Have you ever rage-restarted your town?

[Shawna]

Well, I have. Here is my story. Keep in mind that this was before I knew about adopting villagers and all that.

It was my very first NL town actually -- the one I made on the day the game came out (a.k.a my 15th birthday). I was DYING to get Kabuki or Monty, who were my favorite villagers at the time. So, I just tried to test my luck to see if I would get one of them as my first nine villagers, but I never did. I got an unwanted cranky villager, an ugly one at that instead -- T-Bone. I wanted for TWO MONTHS to get him to move, but he never did, so I restarted until I Kabuki or Monty (Note: I got Monty) -- of course, this town is looooooooong gone, and I have different favorite villagers now.

I wish T-Bone was still a lazy villager -_-

. . .

Ah well, at least it's all in the past. I just got back from a three-year hiatus this passed December, and am very content with the town (Haven) I made on December 20th <3333

I had Odessa a bit earier, then I made Haven, then I deleted Odessa because two towns were overwelming for me, and I was and am doing so well in Haven! <333

Still though, T-Bone will always be one of my most hated villagers due to what he did to me during the dawn of New Leaf...

I totally understand the feeling. I'm so much of a control freak when it comes to town layouts, villagers, PWPs, etc, that I have to keep myself from restarting when I get it in my head that things are beyond repair, hehe. The town I had before my current one I did give into my frustrations, and I restarted- simply because I backed myself into a corner with Amiibos. I had too many and they're difficult to move.

But the T-Bone hate is strong. He landed one space away from my house in the same town I mentioned restarting. He's one of my mortal enemies.

Eugene moved out and I was so livid. I waited until the next day and I was still mad when I loaded up my town so I deleted it. lmao

 

[Corndoggy]

ive had people mess up my town but ive never restarted through fear of losing wolfgang, but sometimes i have wondered what it would be like to start from scratch.

 

[Abyrae]

I rage-restarted my first town when Olivia moved out while I was on vacations for a month and didn't play due to leaving my 3DS at home.

It was before the Welcome amiibo update too.

 

[Corrie]

I never have. I always put the game down and took a break because I knew I'd regret it. I almost always regret decisions I make while I'm upset or mad.

 

[Nodokana]

I have not done this. I put too much work into my towns at this point that I'll just deal with it.

 

[LadyDestani]

I can honestly say I haven't. I'm a relatively calm person so I don't usually rage over something like a game. If it's frustrating me, I'll either deal with it until I get it right or put it down for a bit so I can come back fresh. I know that if I ever reset my town, I'd surely regret it so the thought doesn't even enter my mind.

 

[CupcakeFrappe]

I remember my first New Leaf town that I had, I didn't so much "rage restart" as it was me being fed up with my poor house placement. I put my house in a place that was shoved in a corner where seemingly every villager and their mother wanted to move directly in front of me. After a few months I got so sick of it and restarted to my current town. I'm now in a nice corner where villagers can't move on any side of my house

 

[Snowesque]

Nope, still playing on my original June 2013 town! I have not felt the need to reset ever.

 

[Halloqueen]

I wouldn't classify it as "rage", but I did something somewhat similar to my first New Leaf town. I just found myself greatly displeased by everything in that town. I didn't like the town name as much as I thought I would. I had a few dream villagers living there by default, but the rest were a bunch that I really didn't care for. At some point it just bugged me too much and I saw it as more reasonable to restart, especially since it would take forever to get the ones I didn't like to move.

Worked out mostly for the best, that made way for my main horror-themed town which I love (other than the lackluster map, I chose it because it had Ankha and Lucky as starter villagers and I regret not just adopting them and having a good map) as well as another town that became an all-bird town that was related to the original town by name.

 

[Blood Eclipse]

There have been situations that annoyed me in New Leaf and a few happenings from other Animal Crossing games, but it never got to the point that I'd wanted to rage-reset my town and all my saved progress and start the headache of unlocking items and PWP all over again. The only times I ever considered resetting my towns was when I thought the names I had chosen were lame, and even then the thought of doing it all again kept me from deleting. I can't really think of any game that's enraged me to that point yet, lol, and if one ever did, I'd just drop the game if it caused me that much stress.

Usually when I rage something gets thrown at the wall or completely destroyed total destruction I'm not one to calmly reset a videogame lol
In all honesty I have not rage quitted in years the last time I think was a good 10 years ago in Pok?mon mystery dungeon blue rescue team when I got continually beaten by groudon In magma cavern

 

[Shinjukuwu]

I don't know if it would count as a rage reset, but I did restart my 2nd town because I didn't want to have 2 towns with the same native fruit (orange). So I reset and my second town of Tapwater has a pear as its native fruit.

 

[AccfSally]

I almost did because an unwanted villager moved into my town, Vista from someone else's town back in 2015.
I was so upset about it and had the urge to do it, but I didn't... I just found a way to get rid of him.

This was before the amiibo update where I could just scan him (Avery) out.

 

[Sweetley]

I did it once a long time ago, reason was that nothing worked like I imagined. Not only did I had a bunch of villagers where none of them was really a dreamie of mine, I also made really dumb decisions by placing my house and certain non-removable PWPs into spots which turned out to be not so great placements afterwards. At some point, I was just so angry about this mess that I deleted the town straight away out of frustration and in fact rage restarted (sort of) a new one. I was never so angry about playing this game before like I was around that time.

 

[cloudpvff]

I did it to my second town ever and i really regret it It was rlly cute and i was super proud of it but eventually i forgot about it sort of and deleted it when i came back and it wasn't as good as it was before so i deleted it. Im still lowkey sad about it bc i could have fixed it
