I played Wild World I was pretty young and yet I never felt like Resetti was scary or anything, annoying at most for all he said, but I ended up liking to see him sometimes. Brewster *sighs* I miss him, I also wish Celeste could get the observatory back .
I miss brewster and making constellations :( I loved the idea of creating drawings in the sky... And brewster was a nice pigeon and Celeste deserves her observatory back!
As a kid I hated Mr resetti, but now I miss him... He was funny and taught me to always save the game hahaha
without watching I can confirm that mr ressetti is in the list and he will be number 1
I feel like kicks has become so EXTREMELY boring. He used to be on of my favorites because of his origins but know there is absolutely Nothing interesting about him. Same with Leif who IS my favorite ac character
At this point I would've wanted to build an observatory, a cafe, re-tail, police station and club lol but I have no space for all of these stores anymore
That's why I think they should give you an option to buy another island for a "city" area- the police station would probably have to be on the main island or on a dock nearby, but many other things would be nice. I have a whole bunch of things I wish for. This game was a huge let down for me in all honesty and it's only about customization, not the life simulator it is. It's like we're on our own on our islands and don't have friends there because they just repeat the same things. I think a few food places would be nice for another island thing, because then our villagers could have favorites and we could possibly go on mini quests to get them some food and either grow closer or apart from them depending on what we got!
I remember playing City Folk and I didnt save in purpose so I could see him scream a new line everyday, until Don said he had an attack or something
I like isabelle. She's kinda helpfull except for the repeated announcements :/
“Celeste only gives DIY”
You’ve never seen her given the role of “regularly roasting Greek God Zeus” huh
When you said resetti I said to myself
"Uhm he isn't even in the game yet" and then remembered he's rescue service. That's how bad his role is😭
I feel like I'm the only one who misses Jack. I loved his role in New leaf and I found it super fun! But I'm scared for the October update I feel as if his character might be ruined...
He's the same in nh give candy and lollipops he will give you furniture
yep!
An island nobody ever visits
Nikachu: I BEG TO DIFFER
I visit Harv's Island on the daily- I have my dream house there
I am glad I am not the only one who misses Resetti ;-;
I think having a guaranteed npc every day of the week ultimately hurts every one of them :( I really only look out for redd now
Each character is bland. It’s just a happy smiling face. No personality like being mean, cocky, or even a jokester.
If I would have a happy face, or a blank canvas, I will choose the canvas, because at least any face can be painted here.
Well, looks like Isabelle received a huge buff in the 2.0 update. Not only can she do ordinances, but her announcements are no longer bad. Now, if there is no news on holiday events or camps, she will instead tell you which special NPC has arrived on your island. You no longer have to check yourself on who has arrived and no longer have to hear Isabelle talk about her socks for the millionth time. I think it's safe to say she is helpful now.
I feel sad about not seeing Rover so much, he os my fav cat
The fact after 2.0 Harvey’s upgrade is 10x better lol
I'm surprised I never see anyone else mention it but I think Sable got a massive downgrade in personality.
Everyone loved Sable in the old games because you had to work hard to get her to come out her shyness and open up to you and when she did, you wanted to keep talking to her because it was interesting hearing about her past and she had lots of interesting stories and these stories could be happy and cute or genuinely sad and heartfelt depending on what mood she was in and gave us such an insight into her character.
Now however, as with all the New Horizons characters, she's just happy all the time. She has very few interesting stories and mostly just says the same thing over and over. She no longer has any real character and I only talk to her everyday out of obligation. Truly sad though because she was such a brilliant character before and now she just feels like a robot.
It bothers me that my friends dislike Isabelle because of how annoying she is in NH but never played NL, so they don't know how adorable and sweet she actually is
nobody, absolutely nobody, Isabelle: I JUST GOT MY FAVORITE MAGAZINE TODAY.
