Haha, did this picture come from the retailer? White backgrounds still included for a bunch of animals while poor KK Slider/Julian lost part of their faces due to transparent selection.
Furuta will launch a new set of AC figure in February (in Japan) but is based (again) on New Leaf. I find it so weird that all merchandise so far (except some preorder bonuses) is using New Leaf instead of the new game.
Yes, I'm more in the camp of back to basics in terms of theming, but want them to blow out interactions with animals. Several entries chased the multiplayer ghost and now when I return to new leaf it feels hollow because I just want to have better interactions with the animals, but its all about making a facade to show off to MP visitors or dream guests.
Yes! I made a detailed post in this thread or another about this very thing - how the Animal interactions are #1 on my list of "things I want this game to do right". They've been going downhill since Wild World (and even that I would say was a big step down from the Gamecube version, but it was on DS, less memory etc.), and they've become wallpaper. They need to become a focus of the game again - not everyone plays Animal Crossing to micromanage a town through customization and all that - a lot of us just like to go hang out in our towns, and having the Animals become less and less interesting and engaging has had a big effect on this franchise for me. IT'S STILL CALLED ANIMAL CROSSING AFTER ALL!
Haha, damn - I can't argue, but I hate to hear it.

lol yeah, it is dirty. Here is a better pic.
YES. It's still my favourite version - it captured a vibe and atmosphere that hasn't been recaptured since.
GC Animal Crossing definitely had a... je ne sais quoi that the series, whilst still being amazing, hasn't really recaptured.
I've read once that it's actually the localisation team that makes the villagers in the new ones less harsh. Apparently they're still kinda the same in the original versions.
They Pokemon Rival'd us. Certain animals used to be grumpy assholes, and I really vibed with that.
Create a design, make it a hat, and there you go, viking hat if you play a boy :p
What?! I played 250+ hours of New Leaf, how have I forgottten this? Thought they took it out!
No. You live in a little forest with a beach, a bunch of stores and a few animal villagers. (The forest is randomly created, and the game randomly select the animals that will live in the village)
It seems more of the same we already saw on New Leaf... which is not a bad thing I guess.
Yeah, I get you. I think it's a bit of both. The OG feels cozier, because you're not seeing the actual sky and horizon, but the perspective also makes it feel like you're surrounded by the world, so it also feels more dense and "bigger" in that regard. The portable games basically going 50-50 on ground vs sky with the dual screens probably contributes to that feeling.
didn't New Leaf just have the map and inventory on the bottom screen and reserve the top screen for all the actual gameplay
It did and I think it shifted with a button. It still had a ton of sky though. It's also been forever since I played.
To me it seems like the biggest departure yet.
Last I checked Pocket Camp took quite a few ideas from Stardew! I hope they take inspiration for NH
It seems Harvey has his own mini island at least based on this image :
They're gonna zoom out this image during the AC direct to reveal there's tons of islands all around you.It seems Harvey has his own mini island at least based on this image :
I don't think so that they have been shown yet, but in the september direct they did talk about "brand new animals" when asking us to stay tuned for more infos in the future.
