Having threads where suggestions can't be challenged by the people who disagree just turn into echochambers. And if changes are made based on these echochambers, the results will only benefit a small group of people while others are left disappointed. If you don't want discussion, as it clearly seems so, maybe posting on a public forum is not the right way to deliver the feedback.
My response was totally on topic. You made a suggestion and I told you why it wouldn't work, in my opinion. Instead of answering to these points, you got offended and started accusing me of something I never claimed. I never said I'm against your abuse RP, on the contrary, go for it. I have no desire to change your mind about Astarion either. You can headcanon whatever you want. But it's your responsibility to make your headcanon work like everyone else does. Use the neutral faces or mods like everyone else, find a perspective how they fit in your toxic narrative.
The compromise was already made, it was Patch 7.
Agreed. The faces are neutral enough to suit many RPs, even toxic ones. There are a mixture of expressions.
Plenty of us have offered suggestions. To then be told we're both "offering no suggestions" and "offering too many and in bad faith" is a bit dizzying. Again, Mugara has not posted before. To accuse them of spamming the thread makes no sense. Since suggestions for a compromise seem to be ignored and intentionally not read, I'll state some more clearly, so they are not missed, and add some new ones.
1.) Allow the devs to work on other, technical things. There are plenty of kiss mods if the ones you have done suit you at this point. Going back and forth like that is a bit much.
2.) add a toggle for disposition at the very start of the game (many games do this) such as timid/fearful, happy/prideful, stoic/mystic. So we're allowed to choose how we react to the game at large. Giving it to one small thing for something so niche as wanting to RP non-con isn't fair.
3.) No "compromise". No other companion fan base is asking for such a thing. The faces were not mocapped specifically for that scene. Stating your preferences as the one true narrative is not correct.
By and large, this topic is repetitive. But that is not one sides doing. At this point I think most of us are just ready to move on.
