Romance...?

[Argazaar]

Howdy. Want to know more about romance in this game. Does it exist here? As a purely player-controlled, or NPC interaction? How many characters? Any choices? Or very little, inconsequential romance?

[David Davidson]

Yeah
Minor spoiler


Peeping in the caravan window while the lizard king is screwing the brains out of some other lizard is quite amusing. Especially when they spot you, hilarious dialogue options

my custom made character just flirted with one of the other heroes in my party of the same sex, so I searched about this and got here, so I would say yes.

As far as I have found so far (Most of the way through chapter 4, Driftwood) only the PCs have what could be considered "Romance". The flirting with Butter turns out to be a red-herring.

Yeah, there's an opportunity to bone Zane before he dies if you don't choose him for your party, and I've had some good flirting with Ifan, and while it's not like 5 minutes of ongoing dialogue like you might see in ME or DA, it feels a little more natural. I'd say it's closest to Jade Empire for romance from the Bioware games I've played.
Beast and I get along, but I haven't really seen any romantic stuff with him, definitely not like Ifan.

I know my male human cleric had sex with Fane at one point, on the Lady Vengeance. The memories still haunt me.

Fane is easy, I was just talking about getting a drink then he's like is this a mating ritual? Of course Ifan my avatar was like like what? of course not.. I'm just hoping there is a way to make a relationship with Sebille, Ifan likes her crazy

Depends on what quite early means, I've gotten a few 'nice' bits all casual nothing that actually hints at a relationship so far.

Beast did a striptease for my Fane. That was unexpected lol

[Skatters]

As the Red Prince I had an... experience with fane, where afterwards he asked how I did that thing with my tongue... I couldnt stop laughing. And I also made Ifan blush.. so err... theres certainly some Lizard on corpse/human options :p

[ConductOfWar2]

As Fane leader Sebile was my playmate

[genacline1]

Ifan's romance felt pretty good, mostly because there's flirtation before the opportunity for a bed scene making the progression feel more natural. His reactions when his attitude towards you is high also help, as he starts putting some major issues in your hands and trusting you to make the best decision. Beasts was cute, but.... sudden. Fane's romance kind of feels shallow, because while he obviously can end up liking you, he never stops being at least a bit of a prick, and that doesn't really fit with the emotional bedroom scene. I haven't tried anyone else yet though.

Overall though, I appreciate the progression pretty well.

[AIntPJZ]

Hell Fane has somer advantage. He can shapeshift into whatever you want !

[Solid Snake]

Some of these stories make me cringe and shiver. ugh. lol.
Shame the thing with butters doesnt turn out how I had hoped. Though Glad to know so doesnt waste my time pursuing.

Romances exist between the original characters.
In my game between Sebille and my main character - the Red Prince. (highly recommended, very sweet).

As you may have noticed, there is a sympathy system between the characters,
visible at the pop-ups (+10 sympathy at Sebille for example) in dialogues.
However, these pop-ups do not appear in conversations between custom characters.

You just have to talk to them when you get sympathy points, reach a new chapter of their personal story or generally complete a quest that arouses their interest.
Sebille, for example, will like you if you stand for liberties and punish Persons who use others.
