Yeah I just saw people complaining about Bunny Day on Twitter, what's with the hate? Are you guys really still doing so much fishing that getting an egg instead of a fish is hugely upsetting? You can sell them either way! And the cherry blossoms are so pretty!

Yeah, I don't mind it. The inventory limits are somewhat cumbersome but whatever, 'tis the season. And yeah, I like the Cherry Blossom series.

I like the Bunny Day, I'm not sure I see the problem. It's fun having events like this, makes these time periods feel more special and gives something more unique to do throughout the year. I don't think I'll actually display the Bunny Day items, but it's an enjoyable goal to achieve with friends and help each other out by trading the types of eggs for which we find extras. It's only until the 12th, plenty of time to catch fish after that.

If you're trying to get materials for crafting then, yeah, it kinda gets in the way of that. I need a lot of stones for stuff I'm building, and half of what a rock is producing are eggs. Factoring in iron and clay and maybe I'll get one stone (if I'm lucky).

I get digging for them, or shaking trees, or shooting them out of the sky. But it feels like overkill and not balanced with things like fishing and cutting down trees and whatnot. I should feel like, "Oh neat, I found an egg when hitting this rock!" Instead the game is drowning in them and I'm having the exact opposite reaction.

Don't forget if you're interested in trying out some Animal Crossing Multiplayer Games I've been playing around with conceptually you should join my ACMM (Animal Crossing Multiplayer Mayhem) Discord!

It's going to be fun!

Totes. Fishing is the primary activity when all of the chores of the day are accomplished. Big money. Bunny Day has delayed the great Hinphaii Bridge and Incline Project now that I can't make big money. These other selfish ass villagers aren't going to contribute.

I like that everybody is complaining. Maybe Nintendo will make future events less awful... or maybe even enjoyable?

Man, my son has been killing it in this game so far. He’s got a new addition on his huge house, he’s got a new version of Timmy and Tommy’s shop coming tomorrow, nearly all the fruit, and he’s got so many Bells it’s ridiculous. Didn’t realize how much time he’s put into it already!

....then he confessed he is time traveling.

IMMEDIATELY SNAPPED HIS SWITCH IN HALF AND GROUNDED HIM FOR LIFE.

@GameDadGrant

The joycons snap back on once you feel he has learned his lesson!

Oh my.

I won't say anything but I just got spoiled on something BIG in this game that is a total game changer. HOW IS THIS GAME REAL.

@Zero

Like, something never revealed in Directs or anything? Hmmmmmm.
04/04/20, 12:38   
@Zero

Without getting specific, is it something that the game introduces to you eventually down the road, or is it something you'd discover on your own? Very intriguing!
04/04/20, 14:29   
Yeah now I'm picturing, like, some MGSV nuclear deterrence stuff...
04/04/20, 17:10   
It's all just a dream, and when you wake up, you stumble over to a mirror to discover the awful truth: YOU are Tom Nook!

@Hinph No clue, I didn't pay attention to them! I feel like it has to be something they talked about because it is a pretty big feature, but I sure didn't know it existed.

I skipped City Folk and didn't play a ton of New Leaf so this might not even be new to the series, but I feel like it is?!

@TheBigG753 I haven't gotten there yet but from what I read it is something that you would eventually run into if you follow the main thread of the game progress.

If anyone wants things spoiled, it is terraforming! Which I found out because I joined a few AC FB groups to try to push my multiplayer ideas and kept seeing posts of some crazy ass complex multi-level area designs and was like... how is this even possible? But now you can change the very depth of the land itself! (Is this new?!)

@Zero

Oh yes, that was in the Directs. It's rad, but the only problem is that I've already designed my town around the layout I was given in the beginning, and benevolent capitalist Nook charges an awful lot to move buildings around. Wish it was a feature that unlocked early game instead.
04/04/20, 23:08   
Yeah I feel like it will be expensiveeeee. A lot of the people in these AC groups use all of these complex money hacks and such but I like to play it normally so I won't have tons of cash to throw around.

But it still looks fun!
04/04/20, 23:16   
Yeah, I'm thinking that will be something to mess around with late game, once I have all my upgrades, a ton of items, and a lot of spare bells lying around.
04/04/20, 23:45   
@Zero

Ah, that's what I figured you were referring to! Yeah, that does seem like the crazy endgame logical conclusion of everything they're doing.
04/05/20, 02:25   
@Zero

Oh that, yeah. One of my co-workers talked about it being a big deal, I guess it was shown in the last Direct.
