From the experienced villagers out there, what do you usually do during the first week or so considering the slow startup and burn of the game? Is the first leg of gameplay just meeting citizens, getting tools, and selling fruit?

The first like 7 hours is just staring at the Town Name screen trying to think of something.

I have never played an Animal Crossing game ever in my Iife before, but I really enjoyed the old harvest moon and stardew valley, so I picked up the new switch version. Very first tree I ever shake contains a bunch of wasps which basically sting my avatar to high hell and now he's walking around with a busted face. I feel like if you could lose at this game I'd have lost.

Getting stung the gently caress up is pretty par for the course for AC imo

Yep. Donate some bugs/fish to Nook and I think after 3 or 4 he gives you a recipe for an ax

I'm having a real hard time making money, and Nook Tickets are an absolute grind. I went to my first exotic island and it net me about 6,000 Bells. I'm walking around in underwear and a vest cause I can't afford anything snazzy or stylish, I put my bells towards trees / flowers and my tickets towards flights. I have the pocket and tool wheel upgrade. Any tips?

Stop doing that? I dunno, just grabbing fruit from islands and selling whatever fish/bugs I get, I prob generated close to 60k bells in a couple hours. How much money do you need?

Qubee posted:

I want to pay off the house loan. And I buy trees and flowers because I want a reliable wood income a few days from now, so I'm making a designated forestry area. Then the flowers I just spam all over the place because it gives tickets. I've already got the museum constructing, and I just need to find 30 nuggets for the shop upgrade. And some bird washed up on my beach but hasn't moved, so I figure he'll do something tomorrow.

I guess my first island was a dud cause they had the same fruit as my home island. I can imagine I'd have gotten way more money if I found non-native fruit.


I was on the game for about 6 hours today, I just find the same fish and bugs. It's always common white butterflies and tiger butterflies. There's this cricket noise I keep trying to track down cause I wanna catch it but I can't find out where it's hiding. My fish varies between 4-5 species.

I mean, the game has been out for like, 2 days now. I guess if you are really trying to min/max the gently caress out of the game, there's probably an ideal strategy but dang.

Why not just use the storage in your house? Unless you just don't have that unlocked yet.

My house storage may be full of a lot of other stuff :v:

Also, I invited 3 villagers to join my island, so I get a prompt about their houses the next day?

Is the "villager that you can't stand" solution still to just ignore them until they leave?

I will sacrifice my "talk to villagers" nook miles if it means getting rid of them.


I thought I something about being able to talk to Isabelle about "fixing" problem villagers, and I assumed that meant getting black bagged and disappeared off the island.

Snake Maze posted:

In New Leaf you could talk to Isabella about a villager's behavior to reset their catchphrase in case someone made them start saying cusses or something. People said it made them more likely to move out but honestly that just feels like an urban legend to me, I've never seen any real confirmation for that and I don't see why they would add that feature to what's ostensibly just a parental control sort of thing. I don't know if they give you more direct control here but I wouldn't be surprised if it's the same thing.

Ah, nuts. Guess I'm gonna chase Rocket around all day smacking her with a net to see if that works.
