    I didn't read all the posts, which might be evident by my question, but right now the only thing we can buy multiples of are the Kwik-E-Marts to boost consumerism? I only have 3 1/2 stars, and I would love to boost my rating. Is there anything else that I don't have to buy with donuts? I've only been playing for two months, and I don't have some of the retired pieces that might've worked. If all I can do is buy KEMs, than I hope the game makers come up with... something. Anything. Pretty please?

    That's correct.

    I think it makes sense that they (mostly) boost gluttony, since they're food. I don't expect restaurants to boost consumerism, and they're basically tiny mobile restaurants. I'm totally okay with this, since the food carts are why I have five stars for gluttony. I just think something similar for consumerism would be ideal. Advertisements or shopping carts would be my personal choice, but anything the devs wanted to do would be great, so long as it was a small-ish decoration for in-game cash.
    True that!

    Maybe they should add small venders that sell souvenirs to boost consumerism.

    They could even add a consumerism graveyard for all those shoppers who shopped til they dropped.

    That would totally work! Especially on squidport, I think. It would be neat if they had a little animation.

    That's correct.

    Well... darn. I'd call that poor planning, wouldn't you? Or maybe brilliant planning... because once they release something we're all gonna want it. :?

    Little bit. So easy to correct with a simple decoration, though. The righteousness decoration doesn't show up until level 20-something, and the khlav kalash carts just showed up a level or two ago, so they've fixed this sort of issue before. This is just the last one that I think badly needs fixing.

    Training Walls are unlocked at Level 33

    What level do you think those two should be available at

    Did they fix that or does it still show the error message for her and Brandine

    Ah, I thought it was level 28 or something, but my level outpaced my quests.

    I think it's fine to have them available when they are, that wasn't really what I was saying. I was saying that it took time for them to fill the need for righteousness and gluttony decorations. Now we need one for consumerism.

    Same here and oh ok my bad then

    I think they need to take a break from vanity decorations for consumerism at least for one update

    Yes, exactly.



    For level 40 I only want two things: the Stonecutters and non-premium billboards/similar advertising deco that will increase consumerism. That would be my perfect update. No vanity items or shrubbery needed.

    Exactly oh and I liked that level 39 was the one of the few out of the recent updates to not include a bar or something for gluttony

    I now have the pet shop and three extra Kwik-e-marts, which bumped me up to 4.5 stars. *sigh*
