Baldur’s Gate 3 is the latest big game to follow an inclusive (but divisive) trend in video game courtship

Great quotes and I totally agree. I think it's a good example of how things that can seem really inclusive on paper sometimes go so far they swing around and feel exploitive in a different way.

I could imagine one way they could try and still have the playersexual thing, but maybe make it feel better, is if the potential partners are as picky as real life people. So in other words, it's possible to court anyone, but you have to really nail it to get any of them at all. No idea if it would fix the issue, but it sounds interesting to me to see how that would feel.
