One of my favorite villagers, Punchy, he keeps on telling me about how he thinks the world of Animal Crossing is fake and that everything he does ultimately is for the enjoyment of a complete stranger. This has happened to him twice on my island, and he always plays it off as a joke. But knowing that he gets freaked out by the fact that he wouldn’t be able to actually handle his reality being fake made me feel terrible for him. I think that was the most tragic Animal Crossing New Horizons moment for me was.
I think this is why I will never delete my island on new horizons. I lost a friend suddenly who played with me during covid. I cried when one of my villages where "hey i haven't seen x for a while, hope they are okay" 😢
The best thing to happen to me: I lost Beardo in animal crossing new leaf, and a couple days after he moved out, I found him in new horizons on the random islands and his line said "it was like destiny meeing you here" and it absolutely was.
Something similar happened to me. My brother and I had a town in New Leaf, and Katt was his favorite character (mine too) One day we went on, and she had moved out. We were so sad. But when I got New Horizons for my birthday... Guess who was one of the two characters joining me on the island? :) Katt lives very happily on our island now, still in our lives.
Regarding the bottled message from the husband to his wife... I always thought the wife had died and he was trying to send her a message by tossing it into the sea because he couldn't just tell her directly anymore.
I went into Gloria's house yesterday and she told me "you can't choose your family, but you can choose your furniture. And really, that's what's important." Giiirl, who hurt you??😢
In ACNH my snooty became so sad because of flowers. She came up to me and said what about the flowers, the flowers are all gone. She started crying and I felt so bad that I planted more flowers even though I didn't need more flowers. Also in NH my villagers will ask how come a visitor hasn't came back to visit them and they hope they come back soon. In NL my villagers often ask if I know anyone that would come to visit because new people are always great to have around. I feel bad because nobody really plays NL anymore so I can't bring in a visitor. I did enjoy Densel"s videos and binged the entire series. Thanks for the video.
btw, Isabelle in New Leaf only gets 1 hour of sleep each night, Out of the 24 hours in a day, she only gets to sleep 1 of those hours. It's a miracle she can still function as kind as she always is. Caffeine can only carry a sleep-lacking person so much
There's something about the Animal Crossing series that is so simple, yet so deep at the same time. This channel does a great job shining a light on it.
I just wish the game itself would shine more light on it. Everything's just a tad TOO happy all the time in New Horizons. I want a bit of drama and stuff occasionally.
About towns being deleted in this franchise, I hear if your town you're deleting in New Leaf was successful enough of a town, after deleting the town, it's actually sold to Tom Nook, and he gives you Bells according to it's worth. I of course never did this myself. I'm too kind-hearted to delete my own town in any Animal Crossing game. And I'm too easy to cry over stuff that hurts me emotionally, even if the problem has nothing to do with me. Example: Someone I care about allot, is suffering emotionally. EDIT: I continued to watch the video, and you already covered that thing from New Leaf. Welp, I made a worthless comment here then
I played NL when I was 13/14 & took the letters rlly seriously. I would reply to my villagers all the time and write to myself too. Anyways, I logged on recently last year (I'm in my 20s now) & one of my original villagers showed me a letter I sent them and I got so emotional because I was upset over a test. They then told me the classic line -- I treasure this letter and idk! I went and read the letters I saved from my exchanged w my villagers and idk when you said it was a time capsule I felt it. My teenage self was littered through the whole game -- the letters, the catch phrases, and Tangy asked me if my birthday wish from 2017 came true. It was so simple, I had wished to 'be happy.' After all those hours playing the game, it was like a letter to myself. Idk!!! I tried writing letters in NH, but the villagers don't acknowledge your text as much as they did in NL, it's weird !
Speaking of loss, after my dad passed from cancer in 2018 I was devastated. However when I got New Horizons, I noticed that I had a villager named Kevin as one of my starter villagers. He has the same name as my dad, so I kept him and was so happy. It felt like my dad was with me that day...
My grandmother played almost every version of Animal Crossing with me and my sister. She passed around the time that New Horizons came out, she never got to play it. I sent her pictures I'd take off the screen with my phone of my friend and I goofing off on my shiny new island, I really just wanted her to see it before she had to go. I know she would've loved it as much as the others. She was a min-maxer for money, just so she could give it all away to her grandkids that played with her because we all worked or had school and she had spare time. I have an AC themed tattoo my friend drew for me with her name, so she's always with me. Thanks for letting me share that. Have a great day every day ❤
There’s a line of dialogue in the first game that makes me sad these days. It’s one of the vignettes from K.K.: “At some point in your childhood, you and your friends went outside to play together for the last time, and none of you knew it.”
The "delete town" option in New Horizons is unsettling to me for some reason- Tom Nook explicitly says that his and the other residents' minds will be wiped of your existence. So does Tom know *when* his mind has been erased? I also saw people talking about how Lazy villagers in New Horizons talk about the world being made-up for someone's entertainment, but then quickly disregarding that statement with a cheerful attitude. I don't want to be extreme, but is there lore where some characters know the existence of a higher being, AKA the player? Are the Lazy villagers aware, but then their minds are being wiped of these realizations? Again, Tom Nook mentions how memory wiping is a thing. I also wonder if there's an in-universe explanation for other people having the same characters at the same time? Are the characters aware of these 'copies'? Is the player seen as a higher being?
well Resseti is here, and he's well aware of how it's just a game and even knows that the player is from like, another world. In the gamecube game he says something similar to "huh? what do you mean it's just a game, it's not that bad? don't you realize how important this is? you can't just reset like that just because you want to go back in time!" I didn't exactly say it word by word, but in the original dialogue, it's said as if the player was actually saying this under their breath in the real world. And i mean just the concept of a character being aware of the saving and reseting mechanics really break the 4th wall and makes you question the universe of animal crossing
while not really sad or depressing, I remember once back in Wild World, I was visiting Elmer's house. And I was a kid at the time, probably about 13 or so. And I remember looking in his closet and seeing the text 'You saw something you weren't meant to see. Well, it's been nice knowing you!' and it freaked me out so much. I actually wrote a creepypasta based on that line of dialogue way back when. Since that day, I have never intentionally opened a villager's closet or w/e. for sure the freakiest thing that's happened to me in Animal Crossing.
@@KirbyWithPoyo I do have it saved on a flashdrive. I wrote it when I was about 13 years old, over a decade ago, and my writing has for sure improved since then. I'll be honest, I cringe looking back on it. It isn't my best work, but I keep it because it was a multiple-year project that shows some of my growth as a writer.
