In order to be able to sit on your tree you have to have played on 50 individual and unique days and have 50 hours of play time in that town. The fastest way to achieve this is probably just to play a lot/leave your ds idle, and make sure you have played on 50 different days in the game. Time...
Landscaping is one of my favourite things to do in the whole game honestly haha.
I don't know how much this will help at all, but the method I used to build my town is laying down the paths first. I tried to connect each permanent building in an interesting way before placing any...
You're completely fine if you visit hacked towns unless under very specific circumstances (e.g. if they have a tpc photo booth hacked in and you use it, but a town with one of those is basically impossible to encounter). The last fossils are always hard to find so it's definitely just luck! I'm...
my DA is 7A00-00C3-FC64 !
the houses aren't complete and there are certain areas missing pwps but it's mostly finished (aside from some extra details). I can't wait to hear your opinions!
If by a miracle I ever have enough money to buy a switch with animal crossing, I would definitely just start over! I would want to experience everything on the switch, and it would be less of an experience if most of my bugs/fish were already caught etc. (it would also be a pain to track what I...
Looking at your town map it appears to be very tight, so I would probably either use dirt paths (like the people above me are saying), a clover path (if you are incredibly patient and dedicated), or use a one square wide path. It would make it easier to navigate the skinny areas/tighter areas...
Designing! I have had many different towns and I love how none of them look the same and I had so much fun designing each one and landscaping them all. I like how you just can't get the same town more than once, so each time you are given something different to work with. It's why I haven't put...
I've actually unintentionally created dirt paths in almost my whole town through actually having paths. I don't know if it's the most efficient method or whether or not people who have dirt paths in their town think it's tedious, but maybe if you put down a pattern first to outline where you...
Oh, absolutely. I wouldn't be lost without guides, however it's just the little things that I check when I use them. I shamelessly use one for Redd's art (unfortunately I do not have an artistic eye and cannot spot the mistakes most of the time), to check efficient hybrid combinations, and which...
I make music boxes of their house song and then put it next to the images in my museum exhibit. I put the duplicates in my house but I only have duplicates of two of my villagers currently.
When the game was first released I was incredibly anti time travelling just because I wanted to experience everything for the first time in real time, so I do understand why people really dislike time travelling. But almost 5 years down the line and having already experienced pretty much...
I've been there before many times. I think my worst slip-up was finding the perfect map but then realising that I had input my town name for my mayor's name and my town name for my mayor's name. I have played through the Rover's dialogue so many times and yet I still made a ridiculous mistake...
I'm going to mention that I've had it since release day to make myself feel better haha. On my old 3ds I have around 2300 hours logged and on my 2ds I have 694 hours logged so altogether that makes almost 3000.
There's also probably a lot of times that I've left it idle for a while since...
I'm personally not a "just work around it" person, and no matter who it is I move them out. I dislike not having full control over where my villagers live, which is why when I restarted my town back when the update was released I locked my town down with patterns and planned my paths out very...