Love your content
YOOOO
Jack o' Lantern hello, jack
YOOO-ER
Bediebys Star Yoooooooooo
Me, a person who only knew about animal crossing when I watched a video about it:
Who are these new faces
I think Isabelle should only do the morning announcement IF there’s actually something to announce. So if there wasn’t any news, you’d just immediately start the game without having to hear about her damn personal life
Reece and Cyrus I loved going to re tail in new leaf and I was extremely disappointed when I realised they were only coming back for a wedding even that I only did once or twice
Resetti should've been in charge of construction work like building/demolishing bridges and inclines or moving buildings.
You would still talk to Tom Nook to start the projects but he then calls up Resetti to plan out the details.
And maybe Resetti shows up the next morning like "Hey, check out the new thing we finished!".
Ok I always want a campsite villigar..
Isabelle: I fOuNd My LoSt SoCk
Harvey’s cabin is honestly been a disappointment aside from the wedding part. They need regular photo events there. Isabell I definitely agree with, like please give the girl at least a weather report, as for some of the others I hope the bring them back or give them some new roles as the updates come in
I never really liked Isabelle. She came into the series WELL into the softening of the series. As such, she never did much of anything but be a cinnamon roll. Cinnamon rolls are great, but I just never really got attached to her.
I MISS THE OBSERVATORY so much !!! Honestly was my favourite part of wild world, I feel like she should have a permanent spot in the museum in the observatory where u can get more info about star fragments, create constellations and give u info on upcoming meteor showers (as I always get stressed about missing them!)
7 years and isabellle still hasn’t quit her job of being my secretary
1:20 -- AC: The Thousand-Year Door (and yes, I'm saying this because Gulliver referenced Admiral Bobbery and Rogueport from PM: TTYD.)
A moment of silence for Brutus, the character no one talks about anymore....
He didnt even exist lol
Random thought, what if Isabelle had dialogue for the island visitors. At least that would broaden what she says....so, if she doesn't have any news, she could say....
Daisy Mae or Saharah: "I did see a merchant wandering around the island. They might have something interesting to buy."
Leif, Kicks or Mabel (initially): "I saw someone in the plaza. It looked like they had a stall there - I wonder what's for sale?"
Label: "I saw somebody in the plaza. She was talking about fashion...I'm curious to know what she wants."
Gulliver or Gullivarrr: "I heard reports of someone laying on the beach. I hope they're alright. The beach wouldn't be my first choice to take a nap."
Redd: "I heard reports that a strange boat is docked at the Northern side of the island. Be careful...it could be a trap."
C.J. or Flick: "I saw someone wandering around the island. He seemed to be most fascinated in the local fauna. I don't blame him - the wildlife is spectacular."
K.K.: "Is anyone planning on attending K.K. Slider's concert on the plaza tonight? I'm going to see it just as soon as I've finished my shift."
Number 6: Porter he has been completely removed
Who's that(I've never played any other animal crossing games other than new horizons sorry)?
@@Akikai.2 he used to be a monkey at New Leaf's train station but yeah, he's just gone on this game. I read somewhere you can invite some characters like Porter to take pictures but oh well, that's pretty much like being non-existent in the game 😅
@@kevincoem oof
Something I want to add about Celeste: You can show her the zodiac fragments and she’ll tell you a simplified version of the greek tales about the constellations. Though, I do wish she had more casual dialogue for after she gives you a DIY. Maybe something about giving her brother a break and taking care of the bug exhibit for the night. Or, maybe she can talk about how she became so fascinated with the stars. Idk, something more than just tutorial text about wishing on stars.
I wish villagers had more of a personality. I love the idea of them being mean for some reason. Lmao
I miss Dr. Shrunk :(
I want the developers to somehow add his appearance somewhere. I know that his job was basically taken away by the villagers, but it would still be fun to see him again.
me watching this to make me feel better about not being able to buy new horizons
i got over 300 hours of gameplay a few months ago, but my island still feels lonely. it feels bland, colorless, and characterless. it looks fine! but i think you’d need to tilt your head and squint your eyes to make it feel alive
