I feel like this is what Animal Crossing is all about. Spending 50 hours to make something, and then realizing you want something else. But you don't get frustrated by it, you just enjoy the work.
No one: Austin’s John: and like uhh this is, this is amazing, this is so beautiful, I love this Two days later* Austin jon: yea so I don’t really like this at all was thinking I’d just do the exact opposite of what I did originally
Jay Z he said at the beginning he didn’t like the style of his island and wanted it to be more city-like he isn’t necessarily doing this just for the videos
Next time it's gonna be a full jungle with tree houses, using terraforming to elevate the houses on perfectly sized second level land so it seems they are sitting on the trees with natural ramps leading up to them. ... That actually sounds kinda awesome.
To be honest, I was kind of excited to hear he wants to start another big project. Like, yeah, I really liked the last layout, but this feels like another little adventure of designing we all get to experience with him. I think that’s pretty cool
Austin: I’m making everything all overgrown and natural!! Me: that’s a great idea and inspires me to redo my town because I hate mine and I love forests!! 🌲🌳🍀🍂🌱🌼🌴 Austin: jk I want a city now!! Me: 😑
Day #3 Of Quarantine affecting Austin... Austin: "Screw residential services, I am the island, the island is me, I am Poseidon to the ocean that is this island." Austin??? Also Austin: "And Nook's Cranny, I really want to be Nook's Cranny."
I don't get it, almost everytime you change something you say "oh I like it", now you want destroy everything again 😁 I'm not complaining, more ac episodes for us, but I just don't get it.
Honestly, I do the same thing as him. For me I do it for a lot of reasons! Things like getting tired of the old layout/decorations, noticing little flaws or mistakes or inconveniences over time, or just having a new idea and wanting to try it!
It's something I've been doing with my island as well, I'll create something that looks nice, but in the end it isn't exactly what I want or have the feel/concept I was going for. It's a vicious cycle but honestly I find the constant experimentation super fun. Sometimes you gotta have multiple do-overs to settle on something you're proud of and can see as a permanent environment in the long run.
am i the only one who literally checks their phone every hour to see if he uploaded. He's literally the highlight of my day. This series makes me so happy. I keep rewatching the episodes because i just love them
You make me feel so much better about my island and playstyle. Many people seem to be working to some final certain plan but you are still changing and growing. You have an idea, you put in the work, its fantastic but then you are not afraid to keep going and try more ideas. You don't get discouraged when something doesn't turn out how you thought, you just try something new. Its very inspiring .
I just love when you seem truly excited about a project!! So nice to watch and it makes me feel more motivated to do stuff to my own island because I’ve just been getting overwhelmed by the prospect of it all recently. Really looking forward to more videos in this format!!!
I like that its on alot of peoples minds to change their town over time. Not just a one-time build but something to add and tweak overtime. I want a town area, a forest, beach and finally an orchard and flower field! A little bit of everything!! ☆☆
I’m super proud of my entrance. Built it up to a second level with picnic areas and rare flowers/items on both sides from the airport to the resident services. It’s very closed off an claustrophobic until it opens up to shops and a diner.
Austin really inspired how I build my island. Not the exact look, but to build the environment for my neighbours, try to make them happy about where they live, including the npcs. I love that.
Austin: I don't like my island Me: looks at his amazing 5 stars island Also me: looks at my wip an really Less amazing 2 Floor I really like my island!
Austin I did a similar approach for my town entrance except I created a river that runs past the airport & then staggered little patches of land throughout the river to the other side to allow players to hop to the other side. I also used nova stars to stagger between the patches of land, and added hybrid flowers to each patch of land that the players hop on. It really blended everything in & I love those dang nova stars 😂
That island entrance is amazing, especially how it shows from the plane, even if you've only set the foundations! I feel the entrance is the most important part, because it's the area everyone is guaranteed to see no matter what! I love the Nook's Cranny area, I wish Tom Nook offered island expansions because everything feels so cramped on mine, but I think uprooting some things to give mine some space to breathe might be a good idea, ty for the inspiration :)
I thought I would hate not having daily episodes, but I honestly enjoyed this! I have other comfort channels, so I’m not relying on this series as much as I was in the beginning. Now, knowing that in the next episode I will see a new, finished product on the island, i’m actually really excited!
This video in particular made me so happy and motivated to play AC and fix my island. Your videos give me a break from the reality that we're in these days. And to that I wanna say, thank you.
