Okay, this is a ton of text, but, am I reading this right? She actually said she wants to make the players feel bad? She wants to introduce abusive situations into video games? That's so disheartening to think that someone would be put in charge of an aspect of a game that means so much to so many people, and then gleefully brag about making it less pleasant. To what end?
Mx. Welch, if you're somehow reading this, I respectfully think you've woefully misinterpreted what players want in a video game romance, particularly when it comes to Baldur's Gate. We're not asking for our every whim to be met. We're simply asking for a fun experience where our characters are allowed to act and react in ways that make sense.
If I am remembering correctly in earlier threads she comes from a fanfic background ?
I think Fanfiction ought to just be used as an outlet rather than including peoples fanfic into a game if she went in on the Ascended is bad fanfic pool thinking the majority want this I'd say she's better looking outside of the twitter fanfic cesspool because abuse stories ain't that popular in real life what is popular in fanfic is the enemies to lovers trope not vice versa.
a game is supposed to be an escape point where you should be having fun .
