Poll: NH quality of life changes?

[skarmoury]

VILLAGER DIALOGUE pls give me more reason to talk to them I want DRAMA (and better personalities)
ngl one thing I wouldn't want is a new gameplay, I'm overwhelmed building my island as is and haven't focused at collecting art/bugs/fish at all jkjsdfsd if they added more things to do I would absolutely not be able to do them LOL

Now that you mention it, I would absolutely love to see old NPCs returning. There's a lot of buzz about Brewster's now as the weather gets colder (in the northern hemisphere at least, lol) but it would be so nice to see Booker and Copper and Harriet return. I admit I don't really miss Shunk too much, but I'd be happy to welcome any of the old familiar faces to New Horizons. It's a little frustrating that we have no idea what Nintendo's plans are until the month that things are implemented, though. I selfishly want to know when we can expect certain things to be done, haha.

I made a prediction before Redd was a thing in NH, but back in Animal Crossing Amino, I said that maybe Redd would be in another area, like a sea port, similar to the city in City Folk: and there Copper and Booker would recruit you as a detective to spy on Redd and if he sold fake art or not. But now I have no idea what Copper and Booker could do in New Horizons.

Shrunk was fun! I think he could still exist for future "emotions".

As for Brewster... He will come. I just don't think it will be a café anymore but something more fit for an island. I still believe the datamine that he will be linked to the museum again.

at this point i'd just be happy if i could refuse diys i already have from crafting villagers

And maybe the villager in question could give 10 pieces of a certain material instead where you could choose which one you wanted. Like...

"I already know this recipe"

" - Oh is that so? Well would you like some materials for another project? I have some around here you could spare, [catchphrase] "

> Wood!
Stone!
Clay!
Iron!

...Well that was just an idea

Did you ever own AC on gamecube or Wild World on DS? Those dialogues were drama city! Oof. I totally miss those savage comments... Good times

As for your anxiety over new content: That's why I said I prefer a new area. Your island will still be your island. I would be way more nervous if there was new gameplay and stuff FOR our island. I just want a break from my island

I would love for my villagers to roast me for wearing the same outfit multiple days or something along those lines.
I feel like if my island was any bigger it’d be a bit much

Yasssss, that would be so funny! Like: "[player name] is that the only outfit you own? Here's some bells! Buy something nice for yourself at The Able Sisters!". I wish.

But hey, Marshal did actually ask me once if I showered that day and I could reply with three options! This was in NH, so there is some hidden dialogue with friendship level!

 

[maria110]

All the poll options sound good to me. I would love to have crafting fixed so that multiple items could be made at once without having to do the dumb "LOOK WHAT I MADE!!" animation after every single bag of bait or iron wall lamp. But more clothing and furniture would also be nice. And more villager dialogue would be cool. Mostly I would like each villager to have more unique dialogue and less shared dialogue.

If there were fewer villagers, this wouldn't be so hard but there are too many villagers so I guess it would take a lot of work.

Mine do roast me for wearing the same outfit. I've heard it from normals, snooties, and maybe smugs.

To this day I still don't understand why so many of you are obsessed with fish bait haha. I know crafting is annoying when it comes to not being able to do it in bulk but... You want a true problem and nightmare? The damned Nook Terminal when you have waaaay too many Nook Miles and need to stand there for 30 minutes or more to get your cursed nook miles tickets. That's even worse.

 

[Tiffany]

Oh so many things. I think we should be able to store crafting materials in the crafting bench so it's right there when we need it(also make some way to store diys). Also bulk crafting especially for fish bait.

So many dialogues need to be shortened: the dodos, gulliver/vaar,Saharah(also can we please not have to buy things one at a time from her and have to hear her list prices every time?) Also Isabelle's announcements so pointless and time wasting.

Mulitple purchases from the taylor shop(this issue was a particular pain during halloween). Do we really need to go in/out of the dressing room to buy 1 thing at a time? Just make it so we can put what we want in a cart and buy it all at once.

Bulk buying at nooks cranny(let us pick how many we want). Same for nook miles tickets, one at as time is ridiculous and please put a nook miles machine in the airport(even if all u can buy there is nook miles tickets).

The camper move in system needs serious work. at least make it so once we get through all the crap we pick who moves out.

There are certain items that do not make sense as clothes storage just sayin(also why can we not put wet suits in those same items?)

More furniture and clothes/hairstyles would be great(the current options kinda suck. Would also be nice if we could customize bought furniture to the color we want.

Please get rid of the "landing" screen that stops all gameplay when someone arrives and leaves. This particularly sucks when you are visiting an island with many people on it. I can't tell you the number of times I have gone to an island just to get one thing and it takes forever due all the people coming and going and us being stuck while they do. Surely they can come up with some way to just have a pop up in the corner letting u know it's happening but allowing you to keep playing.

Some of these visitors can easily be combined with shops to cut down on rotation(Leif, Label who no ones cares about anyway). And surely there can be a way to allow 2 visitors in different places in one day(like gulliver and saharah or leif and redd). Please get rid of the snot on the turnip vendor, it's gross. just sayin.

I've had this problem too but I can fix it (or at least spread out the time) by redeeming the Nook Miles more frequently. With the crafting thing, there is no choice. I don't even make fish bait because it's so annoying unless I'm trying to catch a string fish or golden trout.

It would be nice to be able to redeem for NMT in bulk too.

