That makes it the top reviewed game of 2020 so far although Doom Eternal reviews are gonna hit soon too

If it holds it also makes it better reviewed than any 2019 game! I reckon it lasts until TLoU personally.

Incredibly glowing Eurogamer review: https://www.metacritic.com/game/switch/animal-crossing-new-horizons/critic-reviews

Wow I haven't played Animal Crossing since the Gamecube one (which I loved). Tempted after seeing such high praise.

For reference, New Leaf ended up at 88, ACGC at 87, Wild World at 86, and City Folk like 73 or so.

I skipped City Folk entirely; what caused such poor reception to that one in particular?

I havent watched the full video, but someone told me the GameXplain review says theres no Kappn???

See now this is why I'm kinda iffy on the game. I'm a huge animal crossing fan but sometimes animal crossing fans (much like pokemon fans) completely ignore giant flaws that make games unplayable.

GameXplain video also said that in the three weeks he's played, he hasn't dug up a single gyroid. Here's hoping some of this stuff is in the Day 1 update that adds Bunny Day.

you already live on an island and take a plane to visit other islands

the world has left Kapp'n behind.

Evidence that there may be more than 10 animals allowed on the island.

https://66.media.tumblr.com/f7d53c1aec4800b5135f5cefd745bd58/8d0b1fafee77e602-b9/s1280x1920/494387498939b2ca4ca84c127eec82a998be9379.png

He's got 10 neighbors on the map, with what could be an 11th one being built. It's possible it's some other building, but based on the way he's designing his island, it sure looks like it'd be a spot dedicated for an animal.

tfw the dillos topic is the only source of Animal Crossing hype on the board.

Also it seems the above post was not actually evidence of over 10 animal neighbors.
