>>53744787Yeah, it really felt like I ran out of things to do after a few months of playing New Leaf and New Horizons. I played City Folks for over two years and GCN even longer, though that's probably more due to preference. It also doesn't help that it's way easier to pay off the debt in the newer games that in the older ones, I think it only took me two weeks of a couple hours per day to pay off all the house upgrades in New Horizons compared to the multiple months it would take me in other games.
It almost feels like Nintendo put more focus on customization for the newer games, and too away focus from the economy to compensate for investing more time into coding such attributes, but in doing so, it feels like anyone that doesn't want to turn the entire town into their own passion project is out of luck once they pay off their debt since you can only upgrade the shop in New Horizons once and can't buy any flashy stuff from it. In that game, it almost feels like the progress you make in that game is done by unlocking all the other stuff that you already had from previous games (Mabel Sisters, K.K. Slider, etc.).
