So, another thing I've been thinking about with the whole Josy/Maya thing (sorry
Mormont), is that choosing to stay with them feels like a false happy ending for this portion of their relationship story. Sure, they all get together and it feels good because the MC hasn't lost them and there's the prospect of them all having a fulfilling, if unconventional, relationship, but that third-wheel complex still lingers. The frankly quick and easy way they literally kissed and made up honestly felt kinda sucky because it basically boiled down to:
MC: I fucked Josy and almost fucked Maya:
Maya: Is that true?
Josy: Yeah. And you?
Maya: Yep, but I'm not mad
Josy: Neither am I. Also, I still love you.
Maya: Me too.
*kiss*
Maya & Josy: Oh, MC, you're still here.
I get that this kind of thing happens in real life, where two people who love each other can have a moment where they're able to just to block out the world, but it still feels a bit out of place in this scenario. It makes it seem like their feelings for the MC were nothing because they so easily fell back into each others arms, but throughout the game it never felt like that from either of them, especially Maya, so this kind of goes against the grain. Having them not kiss and make up so easily might have been the better way to go because I can't see how a mutual cheating revelation can get their relationship back to full strength. I feel that them not knowing what to feel or what to do would have been better so that they have to try to rebuild their relationship, either with or without the MC. This would at least give the MC a better fighting chance to have and keep both of them, or at the very least get one of them if Maya & Josy can't move past their issues.
It's like, if there was a love scale where 1 = physical attraction and 10 = totally in love, Maya and Josy were probably about an 8 before their relationship got rocky and then it dropped to about a 3 or 4. With the MC, each of them got to about the same level with him, 3 or 4, by the time of the shock reveal. But then, when they get back together, it shoots back up to an 8, putting the MC at a disadvantage, when it would've been better to stay at that lower level so that the MC was more on a level footing should he choose to go for a threeway relationship. This way, Maya and Josy would have to rebuiild their relationship at the same time as building one with the MC and they would then progress at the same levele rather than have the MC playing catch-up.