When you mentioned the loss of a loved one I nearly cried. My mom didn't like video games mainly because she found them meaningless and caused her motion sickness, that was until 2020 and acnh releasing. It start with her keenly watching us play on the TV, then she'd occasionally agree to play one me or my siblings account for a few minutes, then she made her own account on the island. By her birthday a year after launch(11th of March, 2021) she was completely in love, so me and my sibling organised her an acnh switch, a island hand grip, and an acnh switch case. I also made her a cake that looked like the island on the loading screen. She loved that switch and played every day after work, her favourite villager was Eric and her disliked village was hipppo. She loved it so much and decided to get me a switch light of my own(I formally share) for my birthday 12 days later. She tragically died in December that year(2021), but at least she got to play the update, I like to think that was why the updates ended so unexpectedly, she loved brewster and visited him religiously(was a coffiholic irl). Acnh just means so much to me, it took months to even consider opening my island, but at this point I can play for the most part, dispite it being emotionally. I will ALWAYS think of her when I think of the and even more so when I see Eric. I try not to think about how her island mostly likely a weed fest now and that her villagers, especially her Eric must miss her too hell and back, possibly worse than me as she is what made them alive and real.
I’m so sorry about that. I’m glad you got to make memories over something you both loved while she was here. Don’t worry, you’ll see her again one day.
this was a beautiful story. I'm so heartbroken for you and your family but I'm so glad you have acnh to remind you of her in such a fun and positive way. I hope you are doing well and wish you and your family all the best. thank you for sharing this memory
I'm so sorry, my friend. May Jesus bless you and fill your heart with His peace. You must have a lot of good memories from Animal Crossing. I miss my grandfather, but one day I saw a photo of myself as a kid and a photo of him. Though I am a girl, we favored each other. I teared up but it also made me really happy. We carry those we love with us, always. 💕💖
I'm so glad you have memories of your mom. I'm so sorry for your loss. Your story was heartbreaking 😞. Rest in peace 🕊️. I bet Eric must've been heartbroken when he found out 😢. Much love!
With the ball, it's worst when you're trying to kick it to a villager who strongly hinted that they wanted one for some reason. So you try to get it... only to find that there's a river in between, and the bridge is bowed and has no rails, so it's hard to get it across without it falling in the river. If you have the Happy Home Paradise DLC, you can come across this one when talking to a Peppy villager. Apparently, you are the only one she trusts with MOST THINGS. While it's great that she feels she can trust you, it's sad that she doesn't have a better network of trustworthy friends. (Or she has such trust issues that even villagers who are completely trustworthy haven't earned it by her standards. The very existence of cowhide rugs is kinda... I mean, mundane animals still exist alongside the sapient versions, so maybe it's one of them, but still, Tipper requires one in her vacation home...
Sometimes in older games a letter from Mom would sound pretty sad to me. Idk if it was just how I read it or what though. I used to think your parents were divorced because sometimes I swear there would be a letter that was like "I saw your dad today" and idk, it just kinda implied it for me personally. I tried finding an image for it when I was talking to a friend but never found it so maybe I made it up or something :/
Oh my gosh. Phyllis’ work struggles are a little too real. Nothing like that feeling of being trapped in a dead end job that layers heavy responsibility on you and offers little help despite promising to. Ugh, depressing.
2:51 Again Tom nook and sable never where in a relationship. Sable even says that she thought of tom nook as an older brother she never had. So Tom probably felt the same way too. Still, its sad what happens to their friendship after what Tom went through.
I used to get bullied in school , when i was younger and animal crossing new leaf has always been a safe space for me since then. The way the villagers talked to me, seemed like real friends. Occasionally i still play that game , when i am feeling down. I feel like moe (my fav villager) has been there for me more than anyone else had.
I've recently started a Animal crossing city folk town and i kept shuffling through the maps for like 2 days. When i finally got the right map i looked at the villagers. And i saw Punchy (my favorite) i've played for about a month staright but then he moved out. I made everything just so he didnt move out but it didnt work. And now knowing that i might never see him again is truly sad.
I remember getting a letter from Goldie apologising for not saying goodbye, Goldie was a character I loved with all my heart so the fact she left without me knowing hurt like hell and I she’d tears. I never picked up the game ever again and abandoned my wild world town, I’m trying to get her on my new horizons island, so far, no luck but I did get a DIY bottle from her
i remember playing animal crossing new leaf and my starting town had Tangy, a character i grew to like a lot, and then I got Molly who i liked from chuggaconroy's gameplay, in fact im pretty sure she came to my town after i visited his island via the dream suite. I had to stop Molly and Tangy from thinking of moving out quite a bit. eventually, i lost a lot of time and when i picked up New Leaf again Tangy was gone, but Molly had stuck around, that little duckling was a forever villager. Eventually i completely lost the cartridge to my game, but since I grew out of animal crossing, I didn't mind. But both Tangy and Molly have forever imprinted on me.
@@TiredChild101 That's a fair question, when I still played it I think I was just hoping to chance across her and having to order her amiibo card never really crossed my mind, also my 'trying' was just kind of 'if it happens then great, if not then not a big loss', I just remember my young DS days and being super upset about her leaving without even saying goodbye XD
A villager in my New Leaf town (I think it was Charlise? I don't remember,) brought up the topic of moving out 2 or 3 times. Normally I would be okay with letting villagers leave from my town, but they stated that they were moving because they said something along the lines of "someone they knew was having turf wars where they are", and that they didn't know what that was, and thought it was about flinging turf at other people and thought it sounds like fun to move there. ....I wish I were joking. Needless to say, I told that villager not to move out
In the Game Cube version if you quit in the middle of visiting another town they will empty your pockets and turn your face into a Gyroid, also in Wild World if you time travel too far they will put a huge weed in your town that is hard to get rid of.
the rafflesia flower is in city folk and new leaf too, its from the town being overrun by weeds though not time travel (although they usually go together)
@@ankotchi Yeah, they had put one of those right next to a rock and it drove me crazy. I ended up deleting my town before I did any research on it. A decision I later regret.
