will the requirements for the romance route be things we have to choose before even seeing them again or while with them? Sorry it’s that’s worded bad lol. And does them being the half sibling of our cousin make them one of the ‘controversial’ ones or am I wrong about that? And will it be mentioned in the story, or is it the fact they’re the ‘bastard child’?
Not a lot is set in stone yet, since I haven't programmed anything yet, but for what I have envisioned, to access Daria/Darius full route, you will have to have high enough affection and may a few key choices during the playthrough.
Eirik is controversial because of who and what he is. Daria/Darius is not (aside from being Eirik's loyal supporter). But being a bastard will be a problem for the relationship depending on your characters plans.
