ANIMAL CROSSING: NEW HORIZONS - Thread of Gaming Zen

[Dickie Dee]

TASTY PROTIP: Plant flowers, build fences or pave roads anywhere that would be inconvenient to check every day for fossils. You can narrow the scope of where they appear to make it easier on your daily loop.

You can do same thing to control where your rocks spawn after you destroy them. You can make a little rock garden if you want to put in the effort

[Purple Filth]

[Tasty]

Nintendo having the literal balls to keep works of art uncensored while """""mature"""" publishers like Ubisoft snif their own farts on AssCrud historical accuracy (as one example) is really something else

[Tasty]

AC Odyssey: literally takes place in Greece, rated M, only gamers 17+ allowed sry -- no dongs

AC New Horizons: rated E for everyone -- dongs-a-plenty

[Yeti]

I got a big old Olmec head from Redd assuming I guessed right. Well, I will when it is delivered tomorrow.

[Tasty]

Finally convinced Hopper to move in via Amiibo card, and the upgraded Museum will open tomorrow too. Pretty much the last things on my to-do list for Ohana. After this I should just be doing daily loop stuff.

What's everyone been up to on their islands? I'm also curious if anyone's been using the top-down camera option at all -- I still default to it most of the time and reflexively hit the right analog stick every time I exit a building. (Wish this was a setting that would stick.)

[Tasty]

Oh! My house is a fucking mess and I've been meaning to re-do most of the rooms. Maybe I'll do that this week.

[CatsCatsCats]

I still use the gcn view, it’s the only way to go as far as I’m concerned. I’m just doing my lil daily stuff mostly, now including a trip to Redd. Buying more furniture from nooks, thinking about how to display my wand collection lol

[Dickie Dee]

Speaking of,  best your house Feng Schwinnged for tomorrow:

God I love 5pm! First song to stop me in my tracks so I could listen after getting hourly music.

2am was that song for me



So smooth and relaxing   

[Tasty]

Lots of NL in 2 AM, I'm a big fan of anything primarily piano-based too. One of my faves.

Any reason to keep cedar trees around?

I have too many fucking fruit trees on ground level and I want to have more open spaces for roads/furniture/etc without sacrificing them.

[Tasty]

Any reason to keep cedar trees around?

Not at the moment, but in the fall cedar trees will start producing a seasonal crafting material -- pinecones. (Hardwood trees will produce acorns.)

In addition, in December cedar trees get dressed to the nines.

I have too many fucking fruit trees on ground level and I want to have more open spaces for roads/furniture/etc without sacrificing them.

I've done this and it worked out really well, I think Cats did too. Basically segmenting the trees based on level. For me ground level is all fruit trees, level two is cedar and bamboo, and the third level is just cedar trees. Running around is a lot of fun.

[Tasty]

If you cut too many trees down, Isabelle will tell you. The game will actually let you remove quite a few trees before taking a hit on your island rating.

Bought two inventories (at 109 ) and then went on a mystery tour and got a dope new villager, Alli

[BIONIC]

Thanks, Tasty.

Might keep a few.

[Beezy]

3 of 4 art pieces that Redd showed me were fake. Get this man off my damn island.

I got Alli's twin sister, Alli, on my island too 

[Tasty]

107 here

Could only buy 1300 but not in a huge rush to replace my depleted fortunes.

[Purple Filth]

At least it wasn't all 4

[Tasty]

Just wait until you get enough art that the 1 genuine piece out of 4  from Redd is something you already have. :/

Tfw a day after the museum was closed you go 0/9 for new fossils with Blathers 

[Pissy F Benny]

whats the target price to sell your turnips, i bought 200 racks worth

[Tasty]

If you don't feel like travelling, 150-200+ is good. If you're serious about selling and coordinating with others, 500+.

[Dickie Dee]

r/acturnips banned turnip exchange, which kind of sucks

Not sure what the latest turnip hotness is

[Tasty]

(thread)

Seems like a legit reason to ban.

[CatsCatsCats]

Naw, they just mad they aren’t the best place to go now 👀

[Purple Filth]

Seems that will take a while though.