I just wish the newer games actually showed MORE of this stuff. One thing I like about a life sim, is getting to learn about the other character's lives, backstories, and the drama between them and other characters. As well as those characters actually feeling like real people with emotions and realistic reactions to bad things happening and stuff. Bonus points if all of that is also effected by choices you made. I love AC, don't get me wrong. And I love New Horizons all the same. But man, the constant permanent 'happy' vibe does get a bit old after a while. Just once I want a villager to get pissed off at another villager and smack them. Or insult you flat out to your face. Or just ragequit the island and leave without warning. I want drama once in a while. There's only so much cutesy permanently happy vibes one dude can take. I think the Able Sister's story is probably the most "in your face" one, since you usually NEED to go to their shop and talk to them, to move along upgrades and get new items and stuff. I'm really hoping the next AC game, or rumored 3.0 update (that I doubt), adjusts the villagers a bit. Raise the chance of them being a mood other than happy. Give them some less happy dialogue to say during those times. Those two minor changes alone would make the villagers so much more interesting. If you could just be walking along, see an angry villager, talk to them, and hear them complain about another villager. Or someone's upset and they go into this whole tragic backstory that you gradually get more info about (like a longer drawn out version of how the Able Sister's backstory gets told to you.) I just think there's SO much more potential that they're missing out on by keeping 99% of the game super happy and cheerful 24/7. As well as not giving the villagers any real depth. I don't mean that they should make them quite as standoff-ish as they were in the original N64/GC games. But, just less happy all the time, I dunno. Give me some damn drama once in a while. REALISTICALLY, what I'd want from villagers in an AC game, is that they don't feel like generic nothing NPCs. I want them to feel like real, living, breathing people (animals?). I want them to have ups and downs. I want them to get into it with each other sometimes. I want them to have problems and flaws. For me, it loses some fun when I KNOW nothing bad can happen to anyone, ever. At worst, someone's a little upset because "Oh, I bought TWO of this item, and now I don't know what to do with it! Oh I know, HAVE A GIFT!". Like... ehhhhh. Like, just BE MAD AT ME. I built a ramp right in front of your house? Be pissed off about it! I moved your house to the other side of the island on the edge of a shitty cliff? Get mad. I put your house all by itself away from everyone else? Get lonely and depressed. Like, give the villagers some realistic depth and emotion and personalities. I'm not one of those people that play AC to collect "the cutest villagers". I'm fine with any villager I get, so long as they aren't a copy/paste cardboard cutout like everyone else. -- "He's bitter about it! That's very different than what you'd expect from Animal Crossing." It is. I don't expect villagers to have emotions at this point. But it's what the game USED to have, and it's what I want in the next game. -- I can relate a bit to the "loved ones played the game" thing. I still have a Donkey Kong Country 3 cartridge for GBA that has my late dad's save file on it. Can't bring myself to erase it, so I just keep re-erasing the other two and playing those.
I'm so very sorry about your losses. I have never lost a very close relative or close friend before, but one person I really liked and looked up to died about a year ago. I hope you're coping well, I can't imagine losing my sister. Stay safe and happy :(
there's also a few dialogues I came across while talking to Hazel in New Horizons. she asked me how was the landscape in my head and since I wasn't okay, I said it was dark. she then asked if I was okay and told me that it'll get better, and to shelter from the rain while it passes. she even asked me once if I've eaten today, and when I told her no, she said that it's not good, that I won't feel good if I don't eat something and that I can come to her house to eat ! she's my favourite and one of my comfort characters ever since !
I feel like Ankha, Freya, Ellie, and Mathilda might have asked me similar things as well. I find that the thing about the Snooties (Ankha, Freya, and Mathilda) is that while they might ACT rude on the surface, they really DO care about you... and then there's Ellie being a Normal, and i don't know what's up with her sometimes.
A great part of what gives Animal Crossing its charm is these moments where the world cuts a bit deeper and it’s not simply perfect 24/7. Glad you highlighted a bunch in this video!
That part of the movie when Margie moved away made me cry because... I loved Margie and still do but I felt terrible for Ai. Her best friend moving away. Nothing in life is more painful than seeing your favourite villager move away... Unless you have there amiibo card! YYYEEEEEAAAAAHHHH!!!!
I don’t have my original GC save but I do have the WW cartridge that my late great grandmother got me when it came out. I guard that little piece of plastic like it’s a priceless family heirloom.
Good video, I really liked what you said about it being a time capsule at the end of the video. I just found your channel 2 days ago and am binge-watching your videos lol. Thanks for the great content 🎉
Damn, this made me remember when my best friend moved away when I was 11. I'm not sure how, as I can't remember if we used wifi or what, But months after I found a message in a bottle from her, it read something like: "Dear Kass, I don't know if you'll ever see this, but I miss you." Made me bawl my eyes out.
In New Leaf there is a certificate in Labelle's shop with Gracie's pattern on the ribbon. So Labelle actually got Gracie's Approval... Which is something..
I started with Wild World 16 years ago and never really had friends to play it with. After getting New Leaf and meeting my spouse, that changed and I remember how we used to travel over to the island and play some of the mini games together. What a pity that they don't have something like this in New Horizons anymore. Perhaps Minecraft is the game I have the most 'multiplayer' memories with, because nowadays I feel this dread when playing local without anyone and that the game is really lacking something and it translates the feeling of someone being stranded on an isolated world well. The villagers for example being closest to being able to communicate with you, but not quite, which is making you feel even more lonely. Animal Crossing is better in this regard, because (despite the ACNH lacking villager dialogue) there is still someone you can talk to. Especially Blathers, who has a lot of unique dialogue only for the fossils, fish, insects and artworks.
i didnt even know you could build snowmen in wild world when I used to play it so I would always just make the snowballs really big and push them into the rivers to watch them melt and float away
Don’t forget if you have the reset center built and you get the Tom Nook message at the end of restart there is a rare message between Tom Nook Isabel and Resetti and they go back and forth I don’t remember what exactly but I had this once after I got the game reset by accident.
Can I just say first I Just discovered your channel and your content is incredible! Second the fact that you had Kitty move out on you when I first started playing Animal Crossing she did the same to me and it broke my heart! Also I related so hard to what you were saying about how Animal Crossing is a franchise that can help you keep someone’s memory alive. I also lost my sister and we would play together all the time. On my island in ACNH I have a memorial dedicated to her that when I’m feeling sad or miss her I go and sit at and reflect. I’m so sorry you lost your brother and good friend. Animal Crossing definitely can help us escape and keep memories alive ❤
I couldn’t come up with any other comment other than my umbrella sympathy. I a, so sorry about your loss of your brother and your friend. Though many over look these things, I am so sorry. My words may not be much, and they may not help- but know that we understand.
when i was a kid my gamecube AC was one of my favorite games. i think i'll dig it out of my closet and play it soon. ACNL on the 3ds was when i was in middle school (themed around an embarrassing character) and i had my first relationship, which was unfortunately long distance. we never met in person, but we'd visit each other on ACNL all the time. we broke up after a few years, but i hope they're doing well, and i wonder if ACNL ever brings back good memories for them too.
Imagine there’s a future Easter egg where you find an island with lots of missing balls on the shore… Also this video did make me cry, this game has always been such a blessing in all honesty (:
i really wanted one of my villagers to move out so my dreamie could come in but i’ve grown such an attachment to all of them that i don’t want them to move away 😭
I remember reading the 2nd letter that was shown in wild world when i would play it back in the day, (well more like 8 years ago) i thought at the time that it was another player and i would send a happy message in a bottle to that "person"
whenever there's a lazy villager, he will say oh this island isn't real back in new horizons and than it will be played for laughs and i thought that was a dark and scary moment and they hate wind chimes.
Rasher telling me no one talked to him because his face was scary when I was really little and had just decided I didn’t like him cause his face was scary kinda broke my tiny heart.
