      @alixxxia 4 года назад +10

      Th1boi Trump Th1boi Trump hello! so in no way do you need to play on a daily basis. the beginning is kind of slow but that doesn’t mean anything! always open if you have anymore questions i know how hard it is deciding. heck, i don’t play it daily sometimes and i’m still obsessed and an o.g player. you don’t get punished but if it’s a week the villagers might miss you and if you’re into making profit with turnips they’ll spoil if you miss a week (i think) but (i know) that they definitely will if you time travel backwards so be careful with that. there might be more weeds but that’s not bad and villagers might miss you, but it sounds like a lot but it really isn’t. worse thing i would say is turnips but you won’t even be missing a full week so once or twice is perfect! this week i only played like three times and still have bad so much fun, i just realized i read your comment wrong but yeah no consequences in any way besides a couple weeds growing. i hope you enjoy it! and if your gut is telling you no then don’t go for it! but you
      will enjoy it i assure you even if you only play once or twice a week. it’s a shame how expensive the game is

Not to mention the horible dicision to make holidays "Free DLC" instead of having them in the game to begin with like they always were. Plus there are plenty of new features I would have liked to see.... like the ability to actually build up your home, instead of it being the same four rooms, a 2nd floor and a basement like it's always been.

    As much as I like the heavy emphasis lately on the decorating/customizing side of the series, what I really want to see more is the player interactions with the villagers. I wanna hear what they have to say.(also would love to see NEW villagers) I think I'm not alone when I say that the villagers are the stars of the series, so seeing what interesting conservations you engage in with them or the varied kinds of personalities that they radiate is what really makes the world come to life(though i will say, from the footage ive seen, the little actions they do in town like cleaning and eating is very cute and adds a bit of depth to the world)I want to see how "real" these characters truly seem, rather than just coming off as empty shells spouting robotic NPC jargon. It is possible, as I felt that the og game and Wild World had some clever dialogue. New Leaf was, well, dissapointing in that respect(IMO) Idk, i just felt that the interactions with the villagers/special characters felt bland and unimportant, as they repeat the same dialogue and a lot of the writing felt very dumbed down and safe. Hopefully this gets fixed with New Horizons. If not, then I guess...oh well.

    It’s the smallest details that makes me oh so excited about this game. I’m glad that they listened to players and added some features we’ve been wanting!!
    This game has been receiving super high ratings from reviewers so Nintendo definitely did something right. March 20th can’t come any sooner!!

      It's too bad gryoids, paintings, bushes, the cafe, and so many other things are gone according to datamining. But that's just nintendo.... One step forward, twelve steps back x-x

    Great review thank you for talking about the character creator, something that I value that gets overlooked in many reviews.

    I've never played animal crossing in my life, but I can't even express how excited I am for this game. Watching the trailers just gives me a weird sense of nostalgia and the community for the series seems great. Can't wait for the 20th!

    Ok but you talk about this game so nicely. If I haven’t already bought it I would’ve bought it after watching this video. You make it seem so cozy and makes me even more excited. I’ve never played animal crossing but I’m ready to grind >:)
