Here I have some long segments of every flaw in Animal Crossing: City Folk, I assure you it'll take you a very long time to read it all. But enjoy this rant I made that took me hours.
<div class='spoiler_toggle'>House Upgrades</div><div class="spoiler" style="display:none;">Remember Wild World's House Upgrades? You could have different little rooms in each side of the house, and an upstairs room. But in City Folk, you have one huge room, a basement and an upstairs room. I was really disappointed when I found out you didn't have your Mansion laid out like that in the end, it just feels like the GameCube Version, it has the exact same upgrades. Now I understand in Wild World your other players share the same house, and those rooms were made for your other people. I doubt they were able to fit all of it into the game, so they did that instead of the usual animal crossing business. But wasn't Wild World's Mansion even better? I tell ya, City Folk has the exact same Upgrades as in the GameCube version. Also, why can't we have the NES games back in City Folk? I guess there wasn't enough space for em. Anyways, don't you honestly prefer Wild World's Mansion? One big room, a basement and an upstairs room is real boring compared to what you have in Wild World.</div><div class='spoiler_toggle'>The Grass</div><div class="spoiler" style="display:none;">Oh lord, the new feature of dying Grass doesn't motivate you to plant flowers and catch bugs, it forces you. That was the point of catching all insects, right? I don't remember a single time in Wild World where my grass died, and I ran all over that little town of mine. Even though there were patches where the homes would be, that's normal. The grass didn't die back in Wild world and Gamecube, it shouldn't die here in City Folk.</div><div class='spoiler_toggle'>The City</div><div class="spoiler" style="display:none;">Let's think of something else....The city! The city is boring and overrated, there isn't really much to do there, cept the usual AC events like Katrina, Crazy Redd, and Dr. Shrink. You can also change your hair, chainge the color of your shoes, do things in an auction house with your Wi-Fi buddies, and shop at GracieGrace, but everything's overpriced, plus I wouldn't wanna buy stuff from there, anyway because it looks like a Women's Fashion shop. Which it is, most likely. When City Folk was coming out, everyone was SO excited about the city. But when people bought the game, many were disappointed. The final flaw of this city is that you can't go online in the city, that would have been badass going with your friends in a bus for a few minutes and being able to talk to each other, instead of talking to that dried up pirate dude, Kapp'n. I would prefer a 5 minute trip doing nothing but talking to each other rather than not being able to go at all.</div><div class='spoiler_toggle'>Pascal</div><div class="spoiler" style="display:none;">Pascal makes no sense, he's like that Wise Old Man you talk to for Advice, but he's actually just some *censored.1.2* otter. Sure you get pirate furniture and a Golden Axe by giving him a Scallop, but I've never seen scallops in City Folk before, only white Scallops. Aren't Pearl Oysters supposed to be rare instead of little Scallops? You can find Scallops everywhere in real life. and Pearls are actually worth a lot. I think Pascal is another worthless Side Quest, because you can just throw your axe in the Fountain and it can end up being Gold or Silver. Unless you want a Pirate Themed house, there's your awesome adventure.</div><div class='spoiler_toggle'>Nookingtons</div><div class="spoiler" style="display:none;">Eventually, after a long period of time of having Nookingtons, Tom Nook will ask you a question regarding what you look for in a shop. If you answer incorrectly, your store will be downgraded. Now that right there is some pretty big bs. First off, if you've spent so much time and money to help his shop get Upgraded all the way, why in the holy mother of Linda Stein would I even want to believe that downgrading something perfectly awesome as Nookingtons into some crap shack is a good idea? Hot damn, what kind of hobo would you have to be to have those meet your standards? Even less than a Hobo, you'd have to be a stray dog to have such bitter, disgusting tastes in wanting a Cardboard Box for your shopping needs. I'd rather shop at a backstreet alley, knowing I would get scammed, raped, killed, or even worse. Now the downgrades aren't all that bad. Depending on what you've selected, it can randomly downgrade to any previous shop. It's kind of like you gotta gamble now, you can go home safely, knowing your awesome shop is still intact, or a wrecking crew storms the place and you have no choice but to rebuild a crappier shop. But how does he do that? It would take a lot of noise breaking the shop apart. Well, that's Animal Crossing for you. The world full of Magic.</div><div class='spoiler_toggle'>Crazy Redd's</div><div class="spoiler" style="display:none;">Crazy Redd's is a random shop with a few items in it, usually a painting and rare furniture. The only way you can get inside the shop, is if someone invites you to their so called "Family". That sounds pretty fishy, what the hell is he selling in there? Crack? Marijuana? PCP? Shrooms? Maybe Crazy Redd is a batshiit insane terrorist selling heavy weaponry, planning on ruling all of the Animal Crossing world like motherfacking Hitler! Anyways, the rare items and paintings are worth it. Or are they? You might think that getting Paintings is nice for your House and Museum, but every time you identify Redd's Paintings, it's a damn fake! Why in the name of Leonardo Da Vinci would I wanna buy fake paintings? Isn't that illegal? Talk about Copper and Booker doing their damn job. Oh well, now you know that Crazy Redd is a CRAAAAAZY SCAMMER!</div><div class='spoiler_toggle'>Shampoodle</div><div class="spoiler" style="display:none;">Remember how I said you can get your hair done in the city? Well it just plain flatout sucks. How are we supposed to know what hair we're getting, if it doesn't even give us a decent explanation of what we want our hair to be! You need a freaking Guide to get the right haircut, because there is no way I'm wasting 3000 Bells a day for months looking for a decent haircut. Sure I'm rich and I can afford it, but I don't wanna look silly during Wi-Fi Parties. More like Scampoodle. The shoe shining is okay though. Cept when you get a bad shine. All depends what you're wearing.</div>
