it bugs me how some location-dependent actions do the action in front of you, while others do the action to the space you are on


AC is determinedly clunky in a lot of ways. There’s so much that could be streamlined, but they’ve more/less just kinda stuck with the original blueprint. I hover somewhere between admiring the disciplined asceticism and cursing it depending on the activity and my mood.

I’ve been following the thread as I debate whether to buy a switch and the game

Having installed a new light fixture the other day and having a hell of a time getting things to line up, and having to plant some flowers in a different location in my yard because there was too much gravel near a retaining wall... I think my house is already an AC island

no house is to be deemed a “cave” unless you have the rammed earth walls and fossil dig floor, as I do

El Tomboto, Tuesday, 28 April 2020 23:12 (six years ago)

Every time you visit my house there might as well be a beardo in a robe saying “it’s dangerous to go alone! Take this”

El Tomboto, Tuesday, 28 April 2020 23:14 (six years ago)

Plus a stereo blasting KK as you usually do

El Tomboto, Tuesday, 28 April 2020 23:15 (six years ago)

sounds like your mc comes up strong on the cave side but might be lacking in DUDEDUDEDUDEDUDEDUDE

oh man i need one of those little tape boomboxes, it looks exactly like my old teenage one.

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Tuesday, 28 April 2020 23:43 (six years ago)

Yesterday my shop was selling a claw foot bathtub for 26thousand bells. You better believe I bought the damn thing. I dont even have a bathroom yet.

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Tuesday, 28 April 2020 23:44 (six years ago)

so does anyone have peaches? it's the last fruit we need and i told my kids i'd ask

Mordy, Wednesday, 29 April 2020 02:56 (six years ago)

I do!

silby, Wednesday, 29 April 2020 03:04 (six years ago)

As do I!

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Wednesday, 29 April 2020 03:06 (six years ago)

I got all the froots now, if anyone else is in need.

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Wednesday, 29 April 2020 03:07 (six years ago)

let me know when i can drop by plz

Mordy, Wednesday, 29 April 2020 03:20 (six years ago)

Mah gates are open now. Its 1.40 in the afternoon and raining! And theres fruits to help yrselves to on the flea market benches just by the airport

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Wednesday, 29 April 2020 03:42 (six years ago)

I have all the foots

El Tomboto, Wednesday, 29 April 2020 05:52 (six years ago)

kk vapor pls

nxd, Wednesday, 29 April 2020 08:31 (six years ago)

there are far too many problems with this game

karmic blowback for dissing pip and jane baker (Autumn Almanac), Wednesday, 29 April 2020 23:50 (six years ago)

Such as?

(Im always curious to know what ppl think are problems as Ive been playing this game since 2004 and it hasnt rly changed much in its basic structure)

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Thursday, 30 April 2020 04:10 (six years ago)

def lots of problems with it: can't craft multiple; can't craft from storage; dodo airlines UX is a dog; can eat multiple turnips but not multiple other fruits etc etc

still love it tho

megan thee macallan 18 year (||||||||), Thursday, 30 April 2020 06:53 (six years ago)

does anyone know how the invite camper / amiibo thing works?

Mordy, Thursday, 30 April 2020 20:01 (six years ago)

Agree on the multiple crafting/craft from storage thing fo sho. The air travel thing is apparently something to do with saving / preventing ppl from stealing ppls shit, but it should be more elegant.

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Friday, 1 May 2020 00:10 (six years ago)

today i got the World Map item and immediately set off toward my house to reach what i assumed would be the end of the game: figuring out whether or not animal crossing takes place on the planet Earth or in another world.

it's definitely Planet Earth. The ACNH island is on Earth. where is it, though?

let me be your friend on the other end! (Karl Malone), Friday, 1 May 2020 05:23 (six years ago)

it says world map, but it doesn't say what world. i think it's just evidence that we are a fiction existing inside animal crossing

Hackers (1995) (Will M.), Friday, 1 May 2020 06:06 (six years ago)

Karl, which island? Mine’s in the northern hemisphere. That’s all I’ve got as far as location, though.

mh, Friday, 1 May 2020 18:01 (six years ago)

oh, it doesn't show the location of the island, it's just a world map with the United States, all of the continents, etc. I guess I should have already known that the animal crossing universe is in the same universe as Earth, since the day/night cycles are synced to the same 24 hour cycle.

