ACNH Pet Peeves and Petty Complaints Thread

Is it too much to ask for to get some peace in my own home?

This!

Whenever I go in there, I have to quickly dart in and out to do whatever I need to do as fast as possible before I’m interrupted. Or I go to decorating mode if I’m moving things so they can’t just barge in while I’m organising. It doesn’t work well though, as soon as I close it… *knock knock*

I redecorated Marina's house, put a little DIY bench for her to work, but no, she prefers getting rid of her fridge to put another DIY bench.

I'm sure this has been said many times before, but PLEASE let me bulk buy things at the clothing store. I've had to leave and reenter the room just to buy different coloured hats 6 times now and then I randomly forget which colour I've already bought so I need to go and check and... I am EXHAUSTED. Just let me get ALL the colours at ONE CHECK OUT. Please and thank you.

When it comes to trying to get all the DIYs I wish there was a lil number icon to show how many more DIYs you have left to learn or something.
With the amount of doubles we all get, it's hard to tell how many more DIYS I still need to learn (Still sadly don't have the scattered papers diy that I still need..)

That should also go for furniture and clothing too with their different colours.
Cause now I need to keep going back and ticking off stuff I have already ticked off, because I keep redoing it once I get something new. if there was something ingame that could help, that would be great.

Numbering them would be wonderful indeed. And I feel you on trying to get things like that paper DIY--I'm right now holding onto several DIY cards because I know they need stuff I don't have yet so there's no point in learning them just for them to show up as Hot items at the store and not be able to make them.

Where it came to the different colors and trying not to rebuy the same clothes I did find holding off on a lot of those purchases until I had the phone app for my catalog was beneficial, then at least I could check while I was there. I preferred hoarding the money at that point of the game up anyway to get my house paid off.

Then later with the furniture it was easier to take an item and money to Cyrus and just run through having him do a whole set of furniture recolors just so I could order whatever I wanted extra whenever I wanted. For example, if I wanted a dolly of each color have him change the color of one on all options then order the ones I wanted was easier than ordering a bunch of the wrong color and having to redo them all.

two things i've noticed lately

• when k.k. slider comes to town isabelle's like "he loves taking requests! let him know if you have a request!" but he doesn't even take requests until 6pm or whatever. i mean, i know that by now, but for anyone who's new she could at least be more accurate about k.k. slider's schedule
• STOP CALLING ME BACKBEAT!!! I DON'T LIKE IT!! i should have never said yes to whoever gave me that nickname however long ago. it's SO annoying. i'm VERY picky with nicknames now whenever they're suggested to me because i don't want everyone to keep calling me "backbeat." would it KILL you to use my ACTUAL NAME ONCE IN A WHILE....

i recently made the grave mistake of giving both shino and agnes two very cute goth fits: one for each of them. they both immediately tried them on (and looked sooooo slay if you were wondering), and THEN they BOTH took off the fit and displayed them on mannequins in their respective homes. devastating bc i only just got shino and her house was so cute and pristine and NOW she’s got this stupid mannequin out ugh. can’t you both put your clothes away in your closet where i can’t see them when i come over unannounced!! ugh huge mistake tbh

Do you have happy home paradise? If you do, you can alter the villager houses yourself once you progress far enough

i do! tbh each house takes me soooo long that i haven’t done very many yet… i think you need to do 30 or something to unlock altering villager houses maybe i’ll get there in a calendar year, haha

I think I knew this before but found out again today: do not turn your non-native fruits into products to sell because the fruit value will be calculated based on it being your native fruit. So only make those recipes for your own use/consumption and sell the fruit outright. (I'm glad I was only doing up one of each thing rather than bulk crafting.)

 

[Saturn]

came back to say i also rly wish you could change your character name and island name in the game (‘: even if it cost a ridiculous amount of bells or something, i would move heaven and earth to have this option available

Happy Home Paradise, I love it, but I I have...complaints and confusions, for lack of better words.

- So, a couple weeks ago or so, I got a photo for doing a vacation house via Amiibo. I wasn't even aware of how to get (non-villager) photos until then. Last night, I designed houses for Flurry and Hazel via their Amiibos because I needed to get some cute-themed furniture + the cute red wall registered in my HHP catalog and I saw on the Wiki that they were two of the villagers could be used for it. And luckily, they corresponded to my available Amiibo library. This time, however, no photos. I don't really care to have their photos, but I do find this whole thing to be very bizarre.

- I remember getting a sea side/tropical vista wall for visiting one of the characters, as I used it in their house. I didn't even know this was a thing until then. Sweet of them, right? Well, I have been trying this with various other characters, but I haven't had this happen again since. Is this supposed to be rare?

- I have the pink heart rug registered in my HHP catalog, but I cannot order it. WHY?! I hope Saharah will have my back at least...

- I know this is also the case for the NookStop, but the five-item limit is ridiculous for both HHP and NookStop. It's not like our mailbox has a 300 limit or something. I prefer even numbers over odd numbers, so I feel like the limit should be 6, 8, or 10 MINIMUM.

- I also hate it when Lottie forces you to work on a facility when you are just in the mood to work on houses.

- Why can you only convert 15,000 Poki a day?!?!?!

- Why does Niko always have to bring you back? Why can’t he just take you from vacation home to vacation home if you wish?!

It's the workout clothes and food service outfits that drive me bonkers. I get so many of them it's unreal. And I really did not need a diaper and a pacifier, or a shirt with a bib nor the baby jammies. I don't understand why there's basically an entire layette when there are no infants in the game, plus the crib, changing table, high chair, etc. What am I missing here?

It's a shame when Flick is on an island, I can't open my gates so my other islander rep can go get art bug commissions from him. That would've been so helpful!
Definitely being stuck with so many bugs in storage.
