I did the Reese and Cyrus event probably 15-20 times last month. I WANTED ALL THAT EXCLUSIVE FURNITURE. And I got all of it, plus a couple duplicates. Need them pews. Need them pipe organs.
At first I was trying to design tasteful sets but then I realized all Reese wanted was colors, and the sets of colors available for the wedding furniture corresponded to her three set ideas entirely. By the end, I was just filling up the room like this
I have been meaning to share my attempts at happy anniversary snaps too, might do that later.
I couldn’t work out how to get other villagers to be involved, the tab was always empty
It turns out you just had to keep going day after day. Eventually they have you throw an “actual” reception in which you can invite your islanders, Harv, and Wilbur. After that Reece starts having you design wedding scenes with different color schemes.
swimming is honestly a lot of fun just to be able to see your island and it’s landmarks from a different angle. i like having another little checklist, recipes, and npc around. i noticed a couple of other changes like “do you want this?” is now the more specific “here’s a gift”. you don’t have to keep chasing after sararah now after every interaction and there’s a proper “trade for tickets directly” option now. they also fixed an animation bug where one of my characters just stood in front of the workbench without hammering when they had a diy. also i managed to fill up my entire inventory so i guess i gotta do some cleaning/organizing/crafting
Also heads up that the horseshoe crab is like the snapping turtle in that it’s placeable form has no cage and is interactable. I can’t wait to get tons of these guys.
Anyone get gifted an art piece by a villager? One of mine mailed me a gallant statue (Michelangelo’s David) and I was all excited about having a non-painting piece to donate but it was a fake…
Felt it would be a good addition to my barely readable crime scene/creepy voyeur dungeon room of sorts gone wrong but it’s even more of a mess now (nsfw statue)
the “throwback” theme is so weird. like generally it’s just “boys room” but it’s so incoherent. racecar bed, rocketship dresser, robot clock, skull radio, dinosaur screen, sports furniture…it’s not like an actual child it’s like calvin from calvin and hobbes’ room
It’s not the best price, and folks probably don’t need money at this point very much, but my turnips are at 189 for the next 3 hours, more or less. Gate’s open.
