Stop asking for romance.. bruh these are kids..

[Jin Yoichi]

the best you're probably gonna get is a prom dance... and that's it..

I'd rather see better features like an actual Companion system, clearly the game was hyped around a NON-existent feature, companions aka people u quest with are scripted toads... that's not fun, i wanna go with poppy into the dark forest and piss off some centaurs.. or collect spiders fangs w.e..

I also wanna see quiddich, which is also coming in a DLC most likely since it gets hinted.
Also years 6 and 7th.

Yet expressing any desire for a romantic subplot in the game -- just like there are "sweet" (literary term; means opposite of steamy; means G-to-PG level) teen romantic subplots in the books -- is "creepy" and means you're a pedophile. Which, of course, assumes that every player and everyone interested in such a subplot are significantly older than the characters (I'm confident that quite a number of players of this game are in the 16-18 year old range).

Hum, i think you are just wrong on this

Relationships dont equal Romantic Relationships, Your friends, guess what they are called Relationships, How you interact with people around you is a relationship, The relationship with parents,friends,strangers,etc

[Dis Lexic]

Considering how surface level most of the interactions between the characters are, it would probably need to be redesigned from the ground up to allow for anything like proper relationship quests.

These kids are 16, which is technically above the age of consent in Britain, with a few caviates involved, and most of my classmates had relationships at that age. If they were 11, I'd agree, but they arent. They are at the age when kids start fumbling around, trying to figure out this weird dating thing, so it wouldnt be completely out of place. Of course, it being the 1800, thats unlikely to actually happen.

[FreshRevenge]

Now I believe that people are throwing accusations around like calling people creeps etc. And it is really uncalled for

When I was in school mostly junior high to high school. Most guys wanted girlfriends. I wanted a girlfriend when at I was about 12 and upward. So the ideal of young romance is not off the table.

I remember liking this hot girl and was scurred to death to ask her out, but I finally did. So everything about romance was awkward at a young age. If I had the confidence that I had when I was younger, I would have asked her out without feeling like "what if she rejects me blah blah blah"

If they did add romance it would be like reliving my childhood memories as being a young boy trying to romance a girl by writing poetry or some stupid stuff lol.

I think you are using the word too strongly. Relationships are not as serious as you are making them.

Heck, in game you have relationship quests. Did you notice? So yeah, people have relationships. They aren't all sexual.

So, yes, most people, in most normal places, have relationships with people before they are married. Young couples have a different relationship than married people do. I'm sure you have experienced that too.

lets not twist words here because you and i both know people that are asking for relationships are asking for ROMANCE relationships.

And they are going to say romance means sex, and I'm going to say not necessarily.

[Narg]

Problems with romance? Sorry to hear that.

Assuming players would like to see romance in the HP game because they are personally into kids is ridiculous to put it mildly.

Unfortunaley people project their own bias when other people mention stuff. I agree. Is like saying that wanting combat and evil choices makes you a murderer. Asking if there is gonna be romance in a RPG game is normal since is an RPG, obviously that if the game is rated Teen, then the romcance will be age appropiate. I have mentioned it many times, but here I go again, games with Teen romance as player option:

-All Persona Games
-Life is Strange 1 and 2 and 3
-Final Fantasy series
-Rune factory
-Oki Doki
-And many non western games with focus on story.

Basically none of them has pornographical or suggestive themes on them. The romance is just part of the plot to flesh out character progression. On life is Strange 1 you can kiss or not kiss Chole as teen Max and there are zero reasons to think that the game developers were intentionally trying to promote pedophilia. Why people belive this, is what is wierd to me. There are like hundreds of VR porn games on Steam but somehow wanting a Yule Ball on Hogwarts Legacy or an awkard date in Madame Puddifoot's tea shop, is pedo.

Implying is deadly, If they state they want Romance then sure do what you want with that info if they dont then its whatever

[Hex]

Not every romance has to be.. ''y'know'.

Teens are allowed to have relationships too.

If it's a romance like in a Harry Potter movie or a Persona Game, it think it's fine

Some romances in Persona implied explicit actions were taken.
