"Animal Crossing: New Horizons" has been a quarantine hit, and many have praised its addictive, calming qualities.
Inside his house, one room was decked out like a club, and we ran around in circles and wiggled back and forth pretending to dance. Andy and I are both roughly 30 years old, but for a few minutes, I felt as happy as my small baby-proportioned avatar looked. After a reasonable amount of casual play, here's what I'm left with: Animal Crossing New Horizons sucks, and I don't want to play it anymore. This is not a personal attack. I know and respect many people who love this stupid baby game. My friend Alexa described it as less a game than a "dopamine generator." If it makes you feel that way, please, do not let me spoil your soma.
Consider Stardew Valley, another resource-management type game with an intricate internal economy and wealth of customization options. Stardew's sheer cosmetic variety is more fun, if slightly more limiting, than Animal Crossing. But what sets it apart is the compelling story and narrative at the heart of the game.

Fuck I clicked before thinking 'Why would they write something so obviously unpopular?.. wait, it worked well damm''
watch tom nook break your bitchass kneecaps 😻❤️
That face when you bash other people’s fun because you don’t enjoy it.
GUYS OH GOD OH F*UCK SHADOW THE HEDGEHOG IS ABOUT TO BECOME TOO COOL
You forgot one: the characters in this stupid game are so UGLY
Not wrong
Sorry you got a business degree and the economy collapsed.
Jo
Everyone attacks the person who wrote this piece because he was critical of their beloved animal crossing, it's pathetic. Try and refute his claims, ohh no we can't open those can of worms up though can we, or else we might find most of what he says is true!
contreverse hunting I see.
So you perfer people play aggressive violent game instead?
Contrarianism
News is kinda slow these times, Business Insider? So that makes you horny for clicks?
It’s time to admit that your opinion is very wrong.
How dare people have a different opinion
bro u literally have a pedo stache. be humble
says the company that no one who works there has played it
Ah yes, Tom Nook's 'time-share scheme', because we all know time-share scammers always stick around and help you build the place they sold you into a fucking glorious land with celebrities and tourist attracting business all over. Gaining both of you millions of bells.
You're obviously clueless. We vote you off all the islands.
this is just an article about someone not liking the kind of game. just because some people dont like it it doesnt mean its a bad game.
ok
Let people enjoy things.
I have ONE TO MANY questions about this article. How long did the author even spend on the game? He says “some hours” but how many? 10? 50? Hell, 100? Because on the first day, yes it can be boring, but after that, there are things you can do after that singular first day! (1)
Then don't play it.
Modern Journalism in a nutshell
Desperate times Desperate measures
Ok you have angered Twitter cancelled
I don’t now if you loose all your turnip of the last week but please let people have pleasure and go play fortnite
Maybe you're just bad at it, bro.
You guys rn
'The game doesn't play itself and I lack creativity'
time to admit that business insider is a shitty website that can only get clicks by hiring hacks that write hate bait slop
Said nobody ever.
'The entire setting of Animal Crossing is indentured servitude to an aggressive loan shark who appears to be selling a timeshare scam to the world's inhabitants. In AC, you start the game as a cog in the machine & there is no way to escape.' You doin okay, bro?
Sorry you don't like to relax and enjoy the small things in life
Who shit in your cornflakes this morning?
It's time to admit you're a useless outlet that's out of ideas.
Save the clicks lol it's just complaints about the interface (which okay, is fair) and how theres no story or depth to the game. Which is kinda... the whole point of the game.
Your series of articles on Animal Crossing really have me hooked.
It's also probably time for your writer to admit no one actually gives a shit about their opinion. Write about something useful.
Did you think that this would go well? Even if you're right it doesn't change the fact that you're going to get bombarded with hate
alendax
Homophobia
Although I’m an 18 year old, I love playing the game. It’s really calming and helps with my depression immensely, especially during these long quarantine days.
Lmao Nintendo is like:
Whoever wrote this is retarded beyond words...
margielasimpson So. . .ya burned yourself out on it, and now you wanna tell everyone else that its garbage. Valid points: the clunky UI. Not Valid Points: most of the rest of the article. Just move on to a different game.
This reads like an Onion article. Has to be satire, right?
Bad faith article. Don't click. Author isn't very engaging and can't figure out how to use a shovel.
“This is not a personal attack. I know and respect many people who love this stupid baby game.”
“I’m unhappy”
You should try it, it's fun and relaxing!
Whomever typed this out & posted it should say the same thing in front of a grade school class of 25, then prepare to be assaulted by Elmer's glue bottles🙄 getalife
Shut up boomer
it’s time to
Oh so that's how you wanna play?
Ok boomer
perish
Everyone's entitled to their own opinions, but its really helped my anxiety and depression alot, especially during these scary times. Who cares if its a children's game, it helps me and so many other people. Its one of the most calming games
no, but go off i guess

Yikes. Pretty unprofessional work, not sure how this made it to publishing. I don't subscribe to clickbait 'news,' so I will no longer be following .
imagine 🤢 shitting on people’s hobbies for views 🤮🤮
You did it! You finally ran out of meaningful news to report. Congratulations BI!
What's your option got to do with it? If adults play it? It's not hurting anyone. Go away back to your boring lives...