I used to play New Leaf religiously, I absolutely loved it. I eventually abandoned my town after my favorite villager, Hans, moved away after I was away for a week.. it never felt the same afterwards and I actually cried. I've tried to find him in New Horizons since I got the game last year, but with no luck. 😢
I originally got New Leaf when I was in the hospital with leukemia. At the end when you mentioned it being an escape, I realized just how much that experience impacted my view of New Leaf, and how comforting it is to me. It’s where so much of my love for these games come from. When I’m feeling stressed, my first thought is to play Animal Crossing. It does make me a little sad that the dialogue in New Horizons is less…fleshed out compared to New Leaf, and there’s less interaction with Villagers, but to me, I still love them, because they were there for me in one the worst moments a person can have.
When I finally got ahold of a switch, all of my friends moved on to other games.. so I never got to have that community feeling. 😢 I literally bought a switch to play with them.
This one isn’t as relevant since it’s more of my personal experience, but when I was in sixth grade, I saved up money to buy Animal Crossing Wild World. It was fun times, and of course with unfortunate life lessons like why I shouldn’t toy around with time travel (I just wanted to collect all the K.K. Slider songs) But the one thing that haunts me the most weirdly enough, is how much of a jerk to poor Resetti. I used to purposely turn on the game and turn off without saving just to see Resetti’s hotheadedness, just for laughs. Sure there was that one time I had to watch with agony as a balloon with a present fly away during a lecture… but the real pain was a few years later when I eventually learned to sympathize with many fictional characters in general. Realizing how much of an a🐬hole I was to characters like Resetti, I feel really bad to this day about what I did. I wish I could just apologize to him in-person… #ResettiDeservesBetter
I've always considered Animal Crossing to be a Horror Game. It doesn't have jump scares, but it is so freakishly dark and creepy. Things like the Gyroids give the game an otherworldly feel.
I’ve only played Acnh and I’ve had a few sad experiences such as the snowfall “melting” and villagers moving out but by far the most sad thing is MY CRIPPLING DEBT ok ok seriously tho the most sad thing I’ve had happen is the eshop closing the day I was ready to buy new leaf
I recently deleted my island since I didn’t remember anything from new horizons since I last played it 2 years ago I’ve always hated the fact that they never made us do a second island or something since I didn’t want to delete my first island but also I just wanted to start over
I first started playing New Horizons with my sister - initially, I played with her character, but eventually made a character of my own After I got my own switch and my sister saw how much fun I was having with my new island, she wanted to start over again too, so our island was to be deleted. The saddest part was having to leave behind the pet tarantula I kept in my bedroom. Luckily, Flick was visiting that day, and I sold my pet tarantula to him, but man, I was heartbroken. Even writing about it now, almost four years later, has tears streaking down my cheeks. I had less than a day to prepare. All that remains of that original island is a sofa, a post from my first character on my notice board and a singular imported orange tree, planted right next to my new house
Elijah I'm so so so sorry for your losses if my brother died I would cry every time I think about it because he and I play mario splatoon kirby etc. Games together (my brother is not dead just so you know)
I would be HEARTBROKEN if tammy moved away AFTER ALL THAT WE'VE BEEN THROUGH AFTER ALL THE GIFTS I GAVE U AFTER EVERYTHING I DID FOR U WHY DID U LEAVE (if u couldn't tell, tammy is 1 of my favorite villagers)
Its kinda sad how in new horizons they always ask you if they can leave instead of like the old games i thiught it was supposed to be a life simulator but they dont have any frre will to leave in the old ganes they left
I guess the reason Animal Crossing on the GameCube made deleting the town so hard and so creepy was just in case little kids didn’t understand what they were doing when wanting to start a new town. It certainly prevent kid me from deleting lol
One of my favorite villagers, Punchy, he keeps on telling me about how he thinks the world of Animal Crossing is fake and that everything he does ultimately is for the enjoyment of a complete stranger. This has happened to him twice on my island, and he always plays it off as a joke. But knowing that he gets freaked out by the fact that he wouldn’t be able to actually handle his reality being fake made me feel terrible for him. I think that was the most tragic Animal Crossing New Horizons moment for me was.
I had this happen with Stiches the bear!!!
My god… that’s deep
That happened with Anchovy for me
THAT HAPPENED TO ME! ZUCKER!!!! IM SCARED!
Welp he isn’t sentient anyway
I think this is why I will never delete my island on new horizons. I lost a friend suddenly who played with me during covid. I cried when one of my villages where "hey i haven't seen x for a while, hope they are okay" 😢
Same, happened with my fiancé
@@bassqueen41holy shit man, I’m sorry
That's rough :/ I am sorry
Lets keep on masking to help prevent further loss
Thats actually really sad.
The best thing to happen to me: I lost Beardo in animal crossing new leaf, and a couple days after he moved out, I found him in new horizons on the random islands and his line said "it was like destiny meeing you here" and it absolutely was.
I love Beardo ❤
Something similar happened to me. My brother and I had a town in New Leaf, and Katt was his favorite character (mine too) One day we went on, and she had moved out. We were so sad. But when I got New Horizons for my birthday... Guess who was one of the two characters joining me on the island? :) Katt lives very happily on our island now, still in our lives.
That's sweet 😊
Regarding the bottled message from the husband to his wife... I always thought the wife had died and he was trying to send her a message by tossing it into the sea because he couldn't just tell her directly anymore.
aww that is so sad
I went into Gloria's house yesterday and she told me "you can't choose your family, but you can choose your furniture. And really, that's what's important." Giiirl, who hurt you??😢
aww
:(
Her family, I'd venture to guess
As an alt kid whos parents suck: real
As a animal crossing veteran, I will tell you newer players that the ball going into the lake or ocean is way sadder than it seems.
You make a personal connection to it and watching it leave you, knowing its your fault... its sad man.... T-T
Personally as a kid i always just found it frustrating rather than sad
the utter joy of finding the ball in first place
In ACNH my snooty became so sad because of flowers. She came up to me and said what about the flowers, the flowers are all gone. She started crying and I felt so bad that I planted more flowers even though I didn't need more flowers. Also in NH my villagers will ask how come a visitor hasn't came back to visit them and they hope they come back soon. In NL my villagers often ask if I know anyone that would come to visit because new people are always great to have around. I feel bad because nobody really plays NL anymore so I can't bring in a visitor. I did enjoy Densel"s videos and binged the entire series. Thanks for the video.
Hi! I play New Leaf still! Idk if there's a way we can connect, but I would love to visit your guys if it would make them happier!
I also play NL, but sadly i cant connect with anyone, homebrewed 3ds and all that
I play new leaf :)
I play New Leaf too! And on my 2DS :D
Hey late to the thing, but online function is shutting down for New Leaf soon guys :(
btw, Isabelle in New Leaf only gets 1 hour of sleep each night, Out of the 24 hours in a day, she only gets to sleep 1 of those hours. It's a miracle she can still function as kind as she always is. Caffeine can only carry a sleep-lacking person so much
It's implied she pulls a lot of all nighters too
There's something about the Animal Crossing series that is so simple, yet so deep at the same time. This channel does a great job shining a light on it.
