Feature additions and improvements

1. Addition of a difficulty selection feature for additional playthroughs.

• We have added an Enhance Enemy Difficulty During Replay option to the Game Settings.
• This setting is enabled by default.
• When you replay the game using your save data, enemies will be stronger and you will earn more Haze when defeating them; however, turning this setting off will restore enemies to their original strength and Haze drops to those of the first playthrough.

2. Addition of an Affinity display and adjustments to the mechanic; additions of Trade and Gift features.

2-1: We added a UI that displays your Affinity with your Partner.

• You can check your Affinity in the Change Partner and Gift screens at a Mistletoe.
• For some Partners, the Affinity is hidden at the start, but it will become visible once you reach the point in the story where you can give them gifts.
• Affinity is divided into three categories: Exploration, Story, and Gifts, each with their own maximum limit. To reach 100% Affinity, you must raise all three categories to their maximum limits.
• Exploration Affinity increases by adventuring with your partners and defeating enemies. Affinity increases more slowly when defeating enemies weaker than the player’s level.
• Story Affinity increases by completing Quests received from your partners and advancing each of their individual episodes. Lou gives no quests; her Story Affinity increases by progressing through the main story.
• Gift Affinity increases by giving your partners food or valuables.

• We adjusted the Gifting feature by increasing the amount of affinity gained when giving Favorite and Loved items.
• We have increased the amount of Affinity gained when defeating enemies in the field.
• We have eased Affinity drop reductions when defeating enemies weaker than the player.

※We have adjusted Affinity drops so that defeating enemies that appear in the main story starting from Luna Rapacis and enemies that appear in second playthroughs or later will increase Affinity by a fixed amount, even if the enemies are significantly weaker than the player. The adjustments to enemies that appear in additional playthroughs are only effective when the Enhance Enemy Difficulty During Replay feature is turned on.

2-3：In the past Free Exploration Era, we made it possible to trade and give gifts to Noah.

• You can trade or give gifts by talking to Noah in Past MagMell. Your trade inventory is shared with Noah in the Present.
