Discussion What are some new features/ideas you'd like to see in the next Animal Crossing?

What if the next animal crossing was in space?

1. Add a TOTK ultra-hand-like system for furniture or house building. Craft sticks, boards, hardware, etc and glue them together to make stuff, then attach upholsteries, veneers, and paint.

2. Gardening mechanics. Base plants you can cross pollination to make new plants like that streetpass game "Flower Town". Custom topiaries, grow a veggie garden, sell flowers, etc.

So we can make unholy monstrosities with the ultra hand (I‘ll just call it animal hand) thing? I would love to stick a villager I hate onto the tower of 600 piggy banks

an oft repeated but imo irredeemably terrible idea

if they do this I'll try not to be annoying about it but I will 100% not buy it

To me, sharing a town with one or more of my sisters was the core experience of Animal Crossing. Sharing a town became less necessary as new games were made for handheld devices, which were more often used by a single person.

Same! This is also why I haven't played New Leaf nearly as much as many people. And because of the Switch's awkward place in this I was being weirdly tyrannical as the main owner of the town in New Horizons.

Having said that I think your concept is fantastically interesting. Not sure I have fully grasped the Townies, but the concept at large seems like a logical, modern, and creative way to not make people lose the control they loved in New Horizons while also staying true to the idea of merely being an inhabitant of a living Animal Crossing town/world.

More vk and goth styled characters honestly.
