A COMPREHENSIVE ENCYCLOPEDIA OF TRUTHS AND MYTHS

regarding Animal Crossing: New Horizons
 

[0000] READ ME IF YOU'RE ON THE EDGE REGARDING DIVING INTO THE GAME

Unfortunately, Nintendo is quite notorious for doing everything in their power to ensure that you spend that ¥6,578 (or US$60, or €60, or £50, or...) with as little doubt as possible. The measures they employ range from what is typical for any video game company attempting to prevent piracy, such as encryption within the game cartridge, to more devious measures such as not providing a free demo, to downright sinister measures such as an intentionally vague description that alludes to absolutely nothing as far as day-to-day life in the game goes, and that's not even touching their refund policy. As such, I don't blame anyone for kind of leaning in the exact opposite direction, wanting to learn as much about the game as possible before making the decision as to whether they should buy it.

The rest of this document will kinda make no sense to you, nor will it be engaging to you, if you don't have the game. However, just for the introductory of introductions, let's ask the question: Should you buy Animal Crossing: New Horizons?

Well, first of all, it is literally impossible for someone who spent hundreds of hours or more on the game, and enjoyed every last second of it, to give you an unbiased answer. Indeed, the temptation to just make a section with only a single word, "Yes.", is hard to resist. But nevertheless, let's approach it in the exact same way in which a walkthrough author would approach the question of whether or not to buy a specific in-game item.
