Guys! Am I not the only one here who is confused about Male Characters from the Collab having Presents/Gifts for us but we can't give them any to Max their Affection but Female Characters? Cause only to the Female Characters we can give our Gifts so they could give us their own
You can use them in your party, that also raises affection.

Gameplay-wise, I'm also confused as to the game's implementation of monster girls. Why do they all share the same affinity score for recruitment purposes? Is that a gameplay simplification? Similarly, are you just fighting the same one/s over and over until they join? Or is there some kind of hive mind thing I'm not aware of? The temple NPCs made it a point to explain that each monster girl's affinity score is shared with all of them, but didn't really go into detail as to why that's a thing. I assume it's just gameplay simplification for the same reason eating these enemies whole doesn't lower my affinity, but I'm curious if it's ever brought up whatsoever.
I assume the shared affinity is just to help the player. Though in the case of the Apoptosis and maybe a few other enemies, you could say they do have a hive mind.

Unsolicited update on my mostly blind Paradox run, at roughly ~60 hours
Without spoiling anything some quick notes/answers to what you were wondering:

1) Monsters sharing affinity is strictly gameplay. I think it's ripping off some other monster collector games (SMT??).

2) You may as well spend money whenever you want to. There's some easy enough tricks to generate oodles of money so you'll never really be stuck by not having money but you might potentially be stuck by not having good gear.

3) You should definitely swap out Lime. The game has so many little interactions and even the most generic monsters get at least one or two. I know the natural instinct is always to use the main characters but I feel like you are missing out on a lot of the fun of the game that way.

4) The plot roughly follows the original VN but the moment to moment segments are all very twisted and weird (most obviously, humans and monster girls did not really get along at all except with rare exceptions and in the post game). The original VN was a good story, maybe not terribly special but much higher quality than I would expect from an h-game. Paradox's writing is incredible - it isn't perfect, mind you, but it is deeply engaging and fun to read throughout.