 

[oranje]

I voted for more villager dialogue/things to do with them and more furniture. Right now, the villagers say the same thing over and over again, even to each other and I'd like if they actually had more to say and do with the player. They feel more like dolls at this point.

And more furniture because I just feel like we don't have enough sets at the moment. Lots of individual knick-knacks but not a lot of furniture themes, which seems like a big oversight considering how important decorating is to this game.

 

[0019293893]

There’s room for improvement with everything, I think. I’m sure Nintendo is working on more updates though.

Online play is garbage sometimes because it will randomly kick you off.
More events would be fun. Different types of events too. But I think this is probably the one I least care about.
Now new villager dialogue and options would be AWESOME. A huge update in how many conversations/ ways to interact would be a huge way to make it more fun. I don’t even try to interact with two villagers having conversations anymore.
Crafting can get tedious (please let me craft in stacks please), but it’s honestly satisfying for me to watch the crafting animation sped up so it’s not a huge deal.
Furniture, clothing, and wigs of course would give us more options for the island. I want some of the old furniture sets back, plus some ones from Pocket Camp. Even though they’re different companies, surely Nintendo can make it happen.

I honestly think the biggest thing people secretly crave is new ways of gameplay and returning old characters. Remember when New Leaf and games before had playable mini games? We want that! What about the island tours with Tortimer?What about Phyllis and Pelly?

 

[Maiana]

Is it bad I wanted to select everything??

I narrowed my choices down to villager dialogue and more furniture/customization options. Customization is the key to Animal Crossing, and although they have been pretty inclusive with New Horizons--I want more. I miss a good portion of the old furniture sets from the previous games. I also wish we had Pocket-Camp like items (the furniture in that game is BEAUTIFUL). In terms of villager dialogues, I wish they interacted with the nook miles items that we put down. For example: If you have the teacup ride on your island, villagers should be able to get in it. I think there's a lot of room for improvement within these two categories the most. The other things I definitely wish I could have but I can wait for them.

 

[Snek]

Villager dialogue and more furniture. Villager dialogue is a given. Many villagers, especially sweet/normal personalities are so stale. They need to give us more furniture...and easier ways of obtaining said furniture rather than balloon presents. And speaking of balloon presents... they need to be fixed as well. I still haven't received all the mush recipes and I keep getting repeats. Maybe they could re-work the bottles to not give you recipes you've already obtained. Well either way they need to fix QoL issues otherwise more players will drop the game.

Haha it's not bad you want it all, I tried to include the most that I noticed which needed improvement in NH, but I'm sure I could have included other things that are equally mising or lacking overall.

To be honest, as cool as Pocket Camp was with animation I thought some looked so awkward with them interracting with furniture. But I think having certain items be used by them would be really neat. Like the little pool with the ducky.

However, am I the only one that gets annoyed you can't gift villagers presents when they are sitting down? Absolute trigger for me hahaha...

Normal personalities have always been on the bland side, but they are wholesome and sweet. The personality that got butchered in this game are the cranky ones. They are so dull and boring now, ugh.

And yeah, the recipes overall I think need some upgrade because be it in bottles or balloons: It's so frustrating not getting anything new.

I rather wish you could buy recipes you already know, so you can give/trade with friends easier, and then because of that: bottles and balloons always have something you don't have if you encounter one by the beach/sky. I wish.

 

[DaisyFan]

Villager Dialogue - I don't mind with repetitive dialogue, but I would like to see more sayings. I don't like drama dialogue, sorry for that.

More clothes/furniture/hairstyles - I would like to see more clothing like a retro circle skirt, Oxford shoes, and more. I am hoping for more furniture and hairstyles sooner or later.

 

[dizzy bone]

I've also picked the 2 most popular options in the polls it seems - villager dialogue/interaction and more furniture. I'm pretty content with the online aspect of this game and I still enjoy meet ups with friends even though there's not much to do, so I'm mostly hoping for things to do offline on our own. I've always wanted villager dialogue to be pretty specific to each villager. For example, from New Leaf's April Fool's Day we know that each villager has specific dreams, hobbies, and even siblings. It would be really nice if NH expanded more on personal details like that for villagers you get closer with. Instead of Ursala telling me about some vague "pals back home" she can actually talk about her siblings or a specific memory related to "Ursala". I know there's default personal dialogue like this for each personality, but it's not not unique enough that I've heard it way too often. New furniture is also always welcomed, not just crafted for new seasonal events and holidays but items you can buy from Nooks or other special vendors as well.

I personally would just be happy if the dialogue never repeated again somehow or took forever to see the same one again. It's so sad that we ignore or villagers now unless they come to us or have a thinking bubble above their head.

And yes new furniture is important, but I feel like it would be "useless" until the left side room and right side room as well as the entrence floor middle room got expanded in size. I don't understand why they can't be upgraded.

 

[Licorice]

Online play could definitely use an upgrade. It would also be a great excuse to bring back Kappn and his family. There’s only so much we can do online. At least in acnl we did have mini games and exclusive items to earn that kept it fun.

 

[Tutle]

More events per month and more villager dialogue are huge changes that need to be changed! I get so bored hearing the same lines spewed from my villagers. Smugs and Peppy villagers are really guilty for this! And there are really not enough events besides holidays and kk visits to entertain me whenever I play.

 

[Shawna]

I'm surprised bulk crafting isn't a thing yet.