Yay! I’m glad you’re going back to your old format sort of. I was never a fan of the “overgrown look” but I was still following along cause I was curious. The new Nook’s Cranny looks fantastic very nice. Excited to see the rest of the island being updated 👍🏻
My entire island is in a huge symmetrical pattern with every tree and incline in just the right place. Literally the only thing I want from updates is to move my resident services 2 blocks left and 2 blocks up
a small tip: you can skip having to remove most half-cliffs and water banks by using the permit on the space next to them. it will turn into a half-cliff and the space that used to be half-cliff will collapse altogether, so you only need to get rid of like two blocks with halves. though this doesn't work when access to the next space is blocked, for example when digging though a cliff in straight line
austin: im gonna change everything! everyone: okay, epic! austin: *changes everything* everyone: we love it! austin: i hate it and i'm changing everything everyone: *sigh* we love you austin, i'm gonna be here throughout all the changes your island goes under p.s. you make the greatest animal crossing content on youtube
At first I was really jealous that you are soo far in this game and have all these different kind of furniture and collectable items since so many people send them to you. But you already mentioned that you're enjoying it to start a brand new Island on your other switch... so now I'm actually glad that I have to collect all the Items by myself and have to safe my money for them. I believe because of this I can enjoy my game for much longer
Hey Austin I am having a headache so I went to see how to feel better so it said something cold and I feel a little better! Edit: I went to a website not a doctor lol
Honestly once you get to a certain point in the game, making big like this all the time is a really good way to keep everything interesting. Otherwise it's just constant daily chores
The "Christmasy" tree you got is an early Autumn craft - it's part of a set that uses the acorns and pinecones your trees drop! The Southern Hemisphere players just got this for March/April and we've now moved on to mushrooms :)
I created a small "glamping" basically put the tiles around the campsite. have some fencing around it. Make it modern. For those who want to camp, but actually dont really want to camp. As a natural campsite doesnt suit my town either. Picking the right fences, some shrubbery, trees, flowers and the right tiles added to that can give a real warm feeling to your town. my town looks best when the sun is about to set. as it has an orange glow all over my town. due to the color pallete I picked.
Wow, just when you think he's happy he changes it once again. Still, this is an amazing start on this new theme, good luck making this the best you can Austin, I'll be rooting for you.
When he said “We need to talk” I thought he was going to end the series
Galactic MoonS lol 😂
sammmmeeeeeee *scared*
Galactic MoonS I know this is a joke but if he continues the series for let’s say... another 3 years, then things would get boring REALLY fast.
The heart attack we all had at that moment
ye me too
I feel like this is what Animal Crossing is all about. Spending 50 hours to make something, and then realizing you want something else. But you don't get frustrated by it, you just enjoy the work.
Austin: **Completely changes his island**
Austin: I don’t like it.
Everyone: B R U H
I am genuinely going to miss the overgrown area.
I dont have the time or patience to do that
3rd time
He just does this for us so he can keep making content and changing things up. If he didn’t then what else would he be doing in the videos?
Ya... 100% accurate
No one:
Austin’s John: and like uhh this is, this is amazing, this is so beautiful, I love this
Two days later*
Austin jon: yea so I don’t really like this at all was thinking I’d just do the exact opposite of what I did originally
Jay Z ye
Just give it another 3 weeks, I guarantee he’ll redo his island again, trust me.
He just does this for us so he can keep making content and changing things up. If he didn’t then what else would he be doing in the videos?
Jay Z I’m guessing you copied an pasted the same line you made
Julian Wiggins I did. It’s not an attack it’s just an explanation to anyone who mentions it!
Jay Z no one said it was an attack.
No hate on Jay Z
Take a shot everytime Austin says “Micro-environment”
Take a shot every time he says and then
brb alcohol poisoning
Me: I wish my island looked like Austin’s, it looks sooo good
Austin: Listen guys we need to change everything....
He just does this for us so he can keep making content and changing things up. If he didn’t then what else would he be doing in the videos?
Jay Z he could talk about more things about the game
Yo you the real Skeletor?
Jay Z he said at the beginning he didn’t like the style of his island and wanted it to be more city-like he isn’t necessarily doing this just for the videos
@@jayz6706 I think he's also really creative and picky and wants things to be the coolest in his mind and for his gameplay
Austin 3 weeks ago: It's too bright, I want it more moody
Austin Now: I want it more warm and inviting
Everyone watching: REALLY!!!
Austin: I want to have everything with life
Also Austin: Scratch that I WANT A CITY
Next time it's gonna be a full jungle with tree houses, using terraforming to elevate the houses on perfectly sized second level land so it seems they are sitting on the trees with natural ramps leading up to them.