Boomers at it again
I read it and TLDR some jerk that said they don't want to make a personal attack and then calling this a 'stupid baby game' right after......
The bait is strong in this
Who gives a shit? Let people do what they want? Clickbait opinion trash.
Yet writing this pish about business day in day out must be fascinating? I find that ironic somehow...
stfu
not sure why people are so upset over this lol, it’s an opinion piece and it brings up some decent criticisms about ac
This is a boring click bait and not worth clicking on. Funny thing is I bet they go like “Violent games are the reason we have mass shootings” and yet when a we’ll received game comes out they say it’s game for children.
The stupidity is strong with this one
Oh I get why they are called Business Insider, it’s cause they got no BUSINESS doing video game reviews
We need clicks people CLICKS!!
'I know and respect many people who love this stupid baby game.' yeah... you look like you do
Me sitting here without a switch being like 'DevKit PSVita? Anyone?'
clarisajoyce
I'm trapped inside during a global pandemic and I've been sick from a massive blood clot for over a month. Animal Crossing has helped me so much during my recovery and stress from the global situation in general. Let people enjoy life.
SavedYouAClickV please cover this tweet
Ok go do your taxes to conform to society’s version of adult fun lmao
You lost a LOT of money on the Stalk Market, didn’t you? Just let others enjoy games they’re playing!
The entire world disagree, bitch.
Splish splash your opinion is trash
Look out, folks. Business Insider went edgelord.
Dang jack, who hurt you?
Yeah okay but if there’s a violent game that comes out it’s too mature for people to play
shut up omg
Wtf is this
It's time to admit other people are, in fact, allowed to enjoy something you don't.
It's time to admit that we all just want to grill for god's sake
These are the same boomers that play candy crush for thousands of hours. What a world we live in
the ratio on this. And now imagine if AC players were combative
It's hard to take a man with a '70s porn-stache seriously.
Who wrote your bio your mom?
It's time to admit you don't know what to write about because buisness news has been slow, so you're sadly and desperately trying clickbait to get views. How the mighty hath fallen. lol
'Game for children' My mom who mainly plays fighting and horror games and is 39 years old loves it My edgy 22 year old friend who loves shooter games fell in love with this game Even an old lady in her 80s loves it It's for everyone who just wants to chill Slow news day huh?
The author really didnt read the room on this one
Reported.
Okay boomer
Ok Boomer.
pee pee poo poo
Don't rage click this! They're just desperate for views
Oooof enjoy the ratio dude
I hope whoever wrote this rots in battery acid
Don't even play, but I have a LOT of friends that do.
ok lol
What a shit opinion piece. 🤷🏻♂️
Either you're hella late for April fools or business insider has gotten so pathetic it's sunken to farming hate clicks
Uhhhh... so don’t play it stupid. Next.
shut the hell up business insider
Is that why it's a good selling game? I hope this is a troll post, cause this is sad
Ok boomer
funny your caption says, 'what you need to know' but the article is about animal crossing sucking and not about the huge stick up your ass.
totally related to business
Aaannnnddd done
That’s cool nigga; but I don’t remember asking
oops! nice try! might want to get some new bait
That is not so business-mind of you to say
Delete this
There is such a thing as a wrong opinion
When you need something to write and decide on bashing a game people love.
I agree!! I bought it because of the hype and was so underwhelmed I got a refund. I don't understand what is so appealing about this.. I paid the same amount for that game as I did ZELDA BOTW and POKEMON SHIELD. BOTH games a MASSIVE step up from this 'stupid baby game'
Y’all really bored😔
Bait
so you really got a journalism degree to write this huh
Guys guys it's okay. It's just business insider.
L
Damn dude, who hurt you?
OP is a cuck - confirmed
You absolute c words
Nobody asked for your opinion.
Its time to admit ‘business insider’ is a dumb, boring company for boomers
FireJackCrosbie
who tf wrote this 💀💀💀💀
I mean, both my bf and I have had a lot of fun with it. I don't think it's as good as previous entries, but it's Animal Crossing and that's what we waited 8 years for. I'd say they did okay. Anyone who says otherwise probably just doesn't like AC. 🤷♀️
Who gonna tell him the rating
ah yes, business insider, my go-to source for gaming journalism
It’s time to admit that people that work at Business Insider are dumb, boring and hop on the ACNH train to get clicks on their site. Fuck off and let people have their fun.
I mean Nintendo fuckin sold out of Switches because of this game, but I guess millions of people know nothing compared to this dude right here.
It's time to admit whoever wrote this article doesn't know how to relax and have fun
Shut up
jscros 1. Don't play games you don't like. 2. Don't berate people for having fun. I have no interest in playing Animal Crossing because it looks boring to me. I also enjoy seeing how excited the people who do like it are about it.
1. Don't play games you don't like. 2. Don't berate people for having fun. I have no interest in playing Animal Crossing because it looks boring to me. I also enjoy seeing how excited the people who do like it are about it.
Big eye roll and just a ploy to get clicks.
Haha that moment when no one asked
No.
Not reading your shitty paper anymore if ur just gonna bait for views. Sage.
YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO HAVE PREFERENCES PEOPLE THIS IS WHAT THEY'RE TRYING TO TELL YOU PLEASE PAY ATTENTION, what they say is muy importanté
Welp, there goes a majority of the Nintendo Fanbase ever reason your articles again... :/ was it worth it?
If the only fun you're having is on your friends island, then you're playing it wrong
The Doom guy would like to kill you for hurting Isabelle’s feelings
Wow y’all went in on a Saturday too
this isnt business, business insider
Shut up you 'business insider' what kind of business is this huh
This sounds like you people just want attention.
what
Nobody liked that
May be time to find a new hobby dude. I hope this is an April fools joke. Thanks for making me feel better about my own writing though.
I think someone is a little hurt that they dont get to be a part of AC Twitter! 😂😂😂
My friend said it best. It's a game with no expectations. You can do whatever the f*ck you want when you want to. You're not pressured to do anything. LET PEOPLE LIKE WHAT THEY LIKE. Did we really need an article to explain that some people may not like the game?
strong disagree but i can admit you don't know what the fuck you're on about
It's time to admit 'Business Insider' is a dumb, boring site for Boomers
Keeping up with the old timers tradition I see?
A publication called 'Business Insider' probably shouldn't be projecting opinions about video games in general.
Bruh
I'm sorry... What?
It's time to admit that people have different tastes in games and this is one of the most popular single-platform games out there right now, if not the most
Unfollowed after this popped up on my Google news feed. What a gatekeeping asshole this guy is. Byeeeeee
This is clearly a for profit article made you to rile you up and make you read it
Hope Xi sees this dude.
We all know that you couldn’t beat Tom Nook
Is this satire? 😅
Shitty writers only write clickbait
u wanna shut up
You just want us to click don’t you squidward
Stop not liking the things I like - so hipster
Wrong
Wow you’re so quirky
Fuck you, let us have this one thing.
its time to admit that whoever wrote this article is a dumb, boring person who should go away.
Lots of hurt feelings here lmao
-calls it a baby game -talks the entire time like a 5 year old who couldn’t get McDonalds
Business Insider could not work out how to catch a butterfly!
I hope whoever wrote this article realize how sad they are one day
Harsh but fair
Yes and I love it
It’s time to admit that is a dumb, boring business site for boomers
I'm sure many people will take gaming advice from 'Business Insider'.
And your job is more exciting?
This has to be a headline just for clicks
i solemnly agree
how about 'it's time to admit that business insider is a pile of steaming garbage'?
Reminder that people get paid to get you to talk about this and click the article
You know when your tweet has less likes than the replies, you've screwed up.
Business Insider be like...
You're a dumb, boring game for children
So demeaning and harassing millions of people playing a game that they enjoy is your new past time? Grow up BI.
I love how he calls it an opinion piece, and yet uses that title to attack and label those who enjoy the game. Someone loves his clicks
Sorry sweetie but I can smell yo poop breath from here 🥺
dumb boring to YOU, but maybe not for the kids.
Well, sorry. It's not our nor Nintendo's fault that you're just bad at playing Animal Crossing.
And your article is a poorly written pissbag made by joyless as$hats ragging on something that popular because they think is an easy target and is heavily defensive over any blowback it gets.
Imagine getting paid to write trash like this smh

What does this have to do with business you headass
Here for the ratio
He actually does have some points about the interface though, I like this game but the game has somewhat clunky interfaces.
My friend doesn’t really enjoy it but he doesn’t try to shame me for liking it
No.
This is a business insider article that can be summarized in “ i dont like the game therefore it sucks” 😂
Business insider is just mad they don’t understand how to play animal crossing. Maybe solitaire is more in their wheelhouse
“I know there’s people out there who enjoy-“ Oh good they’re respecting other’s opinions” “-this stupid dumb baby game.” Welp spoke too soon
Look, you know you can just say that the Google/Facebook ad duopoly fucked everything up and some articles need hateclicks to survive.
Stop
As if stardew valley residents actually have personality...?
Nah
Its time to admit 'Business Insider' is an uninteresting, boring news source for old people
Look it's you!
This is what’s going to happen to you now
Whoever wrote this article is the epitome of stupid
QuotedReplies
guy whose bio includes 'writer who covers [...] whatever [...] publications will pay him to cover' writing article for an outlet called 'business insider' complains that a game has capitalism in it
Jack Crosbie must have a lot of friends
Ok, boomer
Hope you get the hate-clicks you so desperately crave.
Animal crossing is far from a kids game most kids would find it 'boring' animal crossing is fun and a stress reliever who ever wrote this has gotta be a 12 year old
🖕 F you it’s an amazing game
yall trying to get me to vote for trump by posting this fake news
never played animal crossing, so i can't really say anything about this article or the game itself but...
What it's actually time for:
OK Journalist.
Go back to doing business, Jack.
I dunno, this is kinda a dumb, childish opinion.
Shut the fuck up right now
So when are you admitting you're a greedy clickbaity 'news org' that gets their money from YouTube ads showing grotesque foods and call them 'MUST TRY OMFG FOOD PORN I JACK OFF ON THE CHEESE SAUCE'
Didn't you guys make this cause your website is shit and no one wants to click on it so you had to bait people into clicking a article about a popular game lmao so sad
2 World Wars for shitty news that's mostly bias
Are you sad because it isn't violent and you can't stir up shit because of that?
