Villagers you keep seeing in dreams

No need to apologize! :) I enjoy hearing people’s thoughts no matter how long or short. Thanks for the explanation. I had no clue how popular cats were though I did notice that there are plenty of members on the forums that like a lot of them and I haven’t read too much about what draws people to certain villagers.

While I don’t care if my villagers are popular or not, if people want to have a town of all of them, there’s nothing wrong with that. I was just speaking of my own preferences; sorry everyone if it came out obnoxious or disrespectful. I think I can understand too why others would like to see less popular villagers in more towns. Also, variety is nice to see especially if you have the villagers that you see in everyone’s town but want to meet some different ones without having to invite them.
You definitely didn’t come across as obnoxious or anything, so no worries. I feel the same way about popularity, so for example, it doesn’t bother me that I have some very popular villagers like Raymond and some very unpopular ones like Jacob and Penelope. My original post wasn’t directed at you specifically; it was more that your post reminded me of something that I’ve been wanting to say for a while. I also thought I could help you learn a little bit about general villager popularity within the fandom. :)

I totally understand wanting to see different villagers because sometimes it does feel like the only villager discourse is about the Tier 1 superstars you see in every town. I too like to see the more offbeat/wild card picks people have in their towns because those are the ones that better show each person’s individuality.

I also didn’t mean to belittle your villager preferences, so hopefully you didn’t take it like that. The ones you listed are all great villagers, even Gaston who many people think is ugly/bad (which I disagree with). As for the cats specifically, they’re popular for a reason. The vast majority are very cute (although some of my favorites like Moe and Stinky tend to get left in the dust). At the end of the day, it’s all personal preference and it’s no surprise that people tend to like the cutesy villager designs in this game about befriending anthropomorphic animals.

Yup! I didn’t think it was. I didn’t feel like you were belittling my preferences either, no worries :). Just wanted to apologize to anyone else that might take it the wrong way or in case I worded it poorly or didn’t read the mood of the room. I just wanted to say that there are plenty that don’t invite villagers based on popularity and wasn’t trying to shame anyone.

Thanks for understanding and for explaining though. :)
