Ugh.

Agreed, lol. My latest play through, I have romanced nobody because the characters that interest me have romances that go nowhere and have no emotional investment or growth.

Like sure, sex is nice and all. But like, do you know what’s really nice? A healthy relationship where two people truly love each other and are willing to overcome life’s difficulties to remain together.

Maybe I’m the outlier here, I don’t know.

Apparently an outlier. As mentioned, I am poly but didn't need to see it in a video game. Halsin feels like tacked on fan service.

And to the queer European who's name I forget in this thread, I'm also European, this has nothing to do with European culture, nor American culture. Larian isn't American but is definitely influenced by the US, and hookup culture is quite strong in many western countries, not just Europe.

I'll leave my general argument elsewhere but Halsin just feels wrong to me.
