    The only thing about ACNH I really dislike so far after just getting is the lack of consistency in what you’re able to do.
    You place something with the expectation that it’s going to be there based on your current parameters, but suddenly you unlock things like the ladder and terraforming and now you want to move everything to a better location.

    I’m sure someone is going to give me the smartass response if: “You should’ve planned,” but I’m not exactly an expert on ACNH or a genius builder at that. I don’t want to have to obtain every cent of knowledge from the internet, I want to go at my own pace. Thus, I’m becoming increasingly annoyed with the fact everything I’ve placed has now been opened up into different possibilities. Knowing what Tom Nook could’ve told me, shouldn’t I have known that I could put them in new locations eventually to begin with? Now I’m stuck with bad locations and it will take a huge amount of money and time to work through moving everything to possible locations.

    My island is an absolute mess right now I desperately need to reorganize everything so that I can feel at least a little happy with how it looks. :’>

    I recently restarted my island and I unlocked terraforming and I’m VERY overwhelmed-

    Jeez, but Tom Nook that jerk doesnt give me path license

  5. Not Kermit on June 4, 2022 at 11:48 pm

    *Let’s stop lying to ourselves…* this game is Animal Crossing Happy House Designer but it’s Island Designer.
    Where in the world can you put, modify, do all these things in "Your" island when you don’t have any role, you’re just a regular person, no job and you’re not even the *MAYOR.*

    The game doesn’t make sense, you guys got scammed by Nintendo, if you think Nintendo are not human and they always have innocent Ideas about what they will do in their industry, you’re wrong.

    I’m not buying this game anytime soon, I don’t fuck with this game, I fuck with New Leaf and the old ones.
    *Tbh I don’t even care if you’re butthurt now.*

  16. Jordan R on June 5, 2022 at 12:04 am

    How do you add the custom designs to your terraforming for placing it on the ground? I saw you had it but I don’t know how to do it.

  29. Kaede Sakura on June 5, 2022 at 12:18 am

    Jumpy blocks away from rivers seem like an unnecessary time sink

  30. Angry 😡 Cat on June 5, 2022 at 12:19 am

  31. fever dream ASMR on June 5, 2022 at 12:20 am

    Wish I could just mass delete areas instead of having to go block by block

  42. Switch Unboxing on June 5, 2022 at 12:32 am

    I don’t understand that last tip

  43. Austin Quezada on June 5, 2022 at 12:36 am

    My island is too rectangular!!!

  44. olivia ransley on June 5, 2022 at 12:36 am

    who anything recommend moving all building to another part of the island until terraforming is done? i’m having issues working around buildings

  45. TheOutsider Jess on June 5, 2022 at 12:37 am

    This is my first animal crossing game so I have no clue what I want to do

  46. Anthony Striker on June 5, 2022 at 12:37 am

    How did you climb your cliff? I cant do it with my ladder

  47. Fried Spaghetti on June 5, 2022 at 12:37 am

    When you replace trees you don’t have to put it in a hole,save shovel durability

  48. Chaz Z on June 5, 2022 at 12:38 am

    How I wish resident services could be moved -_- my layout plans are ruined

  49. juni cortez Gaming on June 5, 2022 at 12:39 am

    I don’t know what I should build on my islands yet

  50. Katja Hoffmann on June 5, 2022 at 12:39 am

    Keep it mind! The website for planning your island is in scale much bigger than your actual island. So don’t make it too detailed you won’t be able to fit everything exactly how you planned out
