That's the sense I'm getting. In case it helps work out what's working and what's not, with respect to Gale ...


In the Weave scene, I selected the "it feels like a moment for intimacy" option, but then none of the choices seemed appealing, so I selected the option that said something like "step back, this seems like a bad idea". He then fessed up to his chestal problem before the post-grove party and at the party he just said something like "don't waste your time with me" and I didn't have options to speak with him further at all. I'm now at Last Light, a certain messenger having caught up with him and asked him to take on a responsibility. And not a sniff of romance from him, or any further options to flirt.

I get the sense that some of the romance problems are manifesting later in the game for people, so I'll watch out for them.

I cut off that scene with Gale earlier than that (I selected the option you did not and ended it there) and while Gale himself has been behaving (I�m about where you are I think) at the party I had the option to go to sleep thinking of Gale, so I don�t think the *game* knows I noped out when things looked like they were turning more than friendly. Which is another reason I suspect an incorrectly set flag is causing some of these issues. Perhaps accepting that scene sets a flag but ditching that scene with Gale early when things look heated doesn�t unset the flag.