Real
I just wish the game itself would shine more light on it. Everything's just a tad TOO happy all the time in New Horizons. I want a bit of drama and stuff occasionally.
About towns being deleted in this franchise, I hear if your town you're deleting in New Leaf was successful enough of a town, after deleting the town, it's actually sold to Tom Nook, and he gives you Bells according to it's worth. I of course never did this myself. I'm too kind-hearted to delete my own town in any Animal Crossing game. And I'm too easy to cry over stuff that hurts me emotionally, even if the problem has nothing to do with me. Example: Someone I care about allot, is suffering emotionally.
EDIT: I continued to watch the video, and you already covered that thing from New Leaf. Welp, I made a worthless comment here then
Your comment isn’t useless! :)
I played NL when I was 13/14 & took the letters rlly seriously. I would reply to my villagers all the time and write to myself too. Anyways, I logged on recently last year (I'm in my 20s now) & one of my original villagers showed me a letter I sent them and I got so emotional because I was upset over a test. They then told me the classic line -- I treasure this letter and idk! I went and read the letters I saved from my exchanged w my villagers and idk when you said it was a time capsule I felt it. My teenage self was littered through the whole game -- the letters, the catch phrases, and Tangy asked me if my birthday wish from 2017 came true. It was so simple, I had wished to 'be happy.' After all those hours playing the game, it was like a letter to myself. Idk!!! I tried writing letters in NH, but the villagers don't acknowledge your text as much as they did in NL, it's weird !
Speaking of loss, after my dad passed from cancer in 2018 I was devastated. However when I got New Horizons, I noticed that I had a villager named Kevin as one of my starter villagers. He has the same name as my dad, so I kept him and was so happy. It felt like my dad was with me that day...
My grandmother played almost every version of Animal Crossing with me and my sister. She passed around the time that New Horizons came out, she never got to play it. I sent her pictures I'd take off the screen with my phone of my friend and I goofing off on my shiny new island, I really just wanted her to see it before she had to go. I know she would've loved it as much as the others. She was a min-maxer for money, just so she could give it all away to her grandkids that played with her because we all worked or had school and she had spare time.
I have an AC themed tattoo my friend drew for me with her name, so she's always with me.
Thanks for letting me share that. Have a great day every day ❤
There’s a line of dialogue in the first game that makes me sad these days. It’s one of the vignettes from K.K.:
“At some point in your childhood, you and your friends went outside to play together for the last time, and none of you knew it.”
I like how their "build a new town" dialogue basically implies that you're nuking the old town...
Cyrus seems like the kind of guy to hurt himself somewhat regularly lol, he gives off a slightly clueless and goofy vibe
A clumsy bad boy!
Wow… I never thought about how Phyllis was being treated at work now I probably will try not to judge villagers and special villagers so quickly
The "delete town" option in New Horizons is unsettling to me for some reason- Tom Nook explicitly says that his and the other residents' minds will be wiped of your existence. So does Tom know *when* his mind has been erased?
I also saw people talking about how Lazy villagers in New Horizons talk about the world being made-up for someone's entertainment, but then quickly disregarding that statement with a cheerful attitude. I don't want to be extreme, but is there lore where some characters know the existence of a higher being, AKA the player? Are the Lazy villagers aware, but then their minds are being wiped of these realizations? Again, Tom Nook mentions how memory wiping is a thing.
I also wonder if there's an in-universe explanation for other people having the same characters at the same time? Are the characters aware of these 'copies'?
Is the player seen as a higher being?
well Resseti is here, and he's well aware of how it's just a game and even knows that the player is from like, another world. In the gamecube game he says something similar to "huh? what do you mean it's just a game, it's not that bad? don't you realize how important this is? you can't just reset like that just because you want to go back in time!" I didn't exactly say it word by word, but in the original dialogue, it's said as if the player was actually saying this under their breath in the real world. And i mean just the concept of a character being aware of the saving and reseting mechanics really break the 4th wall and makes you question the universe of animal crossing
Please write a book on this lol
while not really sad or depressing, I remember once back in Wild World, I was visiting Elmer's house. And I was a kid at the time, probably about 13 or so. And I remember looking in his closet and seeing the text 'You saw something you weren't meant to see. Well, it's been nice knowing you!' and it freaked me out so much. I actually wrote a creepypasta based on that line of dialogue way back when. Since that day, I have never intentionally opened a villager's closet or w/e. for sure the freakiest thing that's happened to me in Animal Crossing.
Do you have the Creepypasta saved anywhere?That Creepypasta has amazing inspiration so I'm sure it's amazing!
@@KirbyWithPoyo I do have it saved on a flashdrive. I wrote it when I was about 13 years old, over a decade ago, and my writing has for sure improved since then. I'll be honest, I cringe looking back on it. It isn't my best work, but I keep it because it was a multiple-year project that shows some of my growth as a writer.
@@Alex_Silverpen May I ask if you can or have release(d) it?And if I could read it anywhere?Sounds like a cool creepypasta
@@Alex_Silverpen I'd love to read that!
@@Alex_SilverpenI would love to read that fr
When you mentioned the loss of a loved one I nearly cried. My mom didn't like video games mainly because she found them meaningless and caused her motion sickness, that was until 2020 and acnh releasing. It start with her keenly watching us play on the TV, then she'd occasionally agree to play one me or my siblings account for a few minutes, then she made her own account on the island. By her birthday a year after launch(11th of March, 2021) she was completely in love, so me and my sibling organised her an acnh switch, a island hand grip, and an acnh switch case. I also made her a cake that looked like the island on the loading screen. She loved that switch and played every day after work, her favourite villager was Eric and her disliked village was hipppo. She loved it so much and decided to get me a switch light of my own(I formally share) for my birthday 12 days later. She tragically died in December that year(2021), but at least she got to play the update, I like to think that was why the updates ended so unexpectedly, she loved brewster and visited him religiously(was a coffiholic irl). Acnh just means so much to me, it took months to even consider opening my island, but at this point I can play for the most part, dispite it being emotionally. I will ALWAYS think of her when I think of the and even more so when I see Eric. I try not to think about how her island mostly likely a weed fest now and that her villagers, especially her Eric must miss her too hell and back, possibly worse than me as she is what made them alive and real.
I’m so sorry about that. I’m glad you got to make memories over something you both loved while she was here. Don’t worry, you’ll see her again one day.
this was a beautiful story. I'm so heartbroken for you and your family but I'm so glad you have acnh to remind you of her in such a fun and positive way. I hope you are doing well and wish you and your family all the best. thank you for sharing this memory
I'm so sorry, my friend. May Jesus bless you and fill your heart with His peace. You must have a lot of good memories from Animal Crossing. I miss my grandfather, but one day I saw a photo of myself as a kid and a photo of him. Though I am a girl, we favored each other. I teared up but it also made me really happy. We carry those we love with us, always. 💕💖
I'm so glad you have memories of your mom. I'm so sorry for your loss. Your story was heartbreaking 😞. Rest in peace 🕊️. I bet Eric must've been heartbroken when he found out 😢. Much love!
