>drops tomorrow nightIs your island ready? Will you be getting to Switch 2 upgrade?
>>730763238nintento be like "pay again to play an old game"
>>730763238>tothe the the the the>>730763352the update is free
>>730763238looking forward to resetti cleaning up my vast flower fields
>>730763238>drops tomorrow nightSource? I thought it was Thursday morning
what are the chances the Switch 2 version will fix the egregious lag issues?
>>730763352You can't afford $5?
>>730763238>Decides to drop an update nearly six years after launch>Completely avoids fixing the dozens of very obvious and simple to address problems the game has had since launchAre they just convinced what they made was perfect? Why are they like this?
>doesn't do a single thing to make terraforming on your island not take a fucking eternityNo thanks
>>730764480>dozens of very obvious and simple to address problemssuch as?
>>730764350>egregious lag issueswhen are these lag issues present? The sw2 edition is supposed to improve load times significantly
>>730764601No weight gain elements for one.
>>730764547Is there terra forming in the DLC? I know the DLC had streamlined island decorating and pathing
>>730764670>when are these lag issues presentNTA but an island can lag while you're just walking around if you have too many water features, custom designs, and/or objects that move in the wind. Very common with dream towns.
We are not getting a fucking thing for $5.
>>730764865There's an island you can terraform with friends, but they have yet to implement the HH style terraforming to the main game.
>>730764902Damn, I didn't know that. Probably because my town is super basic.
>>730764956wdym? we are getting 4k res and better load times
>>730764601>villager dialogue being buried under the mountain of repeat context sensitive prompts and tutorials repeated every day>people arriving on islands still takes forever>pop in despite how small the island isDid they even say if this update fixes the framerate?
I'm still playing on switch despite having switch 2 because I'm not giving up my hacks for 4k.
>>730765151They mentioned faster load times on the switch 2 version
>>730764601>Skipping Isabelle's daily announcements>Buying more than five customization kits at a time when some items require 50>A text search function in your storage>Craft multiple items at once (fish bait)>Increase max number of bridges and ramps>Option to permanently remove gifted clothing items from a villager's wardrobe.I don't know why you're playing devil's advocate on this.
>>730765340>faster load timesGood, but I was asking about the framerate
>>730765341I was genuinely curious. I haven't played AC much since 2020
>>730765389Its still 30
>>730763238god I hope it doesn't tank performance on switch 1
This game is lame as shit. I regret playing it, now that I played the 3ds version. Hell, the gamecube version had nes games in it. Fucking nes games inside the game. Fucking awesome
>>730765008Even too many flowers can cause spikes. The game is very unoptimized.
>>730765497>the gamecube version had nes games in itthis update adds NES consoles to the game, but I get it. Old good, new bad.
>>730763238someone needs to explain to me how the update is different from the DLC, isnt it the same thing basically?
If nothing is done to address the horrendous join/disconnect process for online, the update is worthless.
>>730765623>this update adds NES consoles to the gameAnd they require a paid subscription to access them because they utilize NSO you fucking retard. Are you going to spend the entire thread defending a game you don't know anything about? They LITERALLY stated this in the trailer.
>>730765341>Craft multiple items at once (fish bait)didnt they show them doing this in the trailer for the update?
>>730763238are you all women?what the fuck happened to you people?do you play the sims and candy crush too?
>>730765878Uh oh, melty!
>>730765878>he doesn't have NSO but why?
>>730765623The retro consoles in New Horizons require you to have a paid account because they just open the NSO service
>>730765936They did. Its coming in the update>>730765992What are you referring to, vague nigger?
>>730766000>>730766012>ermm old good new bad amirite>new requires something old didn't>m-madOkay.
>>730765878>>730766067Do you retard really think people didn't know this already?
>>730766126It's obvious the person I was replying to didn't know.
