Ya, my friends tell me their personal Animal Crossing stories and they are really side-splittingly funny. The villagers do have certain stock phrases and interactions but each person has their own personal experiences with some. I forgot to put in that Pippy once made four villagers cry in a row, back to back!
I feel like everyone has the same shared experience playing so they can relate or they can be like, "I didn't feel like that at all and it was like this for me. I almost did a zine about food but I was like, "it seems like more of a job than a hobby the more I work on this" where Animal Crossing is more of a fun hobby.