But when it happens i'll buy it all the same for my personal collection (along with the fakes  )

[BIONIC]

Does it matter what gifts you give your villagers?

I keep gifting them tree branches like an asshole but they seem happy about it

[pilonv1]

I give them the flowers I accidentally pick.

That asshole Julian wouldn't even accept my fake painting

[HardcoreRetro]

I give them stuff based on their personality. Gave one of the jock characters a pull-up bar stand and a speedbag. Cranston who's into bugs I gave a tarantula.

[Tasty]

I think you only need to be careful about clothing.

There is a friendship meter and gifts will make it increase based on what you give them.

So if its something they are into supposedly the meter fills faster. (apparently wrapping them as gifts also helps)

My understanding is that this friendship meter can give you a framed picture plus also the remaining reactions at different levels.

Also the reactions are based on the personality types so its best to have all 8 types so you can get all of them

[Beezy]

What the hell, The Ables are selling a Royal Crown for 1.2mil.

Wait they'll seriously lock you out of reactions if you don't have a basically-perfect balance of villager types? WTF.

[CatsCatsCats]

This is why minmaxing and being a completionist is a very dangerous in this game

[CatsCatsCats]

Yes that’s right it is a very dangerous.

What's everyone's PM pricing today? I made the biggest turnip purchase to date yesterday. If I don't profit and I'm going to BBQ those fuckers.

My Monday PM: 90 bells. I missed the AM window.

[Tasty]

Bought @ 107 bells

Monday AM: 93 bells
Monday PM: 89 bells

55.9% chance large spike, 38.9% chance decreasing, 5.12% chance small spike

Best sell time looks to be between Wednesday and Friday. Tomorrow will hopefully provide enough data to make a more precise prediction.

[Tasty]

Oh thank god, I have all eight types.

I have three cranky villagers and one each of the other types. The cranky club includes Rocco (who reads a lot and he's a giant hippo but he wears these tiny reading glasses and omg my heart), Camofrog (skeet skeet my weed dealer, he literally gave me a "pot" DIY recipe LMAO), and my newly moved-in GameCube BFF Hopper.

I've let the game fill the island out on its own, so it probably (hopefully?) is just balanced that way, and you only can really get yourself in trouble if you do a lot of manual move-ins (via Amiibo cards or other methods.)

Anyways, this just cements my desire to completely lock my current villager roster in place forever. I really love all 10 of my animal neighbors.

Apparently yes according to the official companion guide.

Also if you have a tv it will show a weather forecast so you can know when a meteor shower is approaching or rain the day before

Man, I hope it gets better.  I bought like 100,000 bells worth of turnips yesterday and they only want to give me 84 bells today.

From day one:



To day forty:

57% large spike
40% decreasing
3% small spike

Coin flip, basically

Oh dope, I just bought a tv

[CatsCatsCats]

Lol my tv is just showing a talk show

Kind of want to get enough Tuna, Marlin, and Tarantulas to save for art before they leave after April.

OTOH, I can't really be bothered to

I knew that would get you 

Maybe? but  if not Nintendo fans will make it so 

[Shaka Khan]

So I'm realizing my layout is pretty fucked up and I need to move buildings. Do I have to do it one building at a time? And if so, does the building move the next day or does it need another full day in construction?

$50k per building move. I'm going to have to sell myself on street corners to cover this.

Same. Those figurines are probably gonna destroy me worse than trying for all reactions.

I haven't tried moving more than one at a time but from being all up in that menu all the time, they don't prevent you from trying to move another one IIRC... but dunno for certain.

When you pay to move one, you'll get a kit similar to ones for bridges/ramps. Wherever you put it will immediately be under "construction," so the building will reopen the next day. The building itself won't "close" as it's in the process of "moving."

73k for an imperial dining table. Nook has lost it

I want to move a building a little to the left, to where the building would overlap the old spot a little. Am I going to have to move it twice for 100,000 bells? 

[Purple Filth]

Right?

People think its all the twins but Nook is still behind that shit, how would that thing get to the island without his consent?
