I usually give my villagers presents as a way of off loading tat I don't want. They usually repay me with more tat, but the odd time I get something I want.

One or two of them craft something in their home everyday so it's a good way of picking up DIYs too.

There are miles earned for speaking to villagers too.

Sprocket asked to leave today after I built the git a bed. I made him stay.

@Shufflebudge

What’s the benefit/ point of becoming friends with villagers....I normally just ignore them mostly!
They give you gifts in return, and also eventually if you become best friends they give you a photo of themselves. Lots of people who play aim to keep villagers until they get the photo. Also different types of villager give you different DIYs when you visit their house.

No negatives to time travel - only that if you have bought turnips and you travel back they will have rotted.

You can change their greetings and catchphrases They will also give you items at random

@Magissa I'm just about to try it now for the first time, I've gone back 7 days and am now going to work my way forward. 🤞🏻 for some hybrids

Natsku · 19/03/2021 12:19

Oh and weeds will grow a bit more when you time travel and if you go quite far ahead then you'll get cockroaches in your house, which you can just stamp on to kill (which seems cruel in this world...)

Natsku · 19/03/2021 12:18

Yeah you save the game first and close it, then change the date. It does affect your villagers so if you travel ahead two weeks it'll be like you ignored them for two weeks so they might be upset and someone might ask to leave, that's why I don't like to go more than a few days ahead.

Hmm I don't know if you can go back to before you started, never tried.

Magissa · 19/03/2021 12:09

@Natsku and can you go back to before you even started?!

Magissa · 19/03/2021 12:07

@Natsku
Are there any risks to time travel? Do you save you game first then change date to whenever...? Does it effect villagers? Eg if you are two weeks ahead you haven't spoken to them for two weeks or am I just struggling with the concept?!

Natsku · 19/03/2021 11:53

Didn't see any good prices on my travels and didn't want to go too far ahead.

unexpectedthird · 19/03/2021 11:35

Sorry @Magissa, mine are just 110 at the moment. Maybe after 12 they'll improve!

Natsku · 19/03/2021 11:34

@Magissa

I don't suppose anyone has a decent turnip price today? I just found some I had not seen as they were behind something...
I have to do some time travelling to sort out my hotel so I'll have a look at prices too
unexpectedthird · 19/03/2021 11:32

No problem @BugsAndBeesAndBirdsAndButterfl. I'm trying to grow purple roses, tulips and pansies just now and it's taking aaaages. I have one purple rose and one purple tulip so I'm hoping if I can grow another one of each they might start breeding too. 🤞🏻🤞🏻

I've found my blue roses breed really well so once you have a couple you should be set!

JLbaby · 19/03/2021 11:10

@BugsAndBeesAndBirdsAndButterfl I eventually got a blue rose from hybrid reds (which came from C oranges), it took absolutely ages though!!

BugsAndBeesAndBirdsAndButterfl · 19/03/2021 10:14

@unexpectedthird thankyou that's really kind but I'm now determined to make them myself!

Natsku · 19/03/2021 10:13

I gave Chief a fabulous tail coat but then I stupidly gave him some other clothing I wanted rid of and now he wears that instead of the tail coat, which I later found in recycling :(

@DonGray They do seem to gravitate to the horrendous items

Info on friendship levels here gamewith.net/animal-crossing-new-horizons/article/show/18318

The advantage of giving them fossils is that they can't display them or wear them. I was giving villagers the stuff I didn't like but then they wear all the ugly outfits!

unexpectedthird · 19/03/2021 09:48

@BugsAndBeesAndBirdsAndButterfl I can give you some blue roses to help you get started if you like?

SavingsQuestions · 19/03/2021 09:41

If you have more than 2 pipes is it conpletely random where they go? They've confused me so I've taken them out!

BugsAndBeesAndBirdsAndButterfl · 19/03/2021 09:41

Do they prefer fossils to other presents then? Does wrapping really make a difference?

Which is the right app? When I went onto google play there were lots 😭. I'd like to know what my villagers like! And see how many diys I have.

I am failing at flower breeding. Ive read 2 completely different guides for blue roses...

And I've got lots of orange ones nect to each other but they aren't breeding yet.

I have got a gold rose though!!

Nomaj · 19/03/2021 09:27
