My idea for an easy, and much needed improvement is Wilbur asking you if you'd like to visit another mystery island, if you have Nook Miles tickets in your pocket while leaving a mystery island. Creators like TagBackTV often do streams where they visit 50 mystery islands to hunt for a villager they want. It's just too much wasted time to go back to your island, then have to deal with Orville talking all over again.
@@time3081 Yeah, but if you're just looking for new villagers, and not really picking things up, there's no need to put things away. And you can always say yes to going home instead of another island. Mind you, this will never get put into place. Would be nice if they did tho.
Maybe when friends are visiting your island, you can give them permission to edit your island or something, so you and your best friend can edit together but that one friend that loves to prank you still can't destroy your entire village.
and maybe (not sure how hard this would be to do) they could do a thing where if that best friend DID ruin your island you could kinda like.. roll it back so that the island before they edited it was - there- idk-
Maybe they could have a permit thing like they do with the Island Designer? Like maybe you could have an option to give a permit for placing/moving items in your best friend list. That way only the people you choose have the ability to do it. Eventually it would be cool to be able to do waterscaping and cliff design with people, and having to give out a permit for each different thing would help prevent people doing too much damage.
The adb is a needed option, there were times where I needed just 10 bells for an item. even if its just a phone app where you can do bank transfers to your inventory.
@@BigMastah79 yeah it also can't magically give you a hat to build stuff or create clothes from a drawing you made or allow you to edit your passport, it's a game its fine
I wish we didn’t have to put our nook phone down each time a visitor comes to the island via dodo airlines, like the waiting time is too long. It wouldn’t even mind if they came silently and we didn’t have to go from waiting screen, to saving screen, to loading screen.
Loading in other games is much faster since all players share the same map designs. (Example is CS:GO) In ACNH, every island is uniquely different, and thus every other player must load each individual asset and placements. Not sure if they can just ditch the waiting time for other players already on the island, and just let incoming players watch the loading screen.
Villager: Hey, ! Our recent visitor has a title. Isn't that neat? It's ! Me: Cool. *two minutes later* Villager: Hey, ! Our recent visitor has a title. Isn't that neat? It's ! Me: Ya don't say -_- *five years later* Villager: Hey, ! Our recent visitor has a title. Isn't that neat? It's ! Me: Get out.
villager: hey your friend is really cool, or should I say !!! If they have a title like that we should at least use it. me: we've had this conversation 3 times today please stop
it’s kinda annoying cause they’re like “ was here before.. how close are y’all?” and i don’t even remember who they are cause it was just some random dude i traded with 😔
I would personally be so upset if I had to place another building on my island now lol. I'd be happy to have him in the museum again, but that's probably my ACWW nostalgia hitting me as well!
Personally would like ordinances back from New Leaf, more specifically ordinances that allow stores to be open at different times (Early Bird and Night Owl), though most ordinances would be useful in the long run
with how many of these videos there are, and hell, there even being a fake update direct for most of these features, you'd think they would've added them by now. these would make the game just that much more enjoyable! great video as always, though!
I disagree. I think having 10 villagers is more than enough. Otherwise more villager houses will crowd up the island, it'd be hard to keep track of who you've talked to, and it keeps it fresh to have new villagers you dont have already!
We need at LEAST 15 villagers allowed living on the island also we should be able to upgrade our first five villagers houses from just a D.I.Y. house to their normal house so we wouldnt have to make all five of our first villagers move out.
building with your friends is something i miss, they need to add another level of best friends, giving this to a person you really trust let them do everything you can when it comes to terraforming and placing down things and so on, it is kinda boring to visit other islands as it is now, all you do is look around drop something they want maybe buy/sell something you want from the shop and that's pretty much it.. would be super fun to terraform and build with friends and to get help on your island if you are not super creative (like me) would make the game a million times more fun.
On the subject of bunny day, I completed it but it was so frustrating. Well, 5 seconds have passed, better spawn another balloon! You need ore, well here's 8 eggs instead! Prevented me from doing anything else.
There’s one thing I want that nobody seems to mention: in nook shopping, if an item has multiple variants, if you have them all, the palette turns golden.
What about Having to go back and forth, if you want to redeem nook mile prizes? i mean, its annoying to have to go back and forth, if you want like a nook mile ticket, say 20 of them, its gets annoying after awhile, that is something, i would like for them to change.
Before watching. Turning front (down) when switching items, certain things locked when visiting, inventory space, ability to move wall items with house tool, building tools are massively clunky (need something like the house tool), bridges and ramps take more space than their size, more than 10 villagers, some distinguishing feature on fruit trees other than fruit (may exist and I don't know), no limit on items from nook stop, remove camera restrictions (will never happen, Nintendo loves this for some reason and does it in many games), amiibo or cards for all new characters (i think amiibo is dead now), cloud save backup (I don't understand the rationale for not having it). I had a dream that I installed a third party patch to fix some of this stuff and I jumped onto a slope (doesn't exist) and rolled down and off it but then it turned out to be malware and closed the game and gave me all these warning messages. Random fact no one cares about!
I think even if Isabelle doesn’t say something like “At 7pm Celeste will be wandering around” even a simple “I’m sure I overheard Blathers say Celeste is coming for a visit soon”
I want there to be a music app. I know about town tunes, but I mean a app where you could make your own music like town tunes only with a lot more notes to work with, and then being able to purchase CDs or pay to get a copy of your masterpiece to register on your Radios or DJ tables. Imagine going to friends islands and hearing a literal masterpiece, that would be so cool!
Having an option to go back in dialogue to repeat any missed speech or to change an option to something else would be really helpful in my opinion E.g. changing an option at the airport to "via online play" rather than "via local play" if you misclicked or even entering a different dodo code if the first one was incorrect (rather than having to go through all the dialogue again)
i totally agree with all of these, especially the fossil one. i want to know how far away i am from finishing that portion of the museum, it would be so much easier .
