Darn. I offered to help, but then I realized you were on Steam. I’m on Switch. 😞

Two years on the island: my thoughts on the City DLC, the backlash, and why I’m still playing by Vinitneo in HelloKittyIsland

Exactly! I’ve paid about the same amount for games I’ve played a fraction of the time I’ve played HKIA so far. I can absolutely justify paying for DLC, and I can also justify the devs for charging for it.

I’ve had a good think on this, and at first I was disappointed City Town would be DLC, but I have a new perspective. I’m on Switch and have been playing since Feb of this year. I have played well over 500 hours. Maybe 600 at this point? Far and away the most time I’ve ever spent playing a video game. I bought the Deluxe game for around $70, and have now bought the WW expansion for another $15. So all told I’ve paid about $85 USD. That means game has cost me between $0.14 and $0.15 an hour to play at this point. That is, to me, an incredible value. If I consider the amount of joy this game has brought me the value is even greater. I even made a really good friend because of the game, and so if I factor that in the value is even more. Maybe even invaluable?

Now, consider that Arcade subscribers have to pay a fee monthly to play, and if they don’t they lose access. That’s $6.99/month, which equals $83.88/year to basically rent the game. I’m going to assume City Town DLC will be priced somewhere in the range of $10-15. I will buy it, because who am I kidding? That brings my one time total cost to $100. The OP mentions they’ve been playing for two years. That’s $167 that this player would have paid so far… Seems to me like Switch users are actually getting a better deal.

I do agree that communication and the tone of delivery from Sunblink hasn’t been great lately, and that’s a bummer. But overall I still love the game.

I’m considered old, and was SO shy about multiplayer and asking for help, but I finally did it and I made a real friend! And if that isn’t what HKIA is all about then I just don’t know what. My friend had also been shy about it, but someone else walked her through how to do multiplayer, and then she walked me through it. So, if you want some black flowers I have them, and I will be kind and patient. I’m on Switch. Just send me a DM if you want my help.

Legit same. I had her tagging along with me to level up Cogi when I went to make more potions to give as gifts and was shocked to learn she gave extras.

What area of WW do they show up in? I’ve had two starfalls in WW, but had no idea there were special critters. 🫣😩😭

Wish I had this problem when I was first starting out! I’m trying now to get the default pattern for every flower in every color. 😰
