Hm, I wasn't aware we have school and hospital on the main home island before. Did I miss this somewhere?
Yeah , $25 if you choose to go that route, and you keep it permanently too.
Probably very hard to switch back to the slower pace, but if that's how you've always played it... It's fine.Damn I gotta make a new save. I want to play legit without donations and free bells but I don't know how you can't time skip and still enjoy playing. :(
Yep, some of them were previously exclusive to the Japanese N64 & Gamecube games. (Chabwick, Frett, Azalea, and Roswell.)oh, I thought they were new because I Googled them and nothing came up
Turns out they just never had English names until now
Wonder if they'll all be returning after the initial few new ones. Probably, I guess. There's 8 new ones there for the 8 personality types. There should be 12 more cards to be seen, I think?
I wonder if Cyrus and Reese can also customize items like the surfboard which is a special summer item but is locked to one style on your island and never changes. I hate that I only have the ugly black and green version and can't customize it to the other styles.
lolGullivarr doesn't get a card?
Weird
I mean it's a whole new game thoughHonesty, really great update.
But then you sour the pot with DLC that costs half of the game which has 1/20th the content. I hate DLC models.
Yeah I asked the same question in the other thread and its written in the fine print that it's not permanent if you got it free from the Online Expansion. I"m getting it standalone too.Is the DLC really not permanent if you get the Online Expansion? Best to get it standalone if that's the case, imagine columns and lighting just getting locked after cancelling Online like we're in some sort of EA Sims game.
Right. It's seemingly got as much content as Happy Home Designer, which cost $40 or whatever.
I don't mean to be rude but for us that can't read the whole thread can the OP update the OP with the details or summary. That would be really helpful, thanks!

Yeah it's Mario Maker all over again. Unfortunate, I don't think Nintendo has much interest in adopting live-service models.So, IGN just confirmed that Nintendo says the November 5th update will be the last major update to the game, so……yeesh.
What a mess, especially in comparison to how evergreen Pocket Camp has been treated by Nintendo.
I love you, thanks!Serebii
I wrote this summary. Feel free to add it to the OP:

itd be great if all the island specific variants could be customized. we will see...
they showed a few of them casually at the end of the 2.0 details, and there's no amiibo showcase this time, so it seems like they'll just be rolled into the gamewonder if the new neighbors will be card exclusive or if they'll just throw them in the random pile with the others
I don't think they really mentioned
The Hello Kitty neighbors aren't in the "normal" pilethey showed a few of them casually at the end of the 2.0 details, and there's no amiibo showcase this time, so it seems like they'll just be rolled into the game
i was hoping the crossovers would return but i suppose that's not happening for the same reason
i figure the sanrio stuff is an exception because there's probably some licensing involved, but that's true tooThe Hello Kitty neighbors aren't in the "normal" pile
I'm super disappointed I won't have Epona as a neighbor, but Cephalobot makes it a little better. Except he's probably a jock, and NH Jock neighbors are awful
Yea, they never really mentioned the new neighbors, they're just in the video as normal neighbors and for people who paid attention to the cardsi figure the sanrio stuff is an exception because there's probably some licensing involved, but that's true too
guess we'll have to wait and see, but the lack of fanfare beyond including new ones gives me some hope

Is the DLC really not permanent if you get the Online Expansion? Best to get it standalone if that's the case, imagine columns and lighting just getting locked after cancelling Online like we're in some sort of EA Sims game.
So, if I wanted to buy the DLC individually (not part of the Online membership), I wonder do I need to purchase it twice? My wife and I share the Switch and we'd both want access to it. Or if I purchase it, since we share the cartridge, would that share the DLC?
I just wonder (as I'm sure others have already discussed but thread is long) if it makes more sense to just buy the DLC at $25 or get it with the NSO upgrade.
I don't even care about the old games much (I will subscribe for a bit to play Paper Mario) but not permanently. The structure they are releasing just makes me wonder if Nintendo will be releasing "free" DLC for other games throughout the year as an incentive to stay signed up for the upgraded NSO. In which case, long term it may be cheaper to stay in the expanded NSO rather than buy DLC separately for various titles.
Was there suppose to be another Nook upgrade?I'd be really disappointed if there's no more Nook Cranny update, it's like the only thing that I kept looking after we learned about the datamine. It would also mean no Gracie :(
Shopping is like my favourite activity in Animal Crossing games, and a small shop really hurts, haha.
Did they anything about expanding the bug, fish, and fossil counts?
Not super into the home creation and decorating stuff
