    yeah, I never get it when people are like "Not every game has to be able to last hundreds of hours" like what? I don't have the money to buy a bunch of games, when I buy a game I need it to last hundreds to thousands of hours lol, games like acnh are perfect. I hate it when people talk about how this game should have been more restrictive and less on decorating, the decorating adds so much play time! the older games look like you'd have to keep resetting repeatedly to get time out of them

    I have never used the online feature for anything other than downloading path designs and eyebrow designs and visiting my grown kids island as they live on their own. I always assumed most are not paying monthly for online features, so its eye opening watching creators say how grindy the game suddenly feels when they play the game like I do. I knew they never got nook miles tickets for hunts by grinding, but I didnt consider how much nintendo online changed their gameplay. Fair play, but the grind for materials is normal for anyone not able to afford monthly subscription costs (nintendo online) or dlc.

      I used to have nintendo online family subscription. But since canceing it, it really does feel more of a challenge. And honestly.. I love it! Before, I got so bored when everything was easily at my fingertips. Now, it feels like I'm achieving something. ❤😊

    Hey! I just started playing animal crossing, like five days ago! This video and many of your others have been very helpful to me learning about things I wouldn’t have otherwise found out about. It’s such an interesting experience to be SO new to such an established game, where videos are like “as we all know blah blah blah” and I’m like, “yeah… totally,” *aggressively takes notes* live villagers! Everyone talks about getting rid of villagers and how frustrating it is and I’m like “why would you want to do that?” And then I got Ursula and I find her insufferable. Anyhoot, to answer your question about people still playing, I play every day so far right after work because it makes me feel like a kid again I can see now why everyone got so into it during such a harsh time because I had no idea how badly I needed this silly talking animal game to break up the harsh moments of chaotic stressful adult life.

    I still have my island from 2020, and while I have done a little terraforming to smooth out some edges, it's largely the way it was when I started. (How was that four years ago?? What did covid do to my sense of time??) I can't wait to settle in and watch this whole thing! Don't mind me, just gonna go get my switch...

    @lauemiands 5 місяців тому +8

    The island is beautiful! I love to watch. I actually play every day. I think that is what is missing from this play through, you're only decorating and this is why you have so little money. Decorating is only one part of the game and sometimes I think the decorating gets in the way of playing the game. Decorating is fun, I totally agree, the items are awesome.

  • @Pixie_beans
    @Pixie_beans 3 місяці тому +7

    I personally don’t really consider the paths to really be part of the terraforming, it felt like limiting yourself on the paths AND on the custom designs wasn’t really fair? I feel like one or the other would have been more balanced.

    I just started playing for the first time and I’ve already quite easily crafted tools and their replacements. I don’t understand paying for them. It’s so easy to get branches. Seriously, I’ve only actually logged in four times. I also don’t understand why fishing would be difficult for anyone. It’s so much easier than fishing in Stardew Valley. I paid my moving fee my first log in and got my house by the third log in. I got thr museum built by the second log in. Am I missing something? Sure, a lot of it is a
    grind but I’m figuring once you get established there won’t be as much grinding to do.

    I, personally, like having one island per switch. With some of the islands I create I need to have multiple playable characters. Maybe, in the future, there could be an option of would you like to join player one's island or start your own.
