And so it begins! After approx 140 hours in the game, some of it spent telling myself that I will come to terms with having two south river exits and resident services + the airport being very close together, that it will be fine and I will resist the urge to reset, after all I know how New Leaf ended up, I decided to just reset. Losing out on my villagers, some of them being dreamies and the DIY recipes really sucked, but, I can always get them back later.
Getting the kind of map I wanted was surprisingly difficult however, I would have liked a west river, with airport & resident services being in line with one another (but further apart than my last one). In the end after having reset for a couple of hours with no such map in sight, I ended up going for this one!:
It's pretty close to what I wanted, aside the obvious 'oh but the river is east'. Which is fine, just means I have to mirror the ideas I had for my west river exit, which is fairly managable. My native fruit is cherries, which is fair enough, not
quite as good as peaches, but it's up there for me. And getting Reneigh as a starting villager is pretty great to me too! I think the native flower is windflowers, but, as I can't see the cliffs properly I'm not 100% sure of that one.
Other than that I just spent the time rushing through the first day, getting enough Nook Miles to pay of my tent so I'll have my house on day 2 and donating enough creatures so I get to place Blathers tent! (And hoarding many more outside where his tent will be so I can donate them later!
