I'm be honest as someone who used to romance AA Patch 6's kisses turned me right off which kind of bums me out. I enjoyed AA (As a messy relationship but yes) but those weird kisses turned me right off. Even with the better expressions the kisses are so overly extra it's a turn off.
And yeah the forced horror on Tav's face was a big part of that. LIke I don't need my PC looking horrified when they were happily involved every other time.
(That and I'm be frank I don't think Larian has enough skill to do a abusive plot involving the player as a victim the way it deserves frankly.)
