Definitely! I let go of Sterling today who was one of my starters. I've been trying to get rid of him for awhile and he finally asked to leave today. Yet I found myself so sad when I was saying goodbye to him!
It was all worth it though when I went to get Cranston and saw how ridiculously spiky his head is. Made me laugh out loud & know it was worth it!
Yeah, totally. I get attached easily, even when my initial reaction to a villager is less than enthusiastic. Like yesterday, the void gifted me with Astrid, who just happens to be a kangaroo (IN CLOWN MAKEUP), a species that throughout my AC history, has always led to conflict. I was convinced yesterday that I was gonna TT her out at the first opportunity so I did some preliminary TT testing to make sure I knew how to do it. Today, I woke up and saw her in the town square with her little joey and...I can't do it, Belltree forum. I can't. She's a brash and artsy single mom and I respect that. She has a home in Gallivant for as long as she needs one.
On the bright side, I unlocked that adorable TT hairstyle! No regrets.
Olaf was my mandatory camper and I started off despising him. I couldn't wait for the day he would leave. But when he finally asked too, I realised I actually had grown to love him and didn't want to see him go. I ended up letting him after some thought and hope that he lives his life to the fullest wherever he chose to go
Every single time. I had no villagers I truly loathed this time like I loathed QUIILLLSOOOONNNNN in New Leaf, but there were several I knew would only be around temporarily. And walking into their completely silent homes, their furnishings packed up and devoid of life... it hits you, man.
Half the ones I let go were successfully re-adopted by other players, but even then, walking past their their darkened houses knowing it's now empty... it's a little sad.
Big time. The only way I could let go of Beau was to find him a good home. Even though he was my least favorite resident, I couldn't bear the thought of voiding him. Was definitely sad to see him move out.
oh god yes. Pudge was my first villager to leave. I really didn't care about him since he was not one of my dreamies nor did he fit my theme, so I didn't think twice about letting him go when he asked to move.
When he was in boxes though... it was like someone punched me in the gut. Pudge already looks so miserable and then having him tell me goodbye, it broke me. I felt SO bad, I almost wanted him to stay.
But here's this: Now, when I let a villager leave, I go to visit Harvey's to do a "goodbye party" photoshoot with the leaving villager and my other villagers. And I end the session with a big group photo!