>>730766126>multiple people ITT asking WHAT LAG and WHAT MISSING QOLjej/v/ is super retarded dude
>>730766110>I can't play boomerslop NES games that I'll turn on for all of five minutes before never touching them again?! game sucks>>730766179Its clear that you didn't even know about the NES consoles getting added from your first diary entry
I wish they just ported New Leaf to Wii U with better graphics while the console was still relevant instead of this
>>730766303Pick an argument and stick with it, you autistic grifter.
>>730766362>grifterLMAO
>>730766328Nope. Too bad. You and many others hated on New Leaf when it was new.
>>730766391I'm also surprised you can read.
>>730766416>You and many others hated on New LeafNo I didn't.
>people already confirmed incoming flights still pause for everyoneNice update. So glad they dropped Splatoon for five seconds to shit this out.
>>730765151>villager dialogue being buried under the mountain of repeat context sensitive prompts and tutorials repeated every dayThat was fixed 4 or 5 years ago.
>>730766416This is the case for every Nintendo series. The most vocal haters are always people that haven't supported the series in decades. Just look at every Zelda thread.
>>730766607It literally wasn't.
I haven't played NH since the game came out really, so I'm looking forward to replaying it.>tomorrow nightit drops at night time? the fuck?
>>730766391You lost this internet argument my mant. Independent observer
>>730766418keep the melty going anon! I'm here for it! Call me a grifter again that was really funny
>>730766607>New Horizon's awful villager dialogue was fixed when New Horizons came out
>>730765623back in the day. NES games came on cards.
>>730763238>is your island ready?TF you mean is the island ready? That shit's gettin' the boot and a fresh new island is on it's way! I may even pick a specific Villager I want that I'll reset for. I'm so fuckin ready to dive back in!
>>730766770real shit?
>>730766503>Nice updateIt's not even out yet
>>730766756>I'm here for it!I know. This kills a few minutes. I wonder which of us has the more stoic expression at the moment.
I'd pay $70 for a proper remake of the original Animal Crossing.Stop making this garbage and go back to the gold standard.
>>730766767One of the big issues is they updated the game for two years and it came out March 2020. I have no idea what that anon is talking about but you're a nitpicking dumbfuck.
>>730766818I thought about doing that, but I decided against it
>>730765341>Skipping Isabelle's daily announcementsThat was fixed in the 2021 update. She no longer speaks about herself and instead gives a hint about the daily visitor>Craft multiple items at once (fish bait)That's in the update already>Option to permanently remove gifted clothing items from a villager's wardrobeThat was part of the 2021 update again. You can remove the clothes a villager is currently wearing by reporting them to Isabelle
>no significant changes to main island>BUT HERE'S ANOTHER DLC ISLAND WITH NEW FEATURESwhy do they do this? the resort update made customizing exteriors actually not garbage
>>730766828>I wonder which of us has the more stoic expression at the momentThat is a hilarious thing to be thinking about when reading anonymous words online
>>730766928They should add holidays (or make them not dogshit) instead
>>730766841>gold standardThat would be Wild World
>>730766713>>730766767It was fixed in one of the updates of 2020. Context sensitive prompts and tutorials have now a much lower percentage to show up and are no longer given priority to show up first every day
>>730767069>introduced tube world>introduced grass degradation>removed real holidays and replaced them with made up bullshit like Smile DayFuck off
Should I pick the game up on switch 2 if I liked fantasy life but have never played an animal crossing game?
>>730767345You should emulate the gamecube one
>>730766841>remakeslopYou're part of the problem.
>>730767345You could always watch some videos about the game loop to see if it interests you. Don't do this >>730767383
>>730767401>removed basic features and added them later as DLC>lacking content>looks worseone could argue New Horizons is a New Leaf remake
>>730764350What lag issues?
>>730767484New Leaf didn't have terraforming or crafting
>>730767483He shouldn't try an entry for free to see what he enjoys about it?
>>730767571Wouldn't be a remake without shitty new gimmicks
>>730767583The gamecube game is too old and clunky. If he is dead set on emulating(ew), He should emulate New Horizons on Yuzu to get a real impression
>>730767490You basically have to decorate your island to the gills to get about 2/3 dropped frames or so.
