As invaluable as this game was for the first 3 weeks of my lockdown experience, I can't say it''s really stuck with me much past that. I'll still log in every so often and feel warm and relaxed at the amount of charm, cuteness and customisation work you can do in-game, but then it slowly gives away to the grindy nature of the game which kinda kills it a bit for me.

I dunno if I'm just playing Animal Crossing games wrong or they're not for me or maybe there's just a lack of content atm that makes the game feel less lived in and natural. Whatever it is, it's unfortunate that I haven't stuck with it more.

I do love my villagers though. Including myself. Half of my Switch screenshot album is just me in Animal Crossing. Lewisiscute.
