Given this "I love AA abusive, please give us more abuse" was not really a talking point until patch 6, it seems disingenuous.
I can, at least in my case, go on record saying my posts here talking about my interest in that storyline happened before that patch.
I don't even see people saying others are "enjoying AA the wrong way".
That is the implication/takeaway when you're assumed to be an impostor.
Not the case. I'm of the view this is a branching narrative. There are options to both play as enjoying AA and being fearful and loathing of him, where you can break up, and selecting kisses would be illogical, so kisses are likely not geared toward such a path. The game supports both. I do not think there is anything wrong with wanting to play the way that speaks to you.
What I find wrong is trying to artificially inflate the number of people asking for something by pretending to like something that they don't truly, just to 'own the AA fans'. Again, I will not say that is what's happening here. But, given no one exists in a vacuum, I also won't pretend that no one does that, and that this poster doesn't comes from an environment where many of these disingenuous posters gather.
It's a double edged sword. But I have no issue taking OP at face value, and just engage with their request, which I disagree with, unless we want to toggle UA sad expressions as well as the other companion changes.
Patch 6 dynamic was fleeting. And does not seem to align with what Larian wanted to put out, otherwise they would see no room for improvement. This patch was always going to happen. Seeing as other companion faces are going to be fixed. Larian is simply realigning their vision and I appreciate that.
At the end of the day, the patch has not even been released, and this feels like a knee jerk reaction. I will not presume why or where that is coming from. But at face value, that's what it is.
