Anyone here still play the game "naturally"?

[olivetree123]

I know most of the community tends to try and make a picture perfect town, but does anyone on here just let the game play out for you? No resetting for villagers, time travel, just letting them move around as they please, destroying your town in the process....but it's part of the fun, right?

ANYWAY this is my plan for my new town, and I wanna know who still lets the game decide how their town and villagers play out.

Yes! This is how I've played since day one. My town has natural dirt roads, houses all over the place and villagers from all tiers. I love my town and can't imagine playing any other way. It would give me a lot of unnecessary stress, and it'd suck all the fun out.

Animal Crossing encourages people to 'go with the flow' and adapt to change. Good life lessons. lol

 

[otomatoe]

I do I find it fun that way. One time the random move-in crashed my purple tulips garden but oh whale xD

 

[GhulehGirl]

I play it "naturally" as well, always have. Best way i think.

 

[RRJay]

I generally play naturally but I time travel and I just got into plot resetting bc I am now going for that "picture perfect" town. its nice, but when I keep getting stuck with villagers i hate, in places that are inconvenient (such as in front of my town hall) then it starts to get less fun.

 

[MillySoSilly]

I played my first town "unnaturally". I TT'd a lot. But for my second town, I thought about playing it the natural way but I'm too much of a perfectionist to not plot reset.

 

[Celestis]

i play naturally partially because i'm pretty finicky and so plotting stuff out just kinda frustrates me because i'll change my mind a few weeks later, and partially because i'd have no clue where to start with plotting and time traveling and stuff

I have been playing naturally so far and, when I reset on the 14th, I?ll keep it natural. Next time I also won?t take advantage of towns that don?t play natural so the whole thing remains "organic" xD

What I will do is to try and get the best looking map possible to start with, and from there place my PWP neatly where I don?t want villagers to move, that?s it.

I time travel when I really want to change the layout of my town and put pwps in a certain area before villagers move there. But I don't campsite reset or plot reset, which is why Rosie's house is one space in front of my town hall :T

 

[Barbara]

I do, and I always have. I did plot reset a bit in a previous town, but that was only to prevent the villagers to move on top of hybrids/block something completely off. I don't have 'dreamies' nor invite villagers over to my town, I just let them move in from the campsite, by random move-ins of wi-fi(/streetpass) move ins.

 

[Don_Resetti]

I do but I make sure my town is at least not too ugly/confusing

 

[MTPockets]

Yup! That's me

 

[Lumira]

i used to do that for my first 2 years of playing, but after my sister moved out into her own town, i transformed my town into a "picture perfect" one with paths and plot resetting if i ever get a second town, i may go the natural route again, and for good for that game.

 

[Pookie4557]

I time travel if a villager moves in a dumb spot or if a dreamie is up on a thread and I have 10 villagers already. Other than that I play naturally.

 

[CrossAnimal]

Naturally. I just don't take this game seriously enough to time travel and plot reset or any of that other stuff.

 

[Rabirin]

I don't time travel, but I do plot reset for villagers. i just cant deal with that kind of commitment ok im sorry especially if they're dreamies and they plot in a bad place, it literally makes me want to delete my game I used to time travel though and be reckless while doing it, but now I feel awful if I even skip forward a day.

 

[lynnxo]

i play naturally. of course, i still put paths down and a lot of flowers to make it pretty and neat, but i've always done that. i'm not much of the TT, plot reset, or daily landscaping type.

 

[radioloves]

I usually do, sometimes I time travel for hybrids and when I'm really bored. I let my villagers move in and have them plot to their house as they desire and I haven't tried plot resetting or anything yet. I really enjoy the regular gameplay a lot :3

 

[stitchmaker]

Yes I've been playing like that since the release date in my main town. I didn't know about plot setting and the villagers just moved in. It took me awhile to figure out how to fix the 10th villagers house placement. One night it clicked while I was standing by her house. I'm happiest playing my main town.

 

[Vickie]

I only TT to get villagers to move in/out.
I don't plot reset because I don't really know where is the perfect spot for my villagers to move in. But maybe that's an excuse for being lazy, lol
