Is 100 bells still the "average" turnip price? Was it ever, am I just misremembering (oh god I first played this series almost 20 years ago)

I just encountered my first tarantula too. I ran up to it expecting to catch it like any other bug, whiffed, and found out what the deal is with that.

I've discovered that you can sort of expedite crafting if you mash A repeatedly while the item crafts. You do your crafting animation super fast, which looks rather hilarious.

Useful when making a million baits.

Wasps and tarantulas got nerfed pretty hard in this game. First night on the island, I saw a tarantula, walked up to it, and caught it, and that was that.

The next day, I shook a tree, wasps came out, turned to my side, and caught it with my net. I didn't act super fast or anything.

When I was playing with my husband and we shook a wasp hive, I managed to run around a tree about five times before he was able to catch it himself. I would've gotten stung within a seconds in any previous game.

I am...okay with this?


Unless you're this person.

I think y'all are just good! I am constantly stung-face. Might as well be permanent.

Yeah, I wondered when someone would mention the elephant in the room.

It looks like K.K. Slider will not appear until Resident Services moves into a building and your island becomes a 3-star Island, whatever that last part means. So..........not this week. Probably the next if you don't slack off?

It's an extremely chill game that you play in smaller parts, and rewards patience, chill, and creativity. Also tickles the part of our lizard brains that love collecting.

Not a very action or bingey game.

All that sounds good to me except the patience. Is it the type of game you just pick up and play for an hour a day? Does it discourage playing in 3-4 chunks?

It's one of those things where you can just wander around doing random junk for as long as you want. A lot of stuff's "oh, cool, this'll be ready tomorrow" and you can go back to fishing or landscaping until it's done.

Ok yea I can get down with that. I was worried you play for an hour and then there’s nothing useful you can do until the next day.
