Anyone else think it's weird to have an In-Game "Mom"?

[GDarling]

When I get those messages from "Mom" it's kind of uncomfortable/cringey. My real mom speaks spanish so any time I get some mail from "Mom" im like o no...

Here's a quote I especially didn't like "No matter, what you'll always be my baby."

Who are you why do you know where I live

haha i hadn't thought about it really! i've just gotten used to it since it's been a feature since the gamecube version. if anything it'd be weird to take it out at this point.

but imagining it as some stranger who knows where you live and has just decided that she's your mom is killing me lmao

 

[Corrie]

I find it more touching. I love being loved haha

it got even weirder when my real mom read the messages from the in-game mom

not a new player but uh I've always thought.

who the foxtrot are you why do you know me and where I live you creepo.

in nl you also had a dad who only wrote on father's day and basically has disappeared like my real one

 

[jokk]

i like it! i think it’s funny that you have this mom you never meet who only communicates through mail

 

[Red Cat]

I don't think it's weird. What would be weird is having 10 in-game siblings, but if they all sent presents I'd be okay with that.

It actually hits differently as someone that has emotionally distant parents.

Though my mom also solely speaks Spanish, so that kind of breaks the immersion haha.

i mean when the in-game mom says that she misses you I've always been like.

bruh you're standing right next to me irl

And we can't send her mail? Is animal crossing a cult O_O

 

[Queen Greene]

you'll always be my baby.

She likes Mariah Carey evidently

I think the in-game Mom is cute, but I never really questioned where she is. Moms can be really cute. I love my mom. Moms!

bruh i'd write something like, send more presents pls.

 

[Lilybells]

I think it's really sweet! I don't feel like my character is actually me, so I see the mom as her mom, not mine.

 

[Dwayne Johnson]

shes alright, better than my real one for sure

 

[kojuuro]

Have Asian parents and can't relate to any of the letters "Mom" sends me lmao.

 

[Romaki]

Yeah, my mom would never talk like that so it's very weird.

nobody:
me: I'm gonna base my ac character off myself
also me: hm I should dye my hair blue and have blue eyes and wear a cowgirl outfit

[Ananas Dragon]
