I actually like that Nintendo is getting some competition in some of its long entrenched genres. I recently started playing an early access game called Dinkum that's an Animal Crossing competitor, and it's refreshing to see it go places where Nintendo won't (there's some light combat, a more robust terraforming system, a way bigger island, and more importantly doing mundane shit like going in and out of buildings or catching fish/insects doesn't lock you into 5+ seconds sequences). It's still a little janky at times and rough around the edges but it's a very entertaining game if you liked (or tried to like) the most recent Animal Crossing.