Did your turnips spoil?
Time to fire someone
I will take Dumb Clickbait video game takes for $1000 Alex. AnimalCrossingNewHorizons
Finally, an excuse to use this image again!
It's time for you to realize that you have no god damn taste.
Imagine rage bating for clicks LMAO
“Game is for children”
TheVibingShizzy Haha lol It's probably just a joke o shit it's serious
It's time to admit that business insider is a dumb and boring. Oh and jscros is pathetic. FixedIt AnimalCrossingNewHorizons
Tom Nook is gonna come for your ankles. 😈
Hello? Based department?
nah
It's time to admit 'Business Insider' is fishing for clicks
I know its bait but
Just so you all know... (don't even click the darn thing)
Ya because the game is the problem and not that you just can’t enjoy it like other. Sure business insider sure.
Delete your account
Reminder this is the same site that had actual pictures of horse semen for some article right on the front page of Twitter.
You know what's dumb and boring? Business magazines, yet here we are.
Ty
Ah yes, because every person above the age of 18 has to enjoy only things marketed towards adults
Guess that means I'm a kid then, sweet, no more paying taxes for me.
It's a game where you walk around and do stuff. Ain't no counting involved.
SavedYouAClickV
After reading this article.
Who is the coward that wrote this? Show yourself
You are loving this heat aren't you
A shit take,is still a shit take
Pfft
Its time to admit most kids are playing cod minecraft roblox and fortnite (not bashing them btw)
Uh oh
?
Your first article on Business Insider, and its to take the piss out of a game that is geared toward a younger audience? Yeah, you'll make it far, kid.
Ok boomer
A que te reviento gilipollas
Imagine being this boring. Let people enjoy things lmao
Why would a publication called 'Business Insider' create an article that loses them business?
Bait
ok boomer
This completely disregards the large amount of adults that are using it as a way to cope with being socially isolated at this time. Animal Crossing has never been a game you play continuously. It's a low-stress game for busy people that can spend an hour or two a day playing.
LMAO
wow this is news
Such a simp
I don’t click trash
shut up boomer
peepee poopoo goo goo ga ga
Write your tweet again without crying admin.
I read the article so you dont have to. Basically sums up with this image. They do state that it is minor nitpicks but then they go on to say that a big reason why they dont like it is because they feel that their villagers have no connection with them and things take too long-
Be quiet, Boomer brand
Animal Crossing must've taught the author how to craft bait.
Thank you Business Insider. With so much fake news and media bias out there it sometimes gets hard to tell whose reliable. Now I can say without a shadow of a doubt that you do not deserve any attention whatsoever
nobody asked business insider but thank you very cool
Maybe you should consider hiring a writer to create articles instead of whatever this guy is.
Here's the archive version if ya guys don't want to click on the real article.
someone’s bitter. stay pressed.
Wow, someone's REALLY running out of article ideas huh? I haven't seen someone this passive-aggresive ever since White in Steven-Fucking-Universe my god
Nah
Yup, not even giving you the pleasure of clicking on your bullshit 'report'
Are you really that desperate for clicks?
'Why is it so hard to equip my net when I am being chased by a swarm of wasps? ' because you're a fucking scrub git good noob
The only reason this article exists is to get angry people to click on and interact with it.
It’s not dumb or boring and mostly the game isn’t just for children it for everyone and people that find it relaxing if you find it dumb and boring then that’s on you have you ever heard of if you don’t have nothing nice to say then don’t say it at all🙄
Badly written article with bad arguments. In a lot of points the autor didn't even try to enjoy the game. Furthermore not everyone has the same taste. If you don't like it, okay. But pls, don't shittalk the game for that
The people replying here agreeing with this have a strong 'banned from Twitch for saying the n word on stream' vibe
it's time to admit that writing purposefully incendiary headlines about popular things is a dumb, boring clickbait tactic for children
So, you've chosen death.
Shut the hell up
ur boring
Ok boomer
look at the fucking business mongrels that are mad about a magic line going down so they take out their frustration on people having fun.
The author openly admitted that this was written for hateclicks. Don’t give them the attention they want
It's okay to be wrong, Jack Crosbie. Gotta love this: 'This is not a personal attack. ...stupid baby game.' Kind of like the stupid baby game of writing useless 'articles' for your demographic. It's not even an objective 'before you buy' piece. Here's the funniest bit (pic)
shut up and let people enjoy things
Oof, stick to writing articles and don't play games anymore cause your taste in them is actual shit 🤣 animal crossing is iconic y'all are just trash PERIODT
Straight into the trash with you
Imagine gatekeeping videogames and call them for children
I'm guessing you just realized how badly you wasted your youth.
Deadass delete your Twitter rn
How did you think this was gonna go?
I agree with the poor UI, shitty wait time to travel and the how the animals cannot interact with the furnitures. But every day I look forward to the animals' interactions, new rare flowers, new outfits in Able Sisters'... The balloons... YOU craft your own story in this game.
BI: 'Animal Crossing is dumb it's so childish and not fun.' Probably Also BI: 'OH MY GOD THE NEW CALL OF DUTY IS A MASTERPIECE THAT TRANSCENDS ALL VIDEO GAME HISTORY.' Feels like you guys hired someone from Kotaku to write your dogshit article lmao
What a loser thing to say.
could you just die right now.
