Friendship: Difference between revisions
Added a history section to document changes to friendship over time. People hadn't started studying friendship in detail on December 10th, but the changes on that date can be extrapolated based on data that was collected before the date, as well as an official update log from that day that says "adjusted the game balance".
(We finally understand how individual points of friendship work! Added a list of friendship-increasing methods with numbers, and a strategy section.) |
