I think it would be really cool if they would remember us when we go villager hunting!

Would be so awesome if villagers could recognize us. Especially for those who have the DLC and go to the Happy Island Paradise island and still be able to be recognized if somebody you worked for moved to your island. They could bring like 1 item that you had chose for their island home to show their appreciation for what you did for them

One thing she didn't mention was Villagers when you invite them at Happy Home Paradise don't seem to remember you. Even when you invite them using Souvenir Cookies and they move out your island they don't even make any mentions how "Oh I used to live on your island, but since I have a vacation home you can always visit me" instead they behave just like the others that you see on Nook Mile Islands and Random Campsite visits. They are just clones of each other that don't remember who you are.

If you use the DLC and make your neighbours a house on there, they will remember you even if they move off your island, it’s the way I keep in touch with everyone who has moved 😄

I like to think of each villager that doesnt remember you as a different iteration of that villager on a different time line or alternate universe. Or there was a Nook induced memory wipe just before they leave.

I've had Bluebear remember me on a dream island once. Like she said the dream would only be good if she had her biggest fan in it.

It's like they have westworld host memory. Once they reset, they forget about you and you have to go through befriending them again.

they remember 160 people? that's actually amazing! I wish they could remember us if we find them on regular hunts tho

I wonder why they didn’t implement them remembering you on Mystery Islands as a feature They could implement them remembering the last 160 players but not them saying something unique if you encounter a former villager on a Mystery Island?

Its sad that villagers at the Resort for Happy Home Paradise don't remember you at all even when you invite them using Souvenir Cookies from your island they somehow lose their personality and act like they don't know who you are. Its so weird.

Also, not sure if this counts, but if you give a villager a furniture item, and they invite you to visit their house and allow you to take something, if you ask to take that furniture from them, they’ll actually remember exactly when you gave them it which I thought was neat

Can you imagine the sass if they could remember you while villager hunting?! 😅

Always seemed odd to me that you couldn't write old villagers letters/get letters from them, or even a phone call call (like Tom Nokk does from time to time).

Chrissy moved out April 2021 from my island, I recently bought a second Switch and a second copy of Animal Crossing New Horizons. When I was moving in villagers on my new island I wanted to se who would auto fill, and Chrissy showed up as one of them, the rest was new villagers. I promptly went over with my old player and Chrissy recognized me right away. 😁

Didn't realize you could jail your favorite villager 🤣

Sometimes you may get villagers who were from deleted islands. Like for example I had an unwanted villager that just came to my island by the name Jay. He mentions how he just moved from "Spiral" which was the old island I used to have back last year when it was deleted.

Interestingly, I’ve heard and read from others that occasionally villagers will actually remember you on NMT islands (I think it was supposedly changed in a recent update, I believe one of the smaller ones after the 2.0 update). However this hasn’t been the case for me so I don’t know if it’s just a rumor/myth or if I’ve just gotten unlucky 🤷🏼‍♀️ With that said, I did once have a villager (Croque) ask to leave. When I villager hunted, he was the first villager I saw and he did not remember me. I figured if it had been weeks or even months, past villagers wouldn’t remember you, but if Nintendo genuinely did change it I’m surprised that the villager who had literally just left didn’t remember me. For now I’m assuming Nintendo didn’t actually change this, and villagers don’t remember you on NMT islands, but if this is incorrect or they do change it later, I would love to see the dialogue from those interactions.

I wouldn’t hate watching a video of Kora experimenting the 160 thing.

I have to say… you are my favorite personality KZfaqr ! You’re voice is very welcoming and great tone ! Perfect story teller! and fun designs. Glad I found you!

I don't know if I'm forgetting a detail or some connection I missed that makes this make sense, but I had a villager that was on my island maybe 2 years ago, not long after the game came out, and has since moved off my island well over a year and half ago. Then recently I've started a new island on a 2nd switch with a different account I created. That island began with that old villager as one of the two starters. Weird thing is when I visited that island the first time that villager recognized me. That totally shocked me and I have no idea how it could be that the villager knew me. It was too weird. I wish I could explain it.

I swear another animal crossing KZfaqr said it was possible since the 2.0 update that they remember you when villager hunting. Then again I saw Gayle after selling her on Nookazon and I don’t think she remembered me xD

I think you write off the NH villagers top easily. If you talk to them frequently you start to get cool little stories and spme really funny & charming moments.

What about keeping their memories on HHP? If I make a vaca home for a current villager, they know me. If I make a vaca home for a past villager, not. But what if I make a vaca home for a current villager, and then they leave my home island? Will they still remember me on HHP?

Thanks for another wonderful and informative video!

Hey Kora, how about a video about the friendship between villagers? I was always interested what kind of friendship they had between each other. Appreciate your content

I have 2 islands. I booted marina and clause from my main island and they were my random villagers in my second island! When my first player visited the second island, they both remembered me

It’s pretty cool that they can remember you

Never knew about the island thing. Very cool detail

i just wanted to say hi thanks for the video!!! :) :)

My villagers sometimes say "how is (name) on (name) island doing today?" or sth. Names I do not recognize and villagers I either got through campsites or amiibos

Can you do tut about how you record the animal crossing gameplay?

i saw the neighbor who left my island in happy home paradise, talked to him... he forgot i existed

HHP Remember you after you let them go.

