Moments That Made You Sad/Mad

[mintellect]

When i first started ACNL i didn't know about dreamies and decorating your town and hybrids. I just played casually. I didn't give a cr@p about where villagers moved, and i didn't think any of the villagers were ugly (I had Barold, Coach, Olaf and i loved them all... how i did it i don't know). It would always sadden me when someone moved out unexpectedly, and i would never let anyone move if it was in my control, no matter who it was. I didn't search for pings though, just waited to see if someone would ping. I didn't even know it was called "pinging" back then. Anyway, then i unlocked the dream suite and got to see all these amazing towns. I also browsed ACNL tumblrs and saw more beautiful towns. I officially decided to turn around my ACNL life, but it was pretty much too late to turn back with all cruddy villagers in cruddy places, PWPs scattered in the most random spots, and my mayor's house location and weird map, and apples, which i'm not a big fan of. So i got a second cartridge and moved my best character, Diana onto it. I couldn't reset for a new map sadly because i was worried i would lose Diana. I ended up with a good map though, sadly apples again. I put lots of effort into my town, breeded hybrids like nuts unlike my older town which i did at a moderate pace. I learned about plot-resetting and made use of it. One of my starters was a dreamie (Poppy) and her home is in an odd place but i can deal. But to sum i put in effort to make Heaven (new town) a nice town, and in Startown (old town) i just played casually. I just kinda miss the old days because i just didn't have to do much and could play without a care in the world. Now i'm just sitting here waiting for Marshal to get his squirrel butt in the SPECIFIC 3x3 SPOT I want him in... playing was so much less frustrating back in Startown days. But don't get me wrong, i want to make my town beautiful. I just wish it wasn't so much as a hassle and i could just play.

When I started out with the game a few weeks in, I was walking around town and saw that Julian and Chester were having an conversation. When it was over Julian was all happy and Chester was sad I couldn't stay this. I was angry and hit Julian on the head with the net a few times.

Looking back now, I should not have been this angry with Julian.

Simon and Pietro always hint about how they'd like to move in and how we should be roomies and I feel bad that I can't let them bc omg I'd love to have them stay with me ; 3;

 

[PandaMasque]

I feel bad whenever the snooty villagers mention that they've been called worse things before when it comes to rumors. they're not so bad when you get to know them. ;0(

Bump! I want to hear more stories

when i signed on one day to see marshal in boxes, and tonight when i saw that lolly is in boxes i was planning on trasferrig her to my second town with my other DS but just to my luck, the trade wont work for some reason and it keeps crashing. also i agree, bathers saying he doesnt have the funds breaks my heart a little.

I really like Tabby a lot and I used to have her in my town. The first time she pinged me to tell me she's planning to move, I stopped her, and she said something along the lines of "you want me to stay? that's the kindest thing anyone's ever said to me!" while doing the crying emotion....

of course I know that all peppy villagers are programmed to say that, but just.... hearing it from Tabby, the one who's always called ugly or a monster or whatever... that's really kinda sad

Whenever it's raining in my town and Digby is standing there alone in his raincoat, it make me so sad ;; I mean because he works for the showcase, he has to stand there, but it's so sad he's standing there alone in the rain.

Digby makes me so sad too. Why didn't they make him a little sort of house or shelter? Come sunshine, rain and snow/freezing whether he is always there. I rarely go to the showcase and feel guilty. I sometimes visit imagining that it will make him feel happy. I have sometimes had my gates opened so that he can have a little "break". His sister working endlessly doesn't make me happy either. I am happy when she is at the plaza because she gets some fresh air although still on her poor little feet day and night

One time Colton made fun of Alfonso's catchphrase, so I changed it to "horse dung." XD

A little bit ago Pancetti pinged me to move out, and knowing I needed the space for a new villager (I have 9 but my campsite always gives me types I already have 50 of), I agreed. She thanked me for not getting all upset over her leaving. Then the next day I go into her house to have a little convo, and she's all like "I really need to start packing, I'm moving in 3 days" and I said "Good luck" and she was all like "Why aren't you stopping me?! Aren't we best friends? You know what, the whole moving thing was a joke. See you tomorrow! ^^" like what. I thought you were fine with leaving. It's okay though, having two Snooties ain't so bad, and I like her anyway. I'd rather get Colton or Nan out before her.

