To add to this, he also has no reaction if you make a statue of him. He hasn't seen himself in 200 years and misses "petty vanity", come on! It's such a glaring omission when Larian was the ones to put in ways to create art of your companions in the first place.
We already have recorded lines from AA: how he feels when he sees himself in a mirror for the first time. It would have been great to add this same line to his Spawn route when he sees himself as a statue or on that painting you can make for him. You don't need to record any new lines, they already exist!
Honestly, I agree. They hyped it up and got my hopes up. I was very disappointed by the inequality when patch 6 came out. I hoped that they were planning to even it out in upcoming patches so I didn't complain, but then that didn't happen in patch 7 at all. :\
Yeah, for me, personally, it isn't really about kisses anymore as much as about equality and fairness.
I also think that since Neil already worked so hard, it would be such a waste of his work and talent to leave these kisses half-bugged and not being able to get triggered. This content deserves to get officially completed, unbugged and properly added to the game. With good camera angles.
And yes, this is exactly the reason why I didn't complain either. I was sure this issue would get fixed in Patch 7.
