New Game Plus question

[casualoblivion]

I just started a NG+ run to get the rest of the achievements, but gourmet rank doesn’t seem to have applied. I should have +1250hp on each character and it hasn’t registered.

That doesnt look to be one of the things that carries over.

[casualoblivion]

It doesn’t seem like NG+ carries over the bonus for either Gourmet Rank or Character connections, and since those are already maxed out you can’t get them for the new game

[Reitschuster]

If it doesn't carry over while you're maxed out, it's probably not how things should be. I'd submit it into troubleshooting if I were you.

I just did a quick test in version 1.1.2 and Van also has the exact same stats whether it's a fresh savefile or after inheriting anything Notebook related.

The Complete Guide book mentions that you won't be able to receive Achievement, Connect Stages, etc. rewards again, which makes sense, but as it is the stat boosts aren't being carried over.
