Same here. Not usually my type of game but who knows, I've been super surprised before by jumping in & trying games I'd never have thought I'd like. Fingers crossed.

My first real "Animal Crossing" game... got my copies for me and my daughter digitally. We are loving it already. The museum guy's tent has been set up, my house going up tomorrow, and doing tons of crafting and all. My pocket size is little small - not sure how to expand it yet though.
I had pretty slow day at work - so I was able to put a couple hours into it while killing some time. With all the stuff going around - I found the experience was quite relaxing. Just the game that I needed. I was thinking of playing this game as side game while I tackle others - it looks like it may become my main game and while playing other games on the side... lol

Good tips. I would add that you should save up your nook miles for the 'good tools diy recipe" it's much much easier to deal with the breakages thenGot two essential tips if you haven’t figured them out already:
1- Keep tapping A during crafting animation to speed it up
2- Use the right stick to jump immediately to the completed Nook Miles
Not much but hopefully it helps

Down on right analog. Takes you to a GameCube-ish view. You can also press up while still, to get a really nice view of the sky, and horizon.

Iron is hard to get :’(
Also how do you have this much iron? And how do you also know whats the hot item of the day

Tried smacking some rocks with an axe? Iron tends to spill out of those, one after the other. Even clay, sometimes.

Yeah but haven't been lucky. Mostly clay and extra stone

It’s foggy, but I remember this stuff going for megabucks in the others.
But I’m wondering if you can craft with it. Gold tools, maybe? ^ _ ^

Yes. That’s how all animal crossing games work I believe.
I swear Tom Nook said someone was always available in the shop. Haven’t tried playing super late yet.

Ah, balls
I remember not being able to make the shop bigger until someone visited you. That also held me back. No Nintendo love for social anxiety

I did. Nothing special so far

So for the communicator parts, are you just meant to dig in random spots on the beach? I don't see any sort of indication of where the parts are.
Mista

Little holes on the beach with water coming out of them. Thats your indication

I have that too but they didn't grow yet
I believe you just have to tell the airport guy you want to visit someone online and it should search and find me.
