minus-squareedge [he/him]hexbear5·2 years agoI think a big thing is you don't really pay rent, it's more like a mortgage, and even then you don't actually have to pay him back. He's not going to kick you out or anything. link
minus-squareSea_Gull [they/them]hexagonhexbear7·2 years agoIt's interesting because he was made more capitalistic in other ways. Like the island is basically a company town down to them using their own kind of money. link

minus-squareSea_Gull [they/them]hexagonhexbear5·2 years agoIt's more like he owns a company town. Right down to the currency. You are made to colonize a tract of land into the company town. All items in the store are bought and sold through Nook. You also recruit others to the island to increase Nook's profits. link
