I never have much expectation for romance in these types of game, i only do them if they are a requirement for a ending.
It seems super silly, like a very secondary and non important feature.
But, it made me realize the (arguably most important) choice in my main story was made because of how the game is programmed, not because of storyline.
Because I realized, that might be the only way to any sort of interaction between my romance option, after being treated as a generic NPC for 60 hours after finishing that quest line.

i hv not yet a game that could top dragon age romance system...that game may suck at other aspect but the companionship is legit...
So here is what happened with V having two romantic partners at the end of the game; V gets the option to call both. V can talk to either one however if V talks to one V can’t call the other. If V talks to Judy, she says that she will be waiting for V at the end of the call. If V talks to River, he says that V can count him at the end of the call.
I picked option not call either to see what happens. And went with the nomads for help and called Panam. Afterwards neither Judy or River showed up at the end. I reloaded the save file before the call and picked Judy as the person to call then replayed the assault with the nomads and she was at the camp in the end. So, it seems the phone call determines who will be there. And during the credits the only thing River talked about was thanking V for helping him with his investigations.

Should Call some GAME DEVS to tie up all these options lmao
Putting the time into the missions to build up the relationship with Judy, getting a key to her apartment, for it just to stop until the very end of the game is probably the thing I hated most. Going to the apartment and just getting the same 3 generic questions really sucked,
I really like how relationships are made but don't understand why there is no option for female V to date with Panam...
I mean , what's the point making her straight? I rly don't like Judy and other options for female V and the only one truly good one is Panam but you can't have it.
I hope devs will change it in nearest future

This is a truly excellent point and needs to be hammered down, stating that you are taken and make it easy on the poor guy would have made it so much easier to go tru his story. And even if you accept to go through it there should be consequences if you are foolish enough to cheat. Hope they sort this bit before they introduce more romances. I wouldn't want any new ones anyways without first giving way way more depth to the current ones.

I posted this in a similar thread, it fits here probably better too.
Personally for me it was Judy that defined the entire experience honestly. When you ask yourself what did the story take you up on as your personal goal while going tru it, idk maybe for some it was collecting, gunplay or insane dps numbers or fashion for any customization or main story or achievement/completionist hunt, etc.... For me it was just Judy and all the bits of story she got with my female V, time would freeze when she called and texted and it all turned to Judy 2077. Pretty soon into the game too and am at 130 hours without haven't done all there is to do.
And by far nothing else will i be carrying with me further in my memories than that romance and story told with those 2 characters. So you can imagine the sadness when you realize that the start of your relationship is the end of it essentially as it stands now. I will get lovely messages from her and gifts as well as a line of dialogue and lovely ending but it feels so unfulfilled. Even her apartment turned into no more than a cute adorable gesture since all it does is just access to the stash that you can have at any moment with your car. Can't even take a nap on couch... Needless to say in a dark city where violence is daily on the table and morals are far gone with lost souls wandering aimlessly tru their days you find the one person that loves you. And after a day of blowing heads off random duds on streets you come back and can't even hug or kiss that person let alone take them out or do more with them. Am sure things i said were said many times before and they should be repeated and passionately pushed for and hammered down to make it clear.
Therefore ill list a few things i feel would give us all a more fulfilling experience:
1. Your character of choice for romance should be the only one that calls you by your full name after the start of the relationship.
2. Work on what is there already and build on it, randomize and expand the answers these characters can give us, its same lines atm, have them surprise us with different answers based on met conditions. If i ask Judy what new braindences she mixed up have her tell me 5 different things and let me choose other things to say based on her response.
3. More messages and text responses, this shouldn't be difficult but its what couples do endlessly so please. If they ask me what i want to eat for dinner or arrange a dinner after based on my response.... you get the point.
4. More quests together, casual or serious, romantic and sweet. Don't tell me that there isn't some misfit that wouldn't try get back at me tru my gf/bf in Night City, you can make so many stories its a damn gold mine.
5. More intimacy, option to kiss, hug should be somewhere in these responses we give to our person of choice. Ways to trigger more sex scenes with our partner, the ones already there are so damn tasteful and wonderfully artistic.
6. Don't make it easy. We want the challenge and sharp decision making to getting into the heart of ones we love. Triggering the intimate scenes should come with perfect decision making in dialogue choices and actions in quests/events.
7. Make more use of that apartment after they let us live with them i beg of you.
8. Let us take them with us in our car or on our bike on a mission. These characters are basically invincible and invisible anyways so just having them as support fire and some dialogue would mean so much already.
All these are within reach and not unreasonable. If at least some of the upper ones aren't met then please don't start introducing new romance options. "Quality over quantity, V." All the aforementioned can simply exist easy outside of the main storyline and simply build on the side. I'll tell you now that any new additions and changes that expands the romance of my character of choice will have me easily play tru all of the game again. And a separate multiplayer game without them as romance choice or extension of the main game will get no real interest from me. Build on your strengths, don't be a Destiny or Warframe that will get boring and beg for play tru simple grind. Build on story and dialogue and relationships that is what will make your audience sing praises.

It is a shame that they didn't add this to the game... I mean ... Your character gets well with someone (in my case it's Panam) and after all her quests they act like they didn't even meet (there are only three same options to ask and that's it)... It would be nice if they added features like for example your friend or lover can follow you (like doing gigs together ...), then if you do have a partner ... you should be able to kiss her/him ... or even have sex you know.... call for a drink ... some random messages ... and stuff like this...
Also I'd love to know if they actually plan to add features like this in the future.
I hope that some of you might share this idea and maybe answer my quesiton.
THANKS!
