There are so many reasons to love Animal Crossing.
It's cozy happy game and everyone can make their own rules, their own way to play the game. Endless customisation and item creation. Not interested to create anything? Just buy the items from other players.
You can set set the rules & environment, the game is like a blank canvas.
I'm personally playing the game in Rags to Riches form. I have decided that only way for me to make money in the game is to make & sell DIY items and for me it's really fun! Seems like I enjoy the most when I maximize the misery 😁
