Project Gorgon Hang Out Guide: How It Works
Hang Out in Project Gorgon is a passive Favor system that builds your relationship with an NPC while you are logged out. Once you choose a Hang Out activity, it continues automatically every time you log off until you change it. It is one of the easiest long term ways to gain Favor without constantly farming gifts.
If you care about storage, better sell prices, training unlocks, or pushing toward higher relationship tiers, Hang Out is important.
What Hang Out Does
Most NPCs allow you to Hang Out with them once you reach Neutral.
When you select Hang Out:
It activates when you log off
You gain Favor over time
You may receive small themed rewards
You do not need to reactivate it every session. The last selected Hang Out stays active until you switch it.
How To Start Hang Out
To activate Hang Out:
Speak to the NPC
Choose the Hang Out option
Select one of the available activities
That is all you need to do. It runs automatically while offline.
How Much Favor Hang Out Gives
Hang Out gives steady, passive Favor.
It is slower than heavy gifting, but it costs nothing and requires no farming. Over time, it adds up significantly.
It works best for:
NPCs you plan to invest in long term
NPCs with expensive gift preferences
Storage or merchant NPCs
Think of Hang Out as passive Favor income.
When Hang Out Is Most Useful
Hang Out is strongest when:
Logging off overnight
Logging off for work or school
Slowly building multiple NPC relationships
Saving Councils
It is not the fastest way to rush Soul Mates, but it reduces gift costs long term.
Hang Out And Favor Tiers
Favor tiers progress like this:
Neutral
Comfortable
Friends
Close Friends
Best Friends
Like Family
Soul Mates
Hang Out helps push you through these tiers without constant gifting.
Higher tiers unlock:
Larger money pools
Better selling prices
Storage access
Unique skills and recipes
Can You Hang Out With Multiple NPCs
No.
Only one Hang Out can be active at a time per character. The last NPC you selected is the one that gains Favor while you are offline.
Switching NPCs replaces the previous Hang Out.
Does Logging In Cancel It
No.
Hang Out progress accumulates whenever you are logged out. Logging in does not reset it. It simply pauses until you log out again.
Smart Hang Out Strategy
Before logging off:
Make sure a Hang Out is active
Prioritize storage NPCs early
Use it on merchants you sell to often
Pair it with light gifting for faster progress
Over weeks of play, this system saves a large amount of Favor farming.
Final Thoughts
Hang Out is a quiet but powerful system in Project Gorgon. It rewards consistency instead of grinding.
Always set a Hang Out before logging off. It is free Favor that compounds over time.
