I've seen a few threads where folks have been lamenting the villagers who showed up as their first campsite visitor, who I gather you're forced to invite to live on your island.

My first one showed up today, and I actually like them! It turned out to be Chadder, who I haven't met previously. I really like his design - a mouse who looks like he's made out of cheese, with a name that's corrupted from that of a real cheese, is quite novel.

Did anybody else like their first camper?

The campsite was built today so I have yet to see the first villager that arrives, but I gotta say, I love Chadder. He's so cute!!

No, I have gotten Bearo!

yeeees! my first one was Julian *_*

Not here. My wife got Marshal, which is a character she was even willing to amiibo for, so that worked out

I got Pietro and, while he's not exactly a favorite of mine in the looks department, his personality is adorable, so overall I’m quite pleased.

I got Beardo~ Not someone I would call a 'dreamie' by any means, but he's so cute with his little mustache and dapper little outfit. He's allowed to stay a while. d:
(Tammi and Canberra can leave though. >:c)

I got Rex

I got Zell who I never met before but he has a gorgeous house, loves to dance and walks around with a purse 90% of the time and I'd die for him

My first was Kidd, who is kind of a mid tier villager for me. no strong feelings one way or the other

O'Hare. I'm okay with that; he's cute IMO

I also got O'Hare! I've never been an O'Hare fan (nor an O'Hare hater, haha, just wasn't one I thought much of at all) but honestly I'm quite pleased with him and have a feeling he may become one of my new favorites.

I got Pietro! He moved in the day after the campsite was completed <3

I got Pietro.. He's okay, not terrible, not great. I would have liked Jacques or Phil for my first Smug but I'll settle he can always move out at some point.

I got Leopold yesterday. Don't hate or love him - never really had him before.

Yeah I got Marshall!!

I was fortunate enough to have Eugene as my first camper. I had him in my main New Leaf town and think he’s so cute and hip.

I wish this game was clearer about how villagers moved into your island. At first it seemed you would invite all villagers to your island by visiting other islands via Nook Tickets. But after you invite three villagers from these islands this stops being a possible method. Honestly, this really frustrated me, and had I known this, I would had been far pickier about who I invited.

Now, days later, I'm finally introduced to a new method of inviting villagers to the island, and I'm not even allowed to choose? I got Quillson as my first visitor, and while I don't explicitly hate him, I definitely would not have invited him to my island. I was so devastated to find out I didn't have a choice in the manner.

If I didn't already make so much progress in this game I would seriously consider resetting. Oh well, I'll have the villagers I want eventually.

^The game isn't exactly clear on a lot of things. =\ I think they need to explain it better.

As for me, I got Lucha!! He's so awesome and reminds me of a local wrestler from my hometown.

I kind of like us not getting to hand-pick every single villager . I appreciated having an early say for the 3 after the initial move in but was worried everything would be too "perfect".

Part of the fun in ac for me is things being left up to chance.  

Though I am curious, after the campsite villager is  the mystery island tour method not viable from here on out at all  

I currently don't have any villagers I like. My first campsite visitor was Julain. My fiancé (who has never played AC before now) only bought the game to play with me and got Antonio from the beginning.

Yep. My main town got Kidd. He was in one of my NL towns, I really liked him, and took a long time before finally having to move him because his house placement was not compatible with my plan for that town. He's unpacking today, so I'll see him tomorrow. When he was still in the tent, I caught Sherb very far from home, stalking him, so we'll see how that goes.

My 2nd town got Ed, who I never had before. He's pretty good, gave me a gift already.

Bit of a warning, though. I laid out a plot as per Nook's instruction and the next day it was sold to Tipper. Absolutely no warning, just hey, Tipper's moving in. Good thing I don't mind her, and she'll fill a role in my plans.

bjm515 - Julian is a very popular and highly requested villager, so it's funny to hear that you don't particularly care for him.

Yeah I got Marshall

I got Graham and I like him, I had him in NL as well.

I'm guessing the first camper is always a Smug Male, just like the starting two are always Uchi + Jock? Seems to be the case based off my friends and skimming here.
