So, generally I play animal crossing every day. Either I'm actually doing something or I'm getting on at 8 in a panic because I need to sleep in an hour and I haven't watered my flowers. Well, last night I just kind of didn't get on for the first time in forever, and I feel kind of guilty. And that was pretty much all day. Yesterday, I was just gone. So do you guys ever feel guilty about not getting on for a day? Or do you feel like sometimes you get on because you have daily chores?

I haven't played in months.

I feel nothing at all about it. It's a game. xD
I'll play again sometime.
 
Nah, not really. I don't really play much anymore if at all to be honest so I don't feel bad, I've probably missed like a month in total if you were to count up all the days that I've missed, and much more if you were to also count the ones I did more then just check my mail and check for pings.
 
I try to get on as much as possible. Lately, I've been going on a lot. But there's times where I don't check for a week or two.
 
I disappear for months at a time. It's tiring to feel like you're forced to play a video game every single day, just so your flowers don't die, or your villagers don't move away, or whatever. Thankfully, TT exists, so I can play when I feel like it and the game won't know any different.
 
i'm really back and forth about it. i'll stop playing for a couple weeks at a time, then think of all of the weeds, and feel even less inclined to start playing it again, haha.

but when i do get back into it, i'm pretty obsessive and playing daily and keeping up with it. the good balance for me is just to play it when i'm on my transit ride, because then i still get to keep busy on a chunk of my day that's not being utilized otherwise, and i'm not spending way too much time on it
 
Because of school, I generally end up skipping to up to 4 days of Animal Crossing. It's nothing big, but I sometimes feel like I'm abandoning my villagers
 
This summer I played hours every day. But since school has started, I find that I've only been able to play on the weekends.
I really only play once or twice a week at most. I don't feel guilty about it at all though.
 
I play everyday, depending on my mood, at first I used to fill guilty or compelled to the game due to my villagers and the cycling I was doing but, Since i've spent around 2,000 hours of my life in that game in 8 months, it's really boring me right now, I tried to move out some villagers to get back into the game and then ended missing them. So I could not let them go -.- I'm excited to play for Halloween night tho ! It's my favorite time of year so it will be fun in my 3 towns (2 main 1 cycle).
 
I've been on a good run of playing every day because I want to :) I mainly do it to form awesome friendships with my villagers and get my town looking the way I want it to :3

I don't normally play every day anymore. Sometimes I do. It is relaxing to hop on and water all of my flowers before bed. Because I have so many now it takes about 15-30 minutes and it is a good way to relax.

I would feel guilty when I did play it all of the time. I felt like I was doing it more than some of my other hobbies (mostly knitting) and I wasn't getting anything out of it (like socks) in the process. But mostly I play when I want to and don't worry if I'm playing too much or too little anymore.
 
I can usually only play on Saturdays and Sundays, and sometimes Fridays due to school being every other day of the week. In the beginning it was kind of hard, but now I've pretty much grown used to it. :p
 
I never feel guilty because my play style is time travel and I usually just make a note of the last date I played, so that the next time I come to play, I just change the date back to the last time I played.
 
There has been a time when I didn't play for about...2 weeks or something? But that was mostly because I was busy & I just wasn't feeling it with the way my town looked at that point so I didn't really bother. Since I've pretty much got the overall layout of my town now & I really like it, I always check it every day. I never think of it as a chore or anything as even now there have been days where I just haven't had the chance, so I do get what you mean when you say you feel guilty for missing a day to check it.
