So hey, just wanted to discuss how the game has changed. I remember people making a lot of threads being angry about the emphasis on hunts and parties and Item Collection. A cornerstone of the frustration was that previously the game was predominately PvP so items and dorm mates were purchased for strength gains to fight. So naturally PvP people said if We're fighting less why the need to collect items? I think it's cool that we've actually answered that question as users. A big thing on here now is item trading. With bentos, chibis, and mcs items as forms of currency. While I guess that's not the *intended* purpose of items I think it gives them value and at least for me a motive for hunt completion TLDR: items are a store of value, unit of value, and medium of exchange
tbh i dont even care about the value of items the majority of the time. i just like to collect shit in games.
