    i 100% relate to new horizons' music just inducing exhaustion. like after the initial excitement of a new animal crossing game wore off, playing acnh every day started to feel like a chore, and the music REALLY boosts that feeling up to 11 somehow lol. i wish they had added an option in resident services that let you switch to the hourly soundtracks of previous games. even if all the new music was perfect, i still think that'd be a really cool feature.

    Wild World was my first and only AC game gifted me, and it's so special to me even if it gets boring. The music any time of day is god-tier and the characters still had their own fun personalities. I always envied the City Folk game tho bc Wild World does feel like that small town that gets boring after exploring everything. Even so, it still has that comforting quality (snowmen, travelers, balloon packages, funny letters from mom & dad, KK playing at the Roost) that makes AC so special. ♡

    The only thing that bothers me in ACNL is the grueling task on having to donate to add stuff like benches. It just took too long and I'm always almost out of bells once the project is over.
    I dont mind having to do it to add stuff to main street or add the cafe, it's just the minor stuff which just makes me wish adding furniture outside was added sooner

    Acnh is the type of relationship where it has so many flaws but you still love them. I got 1k hours. I’ve done a lot played a lot of multi player,practically know every secret,etc. but what is so painful about acnh is it’s extreme potential that never got there. Like all the updates were amazing!….for a day or so. The lack of many charaters,the lack of things to do after 300 hours. “Well why don’t you redo your island!” Listen bud,terraforming and transerifng this little area on my map could take up to 4 hours. This Could’ve been the Minecraft of animal crossing games. We could’ve gotten caves,we could’ve gotten a city to build up! But naw. I wish we could’ve gotten a online multiplayer trading hub or a place to build your own market place,make restaurants and work! Acnh had the amazing potential to be one of the best MMO’s,but naw within two years it was shut down

    As someone who’s played these games since WW launched, NH also really altered some elements of fandom for the worst - all of a sudden it was all about ‘rare villagers’ and Nookazon rather than sharing personal experiences and stories, it just felt like the warmth was sapped out (and not just because the number of fans grew to 100x more than ever before)

    ACNH is a beautiful game graphically but it misses so much content and features. For previous games, I liked the events such as flea-market day and acorn day.
    Why can’t I multi-craft in NH? Why is Nooks shop only upgraded twice 😭 (this one hurts me so bad bc I always loved the challenge of getting Gracie’s shop). Why are Leaf, Redd, Tortimer, and everyone else only reduced to getting a van on a separate island instead of your main island? This hourly music is the worst out of all the AC games. I could seriously go on and on 😭

    Great points in this video. I've been thinking about the series a lot lately since I'm planning on reviewing it in-depth. You can use a Wii remote and nunchuck for City Folk, but the game's controls are still not good. The biggest issue to me is that there's no designated run button unlike the other Animal Crossing games. The B button is used for both running and picking items up off of the ground, which means if you have a custom design path and go to run on the path you'll pick up a custom design from the ground every time you're in range. It's also annoying with flowers. I like Wild World more than City Folk since the dialogue is so great even though the game has more technical limitations. Most of the points in this video I've thought about before and agree with, but I totally forgot about the trees issue in the original Animal Crossing. To stop myself from writing more paragraphs, I wrote down the list of what I'd consider to be the worst parts of each mainline Animal Crossing game.
    GameCube: Only 3 items per storage furniture item (bad item storage), camera shift between acres, no character customization, some dialogue can be a bit too mean but I still think it's great
    Wild World: Dirt and grass mottled throughout the map looks ugly, lack of real holidays, and you need someone else to visit your town in order to unlock Shampoodle which is bad since online services have been discontinued and it'd be difficult to find someone to visit your town anyways
    City Folk: Villager dialogue loops, can't get photos or anything exclusively from villagers, controls aren't that good, not a very innovative game, Animal Tracks were too easy to make
    New Leaf: Difficult to place Public Works Projects, issues with villager plots (got better after the Welcome Amiibo update), April Fool's Day holiday made villager photos feel less valuable
    New Horizons: Lack of late-game content, difficulty, and progression over time aside from decorating your island; Golden tool durability barely better than standard tools which makes them not worth crafting or using, no way of seeing tool durability, still lacked content after the final 2.0 update, villager dialogue is overly polite for every personality type no matter the friendship level and has issues with being repetitive

    I can never see anyone talk bad about new leaf. For me, its the fact the animals leaving without you knowing. I lost so many villagers. I had to fix it with amibo cards. I also lost perfect pears because Butch decided to land on them. Thats why i like new horizons better.