It's time for you to fuck smooth off.
Nah
anyone who says 'X game is for babies' probably are big ol babies themselves, or baiting
Though it's not my kind of game..its wholesome & beautiful & perfect for people of any age..plus its highly successful.. never heard of you though..so take your opinion & kindly fck off! Have a nice day🖕
stay in your lane
OK so what's going on here is - he knows it's an EXTREMELY bad take - he knows this will piss people off - so he uses SUPER aggressive language deliberately to add to the ~daringness~ He knows it's a bad take for clicks, or he would've just written a plain English negative review
your joke isnt very funny
i checked and it is not time
bro better take his twitter handle off this
🙄🙄🙄
You are the worst kind of human beings. Just let people live on its a great game
Boohoo it's based around the mechanic of real-time. I wanna play all day but i cant cuz it's based on real-time Jesus christ noone cares abour your damn article. Let people enjoy the fuckin game.
It’s a game meant for everyone, no matter the age Want to play animal crossing as a kid? You can do that, wanna play it as a teenager? You can do it, wanna play it as a adult? Yes you can Don’t do this just for clicks :/
That's an easy way to bet blocked
Ahhhh are letting morons write articles, how interesting.
aight nobody cares
Between Kotaku, Gamespot and now this Journalism on games has gotten terrible recently
I mean why read a business insider review on a video game? That's like reading a book review in a low rider magazine.
Lmao this stupid clickbait article didn't even get that much traction
Somebody is upset their wife's boyfriend didn't get them the right gift
business insider unlocked bulk bait crafting
someone's mad he can't play the stock market or the stalk market
The clickbait reach goes beyond worlds with this one.
No one gives a fuck let people play what they want.
Hell yeah isn't it great?
As long as you have ads on your website, you shouldn't feel entitled to tell people what to play or what is a game's target audience. Not to mention how BI abuses the EU cookies pop-up. It's practically cyber bullying the visitors.
If you have become so irrelevant, that you have to start shitting on thing people enjoy... Seriously, do it like the rest of the obsolete media and just die with the little dignity you have left
For you maybe. Sorry you hate fun and have no imagination. For some people it’s the only thing getting them through corona
Fine, I'll give you that
This article smells like a spoiled diaper that hasn’t been changed for a week.
If that's the case then I'm more than happy to stay a child
The author in this was too rude, like if you don't like it its okay but he is literally insulting the game and its players
Reminder that people get paid to write this shit.
If you're gonna tell people how to run a business when your output on life is: I don't like it therefore its bad and wrong!!! Then boy I feel bad for whoever takes the advice of a company so outta tune with its surroundings that they can probably sue for damages goD DAMN
How is this related to business exactly
Sounds like something a little baby would say
I'm sorry you spent all your miles trying to get Raymond but please direct your anger elsewhere
Like any game, certain players will only like it. It takes time to open up and like something new. I respect that you have an opinion, but god damn the way you write it just makes it so wrong.
How many clams did you use for this bait
Oh ffs
Let people have fun sourpuss
we will remember this
this is so dumb, what a useless article to write. i cant believe someone got paid to write this
This is why people hate mainstream media
Imagine being this out of touch.
Lmao shut up
Is China running Business Insider? They're the only ones banning the game.
jscros are you crazy
That's an awfully strong stance to take against a relaxing game. You okay? AnimalCrossingNewHorizons
u know just because u don’t like a game,,, doesnt mean it’s bad,,,, u know that right
Corona stopped all major events so they reporting on twitter trends now lmao
Saw this and ran far from it only to come back and comment with this
I don't think this is your wheelhouse. You fellas just cancelled yourselves.
Wow.... how BRAVE
Stop it get some help
Okay Boomer
Didn't even need a manilla clam for this bait
It's like you just gave up at this point. Tom Nook doesn't even make you pay interest and dogging on Capitalism for progressive points is completely disconnected from an actual criticism of the game.
You’re just mad because the stalk market is better than the economy lately lol
Incel much
ok boomer
Ah I see all the Sony trolls are out in force telling you that your game you like is trash with the journlist. Man y’all really must have sad lives if you get happiness outta that
It’s time to admit ‘Business Insider’ is a dumb, boring news site for boomers
Lemme guess-- too hard for you, so you decided bitching about it was a good idea?
For your information, it helps 20 year olds like me relieve stress, especially during these hard times.
y'all saw the LA times 'stop wearing sweat pants' article and decided to get on board that 'writing dumb ass takes for hate clicks' train huh
Neck yourself boomer
Stanisloth they must really be running out of news
It's time to admit it, hatebait is a bad busyness practice used by bad people becausr they are desperate
Dont worry you will feel their warth soon Hope you liked your decision you made rn lol
Lol no one cares what you think about video games go back to lusting after Bezos
This is basically a 'slice of life' game. Theres different genres of games, all kinds, just like with TV, movies, anime etc. Not everything is for everyone, the game isnt childish but the author of this article sure is.
And it's past time for something called Business Insider to realize their 'hot takes' are kind of stale and they should actually just go back to reporting on non gaming related business content instead.
