Patel the game director said its because the characters is to shallow, you need deep character and interactions for it to work and while they wanted to add romance it was not possible in a quality way.
Shallow characters in an RPG feels like a major condemnation of quality to me...
This is not really an RPG. This is what we call a console action adventure with light RPG elements

hey, at least it's a kinda refreshing complaint compared to all the other stuff on this hub :D

personally I dont really need this one in particular but having more options for interactions with NPCs is always nice. so I see their point.

I want to say every other RPG Obsidian has made had romance options... so I guess this is more a kid's game then?

The Outer Worlds did not have romancing.

Fallout New Vegas did not have romancing.

Pillars of Eternity did not have romancing.

Pillars of Eternity II did have some extremely shallow romance options.

Look, uhhh, I'd rather have no romance over some of the ♥♥♥♥ romance written in modern games (ie. I prefer none if what I would get would be the romances in veilguard).

Wrong again friend, new Vegas had no romance interests in it as well, and I can't recall romances in most of their other games either.

Could have sworn there was romance in Outer Worlds but I guess it was all asexual
