If you happen to live in the UK, then you’ll know that the weather this week has been pretty glorious – mostly. So, as I was out on one of my evening walks with the dog, I gazed out toward the horizon as the sun was setting. Crepuscular rays pierced through the clouds and trees, butterflies erratically flip-flopped around my head, and I found my mind begin to drift toward Animal Crossing; was it about time I started a new game from scratch?
It’s been a while since I last played Animal Crossing. New Horizons had done its job in keeping my mind occupied during the pandemic and accompanying lockdown, and truth be told, I wasn’t all that keen on dredging up memories by booting up my old save (not to mention the perturbed island residents I’d have to deal with). So I had to make a decision: do I just delete my New Horizons save and start again, or do I go back even further and revisit New Leaf?