>>730767483>don't play a game>go watch gameplay instead
>>730767648That logic would mean that every entry in the series is just a remake of the gamecube game
>>730767484Anon, you couldn't argue any of your points let alone being a new leaf remake.
>>730767702>>730767676
>>730766928The new island is for children to play on with their friends. If you're one of the 10 million adults who bought the game to pass time during the pandemic, there's not much here for you.
>>730767702>>730767583imagine playing uncslop
>>730767726that just confirms the series went to shit after the gamecube which is true
>>730763238No, the update trailer convinced me that this game is soulless. It became too self-conscious of what their demographic is, instead of being its own thing.
>>730767835Yep, it totally went to shit with the games that had things to do beyond collect.
>>730767814why are you acting like better terraforming and playing with friends are mutually exclusive? what point were you trying to make??
new super mario bros is just a remake of the nes game
>>730767864You literally just said nothing.
>the stupid phone game still has thrice the content of New Horizons no matter how many updates crawl outI hate this dev team so much.
>>730767923Let's take it further. Tlou is just a remake of a Simpson treehouse of horror skit.
>>730767962I bought the offline version of the phone game and still play it when I first wake up and my brain is fuzzy
>>730767962the phone game is free to play, of course it gets updates more frequently
>>730767879This but unironically.Living in a forest > dollhouse sim
>>730763238people still play this tedious crafting slop?
>>730768012Well, at least you admit you don't like the GC game.
>>730767962The mobile game legitimately has more soul
>>730768009The phone game has ended service and people paid $10 to play the offline version
>>730767180Literally nothing wrong with rolling log>b-but I LIKE having to wait a second to load in each acre and not being able to see under things!
>>730763238Convince me to restart my island and play again.
>>730767180>>removed real holidays and replaced them with made up bullshit like Smile DayThat would be the GC game.
i'm so fucking tired of animal crossing being left dead by the developers in terms of quality of life and features
>>730768279that's what I'm doing. I haven't played the game since 2020 so I think it's been enough time to start over and re-experience the game along with the new shit
>>730767938It's not a game anymore, it focus too much on decorating crap. What was the initial inspiration for animal crossing? Whatever that was, it's now forgotten. It focus too much on status and what they think girls want. It's data-driven instead of being made by an author.
>>730768279how long it takes to craft something
>>730768556>animal crossing>familythanks I haven’t laughed this hard in quite a while
>>730763238Influencers are going googoo gaga but its not that great an update. The new Nook resort I guess but its going to get old again quick
>>730768556>It's not a game anymore, it focus too much on decorating crapWell, yeah. A woman literally took over the series. She thought Resetti was too mean.
>>730768556>What was the initial inspiration for animal crossing?Decorating your home and yourself, that's why everything is built around that. It's a literal dollhouse sim.
>>730768832>literally posts original creator's inspiration>UM ACTUALLY
>>730767814Being for children is not an excuse to be shit.
>>730768642At least its free. I'm looking forward to it, but will drop it if its boring
wow, you guys are insufferable. at least post some cute animal people if you're going to argue all thread.
>Have to pay for a patchThe switch 1 was my first console as a PC player, and I bought the switch 2 because my switch 1 broke and seeing them do this is nuts. I genuinely didn't expect them to charge for every update.You can call me a fool or whatever but it's still shocking.
>>730769192another anon tried to start a villager thread, but no one replied
>>730768642For me it's not about the resort but rather about the small QoL things they're adding alongside it>>730769192Agree. Arguing with /v/ is useless because the people who argue the hardest are the ones who don't play the game
>>730769198The update is free thoughbeit
>>730769284It isn't, apparently you need to pay for the switch 2 patch.Imagine if I had to pay every time I updated windows or changed my CPU, it's mental.
