Thread: Anyone think they'll fix affection?

So - the cap is 100 girls, unless it's 5* then 200 girls

Were drowning currently - this is a joke

I thought the 4 and 5 star cap is at the 20th girl, not the 200th.

According to the patch notes, it is.

20, not 200.

But yeah. I read that and just thought "well that's... 'something'... a very high something..."

I've got 73 girls in my harem currently so I'm still a ways off from seeing that 100 line where the requirements for the first three stars will cap. Of the... looks like 27? Of the 27 girls that I've obtained since 2.0 hit us, 16 are still sitting at just 1 star completed and 5 are at 2 stars completed.

With Samane's 4th and 5th stars coming up, she will be the first one for which one of the new caps will be relevant for me since she's 23rd in my list. I completed 5 of the 7 girls who currently have 5 stars available but I'm stuck building affection for Noemy's 5th star (she's 11th in my list), not to mention the scene cost that it will ask for after that, and saving up something like 16.5 mil for Abrael's 5th star scene (she's 17th in my list).

Off topic: When I saw the name but hadn't scrolled down enough yet to see the picture, I kind of assumed that "Windia, the Windwanker" would be modeled after someone from Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. Medli, maybe? But, no. Not even close.

Further tweaks regarding the affection issue will come soon.

Sorry misread on the 5 starring them - but yeh 100 - whoppty frickin' do and to that 'helps'

I have 73 girls as well. I have to be selective about which ones to add affection to. I've always tried to get new girls that have come out with the events, but I'm rethinking that approach. I'd hate to get a new girl now that I actually wanted to use.

The problem is in the sunk cost. If I were to play fairly aggressively, collecting 8 times a day, from a girl that gave $1500, (pretty average), for 365 days a year, I would have gotten 4.38 million. Now, there is no way I'll see that much, but suppose I did. The cheapest cost of affection per game dollar is legendary lingerie at $417 per point. I have my 70th girl at 2 stars and to get her the third would require 10,645 affection. Some might be free, but not all will be in it's cheapest form, so I'll just use that cost. So it will cost me 4.44 million just in affection for that one. If I'm crazy about collecting, I just might recoup that in a year, but that isn't the whole cost of the upgrade.
Now I have to look at how many years it will realistically take in collections for the girl to pay for the upgrades I put on her. With cash becoming tight in the game, it becomes a poor use of resources to pay for affection and for the upgrades. You just have to decide how much a loss you want to accept.

If you think this is a good deal, let me sell you an annuity that pays back it's purchase price at twice your life expectancy.

It's the good deal in the way that girls are not banks: the main reward to update them is their upgraded poses and affections scenes.
Improved money is a nice addition.
If you're not interrested in their other poses and affections scenes, you might find yourself better not to upgrade them (unless you wanna do PvP, in which case I suppose upgrading them becomes mandatory sooner or later.

Not point upgrading affection on girls unless they are the 3 on your team. With the new rules there is a point to leveling all of them especially is there is a contest that rewards it.

It would be nice to reach 3 or 5 stars but it isn't as if you can't see the pictures on the wiki.

With the move away from using points in the arena where affection items drop pretty often leveling up affection has become a huge pile of suck.
Also being pushed to fight bosses, well I want to avoid getting girl at least until I get the 1 boss girl per level as I figure those will go to 5 star quicker and I don't want the costs to spiral completely out of control. So much for that idea unless I stick with the lowest one [I got all his girls] and even then with events he will drop, or go PvP which gets me nothing as I understand it.
