It's cool overall, but is somewhat short on content (mainly furniture and generic villager conversations), and too many things are added after the fact that should have been in the game on release like the added emotes, sea creatures and so on (and more to come). It also gets grindy as hell if you want to get every recipe as there are a lot and are all chance based. Good luck if you don't have anyone to help you. Also some menus are a bit of a hassle to walk around and some are really frustrating and time wasting, like the airport ones. Some things are so unnecesarily slow and tiring that it can take a toll on you eventually, specially if you play for some hours every day.
Aside from that, if you just play a bit each week through the year, it's a fine game.
