little ways to enjoy new horizons more đż
- send your villagers postcards! i write to everyone about seasons changing, upcoming holidays, the weather, thank you notes, and whatever else while keeping their personality type in mind just for fun
- play at different times of the day. not only will you get more dialogue from your villagers, it creates a whole new atmosphere, like fishing in the middle of the night under the stars
- do things even if youâve gotten all the available goodies! visit the roost for coffee, participate in bug-offs and fishing tourneys, play the holiday events, go to kk concerts, etc. try to enjoy them for the experience instead of the reward
- change your outfits up! put on some rain boots and grab an umbrella when the weather turns, pop on your shades and sun hat, bundle up in the snow, put on pjs late at night, dress up for birthday parties, the list goes on
- set casual gameplay goals, even if theyâre silly. try to reach a 100m bells saved, complete the museum or every nook mile challenge, collect every gyroid in the game, trap every villager on your island with a pitfall seed, you name it!
- even if you donât need bells, go fishing, bug hunting, or diving now and then. when youâre just playing and not grinding for anything in particular it can be really enjoyable and relaxing
- give your lesser used features a good run once in a while! spend some time walking through the museum, have a photo shoot at photopia, do a few random dream address visits, or whatever else you donât do very often (if ever)
- take in and appreciate the little things. look for shooting stars or the northern lights on a clear night, bake cookies for your villagers on holidays, change out your door decoration seasonally, leave messages on the bulletin board, clap along to kappân and kkâs songs, watch the sun rise and set on the beach. your gameplay experience is ultimately up to you!
