[quote=Michieltjuhh] [quote=Bigli] God no. I can put up with inconsistencies that I can choose to not just engage with but if they were to rewrite her to make her strictly poly it would ruin not only her but the entire game for me and probably many others considering shes one of if not the most popular romance option.
What I mean is that by removing the inconsistency from it all, they wouldn't be removing her mono romance path. They would simply make her poly/open romance path actually make sense. And by having it make sense, it also means that we get some closure as to why she'd even accept it in the first place, which we don't have right now. We still don't have to pursue it, but if her argument is - for example - "I'm fine with whatever you want so long as you don't forget about me", then I'd be 100% okay with that. Of course it needs to be more nuanced than a single line, but I hope you get my point.
To me, that's similar to choosing to spare or kill the Nightsong. We know the other path exists, and we know it's not quite as romantic (to us, anyhow) but we can avoid it entirely and it's explained why it exists.
I don't see it that way. Regardless of the path you take with her as Selune or Shar you are left with a great degree of confidence that she will not stray from that path in the future. If they rewrite her to better fit as being poly then you do not have that same degree of confidence that she would be happy with a monogamous relationship so no, that is not good enough for me. I do no want my character to have a poly relationship with Shadowheart. I do no want her to want a poly relationship while in a relationship with my character. As things stand right now there is always that thought in the back of your mind that she would eventually want to open things up and I hate that. If the game ever gets updated with some supposed definitive edition, DLC, a free patch, or what have you if that is the direction they go with her I will not be buying it and I will never buy another Larian game again. I will accept nothing less than the option to have her say she would be happy with your character, and only your character, for the rest of their lives.
