Can NPC date each other?

[Yuanfen]

Hi, I thought I had read somewhere when the game was still in beta, that after some time NPC could date each other if you didn't make any move towards them. I was wondering if it was implemented or not?

I've only seen it with Owen and Amirah so far and that wasn't really a date. He asked me in a letter to make a high-quality ceramic bottle. He then gave it to Amirah and asked her if she would go out with him. I only had this quest in one playthrough and I honestly don't know what I did for it🤷🏻‍♀️ In another playthrough I received the same letter but at the end of the quest he said that he needed it as an anniversary gift for his parents on their wedding anniversary. I think it was his parents... However, here I was in a relationship with Owen so I think that will be the reason for the difference.

Thank you for your quick response! I was really looking forward to that, because there was in my time at portia to NPC that could too marry each other and I was wondering if it was the case in this one too. I will keep an eye on Owen and Amirah then haha

Let me know if and how you brought the two together. I could no longer trigger the quest where the bottle was for Amirah, I don't know what I did for it back then.

As far as I know, it was an idea that was tossed around but hasn't actually been implemented yet (I don't even know if there are still plans to do anything with it or not at this point)

I'm hoping there is some sort of rival marriage/matchmaking system added, though, that was a feature that I was always sad hasn't really made it into the last decade-ish of life sim rpgs

yeah, the only game I have played with this kind of feature was "harvest moon animal parade" in 2012 but it was more easy to implent since you could only marry/date opposite sex. But I would love to see that in the My time franchise!
