Overrated and underrated villagers

Someone was kind enough to give me Mac, and I am not even ashamed to admit that I squee'd when I saw his little face. He deserves his own cult, but nope, he's not too popular at all. What an adorable jock tho.
 
The lazy villagers do seem a bit underrated. The most popular villagers I've come across are the more recent characters of various personalities (other than lazy).
 
Lily definitely: very adorable.

I believe that Marshal is really overrated, along with Merengue. (I prolly butchered her name, do excuse)
 
Blanche is another wonderful snooty. She has a pretty design, and a cool, minimalist house.
 
I agree on Erik and also would like to add all of the wolves. I can see how some people would like them, but it seems like EVERYONE likes them. IDK, they're not that cute to me. Underrated, I wish there was more love for Sparro (and all the other birds), Monique (she's so beautiful to me!), Agnes and Fuchsia (my 2 uchi friends, they're so sweet!) and of course, my bff Carmen. <3 Carmen. She's at the tip top of Tier 1 in my book.

SPARRO! My BFF in my original town, still going strong. He is awesome. Carmen is in my newest town, and she is waaayyy cute.


Anyway, so nice to see someone else appreciating Sparro.

I miss all my villagers who moved too, I understand. I'd say you can visit him in my dreamtown, but I can't pimp my dream addie with my town being what it is at the moment. :P

Yes, I love him! I llol every time I talk to him. I could never let him leave because he's such a fun guy! And I'm excited that you love Carmen too! Your town sounds awesome! ;D
 
Overrated: FAUNA, Marshal, Merengue, Julian etc
Underrated: Chevre, cause she's my fave normal and totally adorable

I've said this before and I'll say it again.
It's all a matter of personal taste and opinion.
Just be glad there are villagers to suit everyone's preferences and towns! :)
Makes things way more diverse and fun.

It's all a matter of opinion really, as it's basically based on looks. I don't think any villagers are really 'better' than another
 
Yes, it's all based on personal opinion and taste. Terms like "over-rated" and "under-rated" are not really appropriate because those can never be facts for villagers. It is ALL just opinion. No more and no less.
 
I think Ankah is over rated. She's cool i guess. I really really love Vesta! I think the sheep are underrated

Yes but there are villagers whose design appeals to a wider range of players. Whereas the ones we're calling "under-rated" are overlooked by the majority of people, for one reason or another. Everyone's entitled to their opinions, and we all bond with different villagers for different reasons. But as someone who loves some of the "over-rated" villagers, it bothers me when I think people are just hating on them for being popular. There's nothing wrong with a villager that has a wide appeal, just like there's nothing wrong with loving a villager that others overlook.
