I can see how this sucks for a lot of players but im actualy happy i can just farm a totaly normal week get tons of affection items, keep leveling my units... as a player who plays since 3 months whos maxin out the last levels on his units befor trying for awakening i feel pretty well with it, was very stressfull to try to do everything at once with events ongoing. And who knows... maybe we get a big event after such a long break?
Or not. We will see.
