Score a gift to a character from taste, repeats, birthdays and dislikes

Giving gifts is the quickest way to win someone over, which is why players will try to give the same favourite thing every day. This entry decides how many points a gift is worth, what repeats do, what a birthday changes, and why a disliked gift should never be cheap to repeat.

Why this works

A reward that stays the same every time is a chore, so players repeat it. Letting the value shrink makes variety the better choice, while a bad gift never softening means a mistake stays a mistake and cannot be wiped out by sheer repetition.

When not to use it

Skip it when a gift is a single story moment, such as a farewell present, where a fixed scripted reaction is better. Also skip it in a short game with one companion, where fading rewards only feels stingy.