... That actually sounds kinda awesome.
He just does this for us so he can keep making content and changing things up. If he didn’t then what else would he be doing in the videos?
@@Dusxio this is a great idea though???
@@Dusxio wow galaxy brain moment there. I love my island rn and yet? this idea is testing me 😂
New drinking game: take a shot everytime Austin says "Golly"
And "This is a game changer"
as soon as i looked at this comment he said "golly" twice, i might be faded by the time the video finishes
Add, “Quick little update”.🤣🥂
r/beatmetoit
I'm game
*Austin reformats his island*
Fans: wow this is good
Austin: OKAY LETS DO IT AGAIN!
Fans: wait what!
Alternate title: “I Reseted My Reseted Island”
To be honest, I was kind of excited to hear he wants to start another big project. Like, yeah, I really liked the last layout, but this feels like another little adventure of designing we all get to experience with him. I think that’s pretty cool
Austin saying “golly” so genuinely is probably the most wholesome thing ever and I love it
Feeding the yt algorithm everyday till my island looks as good as Austin's
Shadow Lucario if you have a switch you should make a YT series
Put an hdmi cord on your pc, put the hdmi cord into the dock. Mirror the switch to the pc the same way you would to a tv. Record with obs
Whiteout you suck pp, rekt
@@susslewussle7074 what about switch lites
Austin: I’m making everything all overgrown and natural!!
Me: that’s a great idea and inspires me to redo my town because I hate mine and I love forests!! 🌲🌳🍀🍂🌱🌼🌴
Austin: jk I want a city now!!
Me: 😑
Day #3 Of Quarantine affecting Austin...
Austin: "Screw residential services, I am the island, the island is me, I am Poseidon to the ocean that is this island."
Austin???
Also Austin: "And Nook's Cranny, I really want to be Nook's Cranny."
Austin's pure joy and happiness with Lucky makes me so happy, he just loves him that much.
“Good morning butter pup” is what I need every day👌
If you attack a “half cliff” parallel to the angle of the half cliff it takes out two cliff units, which is way faster
Me reads “new island format” a sh*t here we go again
Austin: *almost done with island*
Also Austin: "I hate it I'm changing everything"
Us: :/
me: models my island around austin johns island
austin john plays: changes his whole island again
me: :0
The struggle is real
BlueDot because he’s had really awesome ideas for island designs and decorating
but honestly that entry way!!
BlueDot cuz I can lol he’s a gif utuber
megodynamite his ideas all come from reddit go there instead
I think constantly changing your island is part of the fun! I couldn't stand looking at the same island every day for weeks
Austin: “oh daisy mays here”. Me: she’s here every sunday
DANG IT I MISSED IT AGAIN.AGHHHH
@@Its_SaberHG I also missed it yesterday
I spelled Mae wrong lol
So fix it,you can hit the 3 be dots bottom right of your comment and edit it
For the last 3 Sundays daisy mae never appeared. Ive missed so much turnip equivalent exchange stock markets that I'm going INSANE!
This is me during quarantine. *Rearranges room* “Hate it.”, *rearranges room again*, “Nope. Moving it again.”
Austin: We have to have a talk. Me: ooh what's up?
When Austin says "Golly" 7 years get added to my life.
U ded yet?
Jinsei its added
Austin whenever he gets the chance: "fORMAT"
One thing Austin I have in common: we both keep on changing our island because we hate it
Brandon G I noticed your pic is sherb I have him if you ever want to visit
I don't get it, almost everytime you change something you say "oh I like it", now you want destroy everything again 😁
I'm not complaining, more ac episodes for us, but I just don't get it.

Jay Z u have that copy and pasted don’t u. He didn’t like his island. He wanted to redo it with all his cash
when you see other inspiration, you get inspired to do differently. Also when your island stays stagnant... you kinda get over it....
"I am Poseidon to the ocean that is this island." Beautiful. Just beautiful.
We need some “Golly” merch.
With a big "UH" somewhere on it.
UH
Me: loving the forest look in the front
Austin: I wanna Change Everything
"And knowing my luck, the first few trees I hit, I'm gonna find my wasps."
Immediately gets wasps
I laughed SO HARD - thankfully almost as hard as Austin John himself!!