Love the content, very relatable indeed, especially the clams and terra forming...I hate how you can pick up placed items without any confirmation. Iff I would get a dollar for each time I removed fences and pools when trying to pick up fruit and wood, the game would've basically been my day job right now
I would love they to implement a system that permits a player to remove any villager they want without have to glitch the game with time travel and stuff...
I totally agree on all remarks! I would also love to be able to visit random player islands, and to be able to have random visitors. That was what i actually thought dreaming would be like.
Im so glad someone else shares my pain Also aaaaaaaaaa you also have Ozzie, I love him so much, he was the first person to be invited to my island (Not counting the two you start with)
also, sorta adding on to the terraforming grid thing; we need a grid for when we're planting flowers/digging things/placing furniture, it would just make it a lot more convenient
*Things I want:* 1: Brewster’s Cafe 2: The ability to print out multiple NMTs at a time. 3: Orville to stop asking for five-hundredth-fucking time if I’m okay with having strangers on my island while I’m trying to trade (Just shut up, dude). 4: More streamlined menu for flying (as you mentioned) 5: More spaces for custom designs. 6: More inventory space (maybe having more wardrobes could increase it? Or a new separate one for clothes?) 7&8: The ability to buy multiple colors of an item in the dressing room & for it to show you what you already own. I know you mentioned some of these, but not all.
I use an app on my phone where it tells you what fish and bugs are available at the current time or whenever you set it to, Tracks how many bugs, fish and fossils you are missing from the museum, songs you are missing, lists all crafting recepies, furniture and clothing and even lists information about all villagers
I'm so in love with the video but as you said, there are things that could be better and you basically nailed all my issues in one swoop. Aside from the crafting in bulk and no indication for breakage, the lack of interactivity of the villagers is my biggest pet peeve. Coming from Pocket Camp where villagers ride carousels, sit and eat, go swimming or do whatever and you can still talk to them and do your thing, it's really frustrating how little the villagers interact with things in NH. I still think they are adorable but just sitting or staring at things isn't enough.
i want the observatory back!!! id love to go back to constellations.... like she could still go outside on days w meteor showers or shooting stars but! id like her to be added! and with brewsters kk should be vibing there sometimes extra if you have a 5 star island... a little treat for us
YES!! i havent been playing for that long tbh but i fully agree with all of this, especially not being able to craft in bulk, having to try to remember wich materials i need for what i need to craft and that taking forever, tools breaking without warning and not being able to buy everything i want in one go in able sisters :/ and i got really sad when i realized how little the villagers interact with the items you place, my only previous experience with AC is pocket camp and it was always nice to see them interacting with the stuff - wouldnt have thought that a console game like this couldnt do something that a mobile game could. like we spend all this time crafting and decorating our islands but it just sits there...meanwhile all your villagers are just walking around or sitting on the bare ground eating an icecream...
being able to build a two layer high cliff without needing the stupid 1 grid block step down would be amazing , would be able to reclaim so much land, also would love it if paths actually meshed with the ends of diagonal bridges too and river banks could be curved rather than constantly trying to form hexagon shapes. a shallow bend wouldn't be hard to put in.
To add to the "grid" thing, I think we need to go further: Animal Crossing as a *franchise* needs a "strafe/select" mode when you have a tool equipped. Holding ZR or something makes your villager's orientation "lock" to their currently facing direction, and movement causes them to strafe and sidestep instead of changing orientation. The right stick is the only thing that rotates them. In addition, their currently selected tile(s) or locations with their currently equipped tool are highlighted with a transparent indicator also highlighting what the nearby grid currently looks like. (or, in the case of the bug net/fishing rod, simply a small arrow below them indicating the exact direction the villager is aiming). Things like fences or any Terraforming mode counts as a "tool". This would immediately solve pretty much all problems with perspective or all of those "shit, I didn't want to dig THERE" moments and allow for things to be much more precise, not to mention allowing people to double-check what their grids are, measuring spaces, etc. New Horizons even has a perfect way for this to not overwhelm new players by just locking it behind a Nook Miles reward, like the tool ring also is.
Idea: talk to tom nook, select 1 or more things you would like to build (ramps, inclines etc), you put up the locations, then outside resident services, you see lloyd Lloyd: "Hello friend! Currently we have some outstanding payments, if you would select one to donate even 1 bell to, it would help immensely!" You select one from a list and then like normal you select the amount of bells max or a random number. If you pay off the rest of a build, Lloyd says: "hooray, thanks to you we can tick this (incline/bridge) off of our list! Now I only hope we can gather enough bells to fund the others..." the next day you pick which ceremony you would like to attend if you have paid off more than one (you can select more after, but you cant attend them all in the same millisecond).
I've played almost all the AC games and there are always quality of life issues that get so frustrating. I haven't been playing NH long- less than 2 weeks, but ...*YES!* to everything you've mentioned here. I can't imagine having dealt with some of these issues since day 1.
god i can't agree more about the grid when terraforming. i've been doing some modifications to the area around my secret beach and it gets frustrating when you've accidentally broken down and built up the same cliff piece five times. i've even thought to myself, "this would be so much easier with a grid to see exactly where i'm about to build up a cliff."
one thing is being allowed to talk to isabelle about a villager you want to move out. it would make kicking out villagers so much easier. if that cant happen then how about villagers just go directly to you and ask if they can leave? that would help to. another is wilbur letting us go to mystery islands that way we dont have to go back and go to orville every single time we go villager hunting.
