Who wants extra slots for villagers??

[IslaYuka]

It’s very very very unlikely it could happen in an update but who else would love to have more villagers than 10?

I would LOVE this. It’s so difficult making choices about which villagers I want the most sometimes.

It sounds like a good idea, but I don't really think Nintendo would go for it! I'm sort of in between on whether or not I would like the idea. On one side, more villagers you can hang out with! On the other side, I don't really know where I'd put all the extra homes on my island. I guess I'm fine without it, but the chance for more villagers would be great!

I've wanted 12 total since the beginning but I don't know how I'd feel about them adding villager slots midway through the game I'm already worried enough that they'll introduce another permanent building and I wont be able to fit it anywhere.

Ive decided to make rental houses for people to come and go

Same thought I had when I saw the thread title. I wish we would've had more to start out with (there were a few cuts from my roster I was sad to make), but I don't like the idea of adding new buildings and homes as updates after letting us have terraforming for months.

There's also the fact that the villager personalities have been so watered down by the mediocre dialogue and the hours and hours of small talk you have to sift through every single day it seems like. Extra villagers are just extra chances to go through the same "wow you dug up a lot of fossils yesterday!" stuff.

All in all, I feel like adding more plots at this point would be more of a headache for most people unless Nintendo gave us larger islands, or unless they really overhauled the dialogue and made it worthwhile to have that many villagers (expanding on the subtypes and hobbies for instance)

I’d love to have some 2 story condos to make room for more villagers

I’d love more slots, though I’m not sure if it is feasible at this point now since the game’s release. If they did, they could maybe let villagers move in with each other and allow them to exand to two stories or as a public work project (if brought back), maybe we could have an option to build a mini apartment or condo complex or hotel as @UnendingHope suggested.

I would love it if Kiki could move in with Punchy .

I really hope this never happens.

I can't stand ten!

I liked having the eight back in WW.

I feel OCD compelled to talk to all ten, every time I load the game.
It's frustrating.

An extra two villagers could be nice if they added 1) more dialogue and 2) more space on the island

I'd take more dialogue over more villagers any day.

Having 10 islanders feels right to me.

If we were to get extra house slots, I'd rather they be available as temporary accommodation for visiting relatives of our islanders (I'd love to meet Claude's doting grandma or Fuchsia's demanding parents) or prospective move-ins who are visiting friends of our residents (for instance, a cat resident could invite another cat friend over). I just feel that a different game mechanic would make it more interesting than simply having more of the same.

To expand on the idea, we would get visitors only when our friendship level with our residents is maxed out. And whether it's a grandma or a far-flung friend, visitors would bring special items. These would be parting gifts to be given to both the resident who gave out the invitation as well as the player character who has a part in playing host on the island. There could be different types of gifts, depending on how well the visiting animals have enjoyed themselves. These gifts could be mostly variations of the Nook Mile items that I cannot otherwise obtain on my own island or they could be something completely new and awesome.

I would love to have 12-15 villagers. I don’t know where I would put them, i would have to plant extra fruit trees/ gifting them all would take forever, and I have no ideal about the logistics for people with many playable characters. But on this issue I’m totally irrational and I just blindly want more villagers. I’d give up on this farming/ cooking we’ve heard about, the cafe, etc (I’ve never played an ac game before so I also don’t have the issue where the game feels incomplete or I miss old elements).

I dunno, I just love the villagers.

I think they cut down on the number of villagers to accommodate all the extra player houses you're allowed to build. It would be nice if you could decrease the player limit on your island in exchange for adding more villagers.

 

[Louise_]

That would be a nice island I would love to have more villagers

 

[g u a v a]

i would love a single additional slot. i liked how in new leaf you could have only 9 villagers and have one floating space if you wanted more.

 

[Rosch]

I would like to increase it to 12 or 15 just because. 8 of which are probably jocks and cranky.

 

[heaven.]

It would be nice to be able to have 2 of each personality type living on my island, but I'm content with the amount of slots we have now as well.

 

[Che5hire Cat]

Having two or five more extra plots would be really helpful. Due to the fact that you have to limit your dreamies to only 10, I have to make often frustrating decisions which villager should stay and which I let go.

 

[Loreley]

I'd be happy with just one another slot but two more slots would be perfect. I always thought it was a cool idea that the 10th villager is optional, so why not make the two extra plots optional as well?

Same with extra buildings. I rarely buy from Kicks, so if he ever gets a shop, I'd have to decide if I want to get it built or have him be a occasional visitor, just like before.

With this game being all about customization, I sure miss some options regarding whether you want to get a building or a upgrade a building.

I'd love to have more villagers but my island is full
