The format of these posts is simple: let’s discuss a specific game or series!
Sadly I am feeling horribly ill right now, as I have Covid for the 3rd time in my life. Nothing serious, but just feeling like shit for the third day in a row. This made me think back to a game that released at the perfect time during the pandemic (the one that isn’t Among Us).
Let’s discuss the Animal Crossing series. What is your favorite game in the series? What aspects do you like about it? What doesn’t work for you? Are there other games that gave you similar feelings? Feel free to share any thoughts that come up, or react to other peoples comments. Let’s get the conversation going!
If you have any recommendations for games or series for the next post(s), please feel free to DM me or add it in a comment here (no guarantees of course).

I think my favorite in the series is New Leaf so far. Granted, I didn’t play a ton of the GameCube version.
The only thing I wish new leaf did better was how you unlocked public works projects.
Additionally, villagers moving in and ruining your paths/designs was a pain. Otherwise, I thought the game was great. It could have used even more dialogue (which is crazy because it was already very long )
The games hit such a good mix of customizing, collecting, and discovery.
