The Next Animal Crossing Needs a Way to Stop Players From Breaking This Unwritten Rule

Animal Crossing: New Horizons has built up a wonderful community over the years, though that hasn’t stopped some players acting in bad faith. One of New Horizons‘ unwritten rules can be broken in the form of its multiplayer feature; websites like Nookazon that encourage item trading as well as features like Daisy Mae’s stalk market encourage the use of island visitors, though this has resulted in some instances of stealing. Over the years, players have tried to rectify this in creative ways, though New Horizons‘ successor could stand to make more mechanical changes to inhibit this behavior.
