It was on the YouTube video that initially leaked the Karlach/spawn kiss. I can link it if you'd like!
I am aware of the kiss. I am wondering where you got the double standard from as I have never seen anyone say the kiss was good for spawn act 2 Astarion and not good for AA. All I’ve ever seen was the exact opposite. That people found the kiss odd for act2 and perfect for AA hence larian added it for AA specifically.
I’m not saying *you* want new kisses specifically but in general. this conversation has shifted to discuss changes to do with AA only like adding a hug or kiss in the epilogue. While UA is still lacking so much comparatively. In general I think both routes have great romances already and I wouldn’t be mad if larian didn’t change anything. But if something needs to be changed it is UA.
I was still on patch 5 when I played my first AA romance and it felt off. He was so very dominant in his words and behavior and his romance didn’t represent it at all! I was very happy when patch 6 came out. Since then I enjoyed AA romance a lot more with the new kisses from patch 6. I’m playing AA romance specifically for this dynamic. If not, I would’ve just played UA. This is why I don’t agree that AA should get kisses like UA. There is a different between them and I’d hate it if the route we choose doesn’t even matter anymore for the romance. The path of UA / AA has a huge impact on the romance and Id like to keep it that way.