He is inevitable
am i the only one who literally checks their phone every hour to see if he uploaded. He's literally the highlight of my day. This series makes me so happy. I keep rewatching the episodes because i just love them
Austin saying "golly" unironically is my favorite thing ever. he must be protected at all costs
You make me feel so much better about my island and playstyle. Many people seem to be working to some final certain plan but you are still changing and growing. You have an idea, you put in the work, its fantastic but then you are not afraid to keep going and try more ideas. You don't get discouraged when something doesn't turn out how you thought, you just try something new. Its very inspiring .
the timing of the wasps was absolutely hilarious omfg
This is a cool style of video, I like being able to see the finished result right away. Keep em coming please!
Nobody:
AustinJohn: WaspSSSzsZsSzZsSZSz
10:10 Austin: Also its gonna stop raining in two minutes
Paula: *takes hood down*
After watching him build it, it hurt seeing him remove the market
he had to do it, he said it was lagging his frame rate.
Austin: “hey guys I’m resetting my island, but AGAIN”
"Identity theft is not a joke Jim."
"I heart you too Austin ❤️"

Millions of families suffer every year
Jim Halpert - "Michael!"

OMG.. YES! to the WestWorld reference! “Doesn’t look like anything to me” *in Dolores Southern accent*
Austin: "We need to talk..."
Me: "I'm sorry, I can't talk right now. I'm busy watching the greatest AC content known to man."
I just love when you seem truly excited about a project!! So nice to watch and it makes me feel more motivated to do stuff to my own island because I’ve just been getting overwhelmed by the prospect of it all recently. Really looking forward to more videos in this format!!!
You finally uploaded 😀 missed you over the weekend, I’m glad you’re back!
he uploaded a few more videos. You should wat h those
He’s gonna be doing that from now on. Less videos with more going on in each one.
“I am this island”
Screw you resident services
I wonder how many times Austin said “golly” in this video
I came to the comments to check if someone noticed hahaha
I like that its on alot of peoples minds to change their town over time. Not just a one-time build but something to add and tweak overtime. I want a town area, a forest, beach and finally an orchard and flower field! A little bit of everything!! ☆☆
Me: holy smokes this island got better every episode I want something similar
Austin John:I Don't Like IT
It’s so sweet the way Austin talks to lucky. It’s like he thinks of him as a son.
Me: Running out of ideas for my island
Austin John: posts
Me: *time to steal more from my inspiration*
you should have said
"hipoty hopity this idea is my property"
I’m super proud of my entrance. Built it up to a second level with picnic areas and rare flowers/items on both sides from the airport to the resident services. It’s very closed off an claustrophobic until it opens up to shops and a diner.
austin john: "we need to talk"
me who clearly knows he cant hear me: "ok lay it on me"
i wish someone would make a well-edited compilation of every time austin goes "uh"
Austin: Golly I hate Pears
Me with my island called pear island: Cries Quietly to self
Wow sorry that must have hurt
hella funny that mines called “pear isle”😂 why doesn’t the game let you change it 😕
I based my whole island off the overgrown feel, and i’m so grateful. May not have been for you but certainly was for me!
Austin: I like a more natural and some areas that are built up and structured. Also Austin: I don’t like any of it
This is my favorite channel because i feel so much better about changing up my island and trying new things even if i already had a different vision
Me: Wow I really wish I could make my island as nice as Austin's
Austin: Guys this is CRAP
Austin really inspired how I build my island. Not the exact look, but to build the environment for my neighbours, try to make them happy about where they live, including the npcs. I love that.
Austin: I don't like my island
Me: looks at his amazing 5 stars island
Also me: looks at my wip an really Less amazing 2 Floor
I really like my island!
Austin I did a similar approach for my town entrance except I created a river that runs past the airport & then staggered little patches of land throughout the river to the other side to allow players to hop to the other side. I also used nova stars to stagger between the patches of land, and added hybrid flowers to each patch of land that the players hop on. It really blended everything in & I love those dang nova stars 😂

IKR
That island entrance is amazing, especially how it shows from the plane, even if you've only set the foundations! I feel the entrance is the most important part, because it's the area everyone is guaranteed to see no matter what!
I love the Nook's Cranny area, I wish Tom Nook offered island expansions because everything feels so cramped on mine, but I think uprooting some things to give mine some space to breathe might be a good idea, ty for the inspiration :)
A “Playsholder”
Why, Austin.
I love when Austin admires what his villagers are doing on their own time. It's adorable and makes me smile :)
“I am the Poseidon of the ocean which is this island”
I AM THE LAW! ISABELLE, I AM DECLARING WAR ON SEA BASS!”
