Did you have to remake the pattern or is the companion app for uploading codes available yet?

I decided I was gonna keep whatever the RNG gods gave me so that was green airport and cherries, and I've already planted apples, peaches and coconuts.

I also have my house and I just turned in all the wood and nuggets for the shop to open tomorrow, as well as handing in enough things for Blathers to start building the proper museum!


I was gonna work from home but I am ill as gently caress, so now my whole day is gonna be miles farming, fishing, bug catching and island expeditions in between coughing my lungs out and wishing for death. I've already used my freebie and got to invite Bianca to my island :dance:

There's a maximum amount you can hold on your person.

Got some bad news for any other nocturnal players out there. I just got the store built. Unlike the vendor in Resident Services the standalone shop is NOT 24 hours. It's open from 8AM - 10PM. However, there IS a drop box outside that will still let you sell stuff.

Hey--So, I'm going to start playing with my wife today on the same console, but I have a couple of questions that I've been a bit confused by.

1) Can we share a house or do we each automatically get set up with our own tent? Can we upgrade one tent as a house to share and also maintain a tent?

2) When we play together, can we label the other as a bestfriend?

Also like 3 other gay friends of mine all have peaches in their towns. Maybe there’s like a gay bias towards the rear end fruit? Not that I’m complaining.

Shaped like a friend

Hey I couldn't sleep so spent this morning just mindlessly fishing and whatever

Day 2:
*Gulliver showed up and did his quest thing
*Blathers Museum is going to open on Day 3, he stopped taking the stuff I was hoarding from him so everything is just in weird hammerspace in my house
*Cleaned the entire lower level of the island
*Used my travel ticket and met Boomer, yet another Penguin for my ranks. Dude is a stoner and said he just wanted to lay on his face and stare at grass while thinking about spaghetti
*Paid off the 98k house debt for another upgrade
*Nooklings store is going to go up Day 3 too
*Expanded my inventory, got the item ring and the upgraded tools

Upgraded tools take much longer to break and the Iron Axe can cut down trees instead of just bunting them. They still break though and that's really annoying.

Important?
I decided to print off a handful of those coupons to go to deserted islands so I could get stuff for the store's fetch quest. You're always guaranteed a villager and they all seem to be okay with joining you if you ask them to no hassle required.
The important thing though on these islands is there's a low chance of finding fruit not native to your island. I have oranges normally but the last ticket I spent I wound up at a island full of Peaches and Apple the hamster. Selling those got me like 25k and I planted a few around my island so go on those tours! They're good!!

It also sounds like you'll be upgrading your villagers houses too. When the store quest starts you walk in on Nook and the kids talking about how they'll need to fund their upgrades and get materials and told me not to worry about it just yet, so stockpiling as much wood as possible in advance.

I pulled this cute little number out of a balloon present. I think I've seen three in just one hour, so the frequency has increased it seems (didn't they only fly by once per hour in New Leaf?)

The island in the US Virgin Islands that has the main airport is called BEEF so I guess you know where you're located, now.

There's so many unskippable dialogue prompts it's crazy, like each time I want to show Tom nook something or use his bench I have to press extra buttons and wait for no reason. Maybe I shouldn't expect time-saving convenience in a time-sink genre?

I tend to hold B down during those, pressing it to jump to the next one, being careful not to mindlessly press it so that I lose a choice on accident by denying whatever option it just gave me. But yeah, that's kind of a staple of AC games as well.

It's so fundamentally different than almost any other game and it basically forces you to just calm the gently caress down and be patient without really any good way around it (outside of arguably time travel). It's refreshing if you can actually wrap your head around it and stop trying to constantly make significant progress.

Ugh, I hated that in New Leaf. It actually counteracts the chill when I get annoyed at mashing through identical dialogue anytime I want to check the price on something

How do I cut down trees? I saw someone said something about eating fruit but my fruit meter is at 10/10 and I want to cut some unsightly not-fruit not-cedar trees.

e: oh, you need the Iron Axe? I can't spare any cause I'm short iron for the Nooklings! Should I grind miles for another island or?

Didn't stay up last night b/c I was getting too anxious, but I'm up bright and early today. Got this sweet layout with my own private island:



My villagers are Mac and Plucky, but my fruit is apples... really don't want to reset, I love the layout and I'm not creative enough with terraforming to make my own island.

Edit: ohh shoot, I can't get the pole until tomorrow? Hmm. Well, I guess I'll just roll with it for now.
