6 Most Frustrating Things About Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp

Annoying? Irritating? Frustrating at times? But do I love it just the same? Yes, yes, of course.

I've been obsessed with Animal Crossing since I had a D.S. when I was younger. I even played it on the Wii and now it's an app for phones. Not gonna lie, I play this game every day and I'm borderline addicted to it.

Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp is different than the games I used to play for D.S. and Wii, but the heart of the game remains the same: being friends with all the animals and getting as many friends and visitors as you can. For those who haven't played and are interested, it's a fairly laid back game where you can pretty much do whatever you want, but for Pocket Camp in particular, there are timed and stretched goals that give you a bit of an objective. As much as I love this game, there are still some thing that frustrate me that happen while playing the game and interacting with the characters. Here's a few.


1. Difficulty

It's so easy to level-up in this game. In one sitting, I can level up five times and the difficulty level remains the same. I haven't been playing long and I'm already level 22. All I ever do is catch bugs, shake trees for fruit, and use nets to catch weird looking fish. Uhh... someone explain.

2. Friends

This game pushes you to add friends, but the only thing you can do once you have them is give kudos to their campsites. On old Animal Crossing games, your player used to be able to converse with animals and people, selecting your choice of response, but now you don't even speak to anyone of the characters you go up to. I guess I live in silence.

3. Animals' Requests

All there is to do on this game is to pick fruit, fish, and catch bugs for the animals. At least they give rewards in return. Also, I'm not your fan. I did this to get more leaf tickets.

4. Crafting Furniture

It's ridiculous how the only way animals will come visit your campsite is if you craft the furniture that they like the most. I'm sorry... I thought it was my campsite last time I checked. Who said I had to craft it just for you?

5. Tents

You always craft amenities in this game, but you can never go in them. Don't fret though - your animals can. It only costs you thousands of bell coins.

6. Max Friend Level

One of the last most ridiculous things about this game is the fact that you can reach a maximum friendship level with someone where you literally stop reaching higher levels of friendship. For example, on my game, I'm level 7 with Apollo, and every time I do requests for him, it just remains the same. Last time I checked relationships were meant to grow?

Play Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp and suffer with the rest of us!

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
