I've seen enough reactions to Sims DLC to know what levels people are okay with and where it breaks the line so much the general gaming populace becomes aware of what's going on. Like the time there was a Sims 4 stuff pack for animals, but you had to own the actual Sims 4 expansion pack for animals to get any real use out of it. It was DLC for DLC.

We had lootboxes for Animal Crossing back in 2002 when the only way to get some of the NES games at the time were through e-Reader cards. But they never even came out with the cards for Super Mario Bros. and Legend of Zelda. In fact the game's password system was created in such a way that you could get basically any item be it furniture or whatever from a password EXCEPT for those specific e-Reader card games.

Me when I check out other people's islands and see just how many players had been screwed over by the "Gotta tan for hours to have your actual skin in-game" mechanic in the past because now they can just create how they wanna look from the start.: https://youtu.be/8aE4EEVJyZ0?t=54

The grass-wear system is still in, but you can sacrifice a villager to the Island to reset the grass back to a pristine state. And you can never get that villager back. The game will refuse to let that specific villager move back into town. They're gone.

The fact that you can seemingly be able to invite every normal villager to the campsite once you build it is already above what I had originally assumed the game was going to let you do with them. Like in New Leaf that feature almost seemed OP to an extent, given how that title was still made with a lot of the old restricted Animal Crossing rules in place. I assumed New Horizons would just like, give you their portrait to put on your desk and that's all the amiibo would do.

ItBreathes posted:This means the game'll be missing 90% of things if you pick it up after the servers go down, doesn't it Considering New Leaf had long enough legs that they put out a physical version of Welcome Amiibo with the update on the cartridge I could see them doing that with New Horizons one day. Especially if the updates go on for like, more than a year or two.

Glad they showed us what happens to Mr. Resetti in this game also. I think that was him at least, it was his theme song. The voice was different. Maybe it was his daughter.

Aside from the save-cloud deal the one point I audibly booed was when they said you could get exclusive items in New Horizons if you play Pocket Camp, which I've been good at totally avoiding for the entirety of its existence.

Seriously they're breaking all sorts of old "That's just the way it is" Animal Crossing restrictions/rules that I can't wait for the inevitable think pieces that are all "I liked this series more when we didn't have control over where villagers put down their houses and the grass barely ever grew back" and I'll be all like, that's nice...but I don't care.

https://twitter.com/doubutsuno_mori/status/1230673943385628672 I guess this is implying there's 383 potential villagers in New Horizons? Like at launch I guess and then maybe more will be added someday in the future possibly I dunno.

https://www.nintendo.co.jp/hardware/amiibo/game/acbaa/list.html Looking at this chart, the Sanrio cards won't let you invite villagers to the game, so those seem to (for the time being) not be returning to New Horizons, but you DO get their poster (a new version of the portrait I guess) it says. So you don't have to worry about acquiring those specific cards for now. All the other Welcome Amiibo cards will work in every instance though.

New version of the direct is up. They changed the part about recovering your data one time only in the FAQ section. If those on-screen texts that YouTube videos used to have still existed they could have just pasted the new info over the old one.

I hope there's a way to get into to the Rescue Center like there was for the Reset Center in New Leaf and City Folk. And the Japanese re-release version of the American version of Animal Crossing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ICn8-J3flY0 Is that a dirty magazine on top of all those newspapers?

Public schools are basically being shut down for an entire month in a few days in Japan. Nintendo please push up the release date of New Horizons in Japan for these kids like, I don't even care if everyone else has to wait a month to get it but at least we still have to go outside and do things that will pass the time until then.

As horrible as it might sound out of context I really like when we get footage of when an Island has been customized to the point you can't even recognize how it looked on day 1. Like by the end of the ad you see a player-made fairground that wouldn't look out of place in any of the old games. Like you'll still be able to come up with ideas for towns that you wouldn't even guess originated on an island landscape.

History Comes Inside! posted:You lied and got what was coming to you, no sympathy Sometimes they wouldn't even take no for an answer in the first iterations of the series. Especially if you had an item that they were trying to buy/trade off of you. Resetting was, in those cases the only form of defense against the villagers of old.

Khanstant posted:My New Leaf save is a mess. I started it in one relationship, we both animal'd the hell out of the crossing, we eventually broke up and I forgot my town for a while. Was dating someone else, they started getting into the gamecube or wii one and I was like ohh check out the 3DS one I also have it's even better... Cue them starting their own house and took to raiding the exes house, except obviously a starter house has way less room so there's basically just hundreds of furniture and clothes everywhere. At this point, cleaning out two villagers worth of exes literal baggage is more work than I'm willing to do for that town. Plus everyone cool moved away anyway. Games with customization can be pretty interesting time-capsules, and every Animal Crossing is no exception. A collection of Street Passed homes in New Leaf over half a decade can show how fads change over time, how people change.

ColonelJohnMatrix posted:I would guess the review embargo will probably be up on Friday, to coincide with the themed Switch release. A game like this has to be weird as hell to review. I remember back in 2013 people who got review copies only had them for like a month. You can barely get the Club unlocked within one month unless you know how to make money and unlock town-related options from day one.

The good news is that in the age of free updates/paid DLC, service games and various combinations of them, there will be news to go around for the title for a while. I mean hopefully they add more than just holidays.

Man what if it turns out there's no all-purpose catalogue? Or it goes the other way and not only is there a catalogue but no items you've held are off limits to purchase from, and you can order like a bunch of things at once without even needing to wait until the afternoon for the mail to arrive?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-3T6hHHJPVA Man this video would have probably been a lot more interesting for most people like...a year ago. I get the feeling the dude had already put a bunch of time writing and recording the script for the thing before last month's direct and it'd be a huge waste for him to just drop the video...but there's so many fuckin' things that were a problem a year ago that New Horizons solved so the majority of the video is like, "Oh jeez sorry man." The rest of the video is wanting so much control over the game it gets into like, stuff I'm not even sure the original titles could have feasibly done. Like New Horizons is already granting his wish with being able to not only put down houses and shops anywhere on the map but also move them at any time. Like I'll give you stuff like that could have been done by New Leaf. But when he starts talking about wanting control over the time of day while the game is running without even going back to the main menu it's...I feel like that could be possible, NOW but it's a weird thing to complain about in regards to the older titles. Because I'm pretty sure the older entries really couldn't handle something like that without things getting weird.
