It’s the Little Things

[Hesper]

the villagers singing in the plaza is. adorable. also I'd never expect the first pair I saw doing it to be Butch and Bianca but you know what? I'm here for it.

Today I caught Sylvana watering flowers, and then she walked over to a water pump, pumped some water, then walked back to the flower patch and continued watering.

Today I saw a honeybee flying into my conversation with Poncho, and he had lil clumps of pollen on his legs... and then later I saw a honeybee outside my house circling a patch of hyacinths, and then another patch that was diff colors, and alternating between patches

There are so many little details... I just gifted Katt something she gave to me the day prior and she even mumbled "this looks oddly familiar..." after getting it. Very cute! Also love that we can just randomly gift villagers from time to time.

Axel's birthday was the other day and I got him a fitness tank (because he's a jock villager) and when he started to wear it the next day, he told me how much he loved the birthday present and how perfect it was to "show off [his] triceps!" I'm glad the villagers seem more (ironically) human in this game!

Being able to move furniture and such half a space! Goodness, that felt like a long time coming.

I sent Bianca a cute retro dress in a letter last night, and she's wearing it this morning! She brought it up when I visited her:


I'm really happy that she likes it. I've been sending all my villagers gifts because it's so much fun to see their reactions.

That’s a nice detail

Bianca looks so cute in that!! Lolly gave me a pair of strappy heels the other day... I'll have to send her something back!

i love how soft the colors and lines are, nothing harsh. it’s so soothing and pleasing to the eye. i like crafting and customizing and plot placement and i never tire of vaulting over the river!

- How if a villager really likes a gift, they'll put it on immediately and add it to their wardrobe rotation :')
- Thank you Pocket Camp for allowing us to now have villagers in tiny hats
- Even though it's annoying to make in bulk, I like the fish food! In New Leaf I never caught any huge fish but now I have lots!
- I agree about the double arm wave, my heart melts when they do it lol
- Instant customization! I never did it in New Leaf because I would always forget about it at Retail lol. So many more options now!

I have a lot of complaints too, but the positives almost outweigh the negatives. :^)

The minute details they put into this game are amazing. The water shimmers, being able to see the rocks in the ocean, omg the wind!!! Seeing Cherry singing at the river melted my heart! The clams squirting water!!!! Luving this game so far!!!

I visited Vesta last night and she was wearing jammies and a night cap!!!! My heart melted ;____;
The way they sit on chairs in their house and read books is so cute!

I was thinking about it last night some more and wanted to make a new list here:

*how we are able to change the shape of the river and the cliffs
*that we can now plot all of the houses and buildings ourselves
*the fact we can now climb on the cliffs
*the museum is AMAZING and beautiful
*I like how the insects that are only out at night are asleep in their exhibits during the day. (it took me a moment to see my tarantula curled up in the back of the tank)
*how villagers do more activities based on their personality type. (my jock villager can often be seen doing squats or lifting hand weights. the lazy is often found resting under a tree)
*seeing my villagers working at their own work bench and adding more furniture to their homes
*the addition of paths
*it's an obvious one but the graphics are really a huge upgrade I'm often stopping to admire various things
*it seems we have more opportunity and control over who moves into our town, so less random move-ins

The villagers that read books read different books! For instance, Blathers reads a textbook while Orville reads a comic book. I've seen Katt read a music book with pictures of KK Slider in it and Sherb was reading a book about beetles.

The bugs that sit on flowers slowly walk from flower to flower in the little three flour clump.

When it rains you can see raindrops on the window in your house.

I caught Hamlet dusting the table I put outside the spot Flora will be moving in. That was adorable!

Bug and Fish description dialogue is back, we haven't seen this since Wild World/City Folk

I completely forgot it was in Wild World! Was glad to see it come back.

Another thing I just noticed is the different sound effects that you hear while walking when you are barefoot vs. wearing shoes

 

[Morningowl]

I really enjoy this thread because it so easy to miss little things , Might sound crazy when I read similar about new leaf I did find new little things and so did others.

 

[piske]

the attention to detail! like the chimney on one of my villager's houses is a flower! SO CUTE~

i think different types of shoes make different sounds too! ie rain boots versus sneakers
