I feel a little stuck.

I vented about this on tumblr but I kinda just wanna go somewhere where people could give me advice or an opinion without issue.

So basically I've had this town for almost a year now and it has a lot of great villagers, all of them are adopted villagers I got through luck. It has a rebuilt train station, a town hall, and a lot of neat stuff like the emporium and whatnot

But recently the idea of getting rid of it came to mind and I shrugged it off. But now it's really nagging at me.

I realize its been one of my reasons why I've been avoiding playing it or not playing it with the right feelings. (it feels like a chore at times, or in general I don't feel motivated to even look at it.)

I don't really feel connected to it anymore and I want to change that but then I keep reflecting back on all the stuff I've accomplished that I wanted SO BAD but now I'm like... meh.

I've since ordered a n3ds xl (New Nintendo 3DS) and another game for potential reasons and for another town but I don't feel like playing on another town will distract me from the problem I have.

I know I sound super ridiculous and dumb overreacting but honestly I just don't know what to do but I feel confident in if I did do these things, having a 2nd game would mean that I could put my crap somewhere until I reset and THENNN I could also visit myself the amount of times needed for the train station... XD

What do you think I should do? Should I wait to see if any love comes back or just start resetting immediately once I get my new game? (either way I'd have time to think cuz my game wont be coming until at MOST the 21st...)

I felt the same way you did before I decided to reset... Once you get the idea you won't get it out of your head until you take the plunge and just do it. It's kind of fun to start over and rebuild everything from the bottom up. Hybrids, getting villagers, cataloging items, catching bugs/fish is all part of the fun of the game, but can be laborious at times too. I don't think it's a big deal since you can hold stuff or villagers you really love on your other cartridge. A lot of people say that starting a new town brings back their love for the game and they get addicted all over again, me included haha ^~^

if it's really nagging at you, maybe you should take the plunge and reset. maybe give it a week or two and if you still feel the way you do, go for it. restarting my game was what got me really hooked on it after not playing for half a year and i've been playing every day since. i've really enjoyed building my town and making it better than my last. :>

Also I just noticed apparently you're not supposed to make threads like this and I apologize, but if it's bothering you (the staff) so much just lock it.

But it feels screwed up to me that we have to put ourselves in some cluster of people with the same problem and probably be overall ignored most likely over the other people.

BUT ANYWAYS I think you have a great point Delibird. Thats why I wanna reset and I've done it before but I guess this time I'm a little more hesitant... but it's not nothin I can't get back. It's just gonna take a lot of back breakin TO get back

Believe me, I know that feeling. Before the current town I have right now, I had a town that I tried so desperately to stay attached to. The feeling of resetting kept shadowing over me for MONTHS, but I kept ignoring it. When I finally built up the guts to do it, it was the best decision I have ever made on that game. My new town is 100% better and it opened an entire new window of experiences. I thought I would miss it and regret my decision, but nope, not at all. I'm so happy I have Starfall now.

I have those times for sure, What keeps me interested though, is that all my alt characters and villagers are in-twined in a little story ive come up with. It just helps me add more depth to the game, since the bare game itself is a tad shallow.
