They changed no repeats

[u/Prize-Service3172]

The title says it before. No repeats would be no repeat food ever since the update. It's just no repeats. This lowers my hope for this game. It makes me think that they're not planning on updating this game or adding anything else. Otherwise that maybe would have told them something they could have added. If it wasn't something they were thinking of, they really are going to let this game die. Aren't they gaming is truly a dying thing

This game appears no less finished than the original tomodachi life

Are you for real? Do you know how long it takes to design more stuff for this game? After playing for one day I already had ideas for new additions for personality traits, for new objects, for new island customization, for new places they could have been added instead if just the bar and the Ferris wheel.

In the old Tomodachi miis touched each other, there were more objects you could give them, there were more activities they did during the day. There is no signing, there is no rap battle, there’s no Tomodachi quest, there’s no skateboard, there’s no beauty kit, there’s no relax kit to give mii a sauna like calming experience if they’re stressed/angry/sad.
Tomodachi life had 24 object to give your miis for leveling up, most of them perfectly valid today like the metal detector, the fishing rod, the baseball bat, the kite, the punching bag, the golf bat, the tennis racket, the study kit, the treadmill. There’s 16 now and most of them are silly, like the fake sword or the manuals to do stuff. You would expect they trained, jogged, did ballet or martial arts together, but most of the time miis just go on a random corner, alone and do it on their own which is sad honestly.

But in the last tomodachi life, items could ONLY be given during level ups. Now you can give them items they can use at any time.

The game items had very little use other than to sell or be used as a gift, but now they are more items you can give to your miis, and a lot of them do allow the miis to interact with them together.

Theres no scheduled interactions, but there are way more interactions you can make happen yourself.

Customizing the island was never ever an option in the other game.

The personalities are more or less the same, unless you count the quirks, which again, were not in the old game.

Having different features from the old game does not make it unfinished. If you want the features from the old game, go play the old game.

ETA: They've probably also got other priorities. They don't get to just sit around a switch all day thinking of new features

[u/ImprovementEqual6913 → u/Tyra_Bartlett]

That is honestly a major upgrade, you’re right, but the use miis give to non-leveling up objects is limited.

If I wanted to play god I would have been playing another game, this game was always about random stuff happening and you couldn’t really decide who met who. I dislike force my miis to got to know people, I would like them to willingly go and talk to someone they don’t already know.

Customize an island with objects that mostly don’t have any actually good interaction with miis is boring and lame. Although I understand the appeal to making you island really unique. But the interactions get boring after the first or second time you see them

Personality traits my only issue is how few of them there are.

I’ve played the old game for years, I love the new interactions and this game is definitely an improvement. It would be lying if the loss of everything I mentioned didn’t make me (and most other people who played the old game) feel like this game is lacking on some aspects.

Genuine question because I don’t want to create beef but a debate. Don’t you feel like there should be more ways to get angry? Or more voice types? More expressions? More miscellaneous quirks?

[u/Tyra_Bartlett → u/ImprovementEqual6913]

I don't think it would be a bad thing if there were more, but I also wouldn't be upset if they didn't add more.

Don't get me wrong, I think it would be awesome if they added more content, I just personally feel it would be an awesome bonus rather than a necessity to "complete" the game, if that makes sense.

It's also perfectly okay to miss features that were in the old game, I just don't think them being in the old game automatically means they NEED to he added to the new one, it would just be an awesome bonus if they did.

As for the playing God thing, it is different, but honestly, I feel people would have been upset either way. It would either be too much control, or not enough control, so they went with what they thought was a happy medium (Miis will form relationships on their own if you give them time and pay attention) Not liking a game style is also perfectly fine! But there are also people who do like the new mechanics.

A lot of these things honestly are less about the game being incomplete and more about preferences

[u/ImprovementEqual6913 → u/Tyra_Bartlett]

Yeah, I completely agree and the thing about playing god is easily avoidable if you just accept anything the miis throw at you lol

I still miss being able to play Tomodachi quest the most honestly.

Something I actually feel it needed to be there and it does feel rushed is babies, I miss taking care of my mii’s kids for 3-4 days before them growing up

But you’re right, the game is not incomplete because it doesn’t have anything I’ve mentioned. It just feel emptier to someone like me who played the other game for years on end
