She could play a round of survival for weeks and she also maxed out her money earned in the game.

    I adore New Horizons, however he makes really valid points about the game's flaws.
    One thing that *really* brings me down is the fact there's little to no way to interact with other players, mini-games, interactive expressions, interactive objects, you can use to have fun with your friends, that's what this game desperately needs, hopefully the updates made to this game will increase interactivity, it would be incredible.

      @@mr.frenzy7304 "to me" being the qualifier there. I don't like call of duty, I find them bland and boring, so should I ask the devs to make the guns swords instead? For me that is.
      Animal crossing is a slow burn, and I completely understand why some people will never get into the series, but asking the devs change things you find bland and boring is just kinda... Pointless.
      That said, it could totally stand for some QoL tweaks, as mentioned in the video, so I agree with the reviewer there, but you specifically talk about tweaking gameplay, and (depending what you meant by that) that would be a huge no for me. Could they ADD to the gameplay? Sure! But don't change the fundamentals.
      AC has always been about playing it your way, so if you can't find fun things to do with the multiplayer as it is, then maybe it's you (not YOU specifically) that isn't fun, and not the game.
      I had my sister, her bf, my niece come to my island for Easter and made a fun mini game for us to play, all using what's readily available in the game. Would a premade mini game have been fun? Yeah, sure, but for how long?

      Part of me wonders what everyone would think of the game if we weren’t in lockdown and had nothing better to do.

Granted, "ba ba" assumed an awful lot here, he/she assumed they weren't being safe, they didn't live in the same house, etc. Acting like they knew them.

      I’m a big fan of animal crossing but this one just feels like there isn’t anything to do but the core gameplay loop. The island tours are barren compared to the island in new leaf, and there aren’t mini games to play with friends anymore. Whenever I play with friends, I just show up, buy from their shops and leave

    I bought this game for my wife. She had never played an Animal Crossing game before. She loved it so much she bought her own Switch and another copy of the game. I decided to give it a go since it was on my Switch anyway. I got hooked. I can't explain why I love this game, but I play for 4-6 hours daily, minimum. Gotta say though, I wholeheartedly agree with every single thing you were nitpicking about. They all drive me insane and I complain about them regularly.

      @CarlyKpdx I think if enough people complain they might fix some of the minor QOL issues or add more activities for multiplayer. In the previous game New Leaf there was an island called Tortimer's Island that had minigames, I don't see why they can't add those. I haven't played New Leaf in years but I remember they were similar to how the fishing tourney and bug off work in this game where you could compete to see who could catch the most fish/bugs in a set amount of time, things like that.

    My wife and I actually really enjoy playing on the same island. We get to pool our resources and ideas together to make our island awesome, and we still have our own spaces (houses/yards) to express ourselves as individuals. There are money-rocks and shiny spots every day for each of us, and we simply share things like fruits and fossils. We work together on decisions like who we'll invite to our island, how we'll build our town, etc., and we get to share the workload rather than grinding endless hours on our own. This is the most fun we've had in a video game together!
    With that being said, I definitely agree that there are many quality-of-life improvements to be made in the game. Crafting and the dialogue often feel sluggish, and we find ourselves mashing B through our characters' frequent inner-monologue. I think the game could feel a lot more fluid without sacrificing the Animal Crossing's unique, lovable personality.
