When you play an RPG, how much do you care about your character's romance options?
>>726042413Could not care in the slightest, shit is cringe
>>7260424130% I only want to go on an adventure
>>726042413They should fuck each other
>>726042413Left is better because male.Also I always avoid romance in games unless the game forces you to do romance to progress like Dragon Quest 5. Romance is pointless. I want gameplay. I can just watch all the porn I want on e621 without having to pay for a game.
Why is it always ONLY for men?
None at all, because most of the time the options are shit and not any of the characters I actually like.
WHY THE FUCK IS IT MOSTLY IN JRPGS FOR PETES SAKE? WHERE'S MY ROMANCE OPTION FOR MY 2D PLATFORMER OR ROGUELIKE? WHAT IS THIS BULLSHIT?

>>726043385>WHERE'S MY ROMANCE OPTION FOR MY ROGUELIKEADOM let you recruit a female berserker by giving her a wedding ring. Then she dies because all recruits suck and are essentially fodder.Caves of Qud had Proselytize and Beguiling I guess and you can in theory use them on female characters as your waifu. But pick someone sturdy who won't die immediately and don't run a speed build or they will lag behind.
>>726043196It's 2025, girls can have brides too.
>>726043756What if it's women who don't want to be lesbians?
>>726043918That's what the bride (male) is for.

>>726044265He's labelled gay so he's off limits to women.
>>726042413Kill yourself furnigger.
>>726044635BOTH! BOTH! BOTH!
You trannies already have a general thread with the exact same ""subject"" already, nigger Doesn't get more cancerous than this ""game series""
>>726044635What's the point of doing one if you're not going to do the other.
>>726042413Ralsei looks so cute in that dress
>>726044635It's weird how gay men just normalize insulting and abusing their partner.
>>726043196Making things for women is stupid
>>726044890That's because homosexuality is born from abuse in the first place
>>726044815So true. My favourite part is the veil, a garment which I very much enjoy. I am also a fan of the flowers.
>>726042413>When you play an RPG, how much do you care about your character's romance options?Depends on the type of RPG. Some RPG's are focused on a very clearly defined and pre-established characters with emphasis on their personal story - like say, Witcher, CP77. In those case, I usually care somewhat, because it's (at least when done right) an important part of the puzzle of the story.I cared about romances in Witcher because grew up with the books, and know how important his love-life is to Geralt as a character. And I was genuinely curious how they'll handle them.Similarly I cared in CP77 because again, it is a pretty important part of the development that V goes through.But other RPG's are more free-form and more about giving you as a player control to sculpt the main character, in which case I usually could not give any less of a fuck. I don't actually find gratification in pretend-waifu's at all, and with these games naturally having less controlled writing (to allow for more wiggle-room for the player), there usually isn't good writing to back it up either.So yeah: basically, if I'm supposed to self-insert, I don't care. If an RPG is structured as someone else's story, and I'm more-or-less just an audience - then if it's well written, I care, if the writing is tripe I don't.Really, ultimately only one game managed to get me REALLY invested in what could be passed for romance option, and it wasn't an RPG, it was a survival game called Pathologic.And that is because it is easily and by far the best written game I've ever played, and has some of the best ways to accommodate player agency while also keeping the writing and characters extremely central and extremely well defined. And also, it's not really a romance subplot of the traditional variety.Fucking Lara Ravel man. The only time a game got me genuinely completely lose my shit over an implied romance charater. In both Pathologic games, 1 and 2.
>>726044946childbirth is abuse
>>726045848No it isn't.
>>726042413I don't know, you tell me
>>726042413How about instead to gooning literal animals, we post our predictions for the plot in the next parts of the game in here.Sooo... I think Cris will fucking die and Susie will become the new protagonist and have a romance with... *checks the Deltarune wiki* Noelle and Ralsei is the super evil secret twist villain in the end. Thoughts?
0/10 bait ^try harder next time
>>726047371Okay,Hear me out. In chapter 5, Noelle will get gangbanged by everyone in the festival. And that's where we get to possess her when she falls unconscious from the intense orgasm she experienced. That's where the weird route becomes irreversible. Ralsei is going to get creampied by Kris while Susie gets to sit on the cuck chair.
>>726047371alright buddy>asgore is cucked further and turns out he actually fucked up>toriel will remain an ass shat>reunion with asriel will be very bitter in some way>the structure from chapters 1+2 continues to be subverted to the end of the game>obvious foreshadowing and hints will be subverted for the hell of it>the player will be scolded for playing the game once again>the point of the weird route is that self inserting into the main character and trying to romance other characters is evil
>>726049958>asgoreHe is getting gored by Susie with her axe.Mark my words.
>>726042413It's actually kinda funny that I don't normally give a shit about RPG romance but man do I want Kris to fuck this doe
>>726050794fluffy girls belong to human men
>>726042413For me it's De/ss/
>>726050794This but I'd rather have Kris for myself.Noelle can watch from the chair
>>726050794
>>726055985Susie...
Why'd she do it bros?
>>726042413choice is obvious(me) in noelles body marrying kris
>>726042413Fucking goat boi butt easily.
