Festivale: the worst of ACNL!

[Tap Dancer]

I had Festivale last month because I'm currently playing a month ahead. I'm still in my first year of NL and everyone I've talked to has raved about Festivale. You know what? I didn't like it! The furniture, IMO, is ugly. And Pav? is annoying and hideous!

Tell me why you like Festivale, if you do, because I just don't understand the hype.

I think the pave furniture is ugly too but I havent had the rest of the festivale..so cant say.

I like it because you play a game that Pav? created.

Find 3 feathers that he wants and you find them by talking to villagers or catching them with nets.

I play it as sport.

I just like it because of Pav?'s dances tbh, but they get tiring. I usually horde feathers (by grabbing all of them so I don't have to be like "ugh, okay, let's find blue and only blue.") The furniture is ugly, but they sell well. It's not as bad as the harvest festival imho

I mostly think all the holiday furniture are ugly.

What's wrong with the Pave? Does blue and white not mix together?

It's not his colors. Well, his clothes look disgusting and I hate his personality.

Looks like old lady furniture to me.

I love the festival itself, but I managed to make myself hate the furniture. I just really enjoy catching feathers and trading them with villagers and I LOVE the rainbow feather and the Festivale Accessory, and how cute is it that the villagers dance around singing?!...But since I like the game of it so much, I ended up with like... 4 full pave sets. Literally. But I like the set in general! Just not having 4 whole ones. I actually had the Pave Set as one of my main rooms in my old town for quite a while.

I'm actually looking forward to it in my OYC town!!

Pave is funny and I like his character design, and the dances are fun the first few times.

Idk idk idk it's actually amongst my favorite holidays in the game! It's totally chill that other people don't like it tho, I can understand!

I just personally hate the style of them. The colors go great together vuv

Yeah I only like the egg and jingle series but for some reason he makes white and blue not work

It will be my first time experiencing it this year, I don't care much for the furniture set, and I don't usually have a lot of time to play on a Monday.

I used to like Festivale in ACCF, but in ACNL they just made Festivale a bit of a drag.

• You have to work your behind off catching 3 feathers for each piece of furniture. It takes too long.
• The furniture is pretty bad looking, I'm sorry if any Festivale supporters take offense to this but it looks to me like that "hippie"-like, shaggy texture that you sometimes find on those rainbow tye-die shirts.
• His dances drag ON and ON and ON. Especially if you give Pave a rainbow feather, his dance is TWICE as long.

The only thing I probably like about Festivale is the Festivale Accessory.

What's there not to love about rainbow paper pieces falling out of the sky all day and the amazing music?

Never done Festivale before but it can't be any worse than the Harvest Fesitval, I guess.
I've just got that much time to kill running around catching feathers.

I love festivale and all the other holidays in New Leaf. I had fun collecting all the feathers and the furniture last year. Though I don`t use the furniture in any room. Pave is fun too, he`s a dancing peacock! The only nuisance is he gives you furniture repeats, so it can be very time consuming.

 

[Shax]

Wow, I didn't realize so many people disliked the Pav? series. I mean sure, the festival itself was annoying and it took hours to get all of the pieces, but in the end I think it was worth it. I'm really proud of my Pav? room, even if a lot of people don't care for the series.

the furniture is ugly but its a treat to sell it en masse in a town with a bell boom and furniture on premium
I would never use the furniture in my house, but I like the feathers, and have fun running around after them, and Pave is something special all on his own. I also collect a bunch of each feather, basically when I play it I play for a while before I ever even talk to Pave, collect a pile of each type of feather and then talk to him, get him the feathers he wants, then go collect another pocket full of feathers, drop them in their related piles, talk to him again, when I have a pocket full of his ugly furniture I go sell for good money at retail and deposit it. I don't LOVE the holiday, but its not terrible either, just another event, if you don't like it you don't have to play it! (I skipped toy day AND bunny day until the most recent iterations of both because I thought I would hate them... turns out I didn't mind either one!)