Man, some of the irritating quirks do wear you down. I was giving back the drunk duck’s cell phone parts for the 20th time, initiated the conversation with him right as a villager was “!” and chasing me down. Like by the 50th text screen, the villager just lost interest and left. I’m sure he was probably trying to give me a dumb cherry hat or something, but I’ll never know!

circa1916, Friday, 1 May 2020 22:00 (six years ago)

Duck needs to stfu tbh

circa1916, Friday, 1 May 2020 22:00 (six years ago)

I couldn't find his last part the other day so I just kept 'em, I'll miss whatever weird souvenir he was going to send me but I need those parts to build a giant robot

silby, Friday, 1 May 2020 22:07 (six years ago)

I made a fortune telling booth up the top hill hidden in the woods, with candle holders and a velvet chair and goth mirror, I cant wait to see what it looks like in the dark tonite.

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Saturday, 2 May 2020 03:26 (six years ago)

Got a red curtain wallpaper today and now that spare room I was unsure what to with is now definitely gonna be the Black Lodge.

circa1916, Saturday, 2 May 2020 05:52 (six years ago)

I’m making my own dinosaur museum in the attic because blathers keeps rejecting my fossils, but I’m mixing and matching body parts and getting a bit of a Doctor Moreau thing.

JimD, Saturday, 2 May 2020 07:15 (six years ago)

lol, love it

Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Saturday, 2 May 2020 23:45 (six years ago)

can't wait to see some of my villagers kicking about in "celtic away kit 09-11"

anyone messed with the flower breeding? fuck a blue rose. missing lots of purples also, plus green mums

megan thee macallan 18 year (||||||||), Monday, 4 May 2020 14:24 (six years ago)

I'm playing with flowers haphazardly. Purple tulips, pink and blue windflowers, pink mums and lilies, blue hyacinths.

Jaq, Monday, 4 May 2020 14:36 (six years ago)

Spent an hour yesterday with a coworker's 5 year old on my island while simultaneously on the phone with him and it's the most fun thing I've done in 7 weeks. He is desperate to dig holes :)

Jaq, Monday, 4 May 2020 14:40 (six years ago)

my partner's sister has a whole flower-breeding preserve taking up a big chunk of the island

n00b seinfeld question: what's the deal with fences? i made a nice little backyard area, only to realize that i don't have a gate or doorway. so now i have a haystack completely enclosed by a fence. everything is normal in Boneyarden.

finally got my 2-room expanded house!!

let me be your friend on the other end! (Karl Malone), Monday, 4 May 2020 15:36 (six years ago)

fences rule imo

megan thee macallan 18 year (||||||||), Monday, 4 May 2020 15:47 (six years ago)

I like the wee stone fence and the haybale fence

megan thee macallan 18 year (||||||||), Monday, 4 May 2020 15:48 (six years ago)

this is the hybrids guide I've been using

megan thee macallan 18 year (||||||||), Monday, 4 May 2020 15:48 (six years ago)

oh wait! so i should use an object as a "gate", so i can still enter and exit the fenced area by clambering over it. that'll work, thanking you!

let me be your friend on the other end! (Karl Malone), Monday, 4 May 2020 15:49 (six years ago)

Whoever wrote up how to control rock spawning used a toilet as the gate to his rock garden as a reminder to dump that fruit energy.

Jaq, Monday, 4 May 2020 17:38 (six years ago)

I enjoyed a work video chat today where people were asking what kind of game AC is

You do work and build things and swear at a raccoon for holding your mortgage, I said. Also, there are outfits
