Animal Crossing: New Horizons - The Drugs Don't Work, They Just Make You Worse (Jimpressions)

Animal Crossing: New Horizons is a game I wouldn't expect to get criticized too seriously in this video. Mostly because I don't respect the game enough. 

I'm notoriously lacking in patience, but Animal Crossing has always had a charm to it that allowed me to tolerate its time wasting bollocks. Considering New Horizons wants you to work just to get to Animal Crossing's usual brand of time wasting bollocks has eliminated that tolerance. 

I'd rather talk about tomatoes though.

From your BotW review I expected weapon durability to be a great debilitation, but it didn't take long at all for the true enemy to be inventory space. Within a couple hours I was throwing away 30 attack weapons for 50 attack weapons, then throwing those away for 70 attack weapons, and this abundance followed me for the rest of the game. I guess what I'm getting at is I have no idea how seriously to take your complaint about item durability when last time it was a (pleasantly surprising) non-issue.

Chillies are also fruits.

When does the caco demon spawn directly behind you and maul your face?

"I know some of you are sat there, thinking to yourselves, he's going somewhere with this. He's got a point to make about Animal Crossing's New Horizon with this." ...And to you, I say, welcome to The Jimquisition! You must be new here. My daughter's enjoying it. If you're going to be socked in with quarantine, maybe a bit of extra busy work isn't the worst thing in the world. I'm not a fan of weapon degredation myself, but, y'know, whatever. Cute animals burble at you, and you choose how to furnish your house, and you get to socialize with a relatively benign cast of characters, none of whom are going to kill you by refusing to stay six feet away and cough into their elbows. S'all right.

I don't even think Hyrule Warriors is the best first party game on Switch.

I wonder if Jim sees any irony in complaining of Animal Crossing’s repetition while calling Hyrule Warriors the best first party game on Switch

I love eating tomatoes raw, sometimes with salt on buttered bread. But I don't like them cooked. Unless they're sauce or soup. But not chunky, the texture is awful. I'm a big Animal Crossing fan and I enjoy this one a lot. It's the only game I own for the Switch (and it'll probably stay that way because the console is a bit of a mess in my opinion) so maybe I'm being blinded by the money I just spent on it, but after three days of playing I've gotten used to it's new quirks (aka the new annoyances it throws at the player). But I can understand why people wouldn't like it. Nintendo takes one step forward, two steps in ...any other direction, really. To me, item durability is the worst thing in AC since Pocket Camp. Or maybe since the "one island per console" thing. Or the lack of local save backups. Or the game not being finished at launch. There's a lot that's not great about this one, actually. I enjoy the game itself but my main issues have to do with Nintendo's services, I guess is what I'm saying. Wait, sorry, what I actually meant to say was: How dare you say that? It's a 10/10 game, how dare you give it that low score, you will be hearing about this for years to come, you hack, you fraud! Your career is over! This video is a disgrace to gaming journalism! You Doom cuck... you duck!