I wish there were more things to do in a single day. You shake your trees, hunt for balloon presents, stock your inventory with sellable items, hunt for fossils and shop and then that's pretty much it, you accomplish those things in 20 minutes or less. Then the rest of the day you are just sitting around with nothing to do. I'd like minigames, more interactions with villagers, be able to interact with the items I put down like the pool and teacup ride other than lights and maybe more places to shop like an arcade or hair salon or beauty store.
In regards to manilla clams, a compromise I'd agree with is if you could have a bucket or something to collect them in like you would with real life clams, scallops, oysters etc.
One QoL change I think they should add, is allowing scorpions and tarantulas to spawn while you have visitors, currently they despawn when someone visits, which is rather bizarre. I don't think wasps will drop from trees either when you have visitors.
I know this has been out for a bit but- I think it would be really cute if Isabelle gave you a weather report in the announcements! It would give her more things to say and it would just be a nice extra mini thing, she already says about the changing seasons weather after all One thing im glad they changed though is that villagers can't randomly move out without you knowing, that was always so sad in old games when you just got a letter one day saying "im gone lol"
More on the dodo system, I would like there to be an option for you to go back if you misclicked an option that was given to you because there have been too many times where I have clicked the wrong option and have had to go ALL the way back, skipping through the dialogue all over again. I know this could be a mistake on my part for not paying enough attention or just too careless and accidentally clicking the wrong option in my haste to JUST GET THROUGH IT OMG but it would be a nice addition as it would save a lot of time (especially since I do a lot of online trades where it requires you to go to other players islands). This goes for all other dialogue in general. I just wish there was an option to go back if you missed a bit. It could be incorporated into the speak like "sorry I missed that, could you repeat?" Or "I didn't hear that, could you say it again please?" But yeah I think that would be very helpful to me and probably many other players :)
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't remember catching any water eggs during the fishing tourney. Maybe it's because I only ever used bait for those, which guarantees you a fish. Alternatively, they could just make the eggs count as a successful catch as well, even if you technically didn't catch a fish.
Another thing that would be beneficial for those of us who work afternoon or even night shifts is the ability to set the open times for the shops because it’s not very fair for those of us who want to play in our native timezones(no timetravelling) but work most of the day or all night into the morning and as a result, we sleep late. It’s hard to make bells and buy stuff when the shop is always closed and I personally view timetravelling as cheating so I don’t want to do that.
I know this isnt the most easiest way to find out what fossils you have but you can use the nook shopping menu under the wallpaper, flooring, and more option.
I completely agree with all of these but the two I would love to see the most is being and to buy bulk items in Ables and a more streamlined dialog at DAL.
As for an update I'd like to see, it's a stupid update but I'd really like to be able to purchase doughnuts and sandwiches etc that I could eat like the villagers do. I used to love walking around my New Leaf town drinking a coffee from Brewsters and I keep seeing my villagers in New Horizons with doughnuts and drinks and it just really makes me miss that.
I want to be able to change the houses of the first 5 villagers on the island to what they're supposed to be. Like the interiors are wrong for the villagers and they're all generic across every players island
Here’s my idea, Whenever I want to open the island designer app to terraform my island, it takes so long to set it up! It’s kinda annoying. Like I have to keep pressing “A” and holding down “B” to make the text faster. I just *wish* that there was a faster way to open up my island designer app. But when you said to never add bunny day again, I think bunny day was cute to not call it just Easter. And I do like how they had an event for it, and would like it next year, BUT DON’T PUT SO MANY EGGS EVERYWHERE! It was so annoying when I’m just trying to fish or dig up fossils and it’s like “I CAUGHT AN EARTH EGG”
Other ideas: 20 of a flower head can be crafted into a flower seed, including hybrids. All players are reps: the island rep has the ability to toggle on and off if the other players can do things like donate to nooks cranny, move houses, build bridges, etc. Becuase being player 2 SUCKS
I agree with everything especially the clothing store bit I wanted to get all the colors of the magical girl dresses for my villagers but it was so tedious and I didn't get all of them because I lost track of what I was buying
I want to be able to chat with Isabelle. She is always working and you can't just have a conversation with her. Maybe she could get break where she wanders around the island for an hour or so. Even just the option of talking to her with out sitting on the stool be a normal conversation.
I want awnings or canopies. i'm obsessed with rain and I designed my house inside to look like a bus stop, and my bed is a cardboard box, and used the rainy wallpaper you get from Sahara, and my only problem is that there's no roof or awnings to put on my bus stop.
I think it’d be cool if you could set permissions for island editing, for different users! The default permission would be “editing off” and you could have different settings for everyone
I think not being able to place items when someone is visiting is more of a logistic thing than something that nintendo just forgot or didn't want to put in the game. I'm no game designer or programmer, but imagine if you or your visitor(s) disconnected for some reason. How would that affect the unsaved changes on placed items? It may be something to work on when other glitches are fixed.
I agree with all of the things in this video, but i think another QoL change for new horizons is needed in the museum, I really miss the feature on the old AC games where you could read the descriptions of the fish/bugs that you've caught any time you want. I still really don't understand why on NH you need to catch the fish/bug all over again just to hear blathers talk about it and even then they are usually very brief one note facts, though i will admit some his descriptions are pretty funny. but anyway this is truly some great content, and you definitely have earned a sub from me!
I want Nintendo to make it so player characters can do what villagers can. The villagers can sit, hold stuff, etc. We are limited to items we can hold and we need a cushion to sit on. I also wish we could interact with more stuff, like we could go in the pool or put floats in it!
we NEEEED some sort of feature where you can use the joystick to switch camera angles and be able to see your island in 360 degrees just like in your house...
i LOVE all of these ideas!! i wish we could invite our villagers over as well though :( i want to have a tea party or just hang out with them sometimes lol
A grid would be nice for the pathways, but having separate buttons mapped for the creation or clearing... I've wasted hours upon hours making and breaking paths by mistake because of the auto target movement adjusting... (that and the fact that nintendo never fixed my drift issue when i sent them out.) I'd have a 5 star island by now if not for that.
