I always play in real time, only time travelling when I need to do something.
 
I generally play in real time but I'll sometimes change the time if I get on too late and nothing's open.
 
I used to play in real time and then I got sucked into Time Traveling lol so I'm currently moving out a villager but once I do that I might play in real time or I might start at the beginning of fall again because that's my fave season and I kind of missed it (I mean we're still in Nov but I prefer October colors) by TTing.
 
I never once changed the time or date! Only to change the real-life daylight saving time clock.
 
Hello!

I prefer playing in real time. I love comparing the game and the reality; for example where it will first start snowing?
 
I time travel a lot, I like to play at a quick pace and I'd get bored playing in real time P: I do my dailies (buy everything I'd like to catalog, talk to everyone, do the diving trick to get a new pwp, etc), tt to the next day, do my daily routine again and so on. I'm just not too patient and I like to make progress fast.
 
I play in real time now. I used to TT a lot in the past, but now I just rather play normally.
 
I always play in real time as much as I can on my towns! Time traveling just feels like cheating... The only time I would consider doing it would be to move out a villager I've been holding onto for someone else.
 
noooo I tt so much it's terrible :( I think the date is the same???? I'm not 100% sure but I do know that the time is definitely incorrect
 
I play in real time. Occasionally I've TT'd a few days forward or backward to speed up villager move-ins/move-outs, but other than that, I like to play in real time.
 
I play on the real world date, but my time is reversed so when it's 10am in real life, it's 10pm in game I did this because I usually play between the hours of 10pm and 2am and found I could do very little as everything was closed plus I like the day time :-)
 
I normally time travel quite a bit. But I recently restarted one of my towns and got my town sold by Tom Nook and I'm doing the 100 installments of the money. It feels weird playing in real time. I want to time travel so bad but I don't want to mess anything up. So once the 100 days are up, I'll be time travelling a lot.
 
Nope, never. I used to back in the Wild World days, but I was much younger back then and since New Leaf came out and I've been caught up with school/work and never really have time to play throughout the day. Playing at the times that's convenient for me and setting the clock back whenever I need to makes the game more relaxing and easier than worrying about staying on time. And if I'm being quite honest here, its more enjoyable for me to experience new things quicker than waiting another 24 hours for the shop to restock new items, see who is moving in/out, ect. (I'll never understand why people still consider time traveling a form of cheating when it's literally using an option the game gives you in the menu!) But still I only time jump a day or two at a time and spend about 30 mins on each day to make sure I've done everything that day.

I used to time travel every day, but now I only time travel when trying to get villagers I don't like out of my town. I also used to set my town to summer no matter what season it was, not sure why lmao
 
Right now I'm in September. I'm hardly ever in the correct season, let alone month. I time travel way too much for that. xD