My villagers keep bringing up my ex who used to visit my island..

This game is amazing. Villagers can remember 160 people while I can't even remember what I had for breakfast

Note: this video was recorded before 2.0 (they actually remember you now)

I gave Ellie to my friend some time ago and even when I came back eventually she kinda forgot me

Thanks!

I have an odd question. Me and my friend both have Slyvanna. If one of our Slyvanna’s move out and we try to take the other, would we have to Slyvanna’s on our island, or would the prompt just never show up?

160 people huh? That's fair considering that's close to the estimated average limit of interpersonal relationships humans can remember in detail

I wish the neighbors you invited to live on the vacation islands retained their memories after they leave your home island. :/ Or at least greeted you with the last nickname they used for you so it felt like they still remembered. 😭

alright, im not 100% im just imaging this or if it was a dream or whatever, but my little sister was there and reacted along with me when this happened... this was in 2020 maybe mid summery, i had the eagle Avery on my island for a while, gifted him stuff and all that then gave him to my friend when he moved out, but when i found them again on the FIRST island, he recognised me,, like greeted me and knew me already and was wearing a shirt he left in... i really do hope theres some sort of proof on my switch camera roll, ah so frustrating

poor bubbles :(

What if… while the villager is on your island, you invite them to happy home paradise and build them their vacation home? If you found them on the HHA beach after kicking them out, would they still use your nickname like they do if you speak to them there while they’re still living on your island?

wow i had no idea they could move back to your island! i’ve also seen some people put villagers that are moving out on the dlc island… i wonder if they still remember you there ?

My girlfriend got a villager from nook mile island and that was one I kicked out previously and when I visited her island he recognized me

look i knew beforehand villagers could remember u if they moved to another island but I thought they’d forget bout u after they move to a 2nd island not the 160th!! & especially didn’t know they kept all the friendship data thru all that! i’d still like them to remember u when findin them elsewhere tho (mystery islands, hhp) they wouldn’t even need to keep any data just say in the lines that they know us

I don’t think that anyone is gonna know I ever existed considering that fact that I haven’t played in 5 months :(

I got hippeux from auto fill and he used to be on my brother's island and i had my character from that island and he remembered that character and he used to tell my character from my current switch about how he used to live on my brother's island

One of my first villagers (Kat) said she wanted to move out I told her NOOOOO don't leave! I KNEW she was gonna be the first to ask if she could leave I had a serious hunch day 1 that she was gonna ask me first She stayed in her house most of the time through my first few months (tried to go and visit) Then she went home to visit her mother Then asked me the dreaded question 🥲 Well I'm never letting her leave

I found an abandoned switch on the side of the road but it doesn't have Animal Crossing on it...😔

my boyfriend just randomly got my wolfgang cause i moved him out while my bf had an empty plot, how we know this is because when my bf went to talk to him wolfgang said “well this sure isn’t sharkbait (the name of my island) “ my bf didn’t get him in boxes or anything he just moved onto his island and he remembered me😭

So... what happens if you've sent a villager to a friend, find and invite a doppelgänger to your island, then talk to the original when they're in boxes on your friend's isle? (Nope, not expecting to end up with both, would just hope the original could make a lighthearted reference to the situation.)

Tangy

the other day, i moved one of my least favorite villagers off my island. the next day, i try to go villager hunting, and the first villager i get is the one i moved off my island. do you know the odds of that by chance?

Nice

Tbh this is one of the most inconsistent mechanics in the game😂

No they don't remember unless your friends take them only way

yay im there :D

i wish.

Coffee visit: JOYOUS REUINION HHP: Hey Stranger u work here right?

Hello!

Zucker don't remember me on my friend island :(

i love when the queen posts

KORA! Remeber hunting for Merry? I got her on the First Ticket! 0.12% chance baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

My real neighbors on planet earth could give two hoots, we Didn't even know she was pregnant until we saw them bringing a baby in the house And they're moving and never told us they were removing and we just see the sign out there So yes real neighbors can be Ignorant or self absorbed But bubbles was on my son's island and she Ha-ha ha me Ha ha-ha Real neighbors can stink but I love animal crossing neighbors

Oh no, seems like Kora's been playing a bit too much Car Quest lately too

They should.

Hi

It’s true and it’s rude

In my game,, Benedict left because he said he watched a tv show about travailing the world bug hunting or something like that, and I wished him luck. Simon too left, but he wanted to travel without watching tv. I did not convince him to stay and was glad I did not do so. In both cases, I went villager hunting to replace them, and got Pippy to join, two days before Bunny Day, and Whitney.

so their CLONES!!!! oH nO!!11!

Trying to get Tybalt or Felicity out but the thought bubble continues to flip between Pietro and Walker 😭😭😭

I don't ever want Cherry to leave my island, but because she was an O.G. resident her house furnishings are terrible! I want her to go and immediately move back so she can have her cool studio apartment with the hot tub! Wish I knew how to make that happen..... she deserves to live in a cool house. 😥

Dude... *I got shino in 4 tickets on my restarted island...* Think of a luckier moment. *Ill wait.*

Villagers are so weird in this game and the lack of personality they have when you talk to them is so boring.

First! I love you koramora!