>>730769237Is it dead already? I could've bumped it
Will /acg/ come back to play again and also not be retarded before it ended like last time?
>>730769373Hopefully not. These faggots deserve to stay dead and buried
>>730769464You're probably right. There were a few good ones though. I miss the ACNL days.
>>730769365Yes, it got archived quickly :(
>>730763238>nintendslop
>>730769373nah
>>730769325Oh, that's what you meant. The content of the update is free. Only the resolution bump and faster load times are $5.>Imagine if I had to pay every time I updated windows or changed my CPU, it's mentalI know what you mean, but this kind of thing has been standard on consoles for years now
>>730765065Wow, they changed an .ini file!
>>730769694What did you think we were getting?
>>730766012goy
>>730769745>I-i'm not broke! I-I'm just owning the jews!Nintendo is a Japane->good goyheh heh... alrighty anon... I'll leave you to it then...
>>730769669Yeah it's nuts to me. Switch will def be my final console after this. With the paid online and the paid updates I don't see how people put up with this. I just nabbed it during the pandemic because all my friends were playing animal crossing.
>>730769930>I don't see how people put up with thisXbox live has been around since 2002
>>730769464You guys are just jealous that people had fun on there without you.>>730769571>I miss the ACNL days.So, you just miss the period of when you joined there? Ok nostalgia fag
I hope a new general happens. I want to discuss this game with anons that actually like it.
>>730771086/v/ threads should be good enough I think
>>730770683>You guys are just jealous that people had fun on there without you.Not wanting to hang out with the schizos snipping dodo codes is not the same as being jealous of them
For $5 I know it won't add 60fps. But still it would have been nice.
>>730771884Its a bummer for sure, but at least the 4k will be nice. I'm interested in the mouse mode stuff too.
>>730769265>actual legitimate criticisms from extended play>nuuuuuu my hugbox
>>730772031at what point in this thread did a "hugbox" ever form? And why are you using that terminology?
>>730763238NH is garbage.
>>730772243Great. Another "old good, new bad" poster is here.
>>730772283I've suffered through the online enough times to see that the game has at least one objective glaring flaw.
>>730772587Is it the online?
>>730764814Agreed, but only for female villagers.
I'll start overI made my char a girl so i can wear both clothes but didn't realize it changes poses so i just look like a fag in boy clothesHope it's not as blurry in handheld mode now
Whoopty fuckin doo you get higher frame rates on animal crossing
>>730773494>higher frame rates on animal crossingoh no no no no no
>>730766067What is the point of this, the GC versions actually had value.
>>730773575>the GC versions actually had valueas in bell value, or...
I just want it to be easy to undo the terraforming I did at the start
>>730773640As a means to play NES games at no added cost.
>>730763398Not to upgrade the Switch version it's not. Have fun playing at 720p on your Fischer Price toy or paying the slop fee, goyim.
>>730773698Its 1080p, actually
>>730773698The 1080p handheld upgrade is free, shitposterkun.
>>730763238Is the switch 2 upgrade worth getting?
>>730768009The first month of Pocket Camp complete was 10 dollars, then 20 dollars afterwards. Its not free anymore, but still have loads of content compare to NH.
>>730774526We will see. I think the load times alone might be worth it. Gonna wait for some comparison videos before I buy it.
I've really started to alter my island like crazy. I haven't been this into the game since it released. I'm determined to finish the museum this time! (in reality I'll probably play for a few months and then quit like I usually do)
>>730767962The phone game fucking sucks
>>730776542I never tried it because I don't play games on my phone ever. I remember when it dropped people were worried that AC would be mobile franchise moving forward
>>730776951From the looks at NH, it might as well.
>>730776996Nah, despite its issues NH is still a great game
>>730777023Having a tutorial that last an entire real life Week is not good game play. This might work when everyone is force into lockdown, but not today.
>>730769373Need a new game before real people come back.
>>730777087Like I said, It has its flaws, but its a great game.