Im crying at this I am so sorry
With the ball, it's worst when you're trying to kick it to a villager who strongly hinted that they wanted one for some reason. So you try to get it... only to find that there's a river in between, and the bridge is bowed and has no rails, so it's hard to get it across without it falling in the river.
If you have the Happy Home Paradise DLC, you can come across this one when talking to a Peppy villager. Apparently, you are the only one she trusts with MOST THINGS. While it's great that she feels she can trust you, it's sad that she doesn't have a better network of trustworthy friends. (Or she has such trust issues that even villagers who are completely trustworthy haven't earned it by her standards.
The very existence of cowhide rugs is kinda... I mean, mundane animals still exist alongside the sapient versions, so maybe it's one of them, but still, Tipper requires one in her vacation home...
i always had assumed the cowhide rug was fake, like how any leather clothes are all specifically pleather clothes, and all fur clothes are faux-fur
Sometimes in older games a letter from Mom would sound pretty sad to me. Idk if it was just how I read it or what though. I used to think your parents were divorced because sometimes I swear there would be a letter that was like "I saw your dad today" and idk, it just kinda implied it for me personally. I tried finding an image for it when I was talking to a friend but never found it so maybe I made it up or something :/
I've heard of a lot of dreams of animal crossing so maybe it was a dream you confused with real life.
@@KirbyWithPoyo Yeah no, wasn't a dream
I recall getting a letter like that too.
@@bricecube320 Oh thank you, I'm not the only one lol
Either the letter does exist and is just rare, or it's a weird mandela effect
Oh my gosh. Phyllis’ work struggles are a little too real. Nothing like that feeling of being trapped in a dead end job that layers heavy responsibility on you and offers little help despite promising to. Ugh, depressing.
2:51 Again Tom nook and sable never where in a relationship. Sable even says that she thought of tom nook as an older brother she never had. So Tom probably felt the same way too. Still, its sad what happens to their friendship after what Tom went through.
couldn’t have said it better myself, with what you said towards the ending. truly moving, and animal crossing really is more than just a game
I used to get bullied in school , when i was younger and animal crossing new leaf has always been a safe space for me since then. The way the villagers talked to me, seemed like real friends. Occasionally i still play that game , when i am feeling down. I feel like moe (my fav villager) has been there for me more than anyone else had.
Thank you for this video and thank you for sharing such private information with us. I hope they found a better place now
I've recently started a Animal crossing city folk town and i kept shuffling through the maps for like 2 days. When i finally got the right map i looked at the villagers. And i saw Punchy (my favorite) i've played for about a month staright but then he moved out. I made everything just so he didnt move out but it didnt work. And now knowing that i might never see him again is truly sad.
That reminds me of when Agent S moved out of my town in City Folk.
I legit haven’t seen her since.
THAT WAS 5 YEARS AGO.
I remember getting a letter from Goldie apologising for not saying goodbye, Goldie was a character I loved with all my heart so the fact she left without me knowing hurt like hell and I she’d tears. I never picked up the game ever again and abandoned my wild world town, I’m trying to get her on my new horizons island, so far, no luck but I did get a DIY bottle from her
i remember playing animal crossing new leaf and my starting town had Tangy, a character i grew to like a lot, and then I got Molly who i liked from chuggaconroy's gameplay, in fact im pretty sure she came to my town after i visited his island via the dream suite. I had to stop Molly and Tangy from thinking of moving out quite a bit.
eventually, i lost a lot of time and when i picked up New Leaf again Tangy was gone, but Molly had stuck around, that little duckling was a forever villager.
Eventually i completely lost the cartridge to my game, but since I grew out of animal crossing, I didn't mind.
But both Tangy and Molly have forever imprinted on me.
I know this was a year ago but why didn’t you just buy her amiibo card??? Thats a much easier way if i’m gonna be for real here
@@TiredChild101 That's a fair question, when I still played it I think I was just hoping to chance across her and having to order her amiibo card never really crossed my mind, also my 'trying' was just kind of 'if it happens then great, if not then not a big loss', I just remember my young DS days and being super upset about her leaving without even saying goodbye XD
@@ashessakura7518 ohh. I get it. I was just confused. Thanks for answering my question lol.
same, i quit my 500 hour nl town after bones moved out
A villager in my New Leaf town (I think it was Charlise? I don't remember,) brought up the topic of moving out 2 or 3 times.
Normally I would be okay with letting villagers leave from my town, but they stated that they were moving because they said something along the lines of "someone they knew was having turf wars where they are", and that they didn't know what that was, and thought it was about flinging turf at other people and thought it sounds like fun to move there.
....I wish I were joking. Needless to say, I told that villager not to move out
In the Game Cube version if you quit in the middle of visiting another town they will empty your pockets and turn your face into a Gyroid, also in Wild World if you time travel too far they will put a huge weed in your town that is hard to get rid of.
the rafflesia flower is in city folk and new leaf too, its from the town being overrun by weeds though not time travel (although they usually go together)
@@ankotchi Yeah, they had put one of those right next to a rock and it drove me crazy. I ended up deleting my town before I did any research on it. A decision I later regret.
I just wish the newer games actually showed MORE of this stuff. One thing I like about a life sim, is getting to learn about the other character's lives, backstories, and the drama between them and other characters. As well as those characters actually feeling like real people with emotions and realistic reactions to bad things happening and stuff. Bonus points if all of that is also effected by choices you made.
I love AC, don't get me wrong. And I love New Horizons all the same. But man, the constant permanent 'happy' vibe does get a bit old after a while. Just once I want a villager to get pissed off at another villager and smack them. Or insult you flat out to your face. Or just ragequit the island and leave without warning. I want drama once in a while. There's only so much cutesy permanently happy vibes one dude can take.
I think the Able Sister's story is probably the most "in your face" one, since you usually NEED to go to their shop and talk to them, to move along upgrades and get new items and stuff.
I'm really hoping the next AC game, or rumored 3.0 update (that I doubt), adjusts the villagers a bit. Raise the chance of them being a mood other than happy. Give them some less happy dialogue to say during those times. Those two minor changes alone would make the villagers so much more interesting. If you could just be walking along, see an angry villager, talk to them, and hear them complain about another villager. Or someone's upset and they go into this whole tragic backstory that you gradually get more info about (like a longer drawn out version of how the Able Sister's backstory gets told to you.) I just think there's SO much more potential that they're missing out on by keeping 99% of the game super happy and cheerful 24/7. As well as not giving the villagers any real depth. I don't mean that they should make them quite as standoff-ish as they were in the original N64/GC games. But, just less happy all the time, I dunno. Give me some damn drama once in a while.
