I'm so tired of raymond

[trashpedia]

While everyone is screeching over NMT and Raymond, Imma just let life and time do it's thing and wait until A) I find him on an island B) He randomly moves into my island or 3) An amiibo card is released by Nintendo and it's data is extracted and leaked online so people can make NFC chips. I think if Nintendo knew how popular he was, they would definitely release all the amiibo cards with the new characters as well so people would buy a bunch of packs hoping to get his card (if this happens I would actually buy an amiibo figurine of the dodos tbh). I'm surprised they haven't even put microtransactions in this game yet due to NMT.

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

That involves Logic not NMT!

Raymond is a small piece of a huge aspect of AC that I hate: villager popularity. Villager tier lists make me upset, regardless of why villagers are popular, the moment you spot one that you like or would fit in your town suddenly you have to worry about how expensive they are going to be if you don't want to go through the hell that is the game's RNG.

Also I saw someone mention that saying you dislike Raymond doesn't make you cool and...I don't really get where that is coming from, people can abuse "ugly" villagers and say how much they hate them but the moment someone else says they dislike a popular villager its a bad thing? Bleh, I don't hate Raymond's design, but there are many villagers who are more interesting I think (Eugene, Marina, Kid Cat, to name a few)

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

With forum updates there have been temporarily removed while they do stuff to the shops, probably other reasons too but I ain't reading that forum, too many posts in it now to find anything XD

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.

Did I say you couldn't have your opinion. No I didn't. I said people go out of their way to express their dislike constantly.

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 like the villager but this community becomes savage dogs over the ticket craze. That being said. I agree that the absurd amounts of tickets should be alarming to the mods. I don’t know why nothing has been said about it yet, but they are busy with the move and blaming them for it all isn’t constructive. People need to take a breather.

It's right there if you needed to see it again

 

[KeatAlex]

my point is, he's no different than any other villager and not worth 100m extra

Villagers are worth whatever someone is willing to pay for them.

I see it the other way around. Several threads have popped up all over expressing their undying love for the cat. Is there any reason why we cannot do the opposite or do our opinions not deserve to be shared?

Gotcha! Thank you! I hope they can resolve this issue. That or I just gotta be lucky with getting the villagers I want lol

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

I thought you can't reset your campsite villager? This game has autosave

 

[blinkcrossing]

Indeed, with Raymond I see the appeal, but marshal just makes me cringe.

This is interesting to me because I believe the complete opposite thing! I understand Marshal's appeal (and love him myself) but cannot understand Raymond's appeal.

I've honestly seen way more of the contrary than that on this site. On twitter, I have seen more of those professing of their love for him. I have already said you can share your opinion. My main idea of my first post in the first place was the fact that everyone is walking on eggshells around the forum due to the NMT problem. Nobody was trying to silence your opinion, nor did I even @ you in the first place. You can have your opinion and share it healthily. I don't get why you felt personally attacked by what I said, but to each their own. lol

Reset is an Animal Crossing term for deleting your save file and starting over.

I don't feel attack or anything by your comment. It just sounded as if you were implying that people cannot say that they dislike the villager.

I too am honestly annoyed in the same way with the people that are posting their love for the villager. Although, I do think that everyone has the right to share they're likes and dislikes respectfully.

I think he’s kind of cute but I could give any villager in my town some glasses and a suit which is really all about him that’s special to me. That said, it’s valid to like popular villagers! Hell, I love (and have) Cookie and Marina.

The only villagers I’ll actually pay for personally are Nate, Freckles and Wart Jr. I bought two of their cards as well so I hope Raymond’s card comes out soon for everyone who can’t afford these prices to adopt him!

I have a feeling Nintendo would be smart about it though and only sell a limited amount of them for a high price. Releasing a new series is out of the question because you'd only be releasing like 8 cards, and that's not really a card series.

 

[pocky]

It’s like Marshal all over again. And by that I mean Raymond has become the go to “let’s complain about x popular villager”

It takes like 2-3 hours to get to the campsite portion of the game... To have more than 50% chance encounter you'd have to repeat this process like... 25-ish times.

And even then it appears smug is not guaranteed. According to a poll I posted and after 200 votes, roughly 10% reported not getting a smug.

 

[LethalLulu]

I like raymond alright, but reneigh was the one of the new villagers who I fell in love with immediately. I am seeing so much of this compared to marshal, and oops, marshal is one of my dreamies. I fell in love with him suuuper late, though, when I randomly got him on my town in acnl. Just a flirty, confident tiny little twerp who drowns in flowers is just hilarious. I also fell in love with pietro after getting him in my town ironically. Ok now I'm just raving about the villagers I love...

But yah, I have a gut feeling there may be a nook miles glitch that is somehow going under the radar of the internet. Who really knows? Not me. I'm tired why did I write this.

 

[BigBadButterfree]

It's sad, really. I like Raymond's design and his name fits in with a theme I was thinking of trying to go with on my island, but all the excessive hype for him is just a big turnoff. I tend not to like overly popular things or characters, and his skyrocket to stardom just puts me off a bit.

Like I'd still take him if he showed up, but it would feel less special.
