on one hand, there being like,,, very little effort put into the beach party is dumb as hell (no cutscene, only one outfit change, just more dialogue ping pong) but also if they had done more, locking it behind the bulletin board would also be dumb as hell. this is what i mean when i say they can't for the life of them balance the effort-reward scale of it.
players who sat through all that grinding Should get a cute little cutscene and more outfit changes but also there's so little in the game that putting it behind a tedious, grindy act of hell is rude as fuck. if there was More to the game then i don't think anyone would particularly mind if certain things were locked up, but there isn't! there's not enough in the base game to justify locking a shit ton of players out of that kind of content
the board is meant to be an optional challenge for end game players And all the rewards are supposed to be available at a later time, so they literally can't go crazy with the rewards. but the time put into it is so laughably grindy and padded that everyone who does it feels cheated. devs....... i will pay for the entire team to take a course on game balance </3