Sleep with one eye open tonight.
Bruh, this is some of the shittiest fucking bait I've ever seen lmfao
Nobody fucking asked
TLDR I don't like animal crossing, so it's dumb.
So stop playing it everyday
Ok boomer
Me when I see this article
Fuck Business Insider. All my homies hate Business Insider.
dumb and for children An adult with real maturity would not write this sort of thing. This is what a kid who is afraid of looking like a kid says when they get caught looking at something 'childish' 'OBVIOUSLY I hate stuff for kids, no way would I ever be caught doing that'
Heres an old meme for you...
Ok, officer
journalism is a joke
Troll Alert.
the fuck you say
inb4 the same people who defended Kotaku's FF7R Easy mode article come to defend this....
Must be a slow news day if you're desperate to post clickbait
Stfu PETA
what do you mean? does that game upset you? is it the fact that it helps a lot of people during quarantine that sprouted your unwelcome opinion? Keep it.
Nice bait, now go play Call of Duty 27 or whatever the hell you consider a real game
nintendo in general is very overrated garbage
let me guess Business Insider is bias towards PlayStation or Xbox and are targeting Nintendo and Animal Crossing just because
It’s time to admit I don’t care what Business Insider thinks and I’m going to continue playing the dumb, boring kids game
It's time to admit no amount of clickbaiting will make people actually read your garbage
haHaHa pOpUlaR gAmE bAd!!!!!
Bait
++) I have a couple of choice images for you
'STOP HAVING FUN!!! WAH WAH'
eat shit, actually
Who hurt you?
I don't think it's time we listen to anything Business Insider has to say about a game. Go report on something you know about.
Who hurt you?
SavedYouAClickV Work your magic.
King post. Nintendo is dogshit.
Nah.
Just admit it, it’s really getting sad at this point
2.9 Million followers on this account and only around 180 total likes. really knows what their readers want for content 🙄 morons knowyourdamnaudience
No
Not giving you a click. You aren't the authority on what is good and who plays the game. Grow up, get a life and get over yourself.
yeah its fun
No
mAtE, tHiS sOuNdS lIkE mAsSiVe BaIt
Go find something better to do than saying a nice, relaxing game for all ages is a exclusively a kids' game. Animal Crossing was designed for everyone. You're probably the same kind of people who see anything with cartoon style and assume it's just for kids.
It's totally valid to not like AC. But this article is just spouting negativity -- the writer lashing out because he feels left out. Why is everyone so excited about this thing he doesn't like? It's not fair!! 😭
dumbass article. who let this get posted
For a verified account. I'm surprised you still don't know the difference between options and facts.
Take it BACK
It's time to admit that Business Insider is trying way to hard to be relevant🙄
I was going to do an in depth analysis of everything wrong w/ jscros’s article (didn’t expect to use my English MA on lunch but here we are) but he and his writing are of a caliber that is really below my ability to care. I could correct him on numerous stylistic errors
Your opinion, mine is different. I love the game and continue to do so.
Hoes really do be mad huh
This writer sounds jealous that a single “childish” game will be more revered than anything they ever manage write in their entire life. Click bait is all they got.
Desperate for some clicks and twitter interaction eh?
I think someone needs a nap
Sorry there's no gun every few seconds
No it isn’t get real
Sounds like someone kept getting their ass kicked on Tarantula Island
have you considered: youre allowed to not like a game WITHOUT saying it's a 'dumb, boring game for children'? people are allowed to ENJOY THINGS, karen
Wow, what an insightful piece of good journalism. 🤦🏽♂️
Idiot. Savage.
And yet it's still more entertaining than reading one of your articles
It's time to admit 'Belly Bros' is a masterpiece of storytelling and its influence on our generation is undeniable
Oh what do you know, you probly Never played An animal Crossing game in your life So you cant really say its dumb until you try it
ok
It's time to admit Business Insider is trash.
As a kid, this would have bored the crap out of me
Then don’t play it? It’s that simple
Tldr: 30 year old man whines, complains, and insults people for enjoying a game he doesn't happen to like, all while continuing to play said game
Looking forward to PCGamer's hot take on fast food franchising models.
Don't you have somthing more business related to report on.... like the stock market... or the current global economy
Slow news days huh? Let the people enjoy what they want to enjoy (Especially since we’re in a global fuckin’ quarantine, and have nothing better to do) “This game is Boring & Dumb bcz it just is, pls agree with me and give us clicks, even tho it’s all just subjective”
No u
You're late with this bait, Fishing Tourney was on the 11th.
Imagine going to university and getting a degree to end up writing this
Even though i hate animal crossing, but this article is an awful bait.
sounds about right from a writer who thinks he's better than you
What the sales say?
Who sucked the joy out of your life ?
I find it boring personally, but it's enjoyment from others shouldn't be minimised.
No revenue for you.
Did you get the clout did you get the clicks you were looking for
Congrats on the engagement bro
Someone is asking to be bitchslapped.
Yeah this is so clearly baiting people it's not worth even looking at
Nice b8 m8
Imma be real and say this is the funniest name for an official article I’ve seen in a while
At least kotakus shit bait article was a little more subtle. You guys aren't even trying.
i like it
honestly, even if this is bait, what kind of backwoods title is that for a news site? sounds like a 3rd grade insult
It’s time to admit this is a giant chicken disguised as a man
get out
Lmao I've never heard of your site before, is that because it's dumb and boring?
come here boy
QuotedReplies
Yeah. That'll get those clicks!
