I have bought the game. Haven't played it yet though.

There will presumably be updates at some point. All that turnip chat though lads. There's more to island life than money.

Turnip stocks are SERIOUS business. The future of my island is at fate here!

I spent the afternoon searching for a sturgeon and a stringfish after I read they'd be buggering off until later in the year as of the start of April. It was a cosy time and it was really soothing. In other news, my Resident Services is due for refurbishing tomorrow!

One thing I want to try and avoid this time around is stressing over catching the stuff before it vanishes for the year. Wasn't fun in New Leaf.

If I missed it, I missed it, but I was chatting to my brother for the first time in a wee while whilst we both hunted for some rare fish, so actually catching those fish was just a nice bonus to coincide with catching up with him. Smile

The island of Llandfyl has been populated! I have one jock and one female villager. They were completely different to The Lady's and said exactly the same things. I really hate this aspect of the series.

We both have pears, which is bobbins; and having caught one tarantula the next two I met knocked me out. Did nab a wasp on my first try though.

I need to keep this in mind, there were two particularly tough fish to catch that I didn't have by the evening of the 30th, managed to get one that evening but I got way too caught up looking for the other one the next day and it was only when I relaxed and carried on playing normally that I got it. In some aspects seeing this all over the internet is a bit damaging because it makes me question what I'm doing on the game and that's completely not the point of it.

My partner caught some rare fish that I didn't have the other day. The way I've been managing this is to see what times they're available, and then make an effort to fish there more often but not to grid excessively.

I think I managed to hook all of the rare things in March, but I'm less worried about having everything in the museum than just making it look nicely populated; I don't much like seeing empty tanks Sad

I... don't mind the egg fish... or the eggs in general, although I understand a lot of people don't share that opinion. Maybe I'd be more annoyed if I was desperate for wood ( Cheeky ) but I'm not bothered about racing through the game. For people who play the game a lot it's worth remembering that the events need to accommodate people who might not log in every day, or who only play for an hour a day.

I've enjoyed seeing the new wildlife popping out and the change in aesthetics. Additionally, there have been sightings of CJ, Kicks and more over on my island which has added some nice variety.

I'm at a stage in the game where I need to up my island appeal factor up to 3 stars. I don't have much of a plan for how I want things to turn out so I'm just dropping stuff all over the show. I'm looking forward to eventually getting the teraforming kits though.

I actually had my first villager request to leave yesterday - to which I said no because I don't have a full island yet. But next time I plan to let anyone who wants to move on do so. I like the lottery of seeing who turns up.

That’s a fortnight that New Horizons has been out now. Is it too soon to put this in the conversation as being one of the best games ever?

IMO yes. Animal Crossing is a game you play for months. The question is whether it'll keep that appeal for long enough, surely.

I should have a full island tomorrow and hoping that puts me to 3/5 Stars then I can get KK to come as at the moment I'm 2/5 stars with Isabelle just telling me I need my flowers when I have a huge patch of them.

I want to get KK maybe do a few other things, after that I may do a bit of review and what my opinion is in the last game I didn't finish thread, which always seems to be a negative thread but a few games I can think off be it ACNH, FIFA, APEX, SMASH to name a few don't have endings to be last game I finished thread.

Technically having K.K. perform is completing it because you get the credits, so I've completed it as of today, shite game, only lasted 2 weeks 0/10.

I've let my house take a back seat for now, I know I won't get all the furniture to match nicely and fill up a big house so all my money is going on improving the island. Still need to get a few more bridges in and I'm in the process of moving buildings about to get everything in a nice order, then I'll look at putting in patterns and furniture to jazz it up.

1/2) It would've been my sister's wedding on Saturday; however a certain pandemic has put pay to that for the time being (currently this time next year apparently). But they've managed to see the funny side of things (as well as, of course, the good side of things in that people won't be passing round diseases as much hopefully) and mocked up a series of official-looking wedding photos in Animal Crossing. They're not universally available to see on Facebook so I can't just link them, but I'll try and share them with you somehow. Luckily a tiara ended up in my Able Sisters that morning. Also Muss thanks for the applause!

2/2) This is the only game where I've thought "wow, I wonder what cool clothes I can design?!". I don't know why, I'm now obsessed with designing hoodies with obscure video game characters on them. I guess I should probably get a Redbubble account.

Oh also, for everyone who was following the Football Manager thread last year:

Your island is an absolute banger, Jimbob Thumbs Up!

I too dabbled in the shirt designer, but all I've created is monstrous Weedles, which my villagers have started donning like some sort of cult. On the plus side, my island is starting to look a lot nicer now. I've been able to unlock the teraforming tools, so I've put some dirt roads around the place. I really dig the sparsely populated forest island vibe so I want to keep things fairly minimalist, but I've been enjoying pottering around. Plan to do so whenever there isn't an NPC to keep me occupied. I have plans for moving the home and things exactly where I want them, and plans for a zen garden too.

How have folks been finding the villagers? I've been fortunate enough to listen in on a few villager-villager conversations, they're actually quite funny. One of my girlfriend's villagers gave her a treasure hunt mini-game this morning - has anyone else had anything like this happen?

Yeah I’ve had a treasure hunt, I also got a guess the colour of the next card from a camping lad.

I had a villager thinking about leaving yesterday but it wasn’t one of my crowds so no deal...

I've now got a full island and did have Biff ask to leave but told him to stay. I'm still two stars though, with Isabelle still saying more flowers.

I'm still waiting on KK to turn up - seemingly I need more in the way of infrastructure, so that means my turnip money will be going on inclines and bridges once I see a return on that.

I'm nearly finished with all the Bunny Day recipes too - I had no idea slingshots could break until this event came around!

I'm waiting for K.K as well, my issue is I don't think Isabelle knows what she wants, I've got all the flowers and trees but she still wants more, and then wants some gone

Big aww at that and at other ANCH wedding stuff I've seen. I can't imagine how rubbish it must be to have your wedding cancelled by all this gubbins - hopefully ACNH is providing these poor folks some respite.

I'm waaaaaaay behind y'all. Just got my first house expansion, and now some asshats are demanding fully furnished homes. Most of you probably know by now that I resent my fellow villagers' existence: this is beyond the pale.

Meanwhile I ate one of my turnips by mistake, and The Lady found Spider Island. We're having opposite financial situations.

Three weeks in, and it sounds like we’re all enjoying ourselves on our islands.

I’ve had a lot of happy times with the Animal Crossing games, spending practically every day of the calendar year on the GameCube, Wii and 3DS versions. I’d have easily topped five hundred hours on the GameCube one, some of my fondest gaming memories are with that game. I wasn’t up for restarting all over again on DS, so I never got into that in the same way. The Wii version wasn’t the reimagining the series needed, but it remained an endearing game. New Leaf on 3DS was just bigger, bolder and better to Let’s Go To The City in every way, an excellent game.

With all that time spent on the series already, I honestly wasn’t expecting New Horizons to rekindle my energy and enthusiasm for Animal Crossing like it has done. Lockdown has undoubtedly been a contributing factor, but I’m just wanting to spend all my gaming time on my island. That’s not necessarily to complete the game, but just because I love New Horizons so much.

Aye, I'm really enjoying making this part of my daily routine and I've enjoyed having a daily loop of sorts on my island - picking fruit, digging up fossils, chatting to the villagers and making small improvements to my island as I go. Really enjoying this. Smile
