I'll try to summarize the entire contents of the topic:
1)All images and texts that Larian during the development of Original Sin maded, practically promised that game will have romance.
2)In a recent video chat, (conveniently, short time before the release) it was denied.
3)We are angry and we want what was promised!
The problem is not what it means "Original Sin" or whether the game should have a romance. Larian should not promise what did not plan to comply!
My interpretation is more...
1) The title and some images shown during development are suggestive of the potential for romance in the game. More substantially, some statements were made in updates and a press article that declared there would be romance in the game (if romance is taken to mean the ability to have an interactive relationship between the protagonists that may end up as lovers according to player choices).
2) In a recent video chat a confusing and potentially/seemingly contradictory statement was made that casts this in doubt.
3) Some people are concerned and would like clarification.
An interesting thread resulted but that's all so far...
