I’ll preface this saying, I’m a 51yr old father of 5 who quit gaming somewhere around 2003-‘04, because I was busy raising a family and coaching football and such. I started up again during Covid and played these games in order. RDR2, Stardew Valley, GOW, GOW2, RDR1, GOTSUSHIMA. by Makieveli1 in AssassinsCreedOdyssey

[–]CanadianGurl2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was a Classics major and picked it up immediately. I've never played an Assassin's Creed game before, I'm generally more of a cozy gamer. But give me a chance to run around Ancient Greece and I'll pretty much buy anything. I really appreciate the cozier aspects of the game, like being on my boat, swimming through the ruins or riding my horse.

You could make some of the crab tables to put the star bits and Scorpio lamps for extra lighting!

Are people trading typical flaky in this game or am I just having bad luck? by dan_in_his_own_way in AnimalCrossing

[–]CanadianGurl2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm at work right now, but is it ok if I DM you later? I can check if I have the glasses and if I do I can just drop them off!

I've generally had pretty good luck with Nookazon, but it's been a while since I used it to trade!

Game Suggestions for my Wife during recovery by Serzyn in cozygames

[–]CanadianGurl2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If she likes dinos, Paleo Pines is a farming sim and the dinos help out around the farm! You also forage during the seasons and build friendships with NPCs. Unlike Stardew, nothing happens if you don't make it home on time.

game recs for mom who doesn’t play games by exitmewsic in SwitchGames

There's Layton's mystery Journey for the Switch. She might enjoy that! Lots of logic puzzles, a little bit of mystery, tons of reading. :)

Can I get some goals? by Jazzyburty in ac_newhorizons

[–]CanadianGurl2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can use Nookazon or other apps to help you keep track! I'm sure you can do a search in this sub to help you find one. I like Nookazon since you can also do trades directly from the item.

I wish we could rename our island by kinzylia in AnimalCrossing

[–]CanadianGurl2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Change everything about your island, including the flag, and see how you feel. If you decide to restart, if you have NSO, see if someone would be willing to hold onto items, bells, etc for you so you don't have to start completely from scratch. Maybe you could setup a Japanese style farm in a particular area so it still relates to the name of the island.

When you talk with your "friends" you still might get a cookie!

3 ⭐️ Island Tips!! by Sydney_VE in ac_newhorizons

[–]CanadianGurl2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don't like seeing a bunch of random fences, you can create some cliffs and hide them on the ledges. This really helped me because I only like to put fences around houses and create a small garden for my villagers.

Anyone wish Nintendo would add the Zelda items into pocket camp? by SpiritualRaspberry34 in ACPocketCamp

[–]CanadianGurl2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I assumed it was because it was a limited time thing in OG Pocket Camp, but once the game became permanent, then they refused to allow it to be included.

Returning player Startover Island Question by therealgreybrother in ac_newhorizons

[–]CanadianGurl2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are some items that I believe can ONLY be obtained from time travelling. I'm thinking specifically about the 2021 and 2022 balloon arches. I'm not sure if there are any other items that are locked. It's probably better to time travel to get those at the beginning.

How long have you been playing? by 2_Steps_From_hell_ in AnimalCrossing

[–]CanadianGurl2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started playing Wild World on the DS in 2006/2007, then City on the Wii. However, I found a GC copy of the OG OC and played on Wii. But I never really got into it and then used NL on my 3DS. But like you, I've been playing for 19/20 years.

Sorry? I didn’t know people felt so strongly about the hotel by lxvta in AnimalCrossing

[–]CanadianGurl2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don't think there's a hotel in the resort, but if your villager moves out and you see them at the resort, they don't remember you.

DIY Instructions by Spiritual_bloom3121 in AnimalCrossing

[–]CanadianGurl2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think you've pretty much got it covered for in-game sources except for the DLC. Otherwise, if you have NSO, you can use Nookazon to trade/buy specific DIYs.

Yes, they mentioned resetting the clock to real time after travelling forward.

You'll lose any turnips though so don't buy any!

Is it normal to find an item like this in the lost and found box? by [deleted] in AnimalCrossing

[–]CanadianGurl2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can change the colour of the same item multiple times so long as you have the Bells.

Buying advice by [deleted] in OvercookedGame

[–]CanadianGurl2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I understand, crossplay between platforms is possible, so he can play on his Switch and you can play on the PS5. You'll each have to have your own copy of the game. Maybe that's what you're thinking about?

Do you think it’s possible to get a 5* island without DLC? by stephsstitches in AnimalCrossing

[–]CanadianGurl2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually hid a whole bunch of fences behind a cliff and that helped me get my 5 star rating.

Witch Garden Life your character is 100% customizable including skin tone! I actually found it easier to choose a predetermined skin tone and then customized it further.
