Oh yeah another side note... I don't understand the buzz system, and I'm not sure if you've done away with it since it doesn't appear on the screen anymore?

But it seems to me that the media is strangely inconsequential now. I had a TV show for several weeks and only got 53 new fans from it. I see no point in having media except to advance my promotions levels. I don't want to spend millions of yen to get 53 new fans when I already have 100,000+... 

Unless it is adding buzz and buzz brings in a ton of new fans? I'm not really sure haha. But personally I'd either make it so you get a larger amount of new fans from media or make it clear how many fans buzz is adding.

I also don't understand the new cafe system well, if you hover over the cafe it says something like "1,000 new fans per idol per shift" but I didn't notice my fan count going up any more than ~20 per day. I'm not sure if this is a glitch, or if my current fans are moving to "biasing" that idol (I don't know the J-pop word for bias sorry!)

Buzz got pretty pointless after we changed the way you get new fans, so yeah I'm slowly removing it

"per shift" means the fans are added when the idol finishes working at the cafe. If you manually removed her or she stopped because of low stamina, then she gets only part of the fans (e.g. if she stopped at half of the shift, she gets 500 fans instead of 1000)

(1 edit)

Ahh does the shift last several in-game days? That'd make more sense. It'd be helpful if you add some way to tell which idols are in the cafe, like the little bubble with their face on it. 

EDIT: My bad, totally didn't realize I had to click "auto" for idols to start working! 

There should be bubbles like in other rooms, if there are no bubbles then it means that these girls are just random staffers, not your idols. You still get money from cafes with no idols but no new fans. Try drag and dropping an idol into a cafe

I agree with Mintygum...  Without buzz, media and most business proposals seem kinda pointless.  They don't get you the fans nor the fame that are worth the expenditure of your idol's physical stamina.

Buzz is a real world thing, and the game seems kinda incomplete without it.
