I would actually like an ongoing romance, but romance=/=romantic comedy. I'm sure you know that romantic comedies aren't even remotely realistic portrayals of romance. Really, you could just keep having them interact as they did in this game, & that would suffice, as long as they just committed to it & didn't say "they're just friends" or "however you want to interpret it," though that last one at least presents the possibility.

From what I gather from listening to long time fans, many of the people who picked up this game without ever playing any of the previous ones (like myself) are in this mainly for the story (though that needs work), & the whole "nothing but adventuring & shooting" mindset was leading to a decline in the series.

Also, I have literally never referred to this character as anything other than "Asian girlfriend." I cannot go back now.