>/acg/ is gone>have to join some fucking discord server if I want turnip prices or blue rosesFuck
>>730778038You can also use r*ddit. I've actually had a few women send me friend requests after visiting their island through reddit.
>>730776951If you really like decorating and dressing up it might appeal to you, but it completely strips away the quaintness of having a little town to visit in favor of soullessly checking in to do chores every couple hours.
amiibo Festival scared them from ever trying to explore different genres in side-modes and spin-offs with this universe besides "more decorating" ever again, while character and world interactivity hasn't progressed in any meaningful way (and in some ways, has even regressed) since 2005.Imagine being given a cast as big as Pokémon and doing absolutely nothing with it besides having people make rooms for them over and over. Even the merchandising is just the same 4-5 characters again and again these days.
>>730763238no its been 6 years im not buying an update
>>730778945The update is free lil anon
>>730774579Damn, I didn't realize it was going to increase. I bought it a while ago, but keep bouncing off of it. the core gameplay is just so ass
Women killed animal crossing and harvest moon.You know this is right, these faggot games are now gay as fuck, i want to be a fucking farmer fuck woman eat shit niggers
>>730779153What do you suggest to play then?
>>730779153How did they kill it? Are you sure its not your fault?
>>730779189wish i knew>>730779202New horizon / Story of Seasons are girly shit. Stardew Valley is now the MALE GAMER GIGACHAD POGFACE farmer game
>>730779269>MALE GAMER GIGACHAD POGFACE>every girl had sex and you're getting a non-virginno
>>730779269Stardew Valley is the normalfaggot game, where endless females talk about it.>but muh modsYeah, like Skyrim.
>>730767180rolling log is better man fuck your acre autism
>>730778836While this is all true, PLEASE don't bring up the puzzle league mode. That shit was rancidly disappointing. Absurdly slow, no vs/garbage mode, bland music. I can't believe how painful it was as a big PdP/PL/TA fan.
>>730779321Can you stop pretending your made up cuck headcannon is real? There is NOTHING in the game that suggest any of them have had sex if you actually take it at face value and not your weird fetish interpretations of events
I never finished the happy home island.
>>730779703You aren't missing much. I wish they utilized the designed facilities more.
>>730763238What kind of lunatic is going to stay at a hotel where a bunch of Kappa have keys to your room
>>730779742I think I stopped after I made Waffle House in it. I was thinking of finishing it but I don’t really care, what’s your reward for doing it all anyway?
>>730763238my switch wasn't hackable and my sister's switch lite had drifting problems so I gave it to her, kind of sad to see my village go it looked amazing but it is what it is. every time I tried emulating the game and trying to get back to the endgame so I can decorate I've lost interest basically immediately.
>>730779816Mostly, you can design your main island villagers' interiors.
>>730779742some were nice because you could get cooking recipes from the restaurants, but outside of that I basically stopped playing the DLC once I unlocked the new counters and dividing walls for use on my village.
>>730764480This image makes me sad
>>730779985the hospital was nice because of the easy access to mummy clothing
>>730779269>Stardew Valley is now the MALE GAMER GIGACHAD POGFACE farmer gameIronically, that game is more feminine core than Animal Crossing. Not that thats a bad thing.
>>730779936That’s cool. I’m more looking forward to the resetti service in the update though since that’s gonna make my unfinished island makeover way faster. My friend has been begging me to do it so I guess I will.
>no way to easily hack any switches outside of the original release versionsif only I could upload my village off the console so I could use it on an emulator
>another update without Club Tortimer>another update without improved villager dialogue>another update without the missing furniture>another update without removing tool durabilityI'm supposed to be excited about what exactly? It's 6 years after launch and it hasn't come close to base New Leaf. Pretendo public NL servers can't come soon enough.
>>730779640>pretendingEvery thread has already provided evidence to support it. The only virgin left is the loli.
>>730778038Just visit one of the many Treasure Islands on Tw*tch.
>>730780436That shit feels dirty. I'll never do it.
