Hey! Gracie FINALLY showed up in my new town. Do you think I should feel bad and not TT back and fourth until I've unlocked the shop, or do you think I should just do it since it's been like 3 months and this is the first time I've seen her? This is my 3rd time having to get the upgrade for my game due to a game crash and then resetting my town. So I'm not really sure if I'm missing any excitement on waiting for her arrival since I've done it a few times.
I was just curious on your opinions. I am probably going to TT to get the upgrade because I'm tiered of waiting tbh
I TTed a lot to get the shop upgrades and it didn't ruin the experience for me at all. I find it more fun to play everyday when I'm not feeling impatient about something like that.
I don't think time traveling is cheating in general. I think people should do whatever they want with their copy considering they're the ones who purchased it. It's up to you, really. If you're in a hurry to unlock it, then TT. If you're in the mood for spontaneity, then why not play it normally? It might take some time though.
i feel like you can't really cheat at animal crossing. waiting for shop upgrades is bad esp when you're doing it again after a town reset.
animal crossing is a unique game for everyone so there's no right or wrong way to play in my opinion
I wouldn't consider time traveling cheating since it's an option the game gives you. However, I could see why people would say this is cheating since you are suppose to do four separate checks on four different days.
At the end of the day, it's your game and you should play it the way you want. Don't worry about others. They will never know unless you tell them anyway.
technically you're using a loophole to get around the "intended" random wait time but it's seriously so long to get gracie "legitimately." once she shows up for me i'm definitely tting, i did in my last town as well!
