Obsidian's Avowed, now available in early access, has surprised players with a romantic subplot, despite earlier statements from the developers. While Obsidian previously stated Avowed wouldn't feature a dedicated romance system, opting instead for "thoughtful relationships" with companions, early access players report at least one companion, Kai, displays romantic interest in the player character.
This contradicts previous statements by Avowed game director Carrie Patel, who, in an IGN interview, explained the decision to avoid a traditional romance system: "We are building thoughtful relationships with our companion characters," Patel stated. "Ultimately, I personally am a fan of making that an option, but I feel like if you're going to do it, you really, really have to commit and make sure that you're giving all to fulfilling that in a way that feels both true to the character, but also creates an engaging player experience. So not something we're doing for Avowed, but I wouldn't say never."
Spoiler Alert! Details regarding the romantic interactions with Kai will follow. If you wish to avoid spoilers, do not proceed.
Warning! Avowed spoilers ahead!
