Bro do you know what I'd fucking give to move to a new town and someone immediately offers me a free house and says "yeah just pay me back eventually, you can come work in my store if you want, pick your own hours. I'll also do renovations on the house but yea it's your house, no rent, no interest" like dont you realize how utopian that is. And its implied he does this for everyone in the town? Tom nook is so generous he is a hero. You wish rich people could be like that irl
This right here is exactly why I’ve always loved Tom Nook.
As someone who was aware from an early age just how expensive living was in real life, I really appreciated the almost never-ending generosity of his character. It’s even right there in the canon that Tom Nook became so disheartened by how greedy and unfair some people in the city were that when he made it big himself, he wanted to do things differently.
