Ugh, like wtf, why would the game give me a daily 2xNook-Miles-Challenge where I have to catch a rare fish like Tuna? I'm on Day 11 and encountered this fish only two times so far...

Only 5 pages remain until we hit 400 pages.
Time to vote for...
OT2 TITLE

I never would have thought that within 12 days we'd already be at the point of thinking about an OT2 but here we are! OT2 is going to hit when we reach 400 pages in this thread and I thought I'd let you all vote on your favourite title for OT2. Thanks to everyone who submitted the title suggestions - please vote below poll will be open until we hit page 399 then results will be taken and applied to OT2 before page 400 is hit.



Direct link: https://www.strawpoll.me/19654420

It's the final few pages of this OT - so get your votes in for OT2 while you still can!

You can vote here: https://www.strawpoll.me/19654420
But remember when voting... we have a separate Turnip specific thread now for all turnip trading and tracking.

Guys, I figured it out. There is no stringfish. It was just an early April Fool's joke. It's a myth and nothing more

I'm not the type to complain about missing content because I think it's a trap for devs and fans to expect every single sequel to include "everything from the other games + MORE" but I have to admit I miss the fortune cookies. That was one little collecting minigame I liked a lot and was a core part of my routine in NL.

I miss them as well. It was fun collecting them and I also enjoyed trading duplicates to other people who had something I didn't have.

For the stringfish, I have 2 ponds at highest peak of my island. Should I be able to catch it from either?

I dumped about 10 loads of bait yesterday and no joy!

How much stuff is shared between players on a switch? My daughter just started playing and I've got to the point where I can invite animals from islands/campsite so most things are unlocked.

- does she get her own things to discover or is to one set that will disappear if I get them? Eg fossils/message in a bottle/fruits on trees/fold in ground/materials from rocks/wood from trees etc?

basically - anything that doesn't infinitely spawn like insects/fish - do we now have only half available to each of us (and realistically I'd try and leave as much as possible for her to discover in early days)

also - can she invite villagers from nook islands if I build a Plot for them?

Messages in bottles seem to respawn and actually give different recipes. The rest is first come first serve.

How do the first round of neighbors work? I know it forces certain personalities on you. I really want Pietro, but Keaton (smug) was my first campsite person and I moved him in. Yesterday I found Olaf (smug) on an island and invited him and he'll move in tomorrow. I was just on an (spider) island and Tipper (snooty) was there.

At this point is it free game for villagers on islands after first campsite person? If so, I'm fine rolling islands until I get villagers I want - provided they are indeed in the mix of all possibilities.

haha I feel the same. I had a nice loop going in a mystery island where I got 12 sturgeon....and zero stringfish in about 2ish hours ;( Been searching for it for the last 3-4 days and I'm over it. haha.

Is it a good idea to replace all the non fruit trees in my island with fruit trees? I can still get all three types of wood from chopping fruit trees, can't I?

thanks. Seems a bit sucky - less resources, less ways to earn miles, so less miles to spend etc. If you have 4 on one device that would be a nightmare?

I don't know how often my daughter will play so now I feel I have to hold off on rocks/fossils etc until the end of the day to give her space to build things up..

There's no greater tension than when you encounter a tarantula, take your net out, and tiptoe over to it.

Glad I was able to sell 'em to Flick while he's here.

I hate almost all my villagers. My grand idea to not talk to anyone on any island or camping until someone shows up i like didn't work, nook just sold my precious house to whoever the fuck and now i'm stuck with MORE villagers I don't like.

I swear I'm close to restarting the whole thing. All I want is Fuchsia, I'd even deal with Beau or Fauna, and I'm stuck with like two pigs, a fun penguin and a bunch of randos. Gah.

So far I have two jocks (Hamlet and Boone), a peppy personality (Wendy), two normals (Skye and Canberra), a snobby animal (Olaf), and a lazy one (Egbert). Hopefully I stop running into jocks.
