Have you made any extra characters?

[Larimar]

I made a temporary one so that i can buy two pieces of authentic art from Redd xD
but in the future when my town is in better shape i plan on making a second character to make a haunted house! Not sure yet on what else to do with more characters than that

 

[Holla]

I have 5. Since I have a Sailor Moon theme I have a villager based off of the main 5 Sailor Guardians. I have yet to upgrade and seriously decorate their houses but I’ve been focusing on terraforming, inclines and bridges so far.

Four total in main town. Each house will be it's own theme/establishment.
One currently in second but will mostly like be four when I'm ready to actually develop it.

So far I only have my main character, but I might make an account for my boyfriend at some point because he seems semi interested in the game.
For New Leaf I had an extra character just to be a path slave, but thankfully I don’t need one this time around lol.
I think having a hotel character would be cool and fun though

 

[Ekuisun]

I think I always have a 2nd character in AC games so yes, haha. There are so many great items in the game that one house is never enough for me to do what I want. Usually my main character has a more normal or messy house and my 2nd character's house is the one that gets more thought put into it. ^^;; Either that or it ends up being mostly empty but with cool walls/floors.

 

[lPeachy]

Yes! I had a total of 7 characters between my NL towns lol
But in HN I’ve settled on 3 total for now
1) Fae. My main which I tend to just have fun with, not really themed.
2) Coral. She’s a cottage ore artist who has a tiny beach shack in a secret cove by my secret beach
3) Rosewynn. The local green witch/herbalist. Has a greenhouse and lives on the mountain in the woods. Studies plants like there’s no tomorrow

I’m considering adding a some new characters eventually though!
Ideas:
one on the beach to have a little seaside resort/hotel or restaurant of sorts
A school maybe? Preschool? University? I had a huge uni in NL and loved it

 

[Bcat]

I probably will at some point, but for now I can’t even decorate my own house lol

 

[alpacac]

Definitely planning to make an indoor + outdoor cafe for an extra character if Brewster isn't back I might make 2 cafes anyways since I love them lolol

Was also gonna make a 3rd character that stays in the tent cause I kinda miss it ??

 

[Clock]

I have another character in my game.

 

[cicely]

I liked making extra characters in NL, but I don't want to make another switch account, so no. Which is annoying because I wouldn't mind more houses to decorate :c
And weirdly, despite the island being larger than the NL town, I feel another house would take up too much space?

 

[spaceapple]

Yes! I have so many ideas for the other houses, I’m planning to utilize all of them. Right now I just have a second character using my husband’s account, and he is the owner of my neighborhood coffee shop. He’s not interested in playing himself, but he likes to watch me play as his character and decorate “his” coffee shop. Idk if this was true for the older games, but each character gets their own money tree spot each day, which is pretty great. I also use him to get an extra diy message bottle and the 300 bonus nookstop points.

 

[FireNinja1]

I haven't made an extra character yet, although I might at some point. I haven't really even figured out how to decorate my town.

 

[Cutiekuma]

You need to make a new profile on your switch and then start the game up with that profile c:

Thank you! That helps a lot

It's not that difficult, the account never has to be connected to a nintendo acc or email so it's just the name and icon

 

[udinafrog]

Maybe I will in the future when I have more items, so I can decorate in different themes.

 

[Arckaniel]

I'll make one for sure since I kinda will make a story for my island, idk how many tho AHAHAHAHA

 

[Kairi-Kitten]

I have all 7! 3 random islander homes to add to the quaintness and some buildings like opera/music house, garden house/greenhouse,Cafe and Restaraunt and lastly a bit of a fantasy visitor center parading all seasons for you to enjoy <3 working slowly on getting them set up : )

 

[kylie32123]

i PLAN on making extra characters just so i can get more nmt's...hahahaha....ha.

 

[Xane_MM]

Yes! I have two characters, one being myself as the resident representative, the only one that can go online and visit other people, and the other being Mary; She's my OC, which comes from my own very incomplete game, and mainly exists so I can play as a girl and make everything girly and cute without feeling weird about it.

Is that only when playing both characters via local play?

Yeah, when playing using the "Call Resident" app, anything the second player tries to pick up or interact with gets sent to the recycle bin. Also, their tools can supposedly never break, as long as they're customized once that character is played as again. It's a strange design decision, but seems to help with altering the island.

(need that moai lol)

I have a moai statue that I don't think I have a good place for, so I'd be fine giving it to you.

It's not that difficult, the account never has to be connected to a nintendo acc or email so it's just the name and icon

Only downside of the non-main characters is that they can never go online unless they get their own subscription.

 

[artisansystem]

I'm considering making a second one, but I'm not sure if I would actually use them or have a place to put their house, so I'm sticking to my own for now!
