Oh good!! I’m so glad it’s helpful hah. I love the game but do find it’s easy to get burned out but the designing is definitely what keeps me coming back
i was already planning on soft restarting my island, but this helped me make the final choice of yes!! i’m currently on day one of moving everything around, and yesterday was just picking up all the furniture i own. today i planned out my custom paths, and your guide on how you plan them really helped me save some room!! thank you lauren!
When I first got terraforming I was like "unlimited power!" and it was a mess. So I had to redo my island and move all the villagers houses AGAIN which took all of my life and all my money. But my residential area is cozy and wholesome now so it was worth it.
If you are tearing down the level, the pathing comes with it along with weeds and holes. Water also removes all of those too. Once I discovered this. It changed my life.
The JP music in the beginning had me almost spitting out my coffee!! 😆😆😆 I just recently completely restarted my second Switch island (my son's Switch but he never touches it so I adopted it), having to pack up everything and move the good stuff over to my Switch's island was a huge task! His island was nowhere near full at all and it was still a huge task. I may redo my main island, I love it but it's become static....
So as of recently I was starting to soft reset my island before realizing something that makes doing so alot easier Using the second player in co-op get a shovel and dig up your flowers all the flowers will then be sent to the resident services recycling box which you can then pick up later. Another thing I found out is that you can use the Clean up request using the island construction app and it will pick up trees and fences much easier (Reminder it only picks up trees and fences around you in like a 2x2 radius ish area) This was a pain to type out but I hope it becomes useful for anyone planning to soft reset their island In the future.
I'm late for this video but I'll tell you I feel stomped with the 30% of my island undeveloped, I'm not going to restart my island, I just love watching your vids. Your character makes me smile. Thank you. 💕
I honestly thought of restart my island so many times but i felt too lazy to go through all the process that is getting a house full paid, almost finish the museum and just collecting things. And i came around with the same ideas as you, but the problem is that i feel like blocked mentally on what to do
Now that I've finished catching all the fish, I'm debating on wether or not I want to completely flatten my island and see what areas I can terraform and where I can put houses, shops, etc.
Please any help on how to get your terraforming to flow and be cohesive would be WONDERFUL. All my terraforming ends up being little nice looking vignettes but it doesn't look good or flow smoothly into the next area like it like it to. Please help!
Im over 700 hour and i have done different things but its so hard to move things and build new bridges because i dont time skip lol makes it so hard but you always inspiring me :3 btw i use your dream address so cool to see everything up close amazing i love it 💜
The issue with my island is it’s so overgrown removing most of the floral life for the cottage core redesign I want will be a nightmare Not to mention all the junk that just sits there, menacingly
Really stuck on like what actually do for my feet because my theme was going to be cute wood themed but now I’ve changed my idea and I wanna go for like a Marvel avengers theme
Mia Castonguay I wish I was both this smart and this good at drawing things. All of my drawn maps are messes only I can read and it’s only half the time 😂😂
@@laurenplays7564 lol. I though since everything is like 1 square space, a grid notebook was perfect. I use different marker color of what is what. Thats how i did my housing. But some part of my island didnt fit the bill. So i just went ground zero, put all my flowers and bush togethet and start my grid drawing lol. Lots of process but ease my mind xD
@@MichaelaBelle yeah. If you want to make a place for like the resident or a coffee shop spot it helps to set up the layout of fences, put a bridge, plants and trees
I’m horrible at redesigning :( I just started clearing a lot of stuff and flattening and now me sad cuz I want Japan island but items are hard to find :((
I named my island Madagascar because I like the movies and it’s just a cool name but I though of a name called Withervane so know I wanted to know if I could change my island name
So do I, it just proves that most people aren't creative and can't come up with any of their own ideas. It's ok to be inspired by other people's builds, but 99% of the people out there now are just copying the same exact themes because it's all they know.
I love your videos, I'm still terrible at terraforming but I keep trying your tips. My island has no real theme but I hope you like it 😊 DA-8557-1299-7798
This was really helpfull. Ive been kinda burned out with AC and considered restarting but these tips are way better for a soft restart.
Oh good!! I’m so glad it’s helpful hah. I love the game but do find it’s easy to get burned out but the designing is definitely what keeps me coming back
damn i'm really gonna waste another 200+ hours of my life redesigning my island huh
WELOME TO THE CLUBBBB

Me...
THOSE PATHS AT THE START WERE A WHOLE MOOD

Fairytail’s “Whoa” sound is just too perfect.

For a sec I though you were actually restarting until I actually read the title.
Kirby with a knife I just got a very cute villager I could never (but actually maybe who knows)

"How to know you're basic in 3 easy steps" lol
i could never redo an entire section of my island
too much work
Just throw the whole game away
I can’t either but I’m making a giant mario kart track around my island
Taunting me with a fall theme AGAIN right in the middle of me doing a tropical theme. I really think I’m gonna take the plunge
You can also do both!

I'm so proud of my island being made on release day (March 20th 2020) that I never wanna restart it 😭
When Lauren post I go straight away🏃🏽
😭😭😭😭 IT IS APPRECIATED
Ahhh I got hearted
0:45 With the new update, I recommend storing your little ‘areas’ in a shed. You can buy them with nook miles.
“I don’t even know who you are, follow your heart”, this is my life motto. How have I never seen your videos before? 😂

Ooo yes!!!! Will definitely be using these tips. There are parts of my island that are unfinished or just a disaster😂. Thank you!!
😍😍🥰🥰
I love your content and I think you’re hilarious! Looking forward to watching you transform your island :)

I flattend my island for the first time ever, and I like to watch people do it bc I don’t have online and it makes me feel less lonley

Thank you! I saw my hand going to the delete software button... but this changed my mind!
You are so clever!!!! I destroy all my island and make it grass, it was so tedious work!!!
But well, LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!!!!😍😍😍
Defiantly would love my island to be toured! Only after I’m done destroying 😂
Destroying is 80% of my life

(Also, you could make a second islander and sugar daddy their loans to store all ur junk in their house 🤫)
Your island is so cute!

I named my island Madagascar because I like the movies and it’s just a cool name but I though of a name called Withervane so know I wanted to know if I could change my island name
You can't change your island name, you have to erase your game file and start over.
what was Raymond doing back there 😳😳
It hurts me to see island restarts 😭
Aight I am 300 hours in and I’m JUST STARTING MY ISLAND
So uh
Why
SAME ITS SO OVERWHELMING
Im almost 800 hours in.. Im still not even halfway done
OMG MY COMMENT MADE THE VIDEO! 😱😱😂
Jokes on you, I’m an artist, I already have carpal tunnel 🥲🥲
I don’t know whether I wanna restart because I have spent real money on the game
i want to do this but i want to change my island name and my character name :(
I’m lost. Where are the links to the custom paths? Now that you got me motivated. Haha.
Omfg sorry HAHHH I took forever editing this and was just like “it’s up goodbye” but they have been added!!

Do homework or spend 200+ hours working on my island? *inhales air* let's do my island! :>
Running out of “rum” is the worst part.... gotta stock up at the shop again....

Give me about 200 hours and I’ll be back lol😹
I hate the way “themes” have taken over.
So do I, it just proves that most people aren't creative and can't come up with any of their own ideas. It's ok to be inspired by other people's builds, but 99% of the people out there now are just copying the same exact themes because it's all they know.
