this is a good game. i have oranges but also pears and apples growing! and coconuts.
given the amount of crafting this game wants you to do, the sluggishness of the ui and actions is not very fun. also tool durability with no hints as to how long before tools pop is also extremely Not Good. but the game is good. ____________________ (Lv 255 with 266901689 EXP) |
I play with my wife, too, and I think that's been a detriment to me playing. She's doing such amazing things with our island (It doesn't hurt that she's not working currently and I am) so I feel less inclined to do the things I would normally be doing. She's breeding our flowers, so I don't need to do that, she's giving our villagers cool and/or stupid stuff. So a lot of the stuff I would be doing is taken care of for me.
And to top it off,(And this is the bigger issue with me not playing anymore) I kind of hate all the furniture in the game. Every time I upgrade my house, I struggle with what I'm going to put in it, because there just aren't that many furniture sets, compared to, say, New Leaf. And those that exist are so boring and mundane.
It sucks because I've got three of my all time favorite villagers, but I still can't bring myself to care about this game. I think the main culprit is the DIY mechanic. They invested so much in it, that they took away everything that was interesting if it would compete with DIY. I don't like any of the chairs, I hate all of the tables, I'm totally uninterested in almost everything in this game. I tried with the wedding thing, i thought that would be fun, but it really isn't. It's so frustrating trying to set up a cute wedding scene, only to be reminded that there is no good furniture in this game.
With the mechanics involved, this really should be my favorite Animal Crossing game, but it's just not. I want to like it, but I find that I can't.
