| Player, It's been blisternin' out lately, hasn't it? Wish them cattle could just wrangle themselves sometimes. Luckily, my old man's been dryin' out a whole mess of jerky to keep our spirits up, here, try some for yourself!  Jerky (3) |
Social interaction[]
Chat[]
ChatChat is a basic social interaction available at any relationship level. Chatting with Elsie once a day can increase the relationship by 1 point; subsequent chatting, on the same day, only results in the same conversation without any relationship gain.
Elsie's dialogue may change every day and every season. Elsie may also comment about certain events or missions. Higher relationship levels, including romantic involvement, also change Elsie's dialogue.
Gift[]
Gift
- Elsie can be given one gift per day. Giving the same gift every day for several days may result in diminishing rewards.
- Every giftable item in the game has a base point value when gifted. The Neutrals row of the table below only lists neutral items that give an increased reward compared to their base value.
- The quality of items gifted may affect the relationship points gained, with higher quality items giving extra points.
- Birthdays and festival days do not affect the relationship points gained. However, giving a gift on Elsie's birthday will give a unique dialogue.
