Imagine Animal Crossing with the quality-of-life features we actually want |

Imagine an Animal Crossing: New Horizons Direct, except they announce the kinds of Quality of Life changes that players have been begging for since the game's release. #ImagineAnimalCrossing
THIS IS NOT AN OFFICIAL NINTENDO DIRECT. The goal of this video is not to mislead, but to demonstrate that these changes can realistically be implemented such that it improves the player experience while maintaining the spirit and atmosphere of Animal Crossing: New Horizons.

Also you can’t assign the diving suit to a wand. The Wands are the most pointless thing ever, and then when the diving suit came i thought “ oh perfect since I have to change so often with the diving suit I’ll finally have the perfect use for the wand” yet no.... for some stupid reason you can’t put the diving suit on a wand and you have to select each item to put it on or take it off individually. Why? Because Nintendo thought it wasn’t frustrating enough. There is no way these choices aren’t purposely done to frustrate players and drag out play time on shallow gameplay. I wouldn’t mind the gameplay being shallow if it wasn’t meticulously designed to frustrate players and have them run back and forth across their Island constantly because of some dumb pointless limitation that Nintendo added.

The Nov 2021 feature expansion for AC is great and all, but I feel like the quality of life improvements that fans have been screaming for (see above video) went right over their heads.

As someone with a game design degree, I can absolutely assure you that these features are absolutely standard.

The problem is, even when you don't have the terraforming available, you can place custom patterns on the ground (same was true in every other AC game) so how would a new player erase their pathways if they can't put the terraforming mode on?

[@princesssunset8362]

All these updates would be amazing but what I want most is the ability to type whatever the fridge you want to say to a villager when talking to them and for the villager to respond based on what you said.

[@LunatheMoonDragon]

But you guys forgot Nintendo's motto: "If you release a QOL update, that means you have to admit something was wrong with your perfect game in the first place!"

[@pmatcha]

They want us to suffer.

[@Meowy_Mix]

I kind of hate when people defend some of the design choices in the game saying, "It's AC it's meant to be slow pace". Waiting for plants to grow, moving houses, and bridges taking days makes sense. Going in and out of Abel's fitting room for different clothes, only being able to craft one at a time, and navigating through terrible menus is artificial padding and frustrating tedium. Fixing these mechanics won't ruin the core gameplay at all since everything else still takes time, so it only feels right that Nintendo implement some QoL changes, even though they most likely won't...

[@ahhhrealmonsters]

exactly, thank you! you framed it perfectly. i seriously can't understand the arguments against any of these changes. plus, if you like navigating menus and reading the same dialogue for the 1000th time, you would be free to do so.

[@iainashe8325]

Well said 🙏🏻

[@ganknshank]

I don't think it's fair to assume that people that prefer the slower pace of AC think the game is perfect and doesn't need QoL changes. I for one like slower place that is why I don't time travel. It makes sense that plants and trees takes a few days to grow at least we can replant trees now. Bridges/inclines only take one day to build assuming you have the money. That being said of course I find the crafting one thing at a time needlessly tedious, and I would kill for that item placement box. I would also like to commission multiple bridges or move multiple things if I am able to pay things off first. it would still take a day to complete though. Overall I agree with 100% of the changes in the video I desperately hope this would be added in a update.

[@turkiedurkie4895]

Meow Mix there is a recent glitch that shows they might BE adding these quality of life updates. Let’s not be so negative !

[@Negus222]

Yes, some tedium in the game is only due to unoptimal gameplay, some is by design. There's no reason why better use can't be made with the available controller buttons like ZR and ZL for example without violating the spirit of the game.

[@beepisbean6130]

Anyone else here a few days before E3 2021 hoping the Nintendo team have watched this video and are gonna incorporate everything🥺

[@mxstyxskiies886]

I can't believe they didn't add ANY of these updates in the huge update from november, I would love to have all of these in the game, it'll make it so much easier and better! I really hate that you can't mute certain sounds, that music is just so loud sometimes. Don't get me wrong, I love the new update, it added so much cool stuff and definitely makes some things better like being able to walk through small spaces and being able to hang stuff from the ceiling. It's too bad they said they wouldn't add any more huge updates. I apoligize about this long text haha, I just wanted to tell my opinion ☺

I'm actually angry that this is not implemented in the game, collectively it could save hours of wasted time for each player. I hope Nintendo sees this. Thank you so much for spending the time to make this.

[@FaithOriginalisme]

I actually think that's the point. I think Nintendo wants the game to take time, so instead of building a game that takes time, they built in a bunch o f inefficient stuff
