How soon can you cross rivers? I picked an island with a smaller island in the middle and right now I can only access about 40% of the island at large :nyoron:

e: lol same

What I'm reading is you need to unlock the net/fishing rod recipes and catch 5 fish/bugs. Then you pick a spot for the museum, and on the next day Blathers appears. He will give you the recipe for the vaulting pole. It costs another 30,000 bells to move your tent.

I've never time traveled before but I really want to get the setup done...

So can you get the recipes from someone else's Blathers or do you need to wait for him to move in? I feel dumb for not just slapping his tent down somewhere last night now. :(

I scanned it with the app. You need the Nintendo Switch Online app and not some kind of separate Animal Crossing app.

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 very curious about this. My wife saw me playing and wants to give it a try, so I stopped playing for now because I don’t want to do all the fun starting stuff and leave her with nothing.

Anyone have anything to say about the experience of sharing Animal Crossing? I’ve only ever played solo.

Pretty sure you can shake trees as much as you want and sticks will keep falling unlike the previous games since you need stuff to craft in this one.

I am not at all a morning person. After staying up past midnight last night playing I just woke up at 6:30am and wanted nothing more than to grab my switch and start my day on my island.

I haven't felt this way about a game in a long, long time. Thankfully I'm working from home and can check in on my island life throughout the day today.

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?

Or...perhaps I am just not chill enough for this game

There’s actually way less unavoidable repeat dialogue in this game compared to the previous ones, and they’ve added so many time savers. Like I‘m thrilled with how quickly I can enter and exit buildings. Before, every time you entered or exited a building there was unavoidable talking from the person inside.

Also only fruit and bells stacked in the last game and you had to manually stack the fruit and manually move bells from your inventory to your bell bag.

Pretty much back in my day we had to walk up a hill both ways to get to school etc etc

Never played AC before. Didn't know there were different villagers, islands, fruit, etc. so I have a zebra and an anteater with pears. Played some so far but I can't tell if there's anything for me to do beyond wait right now.

- Waiting for my house to be built
- Waiting for museum guy to arrive
- I couldn't get the balloon present
- There's shiny stuff in the ground I don't have a shovel for
- I have tons of wood but nothing new to make

Am I just supposed to run around in circles doing the same stuff I've been doing for no real reason?

They seemingly refresh or something? I'm not sure on the time or things you have to do to make it refresh, but I shook a tree four times in a row and a stick fell out the first two times and then the last.

I don't know specifics for this game but a new character is going to have their own house, it's an integral part of the game. I'm guessing recipes aren't shared, though you can buy or find recipes and give them to someone else rather than read them yourself. (Helpful since you may have already read them)

I get the impression that, much like only the first player character in New Leaf is declared Mayor for no adequately explained reason, only the first character on the island in New Horizons is made the Island Rep, though we don't know if they're the only one who can do things like pick out locations for new buildings and such.
