anyone else can’t be bothered to help gulliver?

yes, i know the items are valuable but sometimes i'm just too lazy
 
I like getting Gulliver. I like talking to Gulliver. I even don't mind his long-winded dialogue. I love the furniture he gives you. I love the clothing he gives you. But, his fetch quest annoys me. I wish they would rotate it with the quizzes he had in New Leaf. They were fun, short, and educational. There is nothing educational about digging up rusted parts when you don't feel like it. The first few times were fun, but now it feels like a bother and not as special as it was in New Leaf.

I still help him though when he shows up. I think the last time I had him was last week. So it just feels like a long time since I had him last, but it isn't really.
 
Only care to do it so I can unlock the golden shovel DIY after some dumb amount. What is it, 100 times? I'm at 4.
 
i like some of the items he gives you but i just don’t feel like helping him very often. it’s just too much effort going around my already super full beach and digging up clams in search of phone parts... can anyone relate?
I've only helped him once, ever. I always leave him sprawled out on my beach because I don't like talking to him... and even less doing his bidding. The rewards aren't even enough incentive for me to help him. So yeah, he stays permanently passed out.
 
You can at least get the communication parts and wait the entire day to get them to be rusted parts. If there's something you want from Gulliver, that's sort of the incentive. It takes less than 10 minutes about to find what you need, so I always do it.
What do rusted parts do?
 
i always help him, it's a bit of a chore though
but LOL, y'all are really leaving him passed out on the beach? good luck to him
 
I always help him, I haven't gotten all his items yet because I have been saving the rusted parts. Maybe once I get all the furniture items and have a good stash of rusted parts I will ignore him, but I doubt that will happen any time soon.
 
Even if the task is quick the repetition is obnoxious, but I do it every time because I want that golden shovel.
 
I think Gulliver's crew keeps tossing him over board as one of my letters specified that when he got back on board they just sighed and rolled their eyes

”Ahoy there, *Redacted*!

Thanks to your help, I’m back with my crew! They made a big show of sighing and rolling their eyes when I climbed aboard. What Jokers! Anywho, here’s a cool trinke from my travels. Hope you enjoy it!

From Gulliver the Sailor”

word for word, minus my name being removed

would love his trivia to come back, I liked a challange

what they could do, if we fail his trivia, we collect parts.

basically, he‘ll try to look it up with his phone and it’ll be broken, kinda like what we have now
 
I do it every time he comes, just cause I want his stuff but otherwise, I wish his interactions were a bit more varied. I didn't play NL but my sister did and his quizzes were really fun.

And a toy hero is...
It's the robot hero you can get the diy from the nook stop
 
I do Gulliver's requests! Gulliver is one of my favourite NPCs so I do it every time haha
 
I like Gulliver & I want to help him, but the communication parts fetching quest can sometimes be downright punishing. I don't want the rusted parts, either. So his visits are 100% up in the air as to whether I'm actually going to bother with it lol.
 
I don’t like the repetitive dialogue, but I don’t mind doing his tasks since it doesn’t take me too long. For some reason he disgusts me though LMAO! I imagine him as a drunk that’s past out after a binge because his story of repeatedly falling overboard makes no sense to me. So I see him and I’m immediately thinking “uggghh it you again”.
