Not really sure how I feel about this game so far, being honest. I didn't expect the game to be such an absurd drip feed. I knew things worked in real time, but it feels like every time I log in, I do one task and then am told to wait until tomorrow for the next event to trigger so I just log off again.
That being said, I went for a tour of my Sister's island (she has designed it kinda like the Fairy Town from Sword and Shield) and we hung out in her museum and it was just a really amazing time. I don't see my Sister very often as we live far apart now, so the Switch has always been a way for us to connect, but having a game where we can just hang out, is really cool.
She also has helped me circumvent some of the grind, I didn't want too much help as I didn't want to break the game, but I was hoping it would at least speed up some of that earlier stuff so I could just get to the fun parts but it looks like there isn't really much circumvention around the real time events.
Finally, at long last, Redd today had the last statue that I need for my museum. So when it comes in the mail tomorrow I will for the first time in any Animal Crossing game complete the museum (and I've played them all except Wild World)! Hooray!

I recieved a physical UK version of Animal Crossing New Horizons as a gift along with a US code for the Happy Home Paradise DLC. If I redeem the DLC code can I access it with the UK copy of Animal Crossing? I've heard that there are games that can work with DLC from different regions and games that don't so I'm not sure which side Animal Crossing New Horizons is on.
Absolutely crazy that this game is three years old now. This was actually the first Nintendo game I had ever preordered since I was so excited about it. It was released right at the start of the pandemic when everything was shutting down, and I seriously think its release could not have been timed better, at least for me. It was such an amazing game to pass the time and escape from the problems that everyone was facing for a few hours. I remember playing it for the first time and being absolutely blown away by the visuals, the music, and just how relaxing it was to play. While New Leaf is probably the better game overall, this game will always have a special place in my heart for getting me and millions of others through arguably one of the most difficult periods in our lifetime.

@StarPoint Ah yeah, I agree for sure. I've played New Horizons since it came out (I've preordered it on the eShop), and I sunk so many hours into it! I made quite a few friends in this very thread, too. (Shout-outs to folks like @BrittGOAL14, @FattyWhale_42, @foxyflimflam, and @Gret8888!) We would do stuff like checking each other's islands out, helping each other with giving items like paintings, and even playing a custom board game together. I recently came back to this game since I played with a friend from college, that got me in the mood to play it again. I still have some things left to do, I wanna try to complete my museum.

AKA MarioVillager92. Ask if you want to be Switch friends with me, but I want to get to know you first. Thanks! ❤️
@MarioLover92 you never finished your museum? I know I collected a bunch of items for you and James that I never got to send you. My niece started playing ACNH last Christmas and I gave her a ton of items. You should update the spreadsheet and if I still have the items I saved for you I will send them. I revisit Fanta$y Island once or twice per year now just to remember how much fun it we all had. And yes, I made some great AC friends because of that game!
