as i said, it tries to TEACH YOU about common aspects of life without being one of those gay learning games. And if you havn't noticed, the fish are in high detail...nephewjack said:
My point is:
THIS IS A SIMULATION of real life, except a place where you can make a difference. Its like sims except more of an 'ideal world'
Its facinating to watch seasons progress as it does in real life.
And these 'chores' are fun if you dont over use them
Quote from Algore (when he was a kid and worked on a farm)
"It was so... different back then. Back then, I hardley knew the differance between working and playing"
This is the aspect that is introduced in the game.
And also, if you like RPGs, or games you advance in, this is a great game for that.
So my absolute point is:
That this game is pretty much real life (in harmony), and if you dont enjoy life, then you might as well not play this game.
I don't want to play a game where all you do is live. I do that already. It's called the real world. People are realizing that a video game's supposed to entertain you because it's an escape from real life, and playing a fake real life isn't all that it's made out to be.Palad said:
At least in the Sims you can do stuff like light people's houses on fire to make it less mundane.
Well Animal Crossing is a fantasy world.nephewjack said:
Ok?
Let me give you some examples about how its better/ different than the real world
Can you find fossils by just looking at cracks on the ground?
Can you fish and catch one within seconds
Do you ever cut trees down in real life?
Do you buy furnature yet and redecorate your room very so often?
Do you dontate things to the museum very often?
DO you craft your own design (LIKE Ables)
Do you catch bugs?
Do you buy stock (TURNips)?
I could keep on going.
But you get the point
Animal crossing is a MADE UP life
Life enhanced
Like vitamin water- enhanced water.
My point-
You cant REALLY compare this to the real world, but you can in a sence. It has the 'real life' feeling to it. But there are many things that you dont do/cant do in real life
Things that summarize events in real life.
Thats why its best not to play ACCF too much...
You should take 3 fossils every day.
Catch bugs.
Do things that you usually dont/cant do in real life.
If you call being superman a chore, then just get out of here...
You're saying that in AC, you're Superman?Palad said:
BAHAHAHAHA.
Sure, it's different from the real world, and real life would be exciting if you could do those things, but in a game, they're not fun. Digging up fossils, for instance, in real life would be awesome, but when you press the B or A or whatever button and your character shoves a shovel into the ground to get a fossil, it loses the excitement factor.
Basically, my main point is:
AC is basically a video game that tries to simulate real life. It also tries to enhance real life by adding things you can't do in real life, but reduces them to arbitrary tasks because they can't feasibly pull them off in such a game.
AC is supposed to be an adventure...nephewjack said:
why do you play video games for anyways then? All videogames 'make you escape from life'
Its just the preferance of which games you like.
And it adds a feel to it because its 'simple' yet complex
the complex version is Sims...
and the target for this game is family
Like a 8 year old with a 11 year old sister, and two 40 year old parents
Just an example
But whatever,
You know what.
You're too stubborn.
You win
This game just isnt for you... so you can use every aspect of it against me.
So obviously you dont know how fun it is...
If someone just said SSBB was a platform fighting game, it probably wouldnt make you excited. wHAT WOULD make you excited is playing it.
I owned Wild World. CF is WW with a city slapped on it.Palad said:
And God knows we need more "family friendly" games.
AC does not allow you to escape from life. It is essential another life where you do nothing but tasks with little reward.
Good night.
Watering flowers was a chore, but once you had the gold can it wasn't a big deal.
In the new games grass wear changes this, to keep the grass alive you need to water flowers EVERY DAY. It becomes boring and takes from the time I spend on it, if it wasn't such a big deal I would have more time to make money on it.
