So I Just Realized

[meggtheegg]

Maybe this is a thing everyone's always been super aware of, but I just realized today that the personality types in AC are super gendered? Like there's no female jocks, crankies, lazies, or smugs, and there are no male normals, peppies, uchis, or snooties.

Idk if this bothers anyone else or if it's just me. Personally I'd love to see female jocks and female crankies and etc and peppy males or normal males. What about you guys?? Or does it make sense to everyone but me loool

mhm, different traits are assigned to different genders!

although it'd be nice for us to see peppy male villagers or lazy female villagers, i honestly don't really mind o: i really like the uchi and cranky personalities, though! (smug is pretty cool, too) it kind of makes sense, i feel like the traits fit the natural order of things in the game. maybe they'll add more variety in the future! definitely looking forward to it

Yeah I see what they did, it makes sense theoretically and all, but I do think I'd really love to see variation in it instead that kinda break that status quo. I think it'd be nice! I don't really mind or spend time thinking about it or anything really, I just noticed today and think it would be cool to see variation

it seems you like the idea of the variety of villagers in terms of personality~ if you could assign a personality to a villager that does not normally have the personality, what would their name be and what would they look like? you could also include a catchphrase or a picture quote or a shirt if you want o: just wanted to make this a bit more fun for you!

I think a male deer or wolf with a snooty personality and inspired by a ballet dancer would be cool. That seems really oddly specific tbh I know LOL I only just thought of it rn off the top of my head and the game doesn't really have any ballet related items anyway I don't think? But I think it would be really cute. I'm not sure what I'd name him tbh though? As for a shirt, maybe the concierge shirt, imperial shirt, pink argyle tee, silk bloom tee, striking outfit, or twinkle tee?

What about you??

ooh, that sounds really nice o: i should try drawing that out!

i'd be down with a smug female wolf villager honestly. she could have some type of punk vibe; would definitely wear the leather jacket! she could have beige and white fur, and definitely could wear some shades on her head for extra measure ^^ the tips of her paws, for example, would be white (along with the area around her nose), and the rest would be beige. and to be fair, i'm digging the idea of a smug female

For the peppy ballet inspired wolf/deer I was also thinking a beige but maybe with some light pink or light greyish blue/just grey accents! But I'm not too good with thinking for the color scheme of the villager, just the vague concept hehe

And omg I love the idea of the smug female wolf villager!

Also if you end up drawing something like that definitely show me I'd love to see that!!

 

[katastrophic!]

mhm, i'll definitely get around to drawing it once i actually get my drawing tablet!

it'd be cool if anyone else could share their ideas so i could potentially draw them in the future, too!

(also it'd just be fun to see what other people have as an idea)

I think there is some overlap.

Uchi is the female jock in a certain sense. They're very tomboyish and give a sense of being more athletic than, say, a peppy villager with their whole, "-sees your bee sting- Who did this to you? Lemme at 'em!" routine.

Snooty is the closest we have to a female cranky. Both are up late, both can get snippy, both present themselves as more adult than their peppy/lazy neighbors.

My two cents.
