changedRemilia ScarlettShe is a vampire and has the ability to manipulate her destiny. While I think the "bat system," "bloodsucking" and "manipulation" do a good job of reflecting her setting, race and abilities, I found an unhealthy problem with the game's progression. This game is essentially a game where the player with the most stores and the most shopping dollars is supposed to be the strongest, but from the design stage Remilia goes against those rules. For me, I had decided that if she could go on a rampage at the end of the game, it would be no problem, so I put a cap on her bloodsucking and so on, reducing her performance in the early-mid game. However, once the game was released and I saw how the actual players played, I was able to actively set her up early on with 5x buys, etc. to make the area all yours. I've found that the play of the game can be very incompatible with Remilia. Taking the same area increases the shopping fee, which makes Remilia's bloodsucking more powerful, which makes Remilia too much of a presence in the early-mid game. Also, despite buying five times as much, Remilia gets paid for stopping at that store. I decided that this was not the right way to play the game. So, we will make bloodsucking not dependent on shopping fees, but dependent on store prices. Bloodsucking is a plus from areas where the owner only has one store, but otherwise the shopping fee outweighs it. Also, the rate at which bloodsucking appears is lowered due to manipulation and the incoming messengers.

Koimeiji Koishi

It's harder to get mercy in the middle of the game and easier to get a day's walk.

Koishi has a higher time presence in the middle of the game compared to other characters, so make the adjustment.

Other

A list of bills has been added to the pre-start menu. It's a temporary fix and we'll be improving it in the future. Also, battle history and statistics are now in one tab.
