Eventually most of the village becomes pointless and since the game is no stranger to stacking buffs, I don't think it would be too much to ask for an additional daily buff from the village similar to the special drink. The way you get this is by talking to the villagers and a random one will give you the buff which changes daily. So special drink is hourly but this would be daily so stack wisely.

It could be a solution to keep people engaged in the entire village and could be locked behind an upgrade or permanent item (for the EB fans, book of shyness perhaps?!?!). To expand the idea further, achievements could be added for "receive 10, 50, 500, 1000 buffs from villagers", this would also encourage daily log in. Come to think of it the special drink could get a similar achievement but since you can drink it every hour might want to bump those numbers way up to like 20000 drinks. Who needs a liver anyway.

I really don't think this would mess with the balance too much and the increased engagement in the village and daily play towards the achievement would outweigh the additional daily reward.

For daily buffs we have the daily cps boost and fir the achivements
20k drinks is 834days without sleep
The highest time achivement is playing for 1 year

Idea I'm proposing is mainly to keep people engaged in the village. Whaaa, theres a daily cps boost? Whats one more daily in the grand scheme of things. And for the 20k, that was a bit of an exaggeration and I assumed that number would just be workshoped to be fit better but I'm sure 500 spear takes longer than a year soooo. Either way the details can be tweaked but the basic concept of promoting regular interaction with the entire village well after all quests are completed still applies.

(It takes far less than a year's time.)

500 spear takes no more than six months 🗿

Okay I'm slow but I feel like we are getting hung up on the trivial parts of the idea. Drop the suggested numbers way down

Achievement isn't really the important part, we'll just waive - ah slowoah

Wait...so you're saying from the moment you download the game you can get to 500 spear in 6 months? I believe you, I'm most likely not the optimal player.

@ Dingle: I doubt that, heh BrunHehe
I was thinking it takes 3-6 months from the time they decide to start Ninja (the later they wait, the shorter time)
but maybe they know something I don't, I'll just wait for them

#

(anyway)
Regarding the original idea, maybe some flavor text would be good for the villagers too, to keep things interesting
just more work, is all
