Harvest Moon: StH Basic Affection Notes twitch.tv/g_heinz [Updated 30 Mar 2019]

Not meant to be exhaustive, but to serve as a preliminary documentation of affection boosts related to several NPC interactions, such as introduction, conversation, and basic gifts (early forageables only for now). I may have neglected some locations (especially for the Sprites), but almost all should be covered.

NOTES

• Each character gains a set amount of affection points (AP) for the first interaction, both with and without a gift. Not every character gets additional AP for a gift intro.
• The introductory gift can be any item at all--it does not have to be a liked gift.
• There is no conversation boost available on the day of introduction.
• If you introduce yourself with a gift that the character would accept, they will take the item, and you cannot gift them again that day. If you do so with a gift the character would reject (weed, moondrop in some cases, etc.), you are still granted the "gift intro" value AND can also gift them normally.
• Conversation boost varies by location. If a character is in transit between locations ("Walking"), the AP boost is +2 (except Ronald, who gets +4). The boosts for their other locations varies.

GODDESS QUESTIONS The following characters gain +15 AP from answering the Goddess's questions in the listed way: > Positive: Dia, Bob, Nak, Kurt, Louis > Negative: Katie, Gina, Nic, Joe > Mixed: Lyla, Gwen, Tim, Flak > Unaffected: Wallace, Woody, Ronald, Parsley, Martha