“I understood that reference”
I thought I would hate not having daily episodes, but I honestly enjoyed this! I have other comfort channels, so I’m not relying on this series as much as I was in the beginning. Now, knowing that in the next episode I will see a new, finished product on the island, i’m actually really excited!
My take on the full tongue twister: An annoyed void owed alloys to alley dwelling gyroids. Give it a try!
This video in particular made me so happy and motivated to play AC and fix my island. Your videos give me a break from the reality that we're in these days. And to that I wanna say, thank you.
I’ve been waiting for this. And finally... YAY
Yay! I’m glad you’re going back to your old format sort of. I was never a fan of the “overgrown look” but I was still following along cause I was curious. The new Nook’s Cranny looks fantastic very nice. Excited to see the rest of the island being updated 👍🏻
My entire island is in a huge symmetrical pattern with every tree and incline in just the right place. Literally the only thing I want from updates is to move my resident services 2 blocks left and 2 blocks up
Austin puts on a dad voice whenever he talks to/about Lucky, and it is the most wholesome content of this whole series
I like how he just casually mentions a second Nintendo switch while I'm waiting to save up enough money to get one for me and my brother.
You're a good brother 🙂
meanwhile my dad and i just got my mom a switch lite and we only have one copy of acnh still
a small tip: you can skip having to remove most half-cliffs and water banks by using the permit on the space next to them. it will turn into a half-cliff and the space that used to be half-cliff will collapse altogether, so you only need to get rid of like two blocks with halves. though this doesn't work when access to the next space is blocked, for example when digging though a cliff in straight line
Take a shot every time Austin says “golly”. Love youuu glad you posted 😌👑
as much as I was mourning the gorgeous natural look, the new entryway looks awesome!!
austin: im gonna change everything!
everyone: okay, epic!
austin: *changes everything*
everyone: we love it!
austin: i hate it and i'm changing everything
everyone: *sigh*
we love you austin, i'm gonna be here throughout all the changes your island goes under
p.s. you make the greatest animal crossing content on youtube
At first I was really jealous that you are soo far in this game and have all these different kind of furniture and collectable items since so many people send them to you. But you already mentioned that you're enjoying it to start a brand new Island on your other switch... so now I'm actually glad that I have to collect all the Items by myself and have to safe my money for them. I believe because of this I can enjoy my game for much longer
Hey Austin I am having a headache so I went to see how to feel better so it said something cold and I feel a little better!
Edit: I went to a website not a doctor lol
I just love the thought of Timmy and tommy playing in the playground after a long day of being precious
When he said “I am this island” I was really hoping he’d say “ I am inevitable”
Lucky with the sign and then running like an airplane was just too cute! It definitely made my day! 😆
Austin: Spends about a Month changing his already 5-Star island and he says he hates it.
Me:What is the purpose then?
Rowan Grant see “The Myth of Sisyphus”
Honestly once you get to a certain point in the game, making big like this all the time is a really good way to keep everything interesting. Otherwise it's just constant daily chores
Yeah it doesn't really have a purpose. You used the wrong then btw
You talking about formatting your island is like Bob Ross talking about painting. You make it so interesting and I don’t understand how 😂
The amount of times Austin said “golly”😂
The "Christmasy" tree you got is an early Autumn craft - it's part of a set that uses the acorns and pinecones your trees drop! The Southern Hemisphere players just got this for March/April and we've now moved on to mushrooms :)
literally just finished playing after 6 hours and watching this made me play again whoops
I created a small "glamping" basically put the tiles around the campsite. have some fencing around it. Make it modern. For those who want to camp, but actually dont really want to camp. As a natural campsite doesnt suit my town either. Picking the right fences, some shrubbery, trees, flowers and the right tiles added to that can give a real warm feeling to your town. my town looks best when the sun is about to set. as it has an orange glow all over my town. due to the color pallete I picked.
Alternative title: I reset my island once again
You make me feel so much better about my re-re-re-re-re-design neurosis! Glad to know I'm not alone! Keep on keepin' on!
Everyone: watches video
Me: notices the word "new" in the title of the video is not capitalized
Austin you make my day I am obsessed with your videos on animal crossing
I’m 4 minutes late how rude of me.
I’m 3 hours late!!!!!!
I’m 4 hours late but that is just how I watch videos
xD
Wooloo with a knife Im 6
I’m 6.5 hours late soooo
Wow, just when you think he's happy he changes it once again. Still, this is an amazing start on this new theme, good luck making this the best you can Austin, I'll be rooting for you.
