Someone tell me a way to grind affinity to heart level because the internet can't make up it's mind. I'm at the snow area before sword valley.

gifts, battling together (chain attacks, helping them up, smth else I don't remember), and accepting quests with the right person in tow
also the right choice in heart to hearts
I don't remember which one is the best exactly but I'm betting gifts.
but rly I wouldn't worry about it because if you wanna craft gems later it's best to have some at low affinity

attack something you're always going to miss but can tank the damage

I think there are some mobs in the eryth sea where i did that and spammed b for the affinity friendship actions

Ice area looks like a piece of poo poo, between that and prison island they're gunning for worst looking RPG area ever, hell Skies of Arcadia looked better texturewise than those two levels and that was a Dreamcast RPG.

How badly overleveled would someone be if they did 100% of side quests? I stopped doing them like halfway through the game and was barely back down to the expected level when I hit the endgame.

I did like every quest as soon as I could and made it like half the way through the game before I got so burnt out on it I just put it away and haven't touched it since.

you will lose almost nothing by not doing them. maybe look up the ones that give you extra skill trees but those arent that necessary

I don't have one and I looked and they seem to be impossible to find now in my area.

The Wii U should just let you use the pro controller as a classic controller in Wii mode but noooo that would make sense.

Is this game meant to feel like an MMO but kinda not?

I mean it's fun so far but exploring and the quests and stuff feel more like an MMO than other games I've played.

It does play like an MMO in that aspect and some areas are just plain huge. Equip Quickstep gems to make you walk faster if you're dead set on finding all the secret areas.

For the item collecting easiest way is to save when the item orbs spawn and then save and reload and they should spawn after a minute or so. And yes some collection quests are plain annoying. People will say you don't need to do them, but why put things in a game if people are not meant to do them?
