I have recently reset my town and I've started decorating it with paths and stuff, but everything just looks off. Could an expert please come visit my TOWN (not dream address) and tell me what went wrong :( 10 tbt for the first person who can give me advice
 
Ive been playing the game since 2014 and have soon 500h of gameplay (and the golden badge), I already used many paths in my village. Maybe Ill be able to visit your village, Id recommend you to visit mine as well so you get an idea about the types of paths I use c:
 
Could you both come? I will give you the same reward. Added you guys as well
 
I'll just tell what I do? Mby that might help?

I always start off with designing a skeleton for my path, basically I just lead a simple path to all the locations I want it to go to. It's a simple start and it lets me see where there is space for pwps and stuff. At this point I also plan villager locations. I usually have some sort of an idea for some villager locations, for an example I might want a couple villagers living near each other or forming a small town area, just look at what areas look good for houses. After these steps I usually get in the villagers and then elaborate on the path, decide the width of it and whether it differs somewhere. I also start planning the areas around the paths. Basically just decide what pwps go where, but at this point I also start planting a lot of bushes and trees to support a path. And then eventually my town is done.

Anyway, my tip is to start simple and then elaborate on it later. Also, imo it's important to plant a lot of bushes and trees. They add depth to your town and also support paths nicely.

Anyway, I have over 2000h playtime and have 3 towns so I guess I'm an 'expert' but unfortunately I don't have a working 3ds so can't visit atm.

Thanks for the suggestion! I had already made almost most of the path so I'm good on that.
 
having the trees in your town be only money trees, gets em everytime :cool:
 
Yasss! I was planning on planting a gold tree orchard or something.

lol also having bamboo around the outer-most edges of the town is a neat thing to have, make sure to surround them in flowers so they dont make a mess