  • @cyberpigeonovo
    @cyberpigeonovo 10 месяцев назад +4

    My personal beef with the new horizons online features is Nintendo greed with it being locked behind a paywall
    like one of the reasons I loved new leaf so much was because it felt like such a community game, if you were new to the game other players could help you out and give you things for the small price of your freind code on your ds
    And getting custom codes for clothes and paths was only a QR code away, it was wonderful it felt like such a community
    where as now it the only way you can get a "good" island is to have Nintendo online so you have access to the codes and other peoples islands because the only other option is to ge SUPER good and making codes and time skipping a bunch to get one furniture item you need.
    It not online relayed but
    I also HATE with a burning passion the fact they added a crafting mechanic BUT THEY DONT HAVE BULT CRAFTING.
    THE HOURS I HAVE SPENT CRAFTING FISHBAIT I WILL NEVER GET BACK!!

      - THE WII U YOU GET FOR PLAY COINS HAS A MINIGAME???
      - speaking of play coins, I love the nintendo extras you get for buying fortune cookies, really wish they were in NH
      - cuatomizing furniture depends on finding different ore and there’s so many cool ones (I haven’t woken reese up yet tho)
      - minigames on the extra island
      - more buildings, which is something I always wished NH had

    I started back playing animal crossing new leaf when I had finally got one of my favorite villagers in my town, and it's super cool, but I do have some annoyances. Like while I haven't reached the bell requirement for the last shop upgrade I still haven't gotten Gracie to come to my town for the fashion check, which sucks.
    Other complaints:
    -weird one but many times when I was younger I would get to Toy day but because of the outfit requirement and the shoes from kicks I would never really get to do the special event that day even if I got all the other items, wish it wasn't so strict
    -Villager plots, this was very much improved in NH, and while I like the randomness of NL it isn't great
    -Villager dialogue, it's not as bad as NH (which is BAD) but still i just got another normal villager move in today, so now I have 3, including my favorite, Lolly, so I'm going to be getting the same dialouge and interactions across all of them
    -Campsite mechanics, another improvement in NH, I'm scared to try it in NL because when I had got a villager to move in just for funsies it took Oliva out and I had really liked her💔💔And now I don't wanna risk losing Lolly because I've reset for so long to get her
    This makes it seem like I have so many problems with the game but nah I've played since it came out and I still think it's great, I've just had a falling out with the animal crossing model/gameplay loop over the years. I agree with the music point for NH tho, it's not bad, just a downgrade from NL for me, each hour is not distinct enough musically to really represent the hour well tbh.

New Leaf will always be the best among these three, colours are just so bright, you can feel the different parts of the day, there are lots of customisation options (in the correct quantity) and... I just feel at home in that game. Then I bought Let's Go to the City because I wanted to build a bigger town on 25 acres on two levels and I liked it, I love seeing my town on the big screen even if controls are frustrating sometimes. Then some months ago I wanted to try Wild World mainly because of the dialogues of the animals 😂 All of these three games are masterpieces... But... Nothing will beat 5 pm musuc on New Leaf. Nothing.

    New Leaf was my favourite as well! While the DS was my first console, the 3DS was the first I got animal crossing on. It was perfect! Tangy the orange cat was definitely my favourite villager in my town. I loved going to the islands, and I loved all the decorations. I wanted my tree to be the biggest, and I wanted all the decorations to the point I was running out of room. I spent almost every hour of my summers playing that game.

    City Folk was my first animal crossing game and I loved playing everyday after school. There was a hack you could do where you didn't really have to point and click. If you had the nunchuck you can move around with ease and you barley had to use the censor bar so you can just turn that off. But New Leaf is and always will be my favorite

    I played AC on Gamecube way back when it came out, and it's the only animal crossing game I've paid my debt off in. Me and my friend played it for hooouuuurs taking turns going to the island to farm coelacanth late at night. Loved the game, especially the music.
    I have tried every other AC game, and have always come away from them disappointed. They just don't feel like they hit right. There's always something that bothered me about the others, plus the music never even comes close to original AC imo.
    Good video!

    The 2.0 update made new horizons more bearable but I cannot understand why it has no club tortimer-like feature - that would’ve been a huge selling point for nintendo switch online. Sadly the updates came out as players were already burning out. I loved feeling like I could escape into another world in the older games but new horizons feels like a blank canvas. While the customization is fun, it’s also overwhelming.. I don’t want to decorate a town with furniture and cute animals, I want to move into a town, pay my debt, and form relationships with my villagers

    1:30 I realize now that a lot of games of that era "don't respect your time".
    I think a lot of modern games are afraid of being too obtuse or 'long-term'. (That's not a real word, it just means the opposite of instant --gratification-- satisfaction). But sometimes you get 'lost' and that's okay.
    Ocarina of Time, for example, will leave you not knowing how to 'progress' the main story, but that can work in its favor because the side quests and world exploration are equally as compelling. Chulip on the PS2, on the other hand, can be fairly called BAD for a whole host of bad design decisions, but it still has a niche following of people who are willing to look past all that. Because it's about making bonds with the townspeople (the closest game I could think of is Persona? but I haven't played that) & it scratches the same worldbuilding/immersion itch that Ocarina of Time does.
    I think that's why I like only _some_ ""lifestyle"" games, ones where you roleplay as a character w/in the world. Not that sims crap.

