Not getting relationship hearts

[Meomie]

I decided to start a fresh game for the release of 1.1. I noticed that I am not getting any relationship hearts for talking, giving gifts, attending events or for quest completion. The very first indication of which is completing the home sweet home quest which should give you a heart for Dinda and Joko. I have only gotten a heart for giving a gift on the townies birthday. I restarted twice and its the same.

I loaded up my old save and it is still working fine. I am not sure if its a bug or not. I didn't see anything in the updates about it. Anyone know whats going on or how to fix it?

I am also encountering this. I usually like to talk to everyone at festivals to add to hearts, but am getting nothing. Weird.

wiki says you get 35 friendship points if you talk to someone, and need around 300 for the first "heart" (its half a heart)

that said, if you have talked to them 9 times in a row (festivals can give 0-85 points depending on if you have talked to them befor or whatever) and still got no heart by just talking, then its a bug

Oh, so I think I was confused because I show no indication of a relationship progression via GUI notice. So I guess I am to assume that talking to each person, with no indication, will eventually yield a heart.

Thanks!

Hummm..... could be. I didn't realized it changed from the last time I played. Maybe the quest just gives points now and not the full heart. I will have to do some more testing. Thanks

I'm giving Semeru my pink diamonds left and right and he's not budging above 8 hearts. Interestingly enough, I noticed my fish and bug ponds are also not breeding anymore timer wise. Hoping for a fix for this soonish.

the best way i checked is i gave joko coffee on day 4 of spring, gifted it twice as its his birthday and he jumped to 3 hearts so its working for me

After testing today you ended up being exactly right. Relationship gain is much slower with the new point system. I honestly prefer it this way as I thought the amount of hearts gained when I last played was a bit fast. I appreciate your help. Thank you.
