Thread: This game is getting worse and not better

Yeah the girl upgrading process is just crazy. I don't feel like I make any progress for weeks, it's hard to stay interested. I feel like soon my time is going to come where I don't even bother logging in...kind of sad but I'm almost through the story and that's when I quit before.

My problem with the upgrading is that I'm literally getting girls faster than I can upgrade them. I'm not sending a dime either. I was close to catching up then this new update tanked it. Now I'm way behind again. I haven't started trying to get girls to 5 star because I have a bunch of 3 stars left. It's more beneficial to max them out first, but I can't catch up.

Basically you get 2 weeks a month of lull to grind before getting new girls in an event. The events kill the cash flow because you have to fight low bosses to get the event girls. Maybe at max level it will be better, but it will take weeks to max them out and then get back the money lost. Finalmecia starts at half what she was paying. It discourages me from playing when I feel like it's going to be impossible to ever catch up. I realize I'm still making progress because I am maxing out girls which gives me more money, but I hate that endless grind feeling.

that actually is a common misconception as affection and upgrade cost increases with increasing number of girls as well (well unless you have 100+ girls), to simply get even - moneywise - with what you have to spend to upgrade a girl it takes month-years (depending on affection level and girl), unless you have 100 girls you dont actually speed up the upgrading process for said reasons as a single girl does not add much towards your total income (~1.3k/h, which translates to maybe 13k/day if you are pretty active - 390k/month, 4.7kk/year - that is not even what you paid for 10k affection+upgrade costs)
maybe you do speed it up, but if you do it is literally not noticeable

So - I know have all farmable girls ....

I really don't know if I'll carry on with game as levelling them all now seems about as fun as tooth extraction

since they changed affection this game has become a grind to catch up game. before 2.0 you literally could upgrade every girl to max as soon as you got them and the limiting factor where the levels as XP items were low value. with 2.0 I think there was a single moment were I had everything max'd, but since they throw out 5 star girls frequently it is impossible as I am barely able to keep up with all new and revival events - I basically stack up affection items inbetween events and most of it will be gone with the next event so I can upgrade like one girl from 3-4 or 4-5

I don't mind the grind so much. Every game I've ever quit that had this collecting mechanic was because the events came so fast that it became impossible to keep up. I'd advise admin to slow them down. We don't need a full 2 week event every month or these extra week long events.

Once the player base starts to burn out the game quickly dies. Since 2.0 that feeling of burn out began creeping in pretty quickly.

Slow down the frequency of events slightly and it will strengthen the game. The players need to feel like they are accomplishing something and right now it doesn't feel that way. I can't upgrade my girls fast enough.

lol some guys are complaining that they have too many girls to keep up the upgrades and some are complaining that the girls are not dropping from the bosses and the drop rate should go up.
slowing down the frequency of events and decreasing drop rate would worsen the playing experience since getting girls is part of game progress. so less girl drop mean less feeling of "accomplishment" from playing the game.
better alternative would be to decrease the cost of girl upgrades

I remember when people were complaining there weren't enough events. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

Personally, I like the "revival events", it allows those of us who weren't playing from the beginning a chance to catch up on some of the out of circulation Haremettes. Sure, it takes a bit longer to level the girls (and their affection) up, but it really does seem to be a bit better than pre-HH 2.0, overall.

I don't mind the drop rate, that's par for the course. I would like a breather between events because you lose a huge amount of money during events from having to fight early bosses for event girls. I would be fine with a month where there was only a revival event or even a no event month. Not often, just every once in a while.

I enjoyed this game before 2.0 because it was relatively easy to upgrade girls and unlock their full scenes. Now it's super hard. I don't mind it being harder, but currently it's a bit ridiculous.
