Consider that every video game romance is a menu-driven state engine with no actual emotional commitment. If that's maturity for you, well good luck out there.

Guess they should remove romance from books and movies as well - as those aren't real either. Just words on paper or actors on a screen.

I know a few books and movies that would be so much better without the tacked on romance.

Saying that, it's not tacked on in POE2, flags triggers are just bugged.

Everything story wise is a menu driven state engine in a vid product.

Watched detroit become human being streamed. Streamers were emotionnal involved, bordering rage when feeling helpless, tears in the eyes when they shook by brutal outcomes, driven by lust when they wanted to get laid with a romance option.
It brings tension as they are torn between different desires.
They are emotionnally shattered.
