The event that made countless players reluctant is back, that is Bunny Day Event. This means that bunny who made countless players feel uncomfortable is also coming back! This year's pre-Bunny Day celebration starts on April 13 and is expected to last for about two weeks.
Bunny Day event is ACNH's first seasonal event, and it should bring fresh and beautiful memories to players' spring. During the event, players can collect eggs around their islands and hand them over to Zipper, who is like an Easter bunny. Doesn't it sound as interesting and exciting as many Easter events?
In fact, the experience brought to players by this event is exactly the opposite of what they expected. Many people think that the mechanism of the event adds a lot of trouble to them, and most importantly, Zipper in a bunny suit makes many horror elements appear out of thin air in the game.
Troublesome Mechanics
If Zipper is just a psychological problem, then the core mechanism of Bunny Day Event - collecting Easter eggs - directly affects the player's gaming experience. Just one month after the release of Animal Crossing: New Horizons in 2020, Bunny Day Event debuted. At first, players were excited about this, but after experiencing it for a while, some people finally couldn't stand this event with eggs everywhere.
Players said that they had difficulty getting cute Animal Crossing New Horizons Items to decorate their islands. Because you get eggs, no matter what you do. The drop rate for the eggs is so high that players get eggs no matter what they do. They can be found on trees, in water, and even in the soil. This also caused a lot of trouble for players.
Weird Zipper
As one of Nintendo's most healing IPs, Animal Crossing franchise has always been known for its warm atmosphere. Players build an ideal home on their islands and establish deep friendships with cute animal neighbors. Although there are sometimes some weird villagers who are not so popular with players, they are not as shadowed as Zipper T. Bunny.
The reason why players have so many complaints about Zipper is that Zipper's character design is not very beautiful. He always looks depressed and sad before seeing the player, and immediately returns to a gloomy expression after the player leaves. Such a face-changing speed like a horror movie character makes them feel terrified. In addition, Zipper will also wander around the player's island. Sometimes he appears behind the tricycle with a slightly out-of-focus look, making him look weird and gloomy. The beautiful island instantly becomes like a scene in The Shining because of him. Although Animal Crossing has always been known for its cuteness and warmth, Zipper is definitely an exception in the hearts of players.
In short, it is precisely because of these bad experiences that players have a serious shadow, so that they are afraid of the return of the rabbit character every year. Of course, many of these complaints are actually jokes. With the return of Bunny Day Event, those moments of being scared by Zipper will eventually become funny screenshots in the album.
