Let's come clean here: How many of you have used a guide for this game?

[Lippysue]

Yes, I have used guides for hair, coffee at the roost, hair styles and any more that needed and I don't feel guilty in any way at all.

 

[TykiButterfree]

Of course. I used a guide when I first started playing so I could pick a cool face for my character. I also like to check out what kind of furniture is available to see which ones I would like to work towards getting. Animal Crossing is one of the few games I find it is worth it to buy a player's guide.

 

[Miii]

I like getting things done quickly, so I use guides xD Plus I don't think I'll ever remember which answers to Rover's questions give you which face.

 

[Garrett]

I use Thonky to look up Redd's art, birthday presents, coffee preferences and how not to end up with spiky orange hair.

The rest I've figured out.

 

[katysu]

I've always used guides, since acww days when I called my first town 'home' - in answer to Kappn's question as to where I wanted to go.
I certainly don't feel guilty about it, I get more out of the game by using guides. Saves a lot of frustration, especially for some of the events and for Gracie fashion checks (finding out what styles clash the hard way does not appeal to me).

I do see that villagers give a lot of info during everyday dialog & its possible for example to get their coffee preferences without a guide.
Its a matter of choice. Can be more of challenge to play without them, but well I do use them, even now 5 years into the game. (incl the one for coffee).

I think guides are necessary in some occassions like looking at furniture to see what you want. Plus they save time and bells Like refurbishing or Redd's tent. Then there are features that don't really require guides if you want to play authentically, like flower breeding or villager information (especially the coffee orders). I have used guides for both of my towns because I focus on my town and home themes rather than actual gameplay. I would love to get another NL game and play it authentically, but I don't have the money or the time when I can barely make time for two towns xD I also want to start a WW town but I don't want to delete my character, even though I want to start completely over, so I'd need to buy another WW game but I don't have money for that. I'd definitely make time for that game though.

 

[rainfalls]

i've used a lot of guides oops, i also like to just read through guides whether i know about the things in it or not when i'm bored

 

[Sweetley]

I use(d) many times guides, I guess without them, I would be kinda lost in the game.

 

[Madaiu]

I use them all the time. To choose my mayor's hairstyle and color. To choose a birthday gift for my villagers. To help with working at Brewster's cafe. And, when I was filling the Museum, I used one to not get suckered into buying fakes from Redd.

I'm pretty sure there are other guides that I use, but can't think of at the moment.

 

[Vonny]

I didn?t really use a specific guide. I did my own independent research when I wanted to know something... does that count?

 

[Vulpixy]

Considering the sheer number of items, events, neighbors, fish/bugs, and customization for pretty much everything looking up guides to help along the way is almost a necessity... Especially for those like me who want everything to be perfect

 

[mimituesday]

i don't know why there's guilty for using guides... that's what they're there for and it's not bad to want more information or to learn about how things work

 

[Reginald Fairfield]

I do own the Prima 4 in one guide. It also cover Mario Kart 7, and Link Between Worlds. Lots of errors in there. Very confusing caf? section, but the calendar is nice.

 

[Elephantmarshmallow]

I use guides a lot because I get curious and don?t always know how to do/get things. Most of the time they?re for little things like villager personalities, how to get silver/ gold tools, flower hybrids, etc.

 

[Keldi]

Guilty of guides just sounded kinda funny in my head. 'Cause they start with the same "gu" sound. The yes/no options were funnier in my head ^~^"
Again, don't wanna come off like I hate guides. I use them a lot ^_^ I was just curious about how many of us use guides

 

[Moon Witch]

i use the app and google ^^

 

[Lemonsky]

I use guides all the time and I don't feel bad about it. It means I don't have to struggle excessively to find out about certain things and it reduces the amount of mistakes and accidents.

 

[Corrie]

Heck yeah. I don't have time anymore to mess around.

 

[bananora]

Oh, absolutely. I wouldn't be lost without guides, however it's just the little things that I check when I use them. I shamelessly use one for Redd's art (unfortunately I do not have an artistic eye and cannot spot the mistakes most of the time), to check efficient hybrid combinations, and which bugs/fish I can catch that month.

 

[Sapphire Moon]

I used guides for crazy redd art to know which are fake, the hair guide for shampoodle, hybrid combination guide to know how to breed flowers and I have used gracie fashion check guide to know which theme the clothes are.
