What the hell is up with the grass deterioration?
This is my first Animal Crossing game and I've only played it for 5-6 hours so far, over the course of the last three days, yet I'm getting these big patches of dirt everywhere. I did run around the town for the forty minutes I played before I was told it could damage the grass (you'd think the game would mention this mechanic, ugh). That said, after reading up on the game it seems the main thing that's probably causing it for me is the fact that I load the game several times a day.
I've been playing this alongside Pokemon, and usually play the game in half-hour chunks 3-4 times a day. Why am I punished for the way I choose to play the game? I don't have time to get everything done all at once, and I WANT to play a few times a day. Apparently saving the game causes the deterioration to happen as well? Well fuck me, I've been playing this with a friend and every time I let him into my town the game is forced to save.
Is there anything I can do? I've started moving all of my flowers onto some of the dirt patches but I don't have enough yet...I don't even have 100% approval rating as a Mayor, if that gives you an indication of how early into the game I am.
