Which video game has the best romance system?

>>737672792Hello kitty Island adventures
SkyrimNo gay ass wooing and romantic dialogue that only faggots and women like. Just a woman going "You look like a good man to make babies with. I am looking for a good man to make babies with. Let's get married."Only problem is you don't make babies and just adopt someone else's kids.
women aren't allowed on 4chan
None of them. They're all shit in every single game.
>>737672792What is the context of this scene?This is fucking gross, is this some self insert and they think this scene makes them look cool?Actual maladjusted behaviour
All romance systems are shit. It's all about simping your target with right dialogue options and/or giving them gifts to increase favorability number. I just want a game where NPC's can hate you but still be sexually attracted to you
>>737673116>no sex or intimacy, and you raise another mans childSo you like being a cuck?
>>737673383>>no sex or intimacyYour fuck you wife every night you spend at home. Every single one. She never says "I've got a headache."
>>737672792Dragon Commander

Is there a word or phrase for this "Sterile Romance" shit? I've heard "Safe Horny" get thrown around, and that doesn't exemplify the feeling, or I guess lackthereof, I get from shit like this. It's as though it's devoid of actual human passion. As though something as spontaneous and volatile as sex and attraction, as well as the development of these things into actual love, care, affection, and passion are just a box to check. A lifeless "thing" to do, just like any other. It doesn't spur a sense of wonder, excitement, or even humanity. It's as if it's written by people who have never experienced any legitimate human connection, or even worse, it's written FOR people that haven't done this as to not offend them by simulating desire.This is worse than the blatant coomer shit which is at least simple. "Me like big boob and it make me want to stick penis inside" has more passion and imagination than the absolutely lifeless and sterile attempts at "romance" I've seen from some of these dogshit games.
>>737673459In Skyrim you never have sex with your wife unless you mod the game. You also cannot have biological children with her, only adopted. If you're just imagining these things happen because you're "roleplaying", then that's another matter.
>>737675007"Safe horny" was created to describe it, but it's been overused to the point of meaninglessness. I've compared it to Saints Row IV "romances" where you literally just walk up the character and say "wanna fuck?" and then you fuck. Despite being a parody, those have just as much actual romance put into them as all this new shit.
>>737675078retard
>>737675007Bioware.
>>737673504That looks like shit. She looks like one of those cheap blowup sex dolls.
>>737672792>systemFound your problemIf romance has nothing to add to the story (and story is supposed to be fun) why bother?
>>737672792>not only immediately goes soft but gets erectile dysfunction
Star Ocean 2>Show up in town>Your party disperses to wander solo>You get to walk around and find party members shopping, exploring, etc>Get nice little individual vignettes with optional romance lines that you can choose>Game has a distinct "friendship" and "romance" score so you can actually get "paired up" with another character in a platonic way rather than romantic>You can ship your party members too, instead of just you with each of them>If a character dies in combat their boyfriend/girlfriend gets especially distraught and sometimes gets a buff>Game's endings are about pairing off the characters based on their relationship scores, and they either get a romantic or non-romantic ending Loved that shit
>>737675167>but it's been overused to the point of meaninglessness.Yeah it's been just co-opted to be a derivative of "woke" slop shit. I guess "sterile" is the only way I can describe it. It's safe, sterile, inoffensive, made for everyone slop-type romance. It's slop in the literal sense, a lifeless, formless blob of nothing that doesn't appeal or repel anyone in particular, because it's a product made for every single person to enjoy equally. Even if "enjoy equally" is "not enjoy at all" because of how fuck awful it is.
>>737675007Wolfenstein was the only game I ever saw that did a somewhat realistic depiction of "romance" in that she initially is just really hot for the guy because he's buff and kills nazis and has a huge cock and so she pretty much instantly just starts fucking him.That being said, the idea their relationship becomes some super loving one when it's pretty much entirely based on lust is a little silly.
>>737675667It was truly ahead of its time. Does the remake still have this thing?
The fag agenda needs to convince people that being a fag is normal, so now friends aren't allowed because being friendly means you want to ass fuck your bro. Similarly, gays don't romance, they are hypersexualized and just want endless one night stands. The result of this is that no game will have good romance or good friendship is a fag is involved anywhere in the writing
>>737674234
>>737675167>>737675720That's not what safe horny means. It means lefty approved sexuality
>>737677247>tall dom girl on guy based tier>tall dom girl on girlyuri cuck tier>troon on girl/guy faggot tier
>>737675007I think this type of writing is the result of literal narcissists who are unable to understand human connection. The closest thing they know is casual sex but they can't write that due to corporate meddling
>>737673170my guess it's some kind of feminist "get back at the patriarchy" thing
>>737675007they experience romance from TV series, video games and japanese cartoon porn. that was their childhood and adolescence, if they were lucky they had a volatile teenage relationship with hormonal, rabid sex and explosive breakups over nothing. then they got older but didn't grow up and got a job "writing" video game scripts.>>737679659narcissists dont have casual sex, they have power games and ego boosts that involve sex.
>>737672792>quick think about us having sex>immediately vomits

>>737672792UhhhhWould

>>737675007Its worse than high-school theatre kids romance. Most of the cutscenes and character interactions are borderline unwatchable.

