Hi all!
I frankly love adding that vibe of "manliness" to my towns, I feel like they need it! In Kaptan, my main town, this role is fulfilled by the punky purple poison master, Danica. Not a male, obviously, but the style of her house adds those dark, modern tones that I usually go for in my male houses, and effectively satisfies my need for a bit of guyness.
However, I'm really having a time trying to figure out how to do her house! Thanks to the Welcome Amiibo update, there's now tons more furniture to experiment with, and really, in terms of male characters, there's more items in New Leaf than in any other Animal Crossing game. I'm still really disappointed, though. I think there definitely needs to be more clothes, accessories, furniture and just items in general for male characters! It's even weird how the girls can get away with (and actually look kind of cute) wearing the boy hairstyles and clothing items, but if a boy were to run around with a heart shirt and ponytail, he'd look like a joke!
My friend and I used to play a lot of New Leaf together, and he always struggles with what to do with his house so that it didn't look too girly. There are ways, obviously. I've seen it done really well. But there's definitely not the same flexibility, at least not in my opinion.
I always thought Animal Crossing was kind of a girls' game, but the truth is, I don't even know for sure that it is. I haven't met that many people that play, so it's hard to tell, but why should it be a game where you have to play as a girl to enjoy all the items? Does anyone agree with me or am I alone in these feelings?
