Every shop owner in Stellar Blade has three levels of affinity, and it can be increased by purchasing items from their store. The amount of affinity increased depends on the price of the items purchased, so the more expensive an item is, the more affinity is earned.

Additionally, some shop owners have stories and quests of their own in Stellar Blade, and some of these quests will only be unlocked after reaching a certain affinity level. As a side note, the shop owners will also become friends with Eve and gradually start to greet her warmly and speak to her with a casual and much friendlier tone. That doesn’t necessarily affect the gameplay, but it does add a nice touch to the game.

Some shop owners, like Kasim, who runs the Gwen Hair Salon in Stellar Blade, don’t have an affinity system.

There are three levels of affinity, and you will naturally start at level one. Once you hit level two with any shop owner, new items will be added to their shop. The items added depend on the owner, as each store has its own additions, but they're mostly cosmetics. The same thing will happen when the shop owner hits affinity level three.
