If you want to build up points with NPCs in Code Vein, you’ll need to pick out their favorite gifts. Each gift gives a different amount of points depending on the character. Some NPCs might love a 35mm reel, while others prefer organic soap, or Geisha Noodles. There are a whole lot of gifts to give, and if you want to get those +5 point bonuses instead of a weak +1, these are the gifts you’ll want to give.
In Code Vein, you always have an NPC assistant around to help you. Supporting that helper makes the game’s many boss battles much, much easier — if you’re ever struggling against a boss fight, I recommend grabbing skills to protect you (and your helper) from elemental attacks, or any kind of buff. Keeping your secondary helper alive makes every fight easier.
