ACNH Pet Peeves and Petty Complaints Thread

The fact that some furniture items like a Double Door Fridge or a Freezer is considered "changing clothes" really is an Animal Crossing logic.
I mean how does that make any sense?

Replanting new bushes every month and a half sucks, since there's only 1 type of bush in season at a time.

Haha, Omg the best/ most surprising one for me was the bug cage you get in the bug off. I was hoping that I would be able to display a bug in it (I was very new to the game at the time) and when it asked if I wanted to change clothes, I was just...

I like ‘animal crossing logic’ that is a perfect term for it

Same here! When I had my first bug off, I made sure to nab a couple thinking I could display a bug. I was disappointed but honestly, it wasn’t too big of a disappointment considering how I feel about bugs (please don’t laugh at me). When someone posted a picture of them changing in the freezer, before i got a copy of the game, I honestly thought that was funny.

Sorry for butting in. Just was happy to see I wasn’t the only one that expected the bug cage to be for...not changing clothes

I mean when I think of changing clothes I think of wardrobes, because that makes sense, but a Double Door Fridge and Freezer is considered "changing clothes"? Idk who thought this was a good idea, but it sure really confused the heck out of me when I saw it the first time.

This is the thread we didn't know we needed. I can't come up with something at the moment, but I will soon! I haven't gotten to play in a while. ☹

Do y’all remember the clothes wands? That was the most over complicated thing for no reason. Did they actually think it was making things more convenient?

I tried it once and threw the thing away.

Oh my god.....I REALLY don't get why they made so many wands in this game. Like they literally work the same exact way. Sure its fine to have more variety of wands, but did they really had to make it all DIYS? Would it make more sense for us to customize them? To this day it still boggles my mind how they made so many of these wands yet they work the same way.

Oh, aha. I wasn’t aware that there were other clothes wands in the game besides the star one. I still don’t fully understand their decisions on functionality, but I know there’s some people out there who still like them. Personally, it just over complicates things with how the wand basically “steals” your clothes and you can’t use the same pieces of clothing for anything else.

Not to mention everytime you want to go change your clothes you have to take off your wand outfit AND remove your swim suit. This only happens if you wanted to change clothes with your wardrobe or if you were shopping by Able sisters.

I actually love the wands and set my custom outfits to it in case I spot a villager wearing one and need to quick change for a photo. I wish when you set a custom outfit as the thumbnail in the wand, it showed the actual pattern, not a generic icon, though. I mean you can still tell the outfits apart by name so it doesn't really matter, but it looks weird having the thumbnail icon be pants or a hat instead of the main outfit itself.

They changed Crazy Redd’s name

They changed Crazy Redd’s name

I'm still a little confused by this change. Is it just his specific name for the shop on his ship? Jolly Redd's Treasure Trawler kind of flows better than Crazy Redd's Treasure Trawler, but still... I would like some lore/explanation on that.

I don't like that Flurry has a pet hamster...

Also this. Who’s “everyone”??? Last time I checked, they haven’t contributed a single thing to this island. Without me, they would have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. They haven’t lifted a finger since getting here, all while I’ve slaved away building the island up with my bare hands for them. They are like the kids who don’t contribute to the group project but still get the same final grade as those who did.

It would be very nice if we could hang items from cliffs and simple panels. Bonus points if we could also use two different patterns on simple panels as well (one top and one bottom pattern) instead of just one repeated pattern. It would open up so many new possibilities! And more opportunities for some sizeable frame rate drops as well, I guess...

Oh, and a dryer item would be nice as well.

Can trees just stop dropping branches on the island

also, while I love the idea of this thread, I can see it becoming just another ACNH Rant Thread. 3, 2, 1...

 

[peachycrossing9]

I wish there were more items in the game that you can interact with and also your villagers. How cute would it be to see them spinning around in the teacup ride?

Yeah, my intention with this thread was to create a space to talk about the little things that aren't a big enough of a deal to complain about in the rant thread, but still make us roll our eyes, haha. Nothing too serious that actually affects the game that much! I guess it's the "nitpick" counterpart of the thread where they were pointing out the little details that they love about the game.

Whereas the rant thread is about the bigger issues with the game, this is supposed to be more lighthearted, trivial stuff.

i could literally write a novel about how many times i’ve ended up with a plucked flower while just trying to pick up a nearby item. it’s such a small inconvenience but i still hate it.
