Definitely looking for Super Whales
This system is terrible. Just look at the leader board for 'girls'. I'm at something like 42,000th place on it with 0 girl drops. I remember being at roughly that same place with 2 girl drops that week. This leader board alone tells you that the number of girl drops have crashed.
I have only had one girl come out since the system come out, and that was after working on Ninja Spy for a week. (I was still missing one from him). Since then nothing. And I don't let the energy overrun for the Troll fights.
They completely messed up the system. To keep people playing they need to have some sort of reward, some sort of progress, some sort of something. But right now doing boss fights to get girls seems to be pointless. Unless you're really lucky and get a 100% shard drop.
On Bremen I get maybe one shard drop day. After 48 fights, one shard drop? Give me a break. I'll be done with the story by the time I get the first girl from Bremen with the new system.
This isn't really a constant progression system, its a more punishing random number system than before.
The harem system is suppose to be a good steady flow of income. Common girls are the best ones in it, especially the 5 star common girls. Most people seem to run with the 5 star common girls in their orgy squad, but now it seems like Kinkoid has made them not so common, and very hard to get. The rare girls (except for 1) are all 3 star, so don't show up in people's squads. The Epic girls are very expensive to upgrade, and not worth putting in the squad till their 3rd star.
So basically Kinkoid has nerfed the ability to grow your economy.
1. They made shard drops stop paying out cash, which means there's less money to upgrade your girls
2. Made the common girls much harder to get
I use to play the lower bosses when they had girls that dropped, but now that this shard system is in place, I won't waste my time, because I know I'm not going to get rewarded for it. The girls will be long gone by the time I get the shards needed, and the money needed to play the game is best earned by the higher end bosses.
Affection System is horrible
Even since they claimed the new system would make things easier it's been the opposite. The current Epic event (3/20) I have a little over 2 1/2 days left and so far only have 20 affection points. I typically play when I get up, lunch time, when I get home, and before bed. rarely is my power full 20/20 so without wasting kanban at this rate there is no way I'll unlock any of the girls which means I'll have yet another partial unlock waiting to be aquired. Even with the current world map quest battling Karole, my best girl is at only around 25 affection and with the exception of event I always fight karole.
