Tom Nook, man! He said, here I got you this, and that, and this other thing...oh! And last thing before you turn in for the night...an itemized bill, have a good evening!

Oh man, Custom Design is BYKE! I used to kill so much time doing this on the original GC version!

Also, with online now being a thing, maybe I can actually do the whole visiting other players and trading goods thing...?

LOL!!

Oooh, I really like how Nook Miles gives you rewards for the different things you can do, so you get progressively better tools and even new features. Very good improvement on the original.

In the original game, you honestly plateau& #39;e rather quickly, where it just became running around for a couple hours every day, running your errands and hoping you found something new and interesting.

The game was fun but that got tiresome to me real quickly. This remedies that.

And crafting is now a thing?? Ohhhh bitch, this game finna be a blessing during this quarantine, hallelu!

Now is a great time to pause and go to bed, since a couple new developments require some time passing (for those unaware, the game is set in real-time, based off the system clock), and I& #39;m going to...

...but damn I don& #39;t wanna stop playing!

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😂" title="Face with tears of joy" aria-label="Emoji: Face with tears of joy">

OG Animal Crossing was the first game I ever encountered to utilize the system clock this way, and tbh, I think there& #39;s an argument that it really set the foundation for majority of mobile gaming. Just a thought

New day, new crib! This is the life I envisioned for myself when I moved to this island *checks clock* 12 hours ago.

When Nook first hit me with that 98,000 Bells I was ready to laugh in his damn face...but ok, little Timmy Nook will buy anything off you (even weeds!) for pretty good coin, so it balances out.

GameStop is SHAKING!

When you minding your business then you hear a faint whistle in the air...

I am irrationally excited about this!

Museum, Nook& #39;s Cranny, and my first house expansion today...mamas was BUSY yesterday, okay??

I popped the treasure balloon over the water on purpose to see what would happen, it was lost to the river goddess as expected (this is hyperbole)...but then my Nookphone went off. Losing your first treasure is rewarded with Nook Miles.

Shout out to Orville of Dodo Airlines. No reason in particular, I just love the little fella.

And a shout out to Blathers, I love this chatty little nerd so much.

Me, yesterday: Man, some of this DIY furniture is really nice but I wish you could, like...paint it other colors or something.

Tom Nook, today: So I& #39;m hosting customization workshops today for DIY furniture!

Whew I know it& #39;s just pent-up emotion but the "With hope for our continued growth..." part of each dedication ceremony gets me every time. Got a bitch feeling like he& #39;s a part of something grand...

Her style is evolving.

30,000 Bells just literally dropped out of the sky.

In case anyone was wondering why we love this game so much. Imagine...??

When you visit each other& #39;s islands, do y& #39;all...do anything special? Or just let the visitor run around and explore? I& #39;m always so awkward lol

Money falls outta the sky here and even grows on trees!

The legend herself has finally arrived!

(Idk why or how she became a legendary meme but the Doom crossover fanart has been glorious so I& #39;m here for it.)

Nah, but this Resident Services upgrade just took island customization to the next level. Everything so damn expensive too, which means more value in all the little activities you can do to earn Bells.

Excellent damn pacing

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👌🏽" title="Ok hand (medium skin tone)" aria-label="Emoji: Ok hand (medium skin tone)">

And they pick a great spot, imo, to introduce all the expensive shit, which essentially slows down the game and instant gratification aspect.

It drives the first week of play, gave you sense of accomplishment needed to keep playing, and now you& #39;re hooked and willing to commit.

(If this does not apply to you, and you somehow hate the game and hate the FOMO that made you buy the game in the first place and hate everyone playing the game then, uhhhh....ignore that last tweet, you are obviously not the "you" I was talking about

So, I thought you paid upfront for infrastructure like bridges, but you pick the style you want, choose the spot, then make payments like with your house loan and the bridge is built when the cost is met.

LOL when I plotted out my initial neighbors& #39; tents, I did it from the perspective of the original game where you have like maybe 4 villagers max...?

I put the houses so damn far away, and now I& #39;m channeling all the zoning lessons I learned from SimCity as I re-envision my island LOL this is my happy place.

I& #39;m so proud of the ways Zelda and Animal Crossing (and I& #39;m gonna say Mario too, though I& #39;ve only seen screenshots from Odyssey yet) have evolved in the Switch era. They really bounced tf back after the WiiU.

One of my favorite neighbors is singing in the plaze and my other favorite neighbor sat down to enjoy the show. Too cute!!

I just spent several hours running around planning a layout for my island. And yes, that SimCity training came in clutch, I definitely separated it into zones

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😂" title="Face with tears of joy" aria-label="Emoji: Face with tears of joy">

One part of me is like: wow these houses are cramped together, so much for yard space

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😕" title="Confused face" aria-label="Emoji: Confused face">

But the other part is like: the entire island is yard space, this is all just for aesthetic appeal

The game calls this a Tulip Hat, but all I can see is LL Cool J. So, yes, I& #39;m buying the hat.

It always begins with a lighthouse...

And Walt, the kangaroo dad with a zen-themed home that I was thinking of as I built it, happened to be the first villager I see there this morning. How serendipitous!

One of my favorite things about this game is how many of the objects are somewhat functional and villagers will use them of their own accord.

So like, no, no one& #39;s gonna ride the teacup ride, but you will find neighbors hanging out in plazas you design, for example.

Contrast that to, say, Minecraft which is basically 95% aesthetic past the few tools and objects you use for survival mode.

It& #39;s just enough, here, to ensure your island actually feels vibrant and not just aesthetic but alive. Love it so much.

Happy 1-Month Anniversary to all my lovely Animal Crossing fam. What a fun little escape this has been!

I guess Nook& #39;s Cranny upgrades after you spend enough Bells there or something? They& #39;re closing tomorrow for renovations, and here I thought all that was done. Cool!

According to this, three requirements have to be met to get the upgrade:

• Play for 30 days
• Buy/Sell at least 200,000 bells worth of goods
• Have Mabel visit your island https://animalcrossingworld.com/guides/new-horizons/how-to-upgrade-expand-nooks-cranny/">https://animalcrossingworld.com/guides/ne...

I wrote about Animal Crossing and its potential for helping us imagine a world beyond capitalism.

Maybe he’s not such a bad guy after all.

This is literally on the opposite corner of the island from her house, AND she laughed at the end, y& #39;all saw that?? She knew what she doing. Ain& #39;t you ready for a new island, Charlise? Lemme call Isabelle...

I hope a future update gives us the option to decorate the surface of ponds and lakes. Like lily pads and moss and shit like that. These bodies of water just be looking bland!

Isabelle was watering the flowers at her desk and the good sis is GONE off that good good!

Happy May Day from Rover and Tom Nook!

It& #39;s not all fun and games tho, so remember to support workers IRL, too.

That was a fun little maze tho. I& #39;m not very fond of puzzles, but that one was easy enough to not frustrate me, but challenging enough to not bore me either.

And a cute little reward of bells too. Not sure what to do with this briefcase yet so I& #39;ll just hold onto it.

This is a great thread from someone involved in the making of the game!! https://twitter.com/Rheiret/status/1259523659846135808?s=19">https://twitter.com/Rheiret/s...