Worst take of 2020. Stick to politics.
Tom Nook an aggressive loan shark? What's wrong fam? Catch too many sea bass or are you just that desperate for clicks? 😆
Oh, piss off.
Wow you didn’t even bother to hide the fact that you’re hunting for hate clicks
And then journos will cry when people don't respect them anymore. Journalism is a joke. We're in the middle of a global pandemic and these mfs posting 4Chan/reddit troll bait as articles to get clicks
This isn't even good clickbait, haha. It's cringe broh
Whelp; I've just re-enabled Adblock Plus on - Hot takes like that don't deserve ad revenue.
TLDR- Animal Crossing sucks because they don’t like the game
😎Yeah you say that now Just wait until the modders their hands on it Mod Foarmericanist
Oi Jack! Keep your buyers remorse to yourself pls.
Boy, you didn’t just kick the hornets nest, you set off the entire damn bee farm.
Tom Nook will break your kneecaps like a 'legitimate businessman' if you keep this up
Who hurt you growing up?
Read as: shit news site going under, trying anything for a few clicks
Supprime
he must be losing his shit realizing cant craft an ironwood cupboard :/
As I can see the only thing that you really want is a click. Maybe later, I am Playing ANIMAL CROSSING!!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂
So why is business insider making this article?
Your opinion is invalid. And you're a garbage company
'It's time to admit 'Star Wars the Last Jedi' is a dumb, boring movie for children' -Business Insider totally not disparate for content and clicks 😂
The Sony fans are at it again
wheres the guy who posts that one nobody cares video? its time for that
It's time to admit 'Business Insider' is not worth reading.
It's time to admit you are running low on content when you decide criticizing people choice in gaming is suitable for a business blog
'This is not a personal attack' *Proceeds to attack anyone saying they love a 'stupid baby game'*
Sure. If ya say so.
Daily reminder this kind of articles are written only for you to be baited to click on them. Don't fall for it
'I didn't have fun and since my head is too far up my ass to admit it's just not for me, nobody else is allowed to have fun either.'
It's time to admit y'all have bad taste 😔
Guys, guys. I got enough actual game journalists having dumbass gaming takes, I don't need any more from Business Insider.
r u kidding me
SavedYouAClickV
Wow wrong
Ok Boomers
*writer says this is not a personal attack* 'I know and respect many people who love this stupid game'
Look at that delicious, delicious bait. Or someone with a wrong opinion.
Animal Crossing is the only thing holding me back from the brink of chaos
When did Business Insider start hiring 14 year olds to write for them?
As opposed to Business Insider, which isn't boring at all.
Fucking pointless 😂 anything for attention aye? 😂
Delete your account.
A game that has seemingly helped do many during COVID 19... Not really childish, pretty great thsts it's bringing people together safely in a time of need.
Awww... is de poor Bwuissness Insider sad dat dey couldn’t get their iwland to five stars? Do dey think cartoon = for kids? Sowwy you needed a cwickbait title... :((((
all of twitter right now
It’s time to admit that this tweet is trash.
why are yall even weighing in on this? no one asked you at all.
Says a account with 2.9m followers, but inside of 100 likes and 10 shares per post. Your grasping for relevance
Good cute animal game 😋
Stick to business. You are out of your depth
Jesus what’s with all the bad takes coming from hipster douchebags freelancing for news websites. First the sweatpants and now this
I know that's bait, but regardless
Then why are you talking about it?
'''''business insider'''''
Stick to business. 'Business' insider my ass
Animal Crossing: just sold 3 million units in under a month, as the economy falls to pieces. BI: 200,000 online subscribers 😂😂😂 You guys are losers
Since when do News Sites use words like 'dumb'
I'm just here for the comments
Sounds like somebody doesn’t know how to play
Not your type of game, that's fine but please stick to business bullshit, alright sweetheart? ;)
okay but what makes this 'business' related?
I came here thinking this was fake, wow, you people over at are really just that stupid... lol
I'm all about Doom Eternal and would never touch Animal Crossing. But a good friend of mine loves it and it offers him a profound serenity that helps him de-stress from work and all the BS he deals with. I'm happy he finds relief in such a game. Who cares if it's a cuddly game?
I’m sorry you suck at it
Get ready for the replies
JayDubcity16 trash website and trash article the game is amazing switches are sold out everywhere and millions worldwide are enjoying this masterpiece
*Tom Hardy Voice* That's bait
That feeling when you're a milennial and the only way to get by is to go into the wilderness and start your own economy from scratch, befriending animals along the way.
Very cool business insight
You're about to have a slew of angry Animal Crossing fans knocking down your door.
'My subjective opinion about a game is a FACT and it's time you all ADMIT THAT I'M RIGHT!!! Haha gottem!!!'
JayDubcity16
This pandemic really got people this bored huh?
Once again, a writer gets thrown under a bus of a headline for clicks.
That bait tho...