There definitely does need to be quality of life improvements, however one thing that has been said is that Animal crossing is sort of "meant to be an inconvenience", I believe a lot of the ideas they implemented into navigating this game were well thought out, and intentional, so as to stick with the slow pace of the game. That isn't to say everything is perfect, far from it. I am constantly frustrated by many of the common complaints this game receives. Btw, you can see which fossils you have obtained in your shopping catalogue. It is something at least.
I want to preview customizations, like when you go into nook shopping and they show variations there. why have it there and not in the diy app? And also how many customization kits are needed for each customizable item. It's a pain having to go to a workbench, see how many kits I need, go buy them, go back the bench, customize, and then wanna customize something else that has needs more than I thought and start all over again. it drives me crazy.
You know what I really want GYROIDS TO COME BACK Btw you made tons of great points in this video also in previous games the villagers would ask you to do tasks now they very rarely do it and it just makes the game get boring faster for me anyway
Actually, in new leaf you could see how much durability you had on your axe because it would start looking damaged. Weird how they didn't try that but with all the tools
I think the reason you can’t place things down while someone is over at your island is because people could block off the airport so the others will be trapped.
i understand why nintendo doesn’t let other people use nook stop. there are some things that you can redeem if you downloaded it from the in-game purchase. it’s like if you don’t have switch online and you can play online.
The nook stop should be available to like just best friends and I WANNA PLACE ORDERS WHEN THE GATE IS OPEN also when you’re at a mystery nook island you should be able to ask Wilbur to go to the next nook mile ticket island from there Edit: oh yeah and a shopping cart kinda thing because like with the tube top in the able sisters it took FOREVER to buy every color and moving bridges and inclines because I stupidly placed expensive stuff when I just got them and I don’t wanna demolish them
8:07 Bulk Crafting/Bulk Cooking, a Durabity Meter to our Tools to show how long our Tools last, show the sales value of our itens in Nook Cranny,Craft multiple itens for our inventory, let us buy more itens in Nook Cranny/Able Sister, fix the online.
also, I think clothing should be in a separate storage element called "closet" with unlimited space OR clothing should not count towards storage space...Idk about you guys, but I love collecting clothing items and being able to change to countless different outfits. I'm 18 days in the game and have collected over 200 clothing items. I don't even buy everything I see, just stuff I like. They have this whole fashion element to the game but its taking up too much storage
My idea for an easy, and much needed improvement is Wilbur asking you if you'd like to visit another mystery island, if you have Nook Miles tickets in your pocket while leaving a mystery island. Creators like TagBackTV often do streams where they visit 50 mystery islands to hunt for a villager they want. It's just too much wasted time to go back to your island, then have to deal with Orville talking all over again.
I agree.
yessssss
That would be so good to be true
But you get to go back and put your stuff in storage
@@time3081 Yeah, but if you're just looking for new villagers, and not really picking things up, there's no need to put things away. And you can always say yes to going home instead of another island. Mind you, this will never get put into place. Would be nice if they did tho.
I love how salty you are about the clams and also relate on an emotional level
Hard same.
I agree ☝️
@Jen AC23 It makes me so angry. Honestly don't bother with them, I just run around my island until I see a fish now, it's easier 😂
Summer Days definitely
i think theyre going to be a deep sea/sea food creature and they dont stack :(
Maybe when friends are visiting your island, you can give them permission to edit your island or something, so you and your best friend can edit together but that one friend that loves to prank you still can't destroy your entire village.
and maybe (not sure how hard this would be to do) they could do a thing where if that best friend DID ruin your island you could kinda like.. roll it back so that the island before they edited it was - there- idk-
pigeonways if they had manual save files you could load from that would be helpful (not sure how that would work with multiplayer though hmmm)
Yea or maybe have another option to move stuff around (but only you) with others on ur island
Maybe they could have a permit thing like they do with the Island Designer? Like maybe you could have an option to give a permit for placing/moving items in your best friend list. That way only the people you choose have the ability to do it. Eventually it would be cool to be able to do waterscaping and cliff design with people, and having to give out a permit for each different thing would help prevent people doing too much damage.
MY FRIENDS CHOP DOWN ALL MY TREES-
"Dodo airlines needs to have a faster system"
Me: OH MY FREAKING GOSH, YES PLEASE. I SWEAR IT TAKES 5 YEARS
RIGHT? OR HAVE IT DISPLAYED AT THE TOP OF YOUR SCREEN AND YOU CAN STILL MOVE
your being dramatic it doesn't take 5 years
it takes 15 years
when you accidentally select the wrong dialogue option right at the end
Ikr!! It’s takes so long to land and Orville talks for agessss
NOT 5 YEARS 100000 YEARS TOO MANY DIOLAUGE LIKE WHY
The adb is a needed option, there were times where I needed just 10 bells for an item. even if its just a phone app where you can do bank transfers to your inventory.
yeah there could even be a max like only 10k!
yessss
I mean, your Phone can’t dispense Money...
@@BigMastah79 yeah it also can't magically give you a hat to build stuff or create clothes from a drawing you made or allow you to edit your passport, it's a game its fine

I wish we didn’t have to put our nook phone down each time a visitor comes to the island via dodo airlines, like the waiting time is too long. It wouldn’t even mind if they came silently and we didn’t have to go from waiting screen, to saving screen, to loading screen.
Yes!! I was going to include this when talking about the Dodo option but it slipped my mind!
