Day 39: Serenity Hill (5)

[Kimakura Utopia. Talk Room (Official)・General]

[Crimson Queen @ MBDH]
>> Makoto-chan
Wow, such a gimmick
I’m in Rendluszka right now, so I’ll go check it out

[Narutick]
The elixir that my oshi gave me… I carefully stored it away, and it spoiled…

[Lemon Fig]
You probably left it in your storage and forgot you even got it, right?

[Tsubaki Hina]
It’s okay
I know it’s easy to forget about expiration dates and best-before dates

[Mercury]
You need to use food and medicine quickly
Because food spoils quickly, I’m usually mindful of this. But good quality medicines can last up to a year
Like the expiration date on emergency rations, it’s quite common to find that they’ve expired before you realize it

[Memeko]
Announcement incoming

[Alice]
Omakase Mode implementation…? (・□・;)

[Piano Jam]
Wait, wait, I can only foresee a bleak future for this month’s date event

[Madness]
> A new feature, ‘Omakase Mode,’ will be added to the Date Event starting June 12.
> This mode differs from the conventional free mode, where players can freely act on their initiative. This mode allows players to leave the date planning to the character, making it a story mode.
> In this mode, players might even see that character’s hidden sides, which they can only see on a date!
> Omakase mode will be implemented for dates with Rylstein, Lyria, and Orca during the week on the 12th. 
> Deepen your bond with your favorite character and enjoy a special date story ♪

[Takenaka]
Fuck youuuu!!!
Last month’s date completely broke meeee!!!!

[송사리]
The sudden and obvious cash grab move…
Is it over…? (´;ω;`)

[Yoshino-san & Beppu]
It’s more like they got a taste of the money coming from the character oshi supporter crowd and started getting carried away

[Panfesta]
Exploitation… Kimakura is trying to squeeze as much as possible out of us upstanding citizens…
I won’t stand for such a tyrannical management…

[Madness]
The fact that you’re saying that means you’re ready to throw money at them

[Woona]
I have no objection to the Omakase Mode implementation itself, you know?
And I have no objection to the Date Event itself
But why did they limit one person per character monthly?

[Red Poppy]
> Deepen your bond with your favorite character and enjoy a special date story ♪
This was directed to tens of thousands of users,
But in reality, only three people can enjoy it. Or rather, one person per character…
Are they crazy?

[Elnegy]
At this point, regular players who could have been light or medium spenders should just give up
The Date Event is a god-like entertainment for whales and the wealthy

[Rinrin]
Exactly
Regular players gave up on the Date Event a long time ago
Anyone who is starting to suffer has already sold their soul to Kimakura

[Yoshio www]
Thanks to those people, Kimakura is thriving 
We should gratefully worship them. LOL

[Memeko]
I’m just going to ignore the Date Event and apply a blur filter to other details
I think Kimakura is pretty nice
I’m talking about the cash-grabbing aspect

[Makoto-chan]
There aren’t many games where the amount of money spent is so polarized

[Letima]
It’s not like you can’t get stronger or play the game unless you pay
That’s something that can be appreciated

[KUDOU-S1]
Will they release a summary video of the Omakase Date after the first event?
I wanted to experience it in VR

[Momotaro]
I don’t care about the complaints of the poor
Just gave me Dirk Omakase Date already
I’ll pay for it

[Alice]
Whoaa…

[Mercury]
A model patron supporting Kimakura!
Thank you for your service!

[Tsubaki Hina]
After the Omakase Mode is over, can we still have the usual Free Mode?
Other characters will be implemented sequentially,
I’ll be waiting for you, Giltoa-sama!

[Crimson Queen @ MBDH]
I’m sorry to interrupt all the excitement; I’ve checked the Sick Forest and have a report
(Image)
The Tree of Remembrance’s fruit is definitely purple, and it’s almost red now

[송사리]
It’s true

[Panfesta]
Wasn’t there a theory that the color changes when you report Magdalene’s discovery about Giltoa?
Whether it’s true or not, something is going to happen when the color completely changes
I’m not busy, so I might go check it out

[Mercury]
The Ladybug Shock that the veterans often talk about is related to the forest revolution event, right?
I don’t see that term in the official archive, and I still don’t know what it means

[Madness]
Ladybug Shock refers to the economic depression caused by the Sick Forest becoming inaccessible
The term itself was created by the players in the talk room. It’s no surprise that it doesn’t appear officialy

[Mercury]
I see
It’s Kimakura slang
I know the Sick Forest was inaccessible → Ladybug’s value is plummeting
Why was there so much chaos about it?

[Lotus Flower]
At that time, the World Market wasn’t implemented yet
And trading with NPCs wasn’t developed either, so it’s a struggle to make money
In that situation, light attribute materials and products were sold at a high price even if it was at guild price, 
Ladybugs were easy to obtain, making them an easy way to make money
The closure of the dark attribute field, the Sick Forest, has caused the value to plummet for both players and guilds/NPCs
This method is no longer available → Players are angry, something like that

[Rinrin]
There were also various changes in the economy, and the existing values were overturned at once
Meanwhile, there was a shortage of dark attribute materials, and the price went up
And since this was the first revolution event, the entire player base was shaken
People were shocked and questioned everything

[Bourbon]
WM wasn’t there from the beginning! 
Early Kimakura was quite a different game. Interesting 

[Mercury]
>> Lotus Flower
>> Rinrin
Thanks for explaining
So at the time, Kimakura was still perceived as a comfy/casual game
That makes sense why it was a shock

[Memeko]
The production jobs were fine because there were still some good-selling items left that weren’t affected in value
Expedition jobs that relied on material trading were miserable

[Momotaro]
When you think about it, Kimakura becoming a crazy game wasn’t entirely the players’ fault

[Panfesta]
The management undoubtedly laid the foundation 

[Makoto-chan]
The management themselves are the ones who added elements that require extraordinary mental strength like revolutions and date events

[Red Poppy]
Ah, the fruit’s color turned red again

[Itachi]
Tefa-sama looks worried

[Makoto-chan]
It’s concerning…
