I'm so tired of raymond

[kemdi]

My first thought about Raymond is how many bells I can get for selling him. Other than that, he's another villager. I don't hate him though.

Just watch Raymond going to lead Nintendo to include micro-transaction in their next AC title because these people enjoy paying real money for NMT on Ebay.

Their selfish greed is going to damage AC for the rest of us! That the big picture that no one here seem to realize at the moment. Nintendo aren't dumb, they want to make as much money as possible. This is why I have little faith in society. I wanted to go online and help people since my town has rose, cherries, peaches, and etc... but seeing the online community just makes me want to social distance myself from everyone. Even in this time of Covid-19, people just can't help but be greedy.

There are still good people on here at least though it seem the people that play this game the tradition way are the minority.

Gorillas and hippos are severely underrated and far superior imo. I bought all my villagers amiibos online a year before the game released because I'm not messing with the headache that comes with adopting.

Will someone explain what tickets are and how to get them?

I was never fond of Marshall or this kat it's pretty wierd lol! I love julian because hes a unicorn... I think that's understandable

I liked him from the first time I saw his picture. I thought he was cute and unique looking with the heterochromia and glasses. I also liked his grumpy little frown, since I've always liked "grumpy" characters since I was a kid. (Donald Duck, Eeyore, Grumpy Care Bear, Oscar the Grouch, Squidward, etc.) Also my dog has heterochromia so that makes him feel even more special.

That being said, Raymond was not my most desired villager for NH even though I was hoping I'd run into him eventually. I was way more set on Reneigh and Audie. But then I got Raymond as my first camper and I was crazy excited. Then after talking to him a bit I wasn't so sure I liked him, LOL. But I think I was just surprised at how different the Smugs feel in this game compared to NL, because after a few more days I really like him a lot (even if he makes me facepalm sometimes, lol).

So basically I like him a lot, but I would never have gone through extreme measures or spent tons of money (miles) to get him.

Pfft, 450 NMT for Raymond is nothing, I saw someone buy him for 900+ nmt

 

[Corrie]

I'm just more surprised that NMT are the popular selling item. I personally couldn't care less about them. I don't understand why everyone is practically killing each other over them.

 

[Sunnydere]

Did Raymond steal your star bits?

I think people are a bit overzealous in trying to get him too, but... it's pretty amusing to me? In any case, people are going to want who they want, you're just pushing against the tides.

 

[Zura]

You can have your opinion. But the nastiness of this community over a cat is astounding to me. I also don’t understand the urge for everyone to announce their dislike of something popular.

I have every right to voice my dislike for a villager for the exact same reason everyone else has the right to voice their love for him. Raymond's colors alone are beyond bad. He has a second tail on top of his head (either that or icecream...) His eyes are huge with tiny pupils making him look clinically insane (eye colors don't help) Constantly frowning like as if he hates everything and the fangs at the end of making him look demon-like.

 

[Cosmic_Crossfade]

I'm so tired of him. Every time someone posts a thread offering him, insane amounts of nmt get bid within minutes. The last thread i saw has a bid of 450 nmt and hasn't even been up for 10 minutes. This economy is so broken. Nobody can possibly get that much NMT without duping bells.
He's literally just a cat with glasses. He's not worth 120m.
I thinks something needs to happen to stop this. All these tickets are not legit. The site rules say selling duped items isn't allowed, yet people are still doing it.

"Everybody Hates Raymond" lol

But in all truth, how are people even getting that much NMT? That means they have a bunch of NM but the game just came out last month? Was there a cheat or a glitch that occurred I wasn't aware about? I know there are already hackers and modders for the switch so...

 

[JKDOS]

As far as cats go, Punchy, Lolly, and Ankha are my top favorites .

I think because he is new everyone wants him. I was interested in having him before the game was released, but seeing the excessive hype for him has kind of put a distaste in my mouth, so I'll stay away from him, indefinitely.

 

[HappyTails]

I never understood why some villagers are put on the highest pedestals and other villagers aren't. But people like what they like.

There are dupe methods and hack programs already out that make getting nmt and things super easy, so right now the forums are in a flush of those who have hacked/duped to distribute the items en mass vs those who have obtained them legitimately. Tbh, it's obvious when someone is lying when they say they've gotten hundreds of tickets in one day by themselves legitimately, but eh. Eventually the market will stabilize when the forums currency (bell tree bells) returns and people use that again, but for now everyone has to deal with the after effects of first week dupes and the current dupes and now available programs.

 

[Loriii]

Raymond is cool but I'm not going to spend 100 or so NMT to get him. I'd rather just use them to try my luck on the island. Good thing I have two smug villagers that I like living in my island right now. I'm not interested in getting another one soon.

Aren't smug villagers annoying anyways? At least when they get around peppy villagers.

 

[solace]

You want to know the irony? I have Raymond (found him first island visit) but I am practically begging people on this forum for some basic lilies. I am so old school when it comes to this website. People are charging for basic flowers! I feel like I am in the twilight zone. I was here for the Marshall craze but this is next level.

PS- If you have lilies, I would like some. Seriously!

i think a lot of the hate for raymond stems from people who don't like how popular/hyped he's become! i know people who liked his design at first but started to hate him because of all the hype around him.

personally, he's not my favourite, but watching the auctions where raymond sells for 1000-2500 NMT is kinda amusing in a weird horrific way. it's kinda like the titanic. people are desperate and continuously willing to pay that much for a villager they want, so it's whatever! i feel really bad for people who have him as a dreamie and aren't capable of *obtaining as much as others* though, and i hope nintendo comes out with new amiibos and/or the inflation dies down.

 

[HappyTails]

This villager popularity thing is silly in my opinion. All villagers are special, great and unique and putting some on pedestals is just goofy.

I forgot all about the Bell Tree Bells lol Why did they go?

 

[JKDOS]

If Raymond is a smug villager. Why isn't anyone just resetting for him, since a smug villager is guaranteed in the campsite first? I'm sure a few hours of TT'ing and resetting would get you him.

If enough people get him through this means, it may crash the hackers' market value on him
