Hello fellow AC players,

It's been almost a month since I resumed my old AC:NL game after an 1 year break.
I like the map layout, the main street is somewhat developed (TIY, Shampoodles, Kicks, Museum's second floor...), but... Somehow I feel like it's not exactly my game anymore. I kept playing, built some important PWP (the police station and the cafe), completed 1 or 2 furniture sets, renovated and decorated my home until I got 100k HHA points, but something is still feeling off.

Maybe because of the year-long hiatus, I lost the feeling of attachment and that "this is my town that I started from scrach" pride. That being said, I'm seriously thinking of re-creating my town.

If I continue playing, will that feeling come back to me? Or do I start over?

I do not have any dreamies living there or something, but I'm still afraid of loosing all my bells, furniture and main street development.

If you want to visit my dream town before making any comments, I'm Kimiko from San Mimi. I've updated the dream today (there are random flowers scattered everywhere, I kind of slacked off taking care of them this week).

I need an honest opinion on this...

I just bought a second copy of ACNL for a very similar reason. I had taken a long break and came back and felt almost bored with my town, like it wasn't really mine. Now I'm having a blast and can always go back to my other game if I want to feel rich again, haha!

Hi Orla,
unfortunately, where I live games are really, really expensive. So buying another copy of AC:NL (even used ones) is out of the picture for me.
In the end I decided on starting from scratch.
After all, if it bothers me so much that makes me post on a forum, that means I'm not enjoying the game. If I'm not enjoying the game, what's the point of playing it?
So, I'll just move on, get on the train again and choose the next town I'll conquer ... I mean, the next town I'll "accidentaly" be appointed as a mayor.

I restarted. I was SUPER bored with my old town, and decided to start fresh. I don't regret it one bit! I love my layout and currently trying to make paths.
