I crashed about 7 times while trying to plant and water new seeds. I would begin planting a row of seeds by holding A, and there would be no response. Sometimes, I could back out of the seed selection menu by pressing B, but most of the time it would sit there with the seed menu open until it would crash outright 😦

Crashing consistently every 35-60 minutes. The more buildings I enter and storage chests I open the faster it is to crash. Also crashing after doing any kind of decorating in furniture mode and trying to close it out.

My map always crashes, either the fast travel menu doesn’t disappear from the screen and I’m stuck on it even though I have traveled to where I click or the map just doesn’t load but I can move the cursor around to the different locations and I have to then force the game to close as I can’t do anything but move around the map with my cursor, it won’t let me click anything or change tap

Third freeze: I put in the orb of strength on the beach in the pillar, and after the cutscene it froze while the helping menu came up.
It’s very random.

Also here again to report constant crashes on the switch, which for me has made the game nearly unplayable since around the middle of November and I had only started it on the 25th of October. So I paid $75 and got to play it for less than a month before it went into various cycles of near constant crashing or needing to be force closed. When it’s not crashing the lag is really bad and my character will stop planting, as an example, and just be frozen there and I’ll have to start the action again even though I was holding the button down the whole time. It’s every activity that takes a long press though, so planting, harvesting, mining. The lag is so bad I cannot fish at all and even running around either my character is glitching or characters in view or my pet are stuttering like they’re blinking into and out of existence. This has been such a miserable experience that I regret paying so much for. And I just keep trying because it was so expensive but every time I open the game it’s really messed up IF I can play it at all, and that’s a big IF.
We’ve been saying the same stuff nonstop for months on end now but it doesn’t seem to get better, but instead new stuff is added to the game and none of it makes any sense when so many of us can’t even play.

This is really sad bc so many people play on the switch and it feels like the switch port has the most problems. And ever since the last big update the problems have gotten a lot worse. The game constantly crashes and freezes no matter what you’re doing. You could be going inside a building, In furniture mode, opening/closing menus, or literally just moving the camera while walking. If it’s not crashing it’s lagging horribly and it gets to the point where I have to stop moving for 15 seconds just so the game can catch up with itself. Every single time I try to play this game there’s always a glitch or a crash. This channel feels like the dev team wanted us to have a place to complain and they never look at what people are saying is wrong and it’s not fixed. At this point I feel cheated out of my money, the games fun but the amount of crashes and problems just to play it is infuriating.

the fact that crashes on the switch for any type of activity have been complained about since back in september (going on 6 months now) and still have not been fixed in any way shape or form and the developers don't seem to try to push faster "hot fix" updates and just make people wait until the next big update, really makes me not want to buy anything from this developer

The issues we're seeing on Switch should be the same performance of older PCs like my Alienware 17 R3.
(Because the NVIDIA graphics cards inside them both are about the same era of production.)
Developers of the modern age work with 2k+ dollar PCs, usually without any budgetary constraints.
A lot of issues with Switch, is that developers like that want all the pretty stuff, so they usually keep all the giant polygons used in the versions of other games. Bigger polygon count means more stress for older NVIDIA graphics cards used in Nintendo Switch.
Nintendo has been using inferior tech for decades, while still providing very pretty graphics.
Heck, Game Freak almost lost the Pokémon franchise entirely because the dang dinosaur that they could afford had crashed so badly.
If anyone can patch DDL for better performance, it would be Nintendo. Game Loft seems to prefer going lone wolf on this one.
So, it's unfortunately a Game Loft problem that will be treated like SEGA's PSO2NGS:
stonewalled into oblivion as company-shill commenters shame poorer users for having a budget that can't afford new tech every year.

I don’t have the time or energy to report these other than in batches but I agree with what folks are saying. I’m still crashing a ton or frozen to the point of having to force restart. Sometimes I’m not even doing anything other than jogging. Earlier today I was standing completely still just waiting for the star path timer to run out so I could release my buddy and swap them out for another that I was standing near. So I was quite literally doing nothing.

Crashes at least two times a game session. I’ve learned to save constantly especially if I’m in furniture mode and do a lot of decorating. Sometimes I don’t make it and it crashes while doing so much work and I just give up at that point and stop playing for the day. Very discouraging.

Not sure if this is an actual bug or not. But I've noticed that whenever there is a 'cutscene' or a wrapping up of a quest where there might be a video/animation going on, my switch seems to skip over it. Can't say for certain, as I don't know what is supposed to happen at those times, but it does seem like it is skipping over something.