Loading in other games is much faster since all players share the same map designs. (Example is CS:GO)
In ACNH, every island is uniquely different, and thus every other player must load each individual asset and placements. Not sure if they can just ditch the waiting time for other players already on the island, and just let incoming players watch the loading screen.
This is unacceptable for a paid subscription too
SVGLNR it still wouldn’t need to take that long and why should the island owner have to sit through it as well
@@supersaiyangaming1092 because the visitor has to load into the island on both ends and the code for visitor interactions needs time to load too.
Villager: Hey, ! Our recent visitor has a title. Isn't that neat? It's !

it’s kinda annoying cause they’re like “ was here before.. how close are y’all?” and i don’t even remember who they are cause it was just some random dude i traded with 😔
I miss the wild world dialogue.
My friends title is weak trash and all my villagers call her that.
The only thing I want from Brewsters is for it to be a standalone building again.
I would personally be so upset if I had to place another building on my island now lol. I'd be happy to have him in the museum again, but that's probably my ACWW nostalgia hitting me as well!
Yes! Or if leif has a shop! Im saving spots for stuff like that in case lol
Well at least Brewster is a thing now lmao
I feel the need to say that they MUST add a update where you can move resident services. I for one placed mine in a very asymmetrical shitty place.
the only thing stopping me from liking this comment is your cursed pfp
Ikr!I reset my island because I wanted to make a fancy entrance, but the area was RIGHT next to the airport.
YES! I'm going for a forestcore island and I have a nice layout, except for Resident services. I want it to be deeper into the woods, not right there.
YES I HATE WHERE MY RESIDENT SERVICES IS BECUASE I WAS STUPID WHEN I GOT THE GAME BUT I DONT WANT TO RESTART BECAUSE OF MY RESIDENCE SERVICES
y'all got to place your resident services..?
Personally would like ordinances back from New Leaf, more specifically ordinances that allow stores to be open at different times (Early Bird and Night Owl), though most ordinances would be useful in the long run
Ur wish has came true in the 2.0 update :)
with how many of these videos there are, and hell, there even being a fake update direct for most of these features, you'd think they would've added them by now. these would make the game just that much more enjoyable! great video as always, though!
i saw this on insta and she said make another character named doug the dog like cj and flick but they buy your fossils
That's fuckin' smart!! :00
Blathers always talks about buying your dupes for his 'personal collection' but he never does :<
maybe Nintendo can elaborate more on that !!
also maybe someone else for sea creatures or maybe make pascal do that
Dogs and bones??!! I love it!
I had the idea where on a certain day and time, Blathers has to much “fruit juice” loses all self control, and buys your fossils for extra cash
I wish our items (dresser, work bench, etc.) actually had their own separate storage so we don't have to pollute our house storage with it!
I know
I miss the credit card from City Folk :(
You just like dragged this out of the depths of my memory omg
i liked this idea but i feel it was kind of useless as it inly rlly worked in graciegrace , but a bank card would fit in with the new phone feature!
And I wouldn't have to lug around all my bell stacks
Like even if there was a fee to use the card I would still use it
I believe Nintendo should let us have 5 more villagers like in the first game am I the only one
Yeah, I really want more villagers.
yess i want more villagers 🥺 like maybe 2 more
I disagree. I think having 10 villagers is more than enough. Otherwise more villager houses will crowd up the island, it'd be hard to keep track of who you've talked to, and it keeps it fresh to have new villagers you dont have already!
Epecially when you are playing local multiplayer, also I will love more villagers
We need at LEAST 15 villagers allowed living on the island also we should be able to upgrade our first five villagers houses from just a D.I.Y. house to their normal house so we wouldnt have to make all five of our first villagers move out.
building with your friends is something i miss, they need to add another level of best friends, giving this to a person you really trust let them do everything you can when it comes to terraforming and placing down things and so on, it is kinda boring to visit other islands as it is now, all you do is look around drop something they want maybe buy/sell something you want from the shop and that's pretty much it.. would be super fun to terraform and build with friends and to get help on your island if you are not super creative (like me) would make the game a million times more fun.
On the subject of bunny day, I completed it but it was so frustrating. Well, 5 seconds have passed, better spawn another balloon! You need ore, well here's 8 eggs instead! Prevented me from doing anything else.
There’s one thing I want that nobody seems to mention: in nook shopping, if an item has multiple variants, if you have them all, the palette turns golden.
What about Having to go back and forth, if you want to redeem nook mile prizes? i mean, its annoying to have to go back and forth,
if you want like a nook mile ticket, say 20 of them, its gets annoying after awhile, that is something, i would like for them to change.
Before watching. Turning front (down) when switching items, certain things locked when visiting, inventory space, ability to move wall items with house tool, building tools are massively clunky (need something like the house tool), bridges and ramps take more space than their size, more than 10 villagers, some distinguishing feature on fruit trees other than fruit (may exist and I don't know), no limit on items from nook stop, remove camera restrictions (will never happen, Nintendo loves this for some reason and does it in many games), amiibo or cards for all new characters (i think amiibo is dead now), cloud save backup (I don't understand the rationale for not having it).
I had a dream that I installed a third party patch to fix some of this stuff and I jumped onto a slope (doesn't exist) and rolled down and off it but then it turned out to be malware and closed the game and gave me all these warning messages. Random fact no one cares about!
I loved “keep sitting through a load of Orville’s waffle”!
I c0me up with all sorts of cool ideas for animal crossing when I'm on the couch and never say a word about them
Same, but i have one idea, maybe you can host partys and invite villagers and also invite them to sleepover
I think even if Isabelle doesn’t say something like “At 7pm Celeste will be wandering around” even a simple “I’m sure I overheard Blathers say Celeste is coming for a visit soon”
Turnips should be able to be put in the home storage.
