Basically exactly how I feel about her, she's not aggressively bad or anything, but I tend to forget she exists. I can't reall name anything particularly defining about her even (outside the GF stuff), she's just sort of there.
I don't mind the idea of companions getting into relationships, though I think it should be later game and only there if you don't pursue a romance path with them, kind of cuts off any chance of that happening in future otherwise.
Plus it feels really weird playing matchmaker and then going and fucking one of them 12 times in a row lol
Yeah, that would be nice. For example I do not have romantic interest for Ryn. So when I am not using her for my personal use in some saves, she just stands there. And I leave Brint alive mostly to see how his story is going to play out. So having an option to just give them lovers/something to do if you are not directly pursuing them would be nice. Kind of like what Quin is going to have with his new expansion. Just the knowledge/though that they have life outside of you makes them feel like there own people. But as I said, optional. Since, well, it does feel bad for a lot of players to feel like they are playing a second wheel.
Anything that might have even a whif of ''power fantasy'' gets you cold stares so protesting is a waste of time. I'm not sure how putting NPCs on a pedestal is to anyone but the writers benefit.
As I said, while people that support CoC2 do not really demand power fantasy (only for you NPCs, gaining unimaginative power...), they still ask for it. If you went into Observers thread where he posterd pregnant Rindo picks, people really became demandive that they should be the one to fulfill the dead. Not even counting stuff like being able to counter Leofric from sucked punching you or killing people that you do not like. While some of them do get shut down (like changing PCs genetelia) it is mostly because authors simply do not want to write it. And people get tiered of hearing same demands that are never going to happen.
Speaking of Rindo, I think it was already confirmed that if you do not want to marry her or something, she will just pick Kinus leftovers/Nakano. Something like that Cow girl at new texas. I do wonder if Takahiro could be like that.You know, not to be forced to see him getting married off to some background girl that you only spoken once with.
Probably not, considering that no many really care for him and that nothing like that has ever been spoken off. At least, judging by his Doc, we should be able to let him be. That is, be a drunk.
