Why are my parties always underperforming?
My parties keep consistently having lower ratings, and I have no idea why. I'm always excited headed into every party, especially when I have a string of decent ratings throughout the week. But it seems like every time I have a lower score, and my money isn't as high as it should be.
For context: I've completed all seven chapters and beaten the game. I've upgraded to Steel Net Gun and Tranq rifles, so a lot of the fish I catch are 3-star. I try to make party-specific dishes, even when I have less resources to enhance them. I have James and Maki in the kitchen, Kyaka and Liu in the Dining Area. All four are ranked up to 14. I tried to use Raptor in the kitchen since he makes cocktails (which was a big weakness for me), but tables always end up being dirty and that would take up too much time. So right now I have Kyoka handling beer (which I'm absolutely horrible at) and tea + getting tips, Liu cleaning tables, and I'm serving and handling wasabi, while occasionally handling cocktails.
It seems like whenever I try to make cocktails, since nobody else will, that's when things go left? I feel like I'm making them faster than I was before, but the scores keep being low on the party nights. They seem to be fine otherwise. But this pic of my Marlin Party results is an example. I hunted Marlins every day, enhanced as much as I could, yet I have lower score and lower profit.
Anyone have any suggestions?