...without crashing at random intervals, sometimes 3-5 times a session. Nothing is safe, everything can, and most likely will, result in a crash.
It feels like the more I add to my town and move things around, the more sluggish it runs and the more likely it is to crash or freeze entirely.
I love playing it on the Switch, but I am seriously considering shelfing the game until it's better optimized

System: Switch; Issue: since update my game freezes when I’m harvesting or planting. Did it twice today in quick succession. Only played for 20 mins when that occurred. I had Scar as my buddy for harvesting the first time and when it froze we stared at each other for 5 mins as I couldn’t move or do anything. Other critters were moving around us. Scar actually moved at one point but none of my controls were working so had to force log off.

Issue: Game stuck on ‘Welcome Mirabel’
Information:
First of all thank you so much for the game. I’ve been enjoying it since launch. Unfortunately my game is stuck on “Welcome Mirabel!”.
I got the quest from Merlin to place the mini casita. I removed some trees, moved some fruits and houses to make room for it. Then I placed the house and closed the world editor. The text “Welcome Mirabel!” is in my screen, but it doesn’t load the scene.
I cannot open my menu or do anything, because it does not respond. I do see movement of characters and my avatar moves her face and eyes.
I tried to reload the game, but it opens on “Welcome Mirabel!” and it has removed my avatars house.

I recently bought the game on switch because i have it pretty well maxed out on xbox and wanted to start over. The amount of crashes/freezes is astounding.

Honestly atp I’d rather they just refund everyone who bought the game on switch and then give each player a personalized code so they can download their cloud save on a different console (including PlayStation). The game is not playable or stable on Switch and probably never will be given the track record. No amount of “premium” items or star paths is going to make me want to play this game ever again.

I recently got my refund denial email from them but I think everyone who wants one should just start sending a support ticket asking for one. That way they can clearly see the overwhelming outcry for it and maybe something will be done. I don’t really care how they have to do it - whether it’s reaching out to Nintendo and making some kind of deal with them or what - but the way I see it, the more people who officially ask for it by emailing support, the faster something will be done about it. You’re right, it’s absolute bs, and to get denied a refund for a game they know doesn’t work on the platform is even worse. More people need to push for it for anything to happen.

- I’ve been playing as normal, but then none of my storage or menu options (accessed through the + button) will open for me to put things in/take out, or access the map/pockets/quests/save screens etc.
- I’ve gone into Scrooge’s store or Goofy’s stalls, and clicked to buy an item but there’s no dialogue/menu options. It just stays on a screen showing my character and the NCP I’m talking to.
All of these issues have caused me to force close the game as I’ve been unable to open the menus to save/exit safely.

deft zephyr
Need help! For the second time (completely restarted game first time) I can't interact with most of my crops and trees. Also the shop hasn't changed in days!
terse crystal
When I clicked “enter” on the portal by Kristoff (I’m new to the game), the game force quit and gave me an error that something had gone wrong do it had closed the game.
If I leave my game running and switch off, my game often freezes. It can freeze with a menu open and I can’t close the menu or move without force quitting.
pseudo wave
Every time I try to move things in my village around it freezes up
finite fulcrum
I just dealt with this for about 10 minutes while working on my Sunlit Funfair

Game freezing every time I’m in furniture mode and try to move Merlin’s house. I just want Merlin in the forest 😂😩
gilded osprey
Switch: game won’t let me hang out with characters. I select let’s hang out and the character in this case prince Eric agrees, only he never follows and the prompt is there when I go back.
unique remnant
error n closed while fast traveling
spiral lion
Got a “problem encountered” message, game force quit and I had to restart it. Lost just about every thing that was in my bag. I had just used a pick axe potion and had a bunch of emeralds and amethyst and it’s all gone. But the game is still recognizing that I used that pick axe potion. Only reason I know this is because after I made the potion, I didn’t have enough to make another. I checked and it’s still showing that I don’t have the materials to make another one.
buoyant rock
Crashes a lot when I'm taking pictures during quests. I usually get this screen ...
Isn't that a debug/technical test screen? How does that even show up for players? It should be hidden in the data.

I have no idea! It doesn't do it when im taking regular photos, only during quests which is weird
analog dew
Loads of crashes on my switch yesterday, most related to moving things. My 2 miner villagers also get stuck on a particular rock in the glade of trust. I needed to tell them I’d see the. Later to release them, then invite to hang out again.
rare orbit
How the crash occurred:
Like for the 10th time or so...
Video speaks for itself... i already exit the game.
And don't give any "excuses" about Switch cannot handle it al... I play Fortnite with NO issues at all!!
Yes, yes it does tend too let you wait a little too load... Still it loads every single item and even conversations with characters are smooth. Sometimes it's Chaos and it does not glitch, error or even lagged.