It ruins my island rating SO MUCH.
I want there to be a music app. I know about town tunes, but I mean a app where you could make your own music like town tunes only with a lot more notes to work with, and then being able to purchase CDs or pay to get a copy of your masterpiece to register on your Radios or DJ tables.
Imagine going to friends islands and hearing a literal masterpiece, that would be so cool!
Having an option to go back in dialogue to repeat any missed speech or to change an option to something else would be really helpful in my opinion
E.g. changing an option at the airport to "via online play" rather than "via local play" if you misclicked or even entering a different dodo code if the first one was incorrect (rather than having to go through all the dialogue again)
i totally agree with all of these, especially the fossil one. i want to know how far away i am from finishing that portion of the museum, it would be so much easier .
Love the content, very relatable indeed, especially the clams and terra forming...I hate how you can pick up placed items without any confirmation. Iff I would get a dollar for each time I removed fences and pools when trying to pick up fruit and wood, the game would've basically been my day job right now
I would love they to implement a system that permits a player to remove any villager they want without have to glitch the game with time travel and stuff...
I totally agree on all remarks! I would also love to be able to visit random player islands, and to be able to have random visitors. That was what i actually thought dreaming would be like.
Im so glad someone else shares my pain
Also aaaaaaaaaa you also have Ozzie, I love him so much, he was the first person to be invited to my island (Not counting the two you start with)
also, sorta adding on to the terraforming grid thing; we need a grid for when we're planting flowers/digging things/placing furniture, it would just make it a lot more convenient
*Things I want:* 1: Brewster’s Cafe 2: The ability to print out multiple NMTs at a time. 3: Orville to stop asking for five-hundredth-fucking time if I’m okay with having strangers on my island while I’m trying to trade (Just shut up, dude). 4: More streamlined menu for flying (as you mentioned) 5: More spaces for custom designs. 6: More inventory space (maybe having more wardrobes could increase it? Or a new separate one for clothes?) 7&8: The ability to buy multiple colors of an item in the dressing room & for it to show you what you already own. I know you mentioned some of these, but not all.
I use an app on my phone where it tells you what fish and bugs are available at the current time or whenever you set it to, Tracks how many bugs, fish and fossils you are missing from the museum, songs you are missing, lists all crafting recepies, furniture and clothing and even lists information about all villagers
I'm so in love with the video but as you said, there are things that could be better and you basically nailed all my issues in one swoop. Aside from the crafting in bulk and no indication for breakage, the lack of interactivity of the villagers is my biggest pet peeve. Coming from Pocket Camp where villagers ride carousels, sit and eat, go swimming or do whatever and you can still talk to them and do your thing, it's really frustrating how little the villagers interact with things in NH. I still think they are adorable but just sitting or staring at things isn't enough.
i want the observatory back!!! id love to go back to constellations.... like she could still go outside on days w meteor showers or shooting stars but! id like her to be added! and with brewsters kk should be vibing there sometimes extra if you have a 5 star island... a little treat for us
YES!! i havent been playing for that long tbh but i fully agree with all of this, especially not being able to craft in bulk, having to try to remember wich materials i need for what i need to craft and that taking forever, tools breaking without warning and not being able to buy everything i want in one go in able sisters :/ and i got really sad when i realized how little the villagers interact with the items you place, my only previous experience with AC is pocket camp and it was always nice to see them interacting with the stuff - wouldnt have thought that a console game like this couldnt do something that a mobile game could. like we spend all this time crafting and decorating our islands but it just sits there...meanwhile all your villagers are just walking around or sitting on the bare ground eating an icecream...
being able to build a two layer high cliff without needing the stupid 1 grid block step down would be amazing , would be able to reclaim so much land, also would love it if paths actually meshed with the ends of diagonal bridges too and river banks could be curved rather than constantly trying to form hexagon shapes. a shallow bend wouldn't be hard to put in.
Thankyou, someone with tools on the top. *I appreciate that :3*
#AnimalCrossing
To add to the "grid" thing, I think we need to go further: Animal Crossing as a *franchise* needs a "strafe/select" mode when you have a tool equipped.
Holding ZR or something makes your villager's orientation "lock" to their currently facing direction, and movement causes them to strafe and sidestep instead of changing orientation. The right stick is the only thing that rotates them. In addition, their currently selected tile(s) or locations with their currently equipped tool are highlighted with a transparent indicator also highlighting what the nearby grid currently looks like. (or, in the case of the bug net/fishing rod, simply a small arrow below them indicating the exact direction the villager is aiming). Things like fences or any Terraforming mode counts as a "tool".
This would immediately solve pretty much all problems with perspective or all of those "shit, I didn't want to dig THERE" moments and allow for things to be much more precise, not to mention allowing people to double-check what their grids are, measuring spaces, etc. New Horizons even has a perfect way for this to not overwhelm new players by just locking it behind a Nook Miles reward, like the tool ring also is.
Idea: talk to tom nook, select 1 or more things you would like to build (ramps, inclines etc), you put up the locations, then outside resident services, you see lloyd
Lloyd: "Hello friend! Currently we have some outstanding payments, if you would select one to donate even 1 bell to, it would help immensely!"
You select one from a list and then like normal you select the amount of bells max or a random number.
If you pay off the rest of a build, Lloyd says: "hooray, thanks to you we can tick this (incline/bridge) off of our list! Now I only hope we can gather enough bells to fund the others..." the next day you pick which ceremony you would like to attend if you have paid off more than one (you can select more after, but you cant attend them all in the same millisecond).
