Have you ever gotten a dreamie in your town only to realize...

[Tenocht]

It was not a dreamy, but kinda liked Rasher, he look kind of cool with all that scars and is a purple pig, but when I got him and saw his hous, yuck, didnt like it, was the first villager to leave my town.

I'm surprised that a common reason people give for disliking a dreamie is that they say the "same stuff as [other villager]". I mean...do people really expect villagers of the same personality to have different things to say? It's not exactly how the game is programmed.

I'm guessing you never played the early AC games. You could talk to your villagers for hours on end and never get bored or find them repeating themselves loads. They really cut down the dialogue and watered down the personalities in NL, and the fact it's so noticable with only 2 of the same personality in your town really disappoints a lot of people when you consider in AC:GC there were only 6 personalities, and you had 15 villagers. You often had 4 of a single personality and this wasn't really an issue at all then.

As someone for whom NL is his first AC experience, that's very interesting to me.

actually this issue was worse in CF

Chrissy was one of my dreamies but after a week I was ready to get her out.

This is why I said Early AC games, I didn't pay attention to my villagers much in CF, nor play it as much as the first 2. Though atleast the crankies were cranky and the snooties were snooty in CF. I do remember hating on Vladimir and Tiffany in my town because of the stuff they said.

Ah, on the contrary, I played the heck out of the GC Animal Crossing. The villagers there always implied they all looked down on you. I wish I had more quotes from that game, since the villagers were just brutal.

Still, the dialogue was repetitive even then, and there didn't seem to be an increasing friendship mechanism to unlock new dialogue either. I think you may have just been younger, so it seemed less repetitive, sort of how things seem bigger when you're little. Of course, I could be wrong

Funny story: I had a Gameshark back then and when I finally got bored of my town, I decided I was going to put in all of my "dreamies", so I could have my ideal town. What I didn't know was the GS would only change the appearance of the villager, so when I went to talk to sweet little Savannah, the cranky male voice and dialogue came out! I was so sad!

I had this happen before... I loved Sprinkle and I thought that I would enjoy having her in my town. I found her a bit boring at times..and just never connected to her if that makes any sense. It made me feel bad and now that she is gone and I see fan art of her it makes me want her again... but it just is because she is cute and it really sucks that we never connected.

Also I Francine.. I don't know why but we also never connected which is unfortunate because I still have Chrissy and it makes me feel bad that they are not together but I don't know. Maybe another time in the future it will work and I will love and connect to Francine..?

I always feel bad though when I don't like this villager that I have built up that they were a dreamie but then it doesn't end up working how we all thought it would. It makes me feel sad for not liking them lol.

 

[ceruleanhail]

Ankha. I gave her to a friend with an all cat town in the end.

Flip. He was in my first town for the longest time because I thought he would be totally ninja awesome like and stuffz. But I didn't realize he was jock until I got him and he was just a lot blander and less exciting than I thought he'd be. And now that I finally moved him out and got Hamlet, I know I made the right decision.
