It really grinds my gears how we need 3 stars before we can terraform.. it's such a waste of time having to redesign everything! If somthing grinds your gears go ahead and share :3
 
How you can't just go back a step when going through certain dialogue in the game. Like when I accidentally choose local play instead of online at the airport and I have to go back and start through the process again. Or when I'm talking to Tom Nook about something to do with the island and I have to go through everything again rather than just clicking B and choosing a different option. Things like that annoy me quite a bit.
 
To be honest, I got the 3 stars without trying, so that didn't bother me. I literally was just slowly enjoying the game and then was like "well, I think I'll work on island rating now!" and I talked to Nook to find out I reached 3 stars 😂

But MAN do I wish we could:
-Store DIYs and plants (bushes, flowers, etc.) Seriously, we can fit sharks in our storage, but flowers? NO WAY.
-Craft in bulk (not JUST bait, but also when you're crafting in bulk to sell the extra valuable items or something)
-Put more stuff on the beach- bushes and non-custom paths.
-Change the color of buildings like the airport- goodness know it'd save people A LOT of time resetting!

And... there's more, but I can't think of it right now 😅
 
The fact that Nook Miles furniture, aside from being completely random (except for those tied to your airport color) cannot be customized nor catalogued. It’s such a pain that they didn’t group colors together. It forces you to trade because you can’t customize it. What’s worse, it forces you to trade over and over and over again from other towns because it’s not catalogued. Imagine wanting white street lamps but being stuck with an airport other than orange. That would mean you have to buy street lamps from other people SO many times because you’ll use it a whole lot.

This drives me CRAZY. I accidentally mess up on a dodo code, and I have to redo the whole dialogue! It's incredible how it seems like nintendo designed everything to be as painful as possible.

Yeah it's so annoying! It's especially annoying because I can't see any reason for it to be that way, even some other annoying things I can understand or justify if I twist my brain around enough, but with this I can't see any reason 🙃
 
This one is kind of silly, but when I'm trying to cover up a hole I dug next to flowers and it picks my flowers. I know I can use my shovel to avoid doing this, but when planting a ton of flowers, I don't want to put more wear and tear on my shovel to refill a hole I dug, and therefore opt to using my feet, which is the same button that picks the flower. Gets me everytime... radaradarada :cautious:
 
It bothers me that I have to share an Island. I can’t have the town tune be what I want. Can’t have the flag that I want. Can’t have the Island be named what I want. Can’t pick out all of the villagers that I want.
 
tool breakage still grinds my gears lmao - i’m used to axes breaking since that’s how it was in previous games except for the golden one but for all tools to break now, even the gold ones? i hate it lmaoo

Refilling holes doesn't actually deplete a shovel's durability! It's just smacking rocks and digging up items/plants that deplete it. Digging an empty hole but not actually digging up an item/plant also doesn't affect durability, so you don't have to worry about that either.
 
How you can't put DIYs in storage but Isabelle gets mad when there are too many items on the ground! :rolleyes:
Omg. This drives me nuts! Like of course your closet has room for like 70 full-on couches, THE MOON, enough wallpaper and carpet to satisfy the 1960s-80s, an entire Versailles' worth of bathroom furniture, but a lil recipe book's worth of DIY cards!? ARE YOU INSANE???

I think of items dropped on the ground as a type of display.. isabellas trash is my treasure!
