Love Chronicles

Trust me if you have or want Fang as mate, you have to buy the new DLC. I would have preferred more territory to dig into but Fangs content is excellent!! I have a save file with Logan also but it doesn’t hit as sweet. Usually I’m not a sucker for the romance because it’s kinda strange but…….they did an excellent job.

Yeah, that's what I did. I married Fang on one of my characters, and adopted Coco, so she could live with X too :)

CoCo is male.

Didnt they say something about making Owen more story and romance at one time, or am i just thinking that they did? Cause i thought about making another save and trying out dating with possible marriage with him. already married logan ummm a bunch, also fang.

The 1.4 game update added 3 quests for Owen.

and yet they don't cater for the people that don't want too much romance and prefer what the game should be about - a builder rebuilding a town and helping out.

The developers are the ones who get to say what the game 'should' be about, lol.

I bet if you took a vote it would probably be about 50/50, so why concentrate on one side over the other?

It's an optional DLC. There was no romance in the Interior Design DLC.

Well, it's kinda normal a kid to get upset if only their sibiling got a present. I love the romance part (albeit not the ugly children), but would gladly buy some DLC with new building content, like a bath house.

For me, the romance is the main thing that attracts me to the My Time games the most, just gives it that soul, otherwise it would just feel too general, like any other building game. Don't get me wrong, building games are nice, but it's nice that the My Time games have that unique flair of being able to develop and have a relationship with someone, to spice things up.

I never would have thought people would actually be against additional romance being brought into the game, but that's their right to feel that way if they wish, so it was a smart move of the devs to put the content into a dlc, instead of forced in the base game, because, this way, everyone's catered to; whoever wants more romance can get the dlc, anyone who isn't interested in it, doesn't have to get the dlc, like someone said.

Don't get me wrong, I don't mind a little bit in the game, but just feel as though they are going to full on romance now. The balance in Portia was just about right. Here it's gone a bit more 60/40 in favour of romance and even more with the DLC.

Looking at the plans for Evershine, I think this will be my last "My Time" game.

They already said in their plans for Evershine that they are cutting back on the number of romancable characters because they realized it was too many in Sandrock. in Evershine the plan is to have fewer characters available for romance, but have them be fairly deep and engaging for those that want to pursue that romance path. To me that should bring it back more in line with Portia. As always, you can completely skip romancing anyone if you want.

The issue wasn't quantity it was quality. Bachelors did not feature guys like Rian but did feature Miguel and Burgess. Women featured family abandoners like Catori, creepy brother issues girl, an actual child named Elsie who's build like a child and uses child voice despite the concept art of an adult, just a whole cast of awful candidates.

I want Evershine to have good quality candidates and for content to not be locked behind romancing. For example, I shouldn't have to marry Fang to adopt X. I should be able to adopt X by being his BFF and going through his platonic quest line.

I don't disfavor fewer romance choices as long as they're good, compelling choices.

While some people just want a romance novel, some people want a more complete game that's a little more fleshed out in non-romance areas, and has a lot more character development and content outside of romance - I think Evershine looks like they're moving in the right direction.

It's not 50/50. It's 90/10 maybe even 95/5. MOST people play "farming games" because they want to date, get married and live the dream of owning a house (lol). Also they did have a vote; it was on discord. The discord masses have spoken.

I love how what they say on the new choices changes so you don't always get the same statement. Apparently Logan has a questionable "least regrettable" dialog that I haven't personally gotten but I've seen a screen shot. It starts with him saying he's not good with words then he proves it, lol.

That cuddle couch gets me. The fact the dialog will rotate the longer you sit on it is so cute. I also like that you can do some of the memories even if you aren't in romantic relationships. I did both of Mi-ans with only friendship.

omg I saw the new follow option on Mi-an first (I started a new save to play through it for the DLC because I am a nerd) so I chose it and she grabbed my hand and started saying sweet things as we ran through the desert and then I saw the interaction options and -- that's how I ended up marrying another lady for the first time in my gaming career (not really, still holding out for the yakboy, but I seriously thought about it she is so sweet).

If you haven't, tell her you're having a bad time with stuff in the interactions menu. D'aww.

I had Logan on follow and he started laughing and told me slow down before he slipped away or something like that - i don't remember the exact words it was super darn cute. I used Mi-an's to have her get on the horse after the time capsule quest so I could give her lift back to town, lol.

It does weird me out that even in a non-romance situation they do the romance pose for the new interactions. It's not so bad with Logan/Fang as they stand a decent distance away for it to not be awkward if you aren't romancing them. The girls get right in your face though. Like, girl-friend, I know you're being sweet but I need personal space - nose to nose is too damn close.

[Sunny]

hehehe yes, agreed entirely. if she were a little further back I could pretend she was just being a friend no problem buuuut that? yeah no.

Whoops, typo. Yeah, I know, but I don't support the notion of X and Coco being gay, though, so just instead view them as best friends.
