Issue with Gulliver

[matt2019]

I’ve had Gulliver a few times since the update and haven’t seen him in a pirate costume yet. Did I do something wrong?

There's two NPCs now - Gulliver and Gullivarrr or something. You can get either, randomly, each week.

I heard somewhere that you had to buy a wetsuit from the shop in order to activate the ability for Gullivarr to appear. But I could be wrong.

Gullivarrrr is a separate, new experience. You need to have bought a diving suit.

There are currently 9 visiting characters, and each one should visit in a 2 week period. So if you are time traveling multiple days ahead you might be missing his spawn.

I didn't realize that they were now two separate entities. I'm not sure that I understand the logic to that versus just having the pirate theme be a seasonal thing.

Because normal Gulliver is not a seasonal thing, and people would be upset if he and all his special items just disappeared for a couple months.

I've seen both Gullivarrr and Gulliver when I was time travelling. You'll be fine. I'm not sure about the wetsuit requirement but I did buy from Nook's the first time I needed it. I mean, I won't be able to dive if I didn't

I suppose that's fair. But I've also only seen Gulliver like 5 times in my game so I didn't think about how upset people would get over his regular items not being given out for a bit.

I assume that pirate "Gullivarr" is here to stay for the rest of the game, just like diving, and isn't just seasonal, so we will randomly get regular Gulliver or pirate Gulliver on any given day, like any other traveling NPC

Since Gulliver failed to give me what I wanted, I hope that I'll have more luck with Gullivarrr. I want pirate stuff.

i actually made a thread about this. i didn't get their purpose for having gullivarr this early, when we could barely complete regular gulliver items. at least they changed the schedule for visiting NPCs. but idk, still it was weird for me. i think we could have gotten these pirate stuff some other way because they really are nice to have.

at least it's not seasonal.

Thanks for confirming this.

I asked in another thread but didn't get a clear answer.