REALISTICALLY, what I'd want from villagers in an AC game, is that they don't feel like generic nothing NPCs. I want them to feel like real, living, breathing people (animals?). I want them to have ups and downs. I want them to get into it with each other sometimes. I want them to have problems and flaws. For me, it loses some fun when I KNOW nothing bad can happen to anyone, ever. At worst, someone's a little upset because "Oh, I bought TWO of this item, and now I don't know what to do with it! Oh I know, HAVE A GIFT!". Like... ehhhhh. Like, just BE MAD AT ME. I built a ramp right in front of your house? Be pissed off about it! I moved your house to the other side of the island on the edge of a shitty cliff? Get mad. I put your house all by itself away from everyone else? Get lonely and depressed. Like, give the villagers some realistic depth and emotion and personalities. I'm not one of those people that play AC to collect "the cutest villagers". I'm fine with any villager I get, so long as they aren't a copy/paste cardboard cutout like everyone else.
--
"He's bitter about it! That's very different than what you'd expect from Animal Crossing." It is. I don't expect villagers to have emotions at this point. But it's what the game USED to have, and it's what I want in the next game.
--
I can relate a bit to the "loved ones played the game" thing. I still have a Donkey Kong Country 3 cartridge for GBA that has my late dad's save file on it. Can't bring myself to erase it, so I just keep re-erasing the other two and playing those.
I'm so very sorry about your losses. I have never lost a very close relative or close friend before, but one person I really liked and looked up to died about a year ago. I hope you're coping well, I can't imagine losing my sister. Stay safe and happy :(
Wanna know whats sad how little love people give Hopper even though he's one of the most interesting and well designed characters
there's also a few dialogues I came across while talking to Hazel in New Horizons. she asked me how was the landscape in my head and since I wasn't okay, I said it was dark. she then asked if I was okay and told me that it'll get better, and to shelter from the rain while it passes. she even asked me once if I've eaten today, and when I told her no, she said that it's not good, that I won't feel good if I don't eat something and that I can come to her house to eat ! she's my favourite and one of my comfort characters ever since !
I feel like Ankha, Freya, Ellie, and Mathilda might have asked me similar things as well. I find that the thing about the Snooties (Ankha, Freya, and Mathilda) is that while they might ACT rude on the surface, they really DO care about you... and then there's Ellie being a Normal, and i don't know what's up with her sometimes.
A great part of what gives Animal Crossing its charm is these moments where the world cuts a bit deeper and it’s not simply perfect 24/7. Glad you highlighted a bunch in this video!
That part of the movie when Margie moved away made me cry because... I loved Margie and still do but I felt terrible for Ai. Her best friend moving away. Nothing in life is more painful than seeing your favourite villager move away... Unless you have there amiibo card! YYYEEEEEAAAAAHHHH!!!!
I don’t have my original GC save but I do have the WW cartridge that my late great grandmother got me when it came out. I guard that little piece of plastic like it’s a priceless family heirloom.
Good video, I really liked what you said about it being a time capsule at the end of the video. I just found your channel 2 days ago and am binge-watching your videos lol. Thanks for the great content 🎉
I'm sorry for your losses, Elijah. Great video as always
Damn, this made me remember when my best friend moved away when I was 11.
I'm not sure how, as I can't remember if we used wifi or what,
But months after I found a message in a bottle from her, it read something like:
"Dear Kass, I don't know if you'll ever see this, but I miss you."
Made me bawl my eyes out.
In New Leaf there is a certificate in Labelle's shop with Gracie's pattern on the ribbon. So Labelle actually got Gracie's Approval... Which is something..
I started with Wild World 16 years ago and never really had friends to play it with. After getting New Leaf and meeting my spouse, that changed and I remember how we used to travel over to the island and play some of the mini games together. What a pity that they don't have something like this in New Horizons anymore.
Perhaps Minecraft is the game I have the most 'multiplayer' memories with, because nowadays I feel this dread when playing local without anyone and that the game is really lacking something and it translates the feeling of someone being stranded on an isolated world well. The villagers for example being closest to being able to communicate with you, but not quite, which is making you feel even more lonely.
Animal Crossing is better in this regard, because (despite the ACNH lacking villager dialogue) there is still someone you can talk to. Especially Blathers, who has a lot of unique dialogue only for the fossils, fish, insects and artworks.
i didnt even know you could build snowmen in wild world when I used to play it so I would always just make the snowballs really big and push them into the rivers to watch them melt and float away
I'm so sorry for your brother and friend.
Don’t forget if you have the reset center built and you get the Tom Nook message at the end of restart there is a rare message between Tom Nook Isabel and Resetti and they go back and forth I don’t remember what exactly but I had this once after I got the game reset by accident.
Can I just say first I
Just discovered your channel and your content is incredible!
Second the fact that you had Kitty move out on you when I first started playing Animal Crossing she did the same to me and it broke my heart! Also I related so hard to what you were saying about how Animal Crossing is a franchise that can help you keep someone’s memory alive. I also lost my sister and we would play together all the time. On my island in ACNH I have a memorial dedicated to her that when I’m feeling sad or miss her I go and sit at and reflect. I’m so sorry you lost your brother and good friend. Animal Crossing definitely can help us escape and keep memories alive ❤
Gamecube on needs to be put on switch, whether it's a remaster or just the old on it needs to be on there!
saaaaame like. i wanna replay ac gamecube so bad ive legit contemplated buying the console and disc off ebay
6:34 I remember Bob leaving my town on City Folk because I didn't give him a Grasshopper
Please don’t ever stop making videos you’re one of my favorite RUclipsrs
And this is why Isabelle became friends with Doomguy.
I couldn’t come up with any other comment other than my umbrella sympathy. I a, so sorry about your loss of your brother and your friend. Though many over look these things, I am so sorry. My words may not be much, and they may not help- but know that we understand.
when i was a kid my gamecube AC was one of my favorite games. i think i'll dig it out of my closet and play it soon.
ACNL on the 3ds was when i was in middle school (themed around an embarrassing character) and i had my first relationship, which was unfortunately long distance. we never met in person, but we'd visit each other on ACNL all the time. we broke up after a few years, but i hope they're doing well, and i wonder if ACNL ever brings back good memories for them too.
Imagine there’s a future Easter egg where you find an island with lots of missing balls on the shore…
Also this video did make me cry, this game has always been such a blessing in all honesty (:
i really wanted one of my villagers to move out so my dreamie could come in but i’ve grown such an attachment to all of them that i don’t want them to move away 😭
I remember reading the 2nd letter that was shown in wild world when i would play it back in the day, (well more like 8 years ago) i thought at the time that it was another player and i would send a happy message in a bottle to that "person"
It will make my heart hurt and break
whenever there's a lazy villager, he will say oh this island isn't real back in new horizons and than it will be played for laughs and i thought that was a dark and scary moment and they hate wind chimes.
i'm confused about that.
