Closing my island now - thanks to everyone who stopped by, it was a real blast! Very grateful for the instrument donations too. Now that I know people can learn the pitfall seed recipe from burying one on their own island, these are gonna be available to take next time I open

I'm just so loving frustrated with everything. All of the main things I want out of this game, the game teases but then is like "gently caress you, spend real money to get what you want." Sure would like to have my own island since this one is my wife's. Nope, gently caress you, spend $400 on another Switch and another copy of the game. Sure would like to be able to move buildings. Nope, gently caress you, spend 10 minutes logging out of your account, sitting in loading screens, switching to her account, sitting in loading screens, moving the building, logging out of her account, sitting in loading screens, logging into my account, sitting in loading screens. Sure would like to be able to have more control of the animals on the island. Nope, gently caress you go buy Amiibo cards.

I'd get it if someone had let their kid or their oblivious girlfriend play and they'd picked a couple of the prettier flowers, but this was not something done unknowingly or by mistake. Some people are just lovely. Now I feel like I have to track or note who comes and goes from my place in case it happens again, and that's not how I want to do this.

You are wrong to want control over the animals on your island. Otherwise I sympathize.

You're supposed to share the island with the people in your house. Yeah but previous games never gave you this level of freedom to customize your island. For pretty much every game before New Leaf, the experience between player 1 through 4 was never much different. New Leaf certainly could be shared, but it was a lot more affordable and reasonable for multiple members of a household to have their own system and copy, being a strictly hand-held system. New Horizons basically turns the whole island into your house, and secondary players end up missing out on a lot of options and customization from what it sounds like. There's no reason you shouldn't be able to have multiple islands/saves per console if you want. It's a lame restriction. Hell, Gamecube essentially let you have multiple saves per console through just getting a second memory card.

Is it a flaw that the game doesn't do it yet? Not in my opinion.

Give the primary player the ability to bestow infrastructure rights to others. Also, local couch multiplayer loving SUCKS rear end.

Also, I feel like a big reason it was a "staple" was because it was also just a technical limitation on previous systems. I don't even think your MMO comparison is apt - an MMO gains things by not being single-player. New Horizons kinda gains nothing by limiting systems to a single save.

I'm all for them changing it, but I don't agree that it's fair criticism to chastise them for not changing it. I do see where you're coming from, but it's just going to have to be one of those things we disagree on. As for the MMO comparison, it's spot on. Animal Crossing is a mini localized MMO. You're meant to play with others, be it in your home or online. If everyone in your home is in a different corner doing their own thing, it defeats that purpose. I will say we should focus on the valid criticism in this area, though: Nintendo's abysmal online services. I can chalk this up to Japan treating their online experiences differently, but only to a point. Most of the crap in New Horizons' online experience is unforgivable.

That's just the thing, it's a communal experience but apparently they don't want it to be too communal because there's no split-screen co-op. I mean, all of the complaints I have about this game could literally be patched in (but they won't be). 1 - Let the primary player give rights to other islanders to contribute/modify infrastructure. Hell, the primary islander gets a bunch of free recipes at the start that no one else gets. That sucks. 2 - Split-screen co-op with full inventories. I'd love to be able to play along side my wife, but... we can't. 3 - There should always be a visitor at the campsite and that visitor should cycle daily. Currently, you get one visitor about every 2-4 weeks. That's super lovely that the campsite sits empty 95% of the time. (Nintendo just wants you to buy Amiibo cards) Fix those three things and I could be far far far happier with this game, hell, I wouldn't even mind the one island per Switch. (These changes will never be implemented)

Splitting the max number of profiles per island down the middle so it's 2 islands for 4 profiles each feels like the best. Mostly saying this because I'm not sure how you're supposed to space this island out for 8 players. It was a big enough challenge trying to find a place for a second home.
