[quote=RagnarokCzD]Example: Lets say for Gale preferences are: Gender: Female ... Races: Human / Elf / Half-Elf ...
If you fit both his preferences > first flirt ... he should be flattered, and welcoming your attitude.
If you fit one of his preferences > first flirt ... he should be kinda reserved, but friendly and opened to that option.
If you DONT fit your preferences > first flirt ... he should be surprised with your attitude and admit he never even thought about this. laugh

That way characters would have preferences > therefore they would seem a little deeper.
Yet nobody will be as you said "forced to play a gender (and i would add or race) they dont like just for the romance". Thefore in my eyes, everybody should be happy!

To add to this, perhaps companions should only initiate flirting if you match their preferences. Otherwise, the player would need to initiate flirting. This would also help address the oddity where ~every companion asks you for sex on the same night. With this method, only 1 or 2 companions would directly ask you for sex; you'd have to ask the other ones.

And this.

This forum would really need an upwote, downwote button smile
