This is an incredibly important episode of Haken. Sergio will be taking a break from the show for an undetermined amount of time. We see him off with a special guest, a ton of great topics, and our love. We understand his need to take time off and focus on his mental health. This week, Tumeg joins us to discuss her art for the show. From there, we get to know her a bit and her background in Animal Crossing. We talk about the new Animal Crossing icons that are available on Switch. Finally, we get into how Animal Crossing can improve through additional accessibility features. After that, we get a special message from Sergio. We close out the show by asking our patrons what they find fun about Animal Crossing.

Why is Animal Crossing fun? It's a concept that is hard to grasp from the outside. Today, Nina, Sergio and I discuss the different aspects of Animal Crossing that make it a fun game. I go over what I liked about the game in the past and what I enjoy now. Sergio does the same but also includes some aspects that have remained true throughout the series. Nina talks about how she enjoys a lot of the same things she enjoyed when she first started. Finally, we ask our patrons about their favorite memories in year two of New Horizons.

It has been 2 years of Animal Crossing New Horizons released and we're here to celebrate the game thus far! We kick off the show with some ice breakers. After that, Nina gives us a recap of the different updates we got during year 2 of New Horizons. After that, we discuss how our gameplay changed between year 1 and year 2. We also talk about a lot of other random topics spanning the game in year 2. Finally, we end by asking our patreon supporters for their hot takes about Animal Crossing.
