Things I'd like to see in this game:
New furniture, fertilizer to restore the grass, maybe offered in regular-silver-and gold for varying degrees of effectiveness. Patterns not limited to palettes or less limited. More Pattern pocket storage so you can put down in town and store more. Each room has it's own storage compartments for dressers so upgrades gets you more storage. Mail storage with labels. Townies can wear hats. I could go on but I'll stop there. How many of these things do you think they've included in the new game?
