Characters have unique interests and personalities that can change across versions as the characters grow and change there is also a range of character types that helps us understand how they will behave, what their schedule will be like, and even what other villagers they will like or dislike.
Animal Crossing is a much loved and fiercely protected legacy! It has been running now for quite some time (2001 to be exact) back when the only way I could play it was on my Nintendo DS (pink of course) in bed at night well past my bedtime and hiding it under my pillow from my mum! That’s why (for me) Animal Crossing is so nostalgic, it’s like a big hug! I cannot explain how satisfying it is to go from seeing the island on a tiny Nintendo DS screen to being able to hook it up to my big TV via my Switch and be cozy in bed playing it (It is the ultimate luxury and cozy vibes!)įor a game to run and for the game to hold me for the best of twenty years, you know it must be great! Of course, we know that Animal Crossing is an amazing and immersive island life simulator and experience (which is why I love it so much and have played it for so long) and the reason it has been able to hold my attention and indeed my love and loyalty for so long is that it is so incredibly detailed in its range of characters and not only this but these characters evolve and change with time.
