@Remi @Kyonko802 @ChristiJunior @Cayhr @bleedingphoenix We kept having NPC events trigger in weird ways, like the game was unpredictably sharing their relationship states between all human players in the session. It didn't help that all romance gates were presented as a choice between "I will make small-talk with you since we're, y'know, trusting our lives to each other" versus "THE NIGGERPEECEE WILL NOT SPEAK IN MY HOLY HUMAN PRESENCE REEEEEEE" and doing anything other than yelling at them to fuck off apparently registers as a desire to receive their awkward as fuck advances.

Maybe that's the only kind of romance they know?
