Hopes and fears for the New Leaf update?

[Becca617]

my hopes:

-MORE DIALOGUE.

- I hope that they do add more island tours potentially, the same ones over and over again do get boring

- More furniture/items to collect

- Maybe even bring villagers back from the Gamecube AC? I really miss some of them :/

- PWP placement is more open, you can place them without having chaos with Isabelle then ending up not building it because it won't fit in your desired place :/ really hate that, lol

my fears:

- Since the bug catching at the island for making money is really common nowadays for people, I'm afraid they're gonna like lower the chances of spawn rates for the beetles and maybe even the sharks. I could barely find any in City Folk so i really hope they don't lower any of them. I'm sure they know about this trick after like 3 years

- i'm afraid they're just going to add some features in the game that like make it.. different. Like non-Animal Crossing-y, just something that ruins the game and makes you not want to play it because of it

- More bugs

@McRibbie When I first heard about the update for New Leaf, I was really excited for it.
But... I'm worried they're going to bring in the stuff I don't like from HHD, like some of the redesigned items (the flat-screen TV and the statue fountain in particular, as well as the weird shades they've used for brown doors), the rug system and getting rid of PWPs in favour of just placing items outside (which would make it incredibly hard to trade items) as I would feel it'd dilute the gameplay of AC:NL by completely overhauling it to the point where I wouldn't like it.
However, amiibo compatibility and a ton of new furniture (and possibly villagers) is still very exciting. I really want this update to be like Doubutsu No Mori e+, tweaking and adding some new features but keeping the basic mechanics of the game intact.
(Villagers moving in weird places is a problem but it's always been something I've worked around. I'm also not a huge fan of paths because they never sit right with me, and their supposed stopping of grass wear was debunked long ago in NL, so having better paths isn't an issue. It's a small rural village, not a huge metropolis. But that's just my feelings there.)
(Also, live KK bootlegs would be a neat returning feature too, guys)
So I'm turning this over to you. What do you want added in the update?

wait what? new leaf is gonna get an update? wheres the ink?

Only thing I can hope for that's on the realistic side and not confirmed are more and returning villagers.
That's all!
For example, all villagers in HHD but not in NL, the unused villagers and maybe, there's a small possibility of more returning villagers with the new Callie and Marie squirrels? I need Olive, Bow and such.

Btw, as if there wasn't enough confusion about the squirrels Cally and Sally, now we have Callie too =P
