Thank you for the review.
There will be a relationship system where you romance one of the few anthro girls available, though the marriage part is reserved purely for the ending (the game isn't planned to be that long).
For grinding, there will be some generic repeatable side gigs you can do in between big story acts, but it isn't meant to be the focus beyond a storytelling device for why you're doing these jobs. This is my first project so I'm trying not to be too ambitious and bloat the game scope outside what a beginner can handle.
