NPC friendship benefits

[Ksmiz16]

Hello everyone! I am new here love the game just like you guys. Beyond adding different festivals to the game I had a idea (sorry if it has been suggested)

rough title is friendship benefits. Essentially I want a reason to friend people in town other than to marry. So what I was thinking is that as you gain friendship with someone you get a bonus. Examples as followed:

peire- as you raise friendship he gives you a slight discount on seeds or crops sell a little higher
Clint- tool upgrades are less and materials sell for more
Willy- shop items cheaper and fish sell for more
Linus-picks forageables or tells you where bubbles are

these are a few ideas and it can be on a scale of hearts which increases or adds a benefit. Other NPC bonus can be something else, ideas can be added if you like. This Will entice people to build friendships and gain a benifit.

You already gain benefits from befrieding almost every non-marriegable NPC:

• You get access to their private rooms.
• You get some cooking recipes.
• Occassionally they send you stuff they like.

Especially the last one may be useful, for completing the CC earlier or to save you some time.

oh I know but the stuff can be kinda dull and not worth it. I don’t cook (which I know is dumb) and idc about the rooms. I think expanding upon it could useful and making it better

I agree with you. Like Demetrius keeps sending me trash like nautilus shells... I would like it if they updated it a bit more.

Agreed. I was aiming for a “skill” like speech craft but not make it a physical skill but to benefit those who make friends with people. I think it could make speed runs different as befriending peire can increase crop prices and lower seed costs etc. I think it would be cool to expand upon friendship gifts