Issue: game keeps freezing ether on the map or when you open a new memory. It also crashes after 2-3h of gaming sometimes even less then 2-3h
inner bane
Platform: Switch
Issue: crashes occasionally when loading a memory and closes the game. Loses anything between an hour and 5 mins game play.
I completed wall-e’s hidden requirements task a few days ago and didn’t notice when it crashed it reversed it so now I need to try and find the hidden requirement again 😩 I already fixed the memory drive thing!
mental oar
Three crashes in the last 20 minutes.
- Tried to talk to Maui and everything froze up. Had to close and reopen.
- Tried to look at the Map. It came up totally blank except for the Castle and main Well. Had to close and restart.
- Opened game after resting it for 15 minutes, and an error occurred as soon as the main screen (before I opened my file) began. It restarted on its own
spice marten
Since the last updat I have had the following issues still.
When mass digging or harvesting game will freeze and I have to restart. After the update this would happen at least ever 30 minutes now it’s not as often but still happening
golden plume
Froze and screen blinking while exiting furniture outdoor mode. 3 times in 12 hours. I had to completely close out of the game each time.
mental oar
Had just closed due to an error, reopened game and planted a few seeds, opened the map and it’s blank and frozen

Issue: tried to exit build mode, and the screen started flashing and won't stop loading. my game has crashed twice today already :/
placid cove
I seem to be getting a fair number of random crashes on the switch. Once leaving my house, once leaving Remi's, once leaving the forest of Valor, and once opening the menu in the frosted heights. This is over the past few days.
violet dagger
Not sure if this counts as a crash but I’ve been trying to get out of build mode for a while now. I’m going to have to close the game to get off it. Gonna lose everything I did, which wasn’t too much luckily
coarse sierra
My game crashed twice in quick succession, once from walking in the glades of trust and then just after redemption of the 100 centennial surprise, which now won’t give me the iron or the headband
jagged pasture
It's not letting me choose the food and give the food ??
last mirage
Hi I'm having constant game freezes when I try to plant more than one item at a time. The only way to fix it is to shut the game down and then reload. It's only happened since the last update.

open path
Platform: Switch
Issue: Daily game crashes, usually 2-3 a day. First crash is usually when i go from cooking to walking/running to next task to fast. I restart the game, then on the loading screen i get a "Game Initialization error #10" pop-up that gives me a Quit and Customer Care option, neither can be selected with Joycons, i have to touch the screen, but it doesn't do anything, so i close the game manually, then it restarts (always showing me my latest cloud save). Game is also generally laggier after latest update, so i save much more often (every 2-4 mins)

Switch: Signed in, still at my house and almost immediately crashed. I didn’t even move from starting point.
jagged pasture
It's still not letting me feed the animals and they have a quest to feed it the animals with WALL-E 😟 please help
plush wigeon
This upcoming update is either making it or breaking it with the switch. The game has been unplayable, unless you want to play in increments of 20 minutes before being force quit. I read the details on the new update, looks like they might actually fix some of the things that people have been encountering since day ONE of the games release (took them long enough☠️). With all the new added features coming in the update, I think we ALL know that it will lead to us encountering problems. I think the icing on it all is that our complaints are being ignored and have not been directly addressed. They specifically made this section in the discord to report the crashes we have been experiencing, but have done NOTHING in regards of telling us how they are addressing these problems. Disappointed is an understatement.

Mine was doing that exact thing since late last night. I just restarted my switch and all was fixed
umbral jacinth
what makes it worse, is that you paid for this, some 70 usd. Back in September when the game released, I was looking forward to playing this game, it was in the same genre as Animal Crossing, and my mother and I love animal crossing. I held off to see how well the game was running on the switch due to a youtuber's suggestion. I would still like to play this, but after 7 months of the developer not giving a rat's behind to the switch players, I will probably never buy this game at all. Seriously, other game developers will give hot fixes to their games outside of major updates. Why do we have to wait for the major ones, hope that the problems are fixed, then get disappointed when they are not?

I will try that and see if it fixes
I want to reset my switch I didn't work 😟
serene vigil
Platform: Switch
Issue: at least one big crash where it say error and closes the game. But at least three to four freezes. That force me to manually shut out of the game.
Anytime I Do a edit to place furniture or move around it freezes with the diamond icon doing circles and lights flash. Which for me causes headaches 😅
Most of the memories I pick up I have to force close my game as it freezes with the picture up.
The memory freeze has been since day one.
Love the fact we are getting updates, and that I get to be apart of early gameplay but some of the bugs suck 😅
jagged pasture