I sometimes wonder what the villagers might think of the tier system if they knew it existed. What they think of the way people trade and sell villagers. How they feel about being considered ugly and unwanted. It's like a slave auction ;_;

I get that kinda stuff from Truffles too, it's so sad :'(

It's been too cloudy/rainy for my character to get a tan :v

 

[Becca617]

It makes me sad whenever a villager pings me, requests something, and I say no and then they walk around so sadly looking. The lazy villagers get me the most!

 

[mitzi_crossing]

This may have already been said, but I find it sad when you demolish a PWP. Isabelle seems so upset, and if you change your mind and say to keep it she gets all excited again. I always feel bad when I need to get rid of one because of how she reacts

When Papi left without telling me

 

[kuseiro]

I don't have any screenshots of it, but I've been cycling upwards of fifteen hours to get Stitches out of my town. All of my villagers have pinged more than 3 times, some nearing 5..... except for him.

The Stitches in my cycling town has ALSO eluded boxes for nearly 250+ years. Aha stitches y

I kinda agree with how Digby is just standing there rain or shine... day and night... I didnt even know his name was Digby until I read the posts here. I dont really streetpass in my city so Digby is just there guarding an empty piece of shell day and night just standing up for nothing. THERE IS NO JUSTICE IN LIFE!

Usually Beau asks me if he can visit my house and sets an appointment. I am usually a very busy person with a tight sched and I make room just to check my 3ds for Beau's appointment.. And I end up just waiting for him and he just tells me he forgot the appointment. I have been tricked by a video game character.

Bump!

Oh! I can think of a recent one! When my game (physical copy) decided to unknowingly crash constantly and I had to delete all of my data and the only save that I had was one from back when my new town as still in development. Lost a bunch of cataloging, my fully fossiled museum, MY DREAMIES THAT I'D OBTAINED (POPPY NO), my fully upgraded house, my T.I.Y.... I almost had to reset completely and as soon as I saw Jambette in my town, I searched pretty desperately for another way out and thankfully I had used LeafTools to keep a backed up save. It was better than nothing.

My friend has helped me a TON in getting my things back, and having a pretty up to date catalog on MoriDB helped too. I'm doing a boatload of time traveling and what not, but as of today (this happened two days ago), I'm back up to the T.I.Y., my house upgrade is done, my fossils are completed, and I got my dreamies back and was able to successfully kick out some unwanted villagers

I was pretty frantic, then sad, then pissed.

Letting Fauna go was a sad moment, I've had my heart set on having a wolf villager from the start and I had many villagers come and go in the hopes that I'd get my chance but Fauna was probably the hardest to let go, with the possible exception of my last starting villager Bangle. A fair amount of my sadness was something I brought upon myself due to sending a letter to her every day leading up to her move with a different hybrid rose in it and refusing to change her mind but I still miss having her.

I eventually got Whitney, she's pretty great except for this bizarre trend she had of speciesism towards deer villagers. I'm kinda glad Fauna was already gone by this point because I'd have to disown Whitney if she started bad-mouthing her but it was still a bit uncomfortable when she started telling me that Bam is a little so-and-so that really hogs a couch or some other gossip about Beau, Lopez, and Fuchsia. She hasn't gossiped about other villagers, since my town ran out of deer she hasn't said a word about who I shouldn't share my couch with. Despite the apparent deer issues there was a time she sent Beau a gift to make up for something and later visited his house so they were finally starting to become friends right before he moved away. He was the 2nd to last deer in my town and she didn't speak ill of Deirdre so I think Beau might have helped her overcome her prejudice, which makes it kinda sad, like their friendship ended just as it was starting.

Bye Coco ;__;

It makes me cry easily in games like these. I always get sad when I get move away letters and it says that they're crying. It makes me really sad, and when it's a villager that I've had a long history with I question why I ever let them go, and wish that they would come back someday.

I think the thing that bites my heart out is the fact that I can never reply back to Mom. She gives me so many presents, and always asks me to write back. It makes me sad that at least I can't send a thank you letter.

 

[jiny]

I wish I could reply back to the Mom too.
