Read the interview to discover Ron's thoughts on Myst, Animal Crossing, Gamespot, and Idle Thumbs.
You're missing out. I think one of the best things about Animal Crossing is that you can go in, play the game for short periods of time, and you never lose. Animal Crossing isn't a competition, and I think that is one of the very big problems with games these days is—well they're called "games," right—it's a big competition. If it's not a competition with "controller number 2," it's a competition against the game to beat it.