>>730780478>want to cheat>but not like that
>want to restart to start fresh>remember the horrible tutorial during the first days>remember Nook’s Cranny takes a whole month irl to upgradeno thanks
>>730778038...just grow the roses yourself, nigger
Do what's new? I hated the focus on terrafoeming and ahit instead of just being a comfy village life simulator where you're just a regular villager doing your stuff and making friends. Is it worth replaying after 5 years?
I just want confirmation this shit still happens and spits in the players time so I can laugh at whoever bought this shit a second time.
>>730780846
>grown adult males talking about and playing Animal CrossingGrim times we live in.
>>730780014Just pretend it was from a game from another timeline, where they cared, and you not only used the clay they demand you collect to repair Coco, but played a couple of minigames with to teach her to catch bugs better afterwards.
>>730780014it'll be ok
>>730763398>the update is freeNot if you have to buy the new console.And for that reason... I'm out.
>>730768330it's kind of insane that it took 6 fucking years to let you craft more than one of an item at a time, an indie dev making the same kind of game would've responded to feedback and added that in a month
>>730763238>getting excited to play the worst ac titlesad
>>730780558Sorry, I wasn't the anon you replied to. I don't like turnip price chasing either.
>>730773001>>730764814My my, we have some architects here, wish I could invite villagers with your sensibilities to move into my island.
>>730780970You don't... the update is for all versions...
>>730781030City Folk exists
>>730781087Hang on, what is the NS2 edition entail?
>>730780716https://animalcrossing.nintendo.com/new-horizons/update-3-0/
>>730781123The switch 2 version is just a resolution bump, faster load times, and some mouse control stuff. Everything else is coming to switch 1 also
>>730763238I'm good, I'm still playing WW.
>>730780558co-operating with other players for decent turnip prices and flower trading is hardly cheating. unless that player cheated in the turnip price or flowers of course.
>>730780910Who do you think we're the majority players in the first place?
>>730780910>>730782170
>>730782208>he doesn't know how my Nintendo works
>>730782260elaborate
>>730782283It's based on registered account. Not who's using it.
>>730782421so what? Are you implying it isn't mostly adults playing?
>>730782260My Nintendo works just fine thank you very much.
>>730769265woah cool town
Bump
>>730781209>can't get the final upgrade without visiting another townBeyond fucking retarded, keeps me from playing it longterm.
>>730783760They removed that requirement in the Wii U VC release. But yeah, that's what keeps me from playing the old games long term.
>>730781151>those screenshotsLooking pretty nice.
>>730763238Nintendo are so fucking greedy man.Physical Switch 2 gamecart only includes the base game for 80-90$Happy home DLC and this new DLC are not on cart lmao.
>>730785975The new DLC is on the cart and its $70 not $80
>>730763238>no switch 2 animal crossing>this is all we'll get during the whole switch 2 lifetime, Mario kart 8 deluxe styleSearch your heart /v/ and realise it's trueAt the very least it means we won't get a new ac for like 4 years
>>730780970It says RIGHT THERE "Nintendo Switch + Nintendo Switch 2" on the 3.0 update.Nigga you dumb as fuck.
>>730783854>Wii U VC release
>>730766841You know there is a mod for the OG animal crossing right? like a rom hack? Its called Animal Crossing Deluxe, adds a bunch of new fetures and HD textures. Its very based
>>730763238I already got every gold tool, photos from all my favorite villagers and pretty much every item in the game so no thanks. The game is a painfully unfun grind even with the soon-to-be-added option to craft multiple items at once and all villager dialogue as is interesting as stale white bread. The only upside is that it's visually appealing in some ways but the older games have a certain charm to them that'll never be properly replicated. Fuck breakable tools and fuck the lazy devs.
>>730763238The only part of it that interests me is the Zelda stuff and that's Amiibo locked.Doesn't feel like enough reason to start a new island.
IT'S UPDATING. THIS IS NOT A DRILL.