I've played almost all the AC games and there are always quality of life issues that get so frustrating. I haven't been playing NH long- less than 2 weeks, but ...*YES!* to everything you've mentioned here. I can't imagine having dealt with some of these issues since day 1.
god i can't agree more about the grid when terraforming. i've been doing some modifications to the area around my secret beach and it gets frustrating when you've accidentally broken down and built up the same cliff piece five times. i've even thought to myself, "this would be so much easier with a grid to see exactly where i'm about to build up a cliff."
"7 pairs of the same shoes because you keep forgetting you already bought them"
Me:
5:35 sometimes I accidentally click on something or think it looks bad so I agree you should be able to get rid of basketed items aswell!
one thing is being allowed to talk to isabelle about a villager you want to move out. it would make kicking out villagers so much easier. if that cant happen then how about villagers just go directly to you and ask if they can leave? that would help to. another is wilbur letting us go to mystery islands that way we dont have to go back and go to orville every single time we go villager hunting.
I wish there were more things to do in a single day. You shake your trees, hunt for balloon presents, stock your inventory with sellable items, hunt for fossils and shop and then that's pretty much it, you accomplish those things in 20 minutes or less. Then the rest of the day you are just sitting around with nothing to do. I'd like minigames, more interactions with villagers, be able to interact with the items I put down like the pool and teacup ride other than lights and maybe more places to shop like an arcade or hair salon or beauty store.
In regards to manilla clams, a compromise I'd agree with is if you could have a bucket or something to collect them in like you would with real life clams, scallops, oysters etc.
What I want are “letter stamps” while designing. Like the star stamp, but in letters. It will make designing easier in my opinion.
Curly, (a pig in new herizons that i have) said this to my sister “hey amelia moved? She is so ugly.“ IM SHOOK
One QoL change I think they should add, is allowing scorpions and tarantulas to spawn while you have visitors, currently they despawn when someone visits, which is rather bizarre. I don't think wasps will drop from trees either when you have visitors.
I know this has been out for a bit but- I think it would be really cute if Isabelle gave you a weather report in the announcements! It would give her more things to say and it would just be a nice extra mini thing, she already says about the changing seasons weather after all
One thing im glad they changed though is that villagers can't randomly move out without you knowing, that was always so sad in old games when you just got a letter one day saying "im gone lol"
More on the dodo system, I would like there to be an option for you to go back if you misclicked an option that was given to you because there have been too many times where I have clicked the wrong option and have had to go ALL the way back, skipping through the dialogue all over again. I know this could be a mistake on my part for not paying enough attention or just too careless and accidentally clicking the wrong option in my haste to JUST GET THROUGH IT OMG but it would be a nice addition as it would save a lot of time (especially since I do a lot of online trades where it requires you to go to other players islands).
This goes for all other dialogue in general. I just wish there was an option to go back if you missed a bit. It could be incorporated into the speak like "sorry I missed that, could you repeat?" Or "I didn't hear that, could you say it again please?" But yeah I think that would be very helpful to me and probably many other players :)
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't remember catching any water eggs during the fishing tourney. Maybe it's because I only ever used bait for those, which guarantees you a fish. Alternatively, they could just make the eggs count as a successful catch as well, even if you technically didn't catch a fish.
Another thing that would be beneficial for those of us who work afternoon or even night shifts is the ability to set the open times for the shops because it’s not very fair for those of us who want to play in our native timezones(no timetravelling) but work most of the day or all night into the morning and as a result, we sleep late. It’s hard to make bells and buy stuff when the shop is always closed and I personally view timetravelling as cheating so I don’t want to do that.
Let me know when my inventory is full as soon as it fills, not when I pick up one thing too many. That's the only thing I'd add.
I love all of your ideas. I hope they incorporate a majority of your ideas into the game.
I agree, the only npc I can think of where it shouldn’t be announced they are the island is Redd because he’s trying to hide from Tom Nook.
I want to have the option to remove the background music. Sometimes I just want the sounds of nature for a more relaxing gameplay.
I know this isnt the most easiest way to find out what fossils you have but you can use the nook shopping menu under the wallpaper, flooring, and more option.
I could not agree with you more, especially about crafting, stacking clams, and a way to measure the lifespan of tools.
I completely agree with all of these but the two I would love to see the most is being and to buy bulk items in Ables and a more streamlined dialog at DAL.
I love these ideas. Sucks that Nintendo probably won’t use them because the video doesn’t have much exposure.
There actually is a way to check what Fossils you have... They're located in the Nook Shopping Catalog under ''Walls, Flooring and Other''.
I just wanna say this, but I discovered that assessed fossils sell for BIG BELLS so if u stack up on fossils, then you can asses them and make money!
I want to close my gate from the phones. We should have a dodo app!
As for an update I'd like to see, it's a stupid update but I'd really like to be able to purchase doughnuts and sandwiches etc that I could eat like the villagers do. I used to love walking around my New Leaf town drinking a coffee from Brewsters and I keep seeing my villagers in New Horizons with doughnuts and drinks and it just really makes me miss that.
I want to be able to change the houses of the first 5 villagers on the island to what they're supposed to be. Like the interiors are wrong for the villagers and they're all generic across every players island
Here’s my idea,
Whenever I want to open the island designer app to terraform my island, it takes so long to set it up! It’s kinda annoying. Like I have to keep pressing “A” and holding down “B” to make the text faster. I just *wish* that there was a faster way to open up my island designer app.
But when you said to never add bunny day again, I think bunny day was cute to not call it just Easter. And I do like how they had an event for it, and would like it next year, BUT DON’T PUT SO MANY EGGS EVERYWHERE! It was so annoying when I’m just trying to fish or dig up fossils and it’s like “I CAUGHT AN EARTH EGG”
On the mini-map with online play, an indicator that shows where friends are would be noice.
Other ideas:
20 of a flower head can be crafted into a flower seed, including hybrids.