  • @nickk3077

    GCN Animal Crossing is goated, but Mew Leaf is my favorite. I just wish there was a “blend” game that takes the best elements from both New Leaf, with the awesome content, and combines the charm of the original with the more grounded villagers or like the rougher parts of the original Animal Crossing game.

  • @rrrr0binn
    @rrrr0binn 10 месяцев назад +2

    personally i like that 3am music, because it sounds more in-keeping with the AC music i loved from WW, CF and NL. Most of New Horizons' hourly music is so un-AC and bland. :/ Also, since the 2.0 update I've fallen really in love with NH, but when it first came out, it really was so barren and empty. the 2.0 update added almost everything that I felt was missing, but I have NO idea why they removed New Leaf's multiplayer minigames. Now, in NH, there's basically nothing to do with friends, whereas in the previous game you could have so much fun on the minigame tours. :( I don't wanna just run around aimlessly.
    edit: why the hell can't we help brewster anymore either? man, i'm fuming

    The fix for not letting special fruit trees die, is to chop down an existing tree, remove the stump with your shovel and bury the fruit in the space left behind. That way you know a tree will grow in that spot pretty much, guaranteed.

    New Leaf is my fav AC game, the only thing that bothers me is the repetetive dialogues, sometimes a villager will say the same phrase 3 times in a row.
    If we could mix New Leaf with Wild World dialogues and New Horizons graphics, it would be the best AC game from all the time.

    you were wrong about one thing: the city folk controls are only point and click *if you don’t have a nunchuck.* although that doesn’t exactly make the controls great, seeing as the motion controls for the tools means you can’t adjust your hand without randomly going fishing 💀 good video though!

    • @CuteKittyMeep

    CF was my first AC game, so it's great to hear someone else liked it :D it definitely had it's issues, but it also had some good stuff. there was the city with a bunch of shops, there was still some character backstory (Labelle!), when your house was fully upgraded it would have a little flag that you could customize, villagers would lose their house key and ask you for help finding it, the lost and found, the recycling bin, the fountain you could unlock that came with a special character, and last but not least, it has my favorite version of the Turkey Day event (Look it up if you haven't played it before! it's hilarious). I realize this doesn't fit the video topic technically, but I'm so used to people hating on CF that hearing someone say it was their second favorite got me so excited!
    Oh, and CF also has better dialogue than NH

    • @babyqeels
      @babyqeels 9 месяцев назад +1

    I HATE the fact that the Nintendo online membership is so invasive in New Horizons. I shouldn't have to pay for an online membership to use features of the game that weren't locked behind a pay wall in previous installments, mainly scanning QR codes for other players' designs. I really suck at making my own designs, so downloading other designs is sort of the only way I can make paths and stuff look good, unless I want to strain my eyes copying down patterns 🙃 It really makes me wonder what's going to happen to New Horizons when Nintendo stops supporting the switch. I know that probably won't happen for a long time, but still, will we just lose access to all the online features? Sharing designs has been such an important part of my animal crossing experience in the past.

    Glad I'm not the only one who felt burned out from playing New Horizons (whereas I didn't with the other games). Figured it was just because I'm older and have more to do.
    It seems that New Horizons focuses way too much on the multiplayer aspect, of having your island look pretty so people can visit it. Everything's literally just a prop, including your villagers.
    Sure, I found trying to make my island look nice fun at first... But then, especially with the whole "you have to wait a day to move a house" thing, I started wondering what the point is, and started playing games that actually have some action. The game just felt like a chore where you do the same, boring daily tasks over and over.
    With the other games, there was some fun with finding rare items. I loved trying to get the silver and gold items! But on New Horizons, they can break! So, why bother?

    Animal Crossing New Horizons AI for the animal dialogue gets better over time, as in, the more you talk to them, the more different and unique things they have to say. That's why if you have a favorite villager you talk to more than the others, your fave will have better conversation dialogue than the ones you ignore the most and they are still stuck on basic. (Some people dont like certain of their villagers and want them to move out, so they go talk to that villager regularly to hassle it, or see if it will move out soon, but you may have noticed doing that has an opposite effect....they stay and stay....) but yeah sooo....