Oh shutup
When your “fast-growing business site with deep financial, media, tech, and other industry verticals” isn’t worth a damn so you try to drum up hate-clicks by crapping on a mega-popular video game.
How about...no.
Revenue must have been down for the week.
It's time to admit this writer doesn't like the game so feels like he should insult those that enjoy it. Everyone is entitled to an opinion but calling it dumb and for children is ironically such a dumb childish way to put an opinion across.
🧢
Bet I'm making more turnip money than you 'business insider '
Wah wah
This art is bad. That food is bad. Yeah no shit BI. That’s why we like it.
Boomer
Oh kotaku, You never learn...o wait!
Maybe boring for you, but both my kids are playing nicely - for 3 days. TOGETHER. NoFights AnimalCrossingFamilyValues
ok boomer
rot
Why would anyone trust business insider for opinions on videogames? Please shut up
Why the fuck is Business Insider bitching about people liking Animal Crossing?
are you that desperate for traffic
Please.
Journalism nowadays man. Just say that it's not your kind of game and move on. Just because you didn't enjoy it, doesn't mean 'we can all admit that it's a 'dumb boring game for children''. This dumbass statement, mind you, shouldn't even be the title of a professional article.
“This is not a personal attack” 2 seconds later “Stupid baby game” 🧐
Ay yo mate you jealous of my 270 hour save? Also eat a dick
Could you roll my eyes back to me, please?
Is Business Insider a website about business or an elementary school playground?
no
AEGRO Ok so i read this articale, so here's a TL;DR: Animal Crossing sucks cause they don't like the kind of game it is.
Clickbait....Or a wink to China to let them know you're still on board?
Ok boomer
okay boomer....
How the fuck this is related to business 😂?
Ya boi angry he can't find a DIY Ironwood Dresser.
Mind your business sweetie. This game is not for you.
isabelle is v sorry but ur town is one star
ah piss off. i don’t even like the game but legitimately piss off. let people enjoy what they want
do y'all hear sumn?
It’s a highly creative game, that lets people enjoy it in any way they please. This is dumb.
Yo MrJoshuaBowling, they coming at you bro
True. I came to this conclusion on day 2 of the game. Sold it on eBay already.
why is BUSINESS INSIDER even posting about this? what does it matter to you
But it has such great messages!
This is the most tome-deaf, gatekeepy, annoying, wrong piece of shit article I’ve seen today, and I’ve already seen a lot. Re-evaluate why you care so damn much about what people are doing in their own time and maybe catch some fish while you’re at it.
Imagine being this profound a soulless bore.
I agree
It still sold millions and made switch sold out
Playstation 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
This is a bad take and you should feel bad for saying it.
Can we put an end to people writing unpopular opinions as if they're an objective fact that only a few people have the exclusive privilege of revealing?
Silence, parasite.
'I mean, those coconuts you shook out of that tree aren't even, like, *real* man! They're just imaginary coconuts! In a game! You're playing a game!'
It's almost as if it's supposed to be relaxing
It’s not my type of game - I’m mainly watching my wife play - but the level of detail and effort that went into making it is astounding.
“Like, it doesn’t even tell me my kill/death ratio at the end of each day. LAME!”
I feel personally attacked.
Which is pretty fucking nice during these wtf is going on times. Now i gotta water some flowers bitch
Bet you haven't even played all the others before this one smh.
GOTY.
It's time to admit your experiences are not universal
Here’s your next story Jack. “Why owning a cat is a dumb, boring relationship”. This article is honestly a joke along with the author. What a horrible way to get views and clicks. The game definitely wasn’t for you Jack
jscros who hurt you
Youve been spending too long making business articles, youve forgotten what fun is. im sorry for your loss x
What fake a** gaming contrarian wrote this buuuulls***. 🤣
'Everything anybody likes is childish and bad, except for the things I like, which are awesome and good, but I won't tell you what they are, because then you might like them too and then they would be childish and bad'
Slow news day I guess.
I think you meant to say a game,enjoyed by all, that sold 1.88 million copies in 3 days.
Nobody cares about your opinion dude 😪
Wait a minute, this isn't business related.
Not all games can be as luxurious and rich as AdCap!
someone let their turnips rot
2020 journalism is just click baits at this point. Reviewers and sites literally have no credibility 🤔
narc
Damn! All the smoke huh?😂
Your attempt at getting likes isn’t working
Slow news day be slow
Here for the ratio. Imagine spending all the time to write this trash lol.
Shut up Jack
What a boomer
'nobody reads our shit' 'make something controversial; that'll generate interest'
Well damn
So this is where your career decided to die? Sad thing.
Someone needs a fucking nap.
how can someone make such an incendiary comment about such a chill, cool, calm game lol
you spelt PlayVALORANT wrong
I'm just here for the ratio. 💙
Ahem
It's time to admit 'Business Insider' is a trash, useless publication.
Like we all understand teh interface issue, but have you actually played an AC game before? There is literally no story. A game doesn't have to have a story to be fun. Are we going to stop playing monopoly cause it makes us oligarchs for an hour?
'...and I why won't anyone play with me?!'
Facts
time to admit you can go fly a kite
how dare you.
This is a really bad take. Just let ppl enjoy what they like
perish.
ACNH
Let the people in quarantine have their distractions, cop. Lmao