I’ve never taken that seriously. It’s just a random piece of dialogue that’s not meant to be taken seriously.
@@JZJ7777 yeah exactly
I need to boot up my old Wild World cartriage sometime. I remember I saved a bunch of weird letters and bottle messages at the post office on there...
Rasher telling me no one talked to him because his face was scary when I was really little and had just decided I didn’t like him cause his face was scary kinda broke my tiny heart.
I used to play New Leaf religiously, I absolutely loved it. I eventually abandoned my town after my favorite villager, Hans, moved away after I was away for a week.. it never felt the same afterwards and I actually cried. I've tried to find him in New Horizons since I got the game last year, but with no luck. 😢
Did anyone ever hear about that rumour where Phyllis could be found crying outside the town hall in city folk at 3am?
I originally got New Leaf when I was in the hospital with leukemia. At the end when you mentioned it being an escape, I realized just how much that experience impacted my view of New Leaf, and how comforting it is to me. It’s where so much of my love for these games come from.
When I’m feeling stressed, my first thought is to play Animal Crossing. It does make me a little sad that the dialogue in New Horizons is less…fleshed out compared to New Leaf, and there’s less interaction with Villagers, but to me, I still love them, because they were there for me in one the worst moments a person can have.
I can relate I got new leaf while doing my 2 nd round of chemo for my retinoblastoma while waiting in the hospital newleaf helped me calm down
dang animal crossing is 22 years old
I lost so many people during the last few years, I actually made a graveyard on my island. I place items next to the headstones to remind me of them.
When I finally got ahold of a switch, all of my friends moved on to other games.. so I never got to have that community feeling. 😢 I literally bought a switch to play with them.
I remember seeing that video from densle about resetting and i never thought the same about resetting again
This one isn’t as relevant since it’s more of my personal experience, but when I was in sixth grade, I saved up money to buy Animal Crossing Wild World. It was fun times, and of course with unfortunate life lessons like why I shouldn’t toy around with time travel (I just wanted to collect all the K.K. Slider songs)
But the one thing that haunts me the most weirdly enough, is how much of a jerk to poor Resetti.
I used to purposely turn on the game and turn off without saving just to see Resetti’s hotheadedness, just for laughs. Sure there was that one time I had to watch with agony as a balloon with a present fly away during a lecture… but the real pain was a few years later when I eventually learned to sympathize with many fictional characters in general. Realizing how much of an a🐬hole I was to characters like Resetti, I feel really bad to this day about what I did.
I wish I could just apologize to him in-person…
#ResettiDeservesBetter
I lost Apollo a long time ago. I recently got him back, but i haven't seen Wolfgang since 2006...
I think I i saw a video that Densle did about time traveling and I found it very unsettling. It was good.
I've always considered Animal Crossing to be a Horror Game. It doesn't have jump scares, but it is so freakishly dark and creepy. Things like the Gyroids give the game an otherworldly feel.
This reminds me of how some parts of Kirby Games feel like horror games like the zero boss from Dreamland three
Gyroids are based on haniwa, a type of ancient Japanese burial objects. Makes it even creepier.
16:50 Almost cried here...😔😌
Fun fact: That line at 14:54 is a reference to Rusty’s Real Deal Baseball
I’ve only played Acnh and I’ve had a few sad experiences such as the snowfall “melting” and villagers moving out but by far the most sad thing is MY CRIPPLING DEBT ok ok seriously tho the most sad thing I’ve had happen is the eshop closing the day I was ready to buy new leaf
I recently deleted my island since I didn’t remember anything from new horizons since I last played it 2 years ago I’ve always hated the fact that they never made us do a second island or something since I didn’t want to delete my first island but also I just wanted to start over
I had 3 villagers leaving my island and I like them it was sad (goose, reene and analisa) I was really sad
I used a entire room of my home to honor the villagers whom left
I Love Your Videos So Much! Your Videos Always Make My Day!
The Nontendo 4ds is in Rusty's real deal baseball
The reese and Cyrus story isn't as bad as Loraine and George from back to the future, her dad hit him...while he was peeping on a lady so there's that
Coco left without telling you
Yeah.... That happened to me. And then I got a stupid pink bear cub that refused to leave until a couple of days ago. I don't like saying his name.
@@Twinklethefox9022 barold?
2:23 me too Snowman, me too
I first started playing New Horizons with my sister - initially, I played with her character, but eventually made a character of my own
After I got my own switch and my sister saw how much fun I was having with my new island, she wanted to start over again too, so our island was to be deleted. The saddest part was having to leave behind the pet tarantula I kept in my bedroom. Luckily, Flick was visiting that day, and I sold my pet tarantula to him, but man, I was heartbroken. Even writing about it now, almost four years later, has tears streaking down my cheeks. I had less than a day to prepare.
All that remains of that original island is a sofa, a post from my first character on my notice board and a singular imported orange tree, planted right next to my new house
Phyllis is literally how an irl mail person thinks. Trust me.
The saddest part of animal crossing new leaf is when you delete your town, save data and isabel says I hope we meet again someday😢😢😢😢😢
100 days AC New Leaf
I was sad when deidrei moved away but when i realized i killed her i was calling myself a murderer
Nothing makes me sadder than the passage of time.
Elijah I'm so so so sorry for your losses if my brother died I would cry every time I think about it because he and I play mario splatoon kirby etc. Games together (my brother is not dead just so you know)
Imagine your favourite game cube villager just moves away. Me ill be crying for days😭
I remember getting that second bottle letter in Wild World as a kid. Freaked me out a bit.
my mum played on my island once and one of my villagers said "its nice having x around, they remind me of you, maybe it's the walk?"
I would be HEARTBROKEN if tammy moved away
AFTER ALL THAT WE'VE BEEN THROUGH
AFTER ALL THE GIFTS I GAVE U
AFTER EVERYTHING I DID FOR U
WHY
DID
U
LEAVE
(if u couldn't tell, tammy is 1 of my favorite villagers)
I feel like isabelle and miss pauling should have a get-together.
If it wasn't for tom nook I'd probably still have one of my older new leaf save files
I regret many things
Sorry for your losses man ❤
Its kinda sad how in new horizons they always ask you if they can leave instead of like the old games i thiught it was supposed to be a life simulator but they dont have any frre will to leave in the old ganes they left
Tom nook and the nooklings are tomanooki raccoon spirits of japan
Tanuki. ;)
Me too, my favourite villager is Tabby I haven't the chance to show him around my house 😢
when there light,there also dark
I guess the reason Animal Crossing on the GameCube made deleting the town so hard and so creepy was just in case little kids didn’t understand what they were doing when wanting to start a new town. It certainly prevent kid me from deleting lol
