I feel you guys and I've only had the game for a month. Don't get my wrong, it's still fun but.... I think the worst thing for me is how expensive everything is. I constantly see everyone on twitter be like "haha, money grinding so easy!!" but like no????? It's extremely hard. Never seen any tarantula or scorpion in my game. Oh wait I did, on the homescreen.. and after that they are always gone :) Thanks game. Meteor shower? Don't know her. And up until yesterday I haven't had any rare/special island when I went on mystery tours. And then suddenly I just got bamboo island and money island 5 times in a row???? So weird. I got my house up to 3 extra rooms, mainly just so I have more storage. Now I want to save all my money to move all the buildings...which is so taunting to me because it's so damn expensive. Also, Nooks Store? I was so hyped for the upgrade and now that I have it... I haven't gained anything, because the one new furniture every day is hella expensive and I won't buy any of those until my island is ready, which can take... another month, or longer. So thanks for nothing game.
I had quite a lot of fetch quests so far, but only because I actually keep talking to all my villagers multiple times, often until they don't want to talk anymore. I just... try to skip through everything I heard already as fast as I can. I never felt so annoyed by my villagers in New Leaf because they actually kept saying new stuff and maybe repeated themselves once a week.. not multiple times a day. Also I HATE that they changed how Gulliver worked. They went from a cute little quiz in New Leaf that had you guess where he wanted to go to a damn annoying fetch quest. Why. Why. Give me the quiz back, make it longer I don't care. But I'm tired of fetch quests. I'm so tired. And they can't tell me that a quiz would be too hard because of the children, everyone could just google the answer if they weren't sure and really little kids could ask their parents.
I also read that Nintendo made the spawn rates for rare and expensive bug and fish even lower, so thanks Nintendo. With my luck, which is no luck, it will take me years to get any of that :))) I hate it here. The only thing that keeps me kinda excited are rumors for farming and crops that some people allegedly found in the code sooo... that would make me very happy. But right now I'm just running around, trying my best to get money and hope that my boyfriend and I will have an idea for our layout. We know that we don't want to change too much, just a few things here and there to give us more space because our layout makes our island tiny. Oh, also, I hate how the campsite works, it amkes no sense and Nook should stop selling open plots by himself. Make it an option but not necessary. I WANT TO USE THE CAMPSITE, pls let me Nintendo.
