What do you want to see in the next Animal Crossing?
Here are a few of mine...
Imagine when the game starts, you have 5 different starting locations to choose from with each having different perks to them.
-
Tropical Rainforest - This starting location could have exotic bugs and a surplus of wood.
-
Beach - This starting location could have an entire area dedicated to exotic fishing and collecting shells. Swimming?
-
Desert - This starting location could have an abundance of fossils to collect and rare earth minerals.
-
City - This starting location would be for people who like shopping and want quick and better access to stores and clothing.
-
Farm - This starting location would be for those who want to plant, water, harvest, and cook. This place could have special soil that would make plants grow significantly faster.
This initial decision could drastically change the way multiplayer feels, especially if each area has its own exclusive items. Friends could strategically choose different starting areas and visit more often, mailing each other things that might be common in their land but rare in others.
For solo players, when your world hits 5 stars, you could unlock the ability to travel to another land permanently without the need for nook miles or traveling tickets. Master that area and move onto the next and so on.
This change could also make the museum very interesting especially if it has the 5 areas for unlockables inside. I would also like if bugs and fish had different sizes and values. People could keep trying to beat their personal bests with fish or bugs or higher quality fossils.
What do you think? What would you like to see in the next game?