All players are reps: the island rep has the ability to toggle on and off if the other players can do things like donate to nooks cranny, move houses, build bridges, etc. Becuase being player 2 SUCKS
I want more personalised villager speech because it’s the same after a while for every single villager
Dressing room: you can buy 1 of each type: 1 hat, 1 sock, 1 top, 1 shoe etc all at once. Use the different tabs.
I agree with everything especially the clothing store bit I wanted to get all the colors of the magical girl dresses for my villagers but it was so tedious and I didn't get all of them because I lost track of what I was buying
Yess! Especially the able sisters, I have three pairs of yellow sneakers because I keep forgetting:(
I want to be able to chat with Isabelle. She is always working and you can't just have a conversation with her. Maybe she could get break where she wanders around the island for an hour or so. Even just the option of talking to her with out sitting on the stool be a normal conversation.
I wish there was an NPC that would be interested in fossils, (sorta like Flick and CJ) and would buy fossils at a higher price than Timmy and Tommy
I want awnings or canopies. i'm obsessed with rain and I designed my house inside to look like a bus stop, and my bed is a cardboard box, and used the rainy wallpaper you get from Sahara, and my only problem is that there's no roof or awnings to put on my bus stop.
I think it’d be cool if you could set permissions for island editing, for different users! The default permission would be “editing off” and you could have different settings for everyone
I think not being able to place items when someone is visiting is more of a logistic thing than something that nintendo just forgot or didn't want to put in the game. I'm no game designer or programmer, but imagine if you or your visitor(s) disconnected for some reason. How would that affect the unsaved changes on placed items? It may be something to work on when other glitches are fixed.
I agree with all of the things in this video, but i think another QoL change for new horizons is needed in the museum, I really miss the feature on the old AC games where you could read the descriptions of the fish/bugs that you've caught any time you want. I still really don't understand why on NH you need to catch the fish/bug all over again just to hear blathers talk about it and even then they are usually very brief one note facts, though i will admit some his descriptions are pretty funny. but anyway this is truly some great content, and you definitely have earned a sub from me!
I want Nintendo to make it so player characters can do what villagers can. The villagers can sit, hold stuff, etc. We are limited to items we can hold and we need a cushion to sit on. I also wish we could interact with more stuff, like we could go in the pool or put floats in it!
we NEEEED some sort of feature where you can use the joystick to switch camera angles and be able to see your island in 360 degrees just like in your house...
this is all stuff i didn't know i needed but boy i do now
i LOVE all of these ideas!! i wish we could invite our villagers over as well though :( i want to have a tea party or just hang out with them sometimes lol
You used to be able to store things in drawers or lockers and access it at any locker around the island (or others if I remember right!)
Ikr, I miss opening my pear drawer to put away stuff.
A grid would be nice for the pathways, but having separate buttons mapped for the creation or clearing... I've wasted hours upon hours making and breaking paths by mistake because of the auto target movement adjusting... (that and the fact that nintendo never fixed my drift issue when i sent them out.)
I'd have a 5 star island by now if not for that.
There definitely does need to be quality of life improvements, however one thing that has been said is that Animal crossing is sort of "meant to be an inconvenience", I believe a lot of the ideas they implemented into navigating this game were well thought out, and intentional, so as to stick with the slow pace of the game. That isn't to say everything is perfect, far from it. I am constantly frustrated by many of the common complaints this game receives.
Btw, you can see which fossils you have obtained in your shopping catalogue. It is something at least.
I honestly didn’t know about the shopping catalogue thing for fossils, thats really cool!
Yes yes yes!! I agree with these on so many levels. Ugh, the clams! Lol right there with you
I want to preview customizations, like when you go into nook shopping and they show variations there. why have it there and not in the diy app? And also how many customization kits are needed for each customizable item. It's a pain having to go to a workbench, see how many kits I need, go buy them, go back the bench, customize, and then wanna customize something else that has needs more than I thought and start all over again. it drives me crazy.
You know what I really want
GYROIDS TO COME BACK
Btw you made tons of great points in this video also in previous games the villagers would ask you to do tasks now they very rarely do it and it just makes the game get boring faster for me anyway
If Nook's Cranny gets upgraded again, SELL BAIT
Actually, in new leaf you could see how much durability you had on your axe because it would start looking damaged. Weird how they didn't try that but with all the tools
I think the reason you can’t place things down while someone is over at your island is because people could block off the airport so the others will be trapped.
i understand why nintendo doesn’t let other people use nook stop. there are some things that you can redeem if you downloaded it from the in-game purchase. it’s like if you don’t have switch online and you can play online.
The nook stop should be available to like just best friends and I WANNA PLACE ORDERS WHEN THE GATE IS OPEN also when you’re at a mystery nook island you should be able to ask Wilbur to go to the next nook mile ticket island from there
Edit: oh yeah and a shopping cart kinda thing because like with the tube top in the able sisters it took FOREVER to buy every color and moving bridges and inclines because I stupidly placed expensive stuff when I just got them and I don’t wanna demolish them
I actually like Bunny Day. unlike a lot of people I Think it's Fun.
for the fossil issue, i've looked at my catalog to find out what fossils i've found, and which ones i haven't.
8:07 Bulk Crafting/Bulk Cooking, a Durabity Meter to our Tools to show how long our Tools last, show the sales value of our itens in Nook Cranny,Craft multiple itens for our inventory, let us buy more itens in Nook Cranny/Able Sister, fix the online.
also, I think clothing should be in a separate storage element called "closet" with unlimited space OR clothing should not count towards storage space...Idk about you guys, but I love collecting clothing items and being able to change to countless different outfits. I'm 18 days in the game and have collected over 200 clothing items. I don't even buy everything I see, just stuff I like. They have this whole fashion element to the game but its taking up too much storage
