This is what we meant when we say we miss old villager dialogue. I started playing AC with Wild World and the mean dialogue made my friendships with the animal even more valuable. I actually had a reason to dislike villagers beyond their appearance. And it was even more special when you befriended a mean villager.

[@MapleheartIguess]

Also, mean villagers trample your flowers if you weren’t buddies.

[@vixenrevitup]

About six months after New Horizons came out, I went on Ebay and bought a used copy of Population Growing, Wild World, and City Folk (the games I never played before). The files had not been played in years! The neglect was everywhere, the villagers were blubbering with happiness to see their old human friend (I don’t remember the exact amount of time since I bought these games almost a year ago, but I want to say the Population Growing villagers had not seen a human in 18 years), and the houses I seized control of were festering with cockroaches and had the tackiest furniture/flooring/wallpaper ever! As someone who started playing Animal Crossing when New Leaf came out, it was shocking to see the limitations these older games had. The players had much less to work with, but I could imagine how happy they were when they found something new. They appreciated what they were given and held on to their stuff until something better came along. They had to find creative ways to express themselves with the limitations, whereas now, expression is abundant. It was quite an experience to waddle into towns belonging to people that were children then, grew up, and sold their games either because they needed the money or the village lost its meaning to them. Each town was a time capsule for my eyes only. Because I love playing the games, I did delete the old towns and create my own, but becoming a witness to someone else’s childhood was humbling. I challenge FootofaFerret to play Population Growing! Have fun sending fossils in letters to the Faraway Museum for inspection!

[@rocy9789]

played this game alot in the past until a friend borrowed it and then borrowed it to another friend. never saw it again. if i remember correctly, the game generates the town fast foreward for the amount of time it hasnt been played. when you change your ds time in the options foreward for like 2 month, you should have weed everywhere and the animal citizens are changed. i also think in this animal crossing you were just a citizen in this town with no responsibility for others.

[@Thimes123]

You can actually still play online if you use your phone's 4g as a router. That way you can have someone shop at your store so you can unlock the final upgrade. As to what you can do, i recommend sending letters with fruits to your villagers so they can send foreign fruits which you can then plant and sell for a lot. That alongside with fishing, catching bugs, hitting money rocks and selling sea shells and fossils should give you enough money to upgrade your house, buy furniture/items (i really recommend getting a drawer or closet so you can access the storage), donate to Boondox to get the special letters/feathers and increase your Membership Points at the store to get discounts and cute models. Earning money is a real challenge in this game, but it's also incredibly balanced which makes it fun. By the way, villagers will make requests a lot more often in this game and their rewards are great, so talking to them is really benefitial even if they are rude sometimes (which can be funny). Also, planting lots of flowers in each Acre will help you get Perfect Town status. You can create your own paths by talking to Mabel but you can also get some cute ones by feeding Wendell, paths look great in this game so in my opinion it's the best way to make your town look prettier (planting and organizing some greenery also helps). There are lots of Special Visitors in this game and there is a quest in this game where you help them get their favorite items which will reward you with the Golden Axe at the end (you can check which special characters are visiting by talking to Cooper). You should also check the Recycling box everyday, sometimes there are cool items there. Blathers is hilarious in this game, he often talks about eating fish, so i really recommend donating to the museum (also you can make constellations and have a conversation while drinking coffee at the Roost).
