Another critique is that turnips are the only real, reliable money maker.

Was it super awesome? Not rly. But I did like that the fishing tournament was finally an activity to do with and enriched by island visitors

I was super confused and bummed that bags and backpacks don’t provide storage space lol

You have to be holding it while accessing a wardrobe. Then the "Edit wand outfits" option will be available.

Confused the fuck outta me too.

Turnips sold and made 170k bells. Should be enough for tomorrow

Going to start running the island like a utilitarian.

Anything I don't need or going to use I'm selling. I just bought a bunch of stuff from nooks and immediately sold it because while I like I don't need it now. Better to sell than clog storage.

Tomorrow I'm going to clear out storage and sell everything I don't immediately need.

Now i can have fun again. This entry ain't for hoarders like me.

Remember when New Leaf had love and attention put into the fishing tournament?

(Image removed from quote.)

Remember when there was a dedicated scripted event with a podium and fanfare for who actually won?

Remember when it felt like fucking Animal Crossing? Fishing at your leisure throughout the day is 1000% more AC than some three minute bullshit.

Remember when if you missed it, it basically happened every winter month anyways? Not once a quarter so fuck you if you miss it?

Remember when the fishing tournament was fun?

Catch these fucking eggs, bitch.

What do the wands do?

I came back to the fishing comp after 6pm and the cooler was there but no CJ and no results. Even Pocket Camp had a better fishing competiton. At least it showed what I'd caught and how big they were

stalks were 90 bells to buy today thankfully

stores outfits for you. Literally takes the clothes out of your inventory and saves the outfit. Completely saving you space. It's a life saver. I counted like 8 or 9 outfit slots. It's a game changer.

Desperately need hardwood (:teehee), as much as I can get. Buying bundles of 30 for 50k? I should be able to receive them in the mail (unlike eggs) and will reply with bells as promptly as I can. :)

I don't know what a fair price is on this stuff either, pretty flexible...

Removed a bunch of trees, including about 20 fruit ones to make it easier to run around. (Still have about 16 trees per type.)

Combined with a couple ramps and holy crap it's actually as fun as it was in New Leaf to run around my island.

Really good game design giving players polevault/ladder and then making them choose how to make their island easier to get around.

I had to do that too, Isabelle told me residents were too stupid to find their houses because I had so many trees. I actually wanted to live on an island that was like a town in a forrest but fuck these villagers for complaining.

Ended up turfing a dozen peach (native) trees but kept all my cherries and oranges and pears (about 20 of each). Someone pls send me some apples.

BTW ran into some annoying infrastructure things just now.

- You can only have up to 8 ramps (I assume bridges have the same arbitrary limit)
- It takes a full day to destroy a ramp or bridge, and you can't start a new project during this time >:(
- It costs 10k bells to destroy a ramp or bridge (the 180k to build it wasn't enough?)
