They just want to fuck the animals. >>719712512
It's been a while and I can't really remember my issues with it, but off the top of my head. >It's originally a mobile game by GameLoft, so you've got season passes and in-game currency that you can purchase, despite it being a single-player game. >Everything is time-gated, and the randomized element of items dropping is additional time-gating. >None of the skills are interesting, and don't demand anything of you. None of the rewards are interesting either. A fish is a fish. There's no interesting collection of fish to try to collect. Every skill is shallow from farming to cooking to fishing. >Each character has a small intro quest, but it's a room smaller than a base Habbo Hotel room and you go through 1 line of dialogue and a meaningless time wasting quest to recruit them. >Each character has a relationship meter, but it's less fulfilling than a relationship in Persona. You just carry them around while you do the same shallow tasks, and the meter builds. >Game was originally supposed to be free after Early Access, but they ended up charging money for it, as well as 2 expansions that lock off content. Each of these expansions are the price of 2x Silksongs. >All of the characters seem like stripped back mobile slop versions of their true self. They butchered Scrooge McDuck.
I actually liked that game a lot and I despise nuDisney. A perfect "turn your brain off" game with a surprising amount of sovl that I honestly didn't expect from current year Disney.

They have actually addressed a lot of these in the years since early access and are now generally treating it more like an actual console release rather than a phone game. The quests have become more elaborate, the characters are no longer on time-gated schedules, and you can just purchase whatever materials you need from ingame stalls rather than mining/fishing/gardening whatever to lessen the grind. It's a much kinder experience now imo and you get like 500 hours worth of content.
Not perfect and it ain't gonna kill the behemoth that is Animal Crossing but I like it as a side piece.

As someone who doesn't play much of the farming/lifesim genre, is this even an achievement? The new animal crossing seemed ABSOLUTELY DEVOID AND BEREFT of content. I guess trying to collect furniture is a form of content, but it gets absolutely boring as fuck when the main way to get furniture is talking to these overly happy, cloying villagers that just all seem to have the same shared dialogue.
>take kids to Disneyland >its packed to the gills with disney adults(most of whom are Mexican)
They really need to make a whites only/only if you have kids day. Disney adults are freaks
>>719713937
This. It's funny to see /v/ all ganging up on disney adults when 60% of /v/ will pay 80 dollars for princess peach show time, and won't stop talking about squidling pussy

It's all dependent on what you grew up with. When you are as emotionally stunted as most anons, you'll be fiercely defensive of your childhood special interests (and often sexually interested in it, see Sonic fans or Splatoon fans).

anything is better than animal crossing new horizons
i still remember how tendie trannies and normie bitches simped for that shit game during covid and now the game's forgotten slop despite selling over 45 million copies
you can go to discord or nookazon right now and see how hard it is to find someone who'll trade items with you
most people literally just picked that game because of covid and nothing else
>>719715689
It's called FOMO and 'wanting to be part of the conversation.' It's a curious condition that seems to affect normalfags in particular quite acutely.
>>719716010
i'm honestly scared for the future of animal crossing
new horizons is gonna be the base for all upcoming slop because it was so successful
thankfully there's heartopia, floatopia, petit planet and that other hoyo social game coming up for casual/cozy lifesim with cute artstyle
>>719718367
No, but if you angle the camera right while they are sat at a bench or in a restaurant you can see up the girls' skirts, and they modelled all the way up to the crotch.
>>719717831
It's much improved since early access. They were testing the waters to see if they could get away with treating it like a gachaslop F2P phone game but it sold well enough on its own that they shifted course and it now just functions like a normal life sim with quests.

Animal Crossing is now Nintendo's most turbonormie, sanitized franchise; yes, even moreso than Mario these days. They have realised they have effectively cornered the market on women's cozy dollhouse games, so they will continue to sand off all the edge and soul to avoid offending anybody. You should see how hysterical and 'triggered' the communities of lifesim games get at the slightest provocation, Dreamlight Valley players included. Armies of women using the games as virtual therapy spaces where they can control everyone and everything.