>>737673504What's crazy is I don't look like this. Like not even close.
>>737676680No they removed it
>>737674234Rather romance barkspawn than Taash.
>>737680128>When you technically tick all the fetish boxes but still manage to write an awful, unappealing character.Once again, I am honestly surprised Bioware hasn't been closed when EA killed off better studios for way less shit products.
>>737672792I believe everyone fucking hates TAASHeven apologist DA reviewers can't defend that freak
>>737685020Whore
>>737672792I swear all tranny made romance follows this template
>>737672792Is this the new star periphery update?
>>737675007It's leftist romance, which means it usually involves anything but heterosexuality which means it's unnatural and disgusting
>>737675007None of the people writing these stories have had sex.
>>737688156I forgot which game it was but the devs going "we don't do romance stuff because we have no clue about it" was adorable
>Wanted to bang a female qunari since DA2I don't think I've been monkey paw'd this hard before, lads. I'm STILL butthurt.
>>737677247NB people are not transgender, I don't know why this is complicated to understand
>>737673170It's someone's fetish
>>737672792anything that doesn't have playersexual shitfuck you faggotsliterally ruined romance in gaming
>>737688256Alright i'll bite the bait, define NB.
>>737688526look it up yourself, I'm not your teacher
>>737688551>I don't know why this is complicated to understandYou don't even know yourself, it's a nebulous term you keep using to fit whatever bullshit you are spouting.
>>737677247>tall redhead is domineering, but not overly so>redhead is casually leaned up against the wallwhoever wrote this is a fag who didnt watch the actual porn where lauren phillips is acting mad because the other girl fucked her bf
>>737679610>tall dom guy on girl?
>>737677247Right one is way too exaggerated and all nuance is removed and you know they would never risk glorifying feminine characteristics either
I haven't played the ME games since 3 (still mad) so maybe I just have rose tinted goggles but Tali was my first video game romance that teen me fell in love with.
>>737672792>all these disgusting comments towards Tashthe writers were truly ahead of their time
>>737677247It seems like romance options in games today are either full on hentai smut meant to appeal to the gooniest of gooners or sjw cringe where any hint of romance, sexiness, and affection is removed from the relationship because the writers are terrified of anything that could be considered "exploitation."

>>737674234Amazing how they could nail the lighting and scene framing so that it looks like she has both unibrow and stache.
How big is her transfemme boyclit?
Post the scene. The dinner scene.
>>737691478
>>737691662Thank you. This is too funny. Surreal.
>>737691662How do you fuck up a dinner scene?
>>737691848by telling everyone that you're non-buynary
>>737691848They watched shrek 2 & said we can make it inclusive
>>737691848By having *that* conversation. >the lead writer got canned after this I’m trying to imagine what it’d be like to be someone who actually identifies with this whole weird sex spectrum shit, to attempt to write a character that is intended to be the embodiment of my massive personal struggle, and then have the whole thing crash and burn so catastrophically that I end up getting laid off. Surely he must see this as something eye-opening.
>>737692290Have you ever had any conversation with someone that is mentally ill? Or like even a temporary delirium where they are hallucinating spiders somewhere. Their brain won't allow the mere notion of being wrong, it's completely shut down.
>>737692290It's just so weird to put into a game, especially one with a setting like Dragon Age
>>737692290>Surely he must see this as something eye-openingThese people are sheltered, self centered and egotistical. They will never be in the wrong. They will never go through ego death because they are spoiled bourgeoisie. The world will be at fault in their privileged eyes.
>>737692290Stop being anti-semetic.
>>737672792*vomits*
>>737688256They are by definition unless they were born and the doctor somehow pronounced them as a fake gender. “It’s a beautiful nonbinary individual!”. Hell, nonbinary is even worse than normal transgender, at least the person pretending to he the other sex has a definition.
It's only missing Mary Kirby since I can't find a picture of she/her.
>>737692290Unfortunately it may have made him even more adamant, though whether he becomes more or less vocal is up to whether he's an ideologue or just mentally ill. You see it with cults that fail to predict the apocalypse or whose initial leader dies, some leave and the rest are even more devout despite looking retarded.
>>737672792>sexNO SEX can be had with two men. You can use each other’s assholes to jerk off at best. That’s not fucking sexual intercourse. Imagine that giant disgusting tranny beast raping that little dude with its giant barbed dragon dick. Is this the imagery the writers of this fucking garbage wanted to conjure in the player’s mind? No wonder no one bought this feces and it tanked the IP. The fuck?
>>737673116>a woman
>>737694061Yeah, sounds about right. Identity is something that deeply insecure human beings seem to have a rather tenuous grasp of, and so they latch HARD onto the thing that they’ve put the most effort into building up as proof of who they are, no matter how insane it obviously is.Pretty sad way to live. At least now he isn’t likely to be shitting up vidya anymore.
The Persona series no doubt. Dragon's Dogma's romance is decent too.
>>737689747dustborn is unironically more like that
>>737692450>especially one with a setting like Dragon AgeTheir jobs are to not care. Companies want IPs to be the largest, all-encompassing products possible so they get writers who either don't know or dislike the source material. Fans are assumed to be on board regardless so they want to expand elsewhere.
>>737677247I wish to mention that in forensics, "body language" analysis is a complete pseudoscience.
>>737672792Why can westerners only write the cringiest and gayest romances?
>>737691662>Who the fuck starts a conversation like that!? I JUST sat down!
Probably Mass Effect
>>737691662it was hilarious seeing people meltdown by this, probably triggered some deep trauma of them right before they fucked up their lives
