An Ander Seeker?
The mere fact that you go on the defensive like this, and act semi-offended, would be more than enough for a psychiatrist to go to town over. You know that, right?
ANY obsession about the immaterial, ESPECIALLY the fictive, is not a healthy state of mind. I've seen people do some disturbed ****, because they were so obsessed with their romantic novel, that they self-inserted them into it, and actually thought that they were the main character being romanced by the characters of the book.
But hey, since I don't have a degree in psychology, who am I to say that this sort of behavior is unhealthy?
lol, ok! I merely asked what your qualifications were for determining your claim that it's "unhealthy", since you seem to be forcing it down the threads throat.
Defensive? Semi-offended? That's pretty funny! Think what you want, you are going to do that anyway no matter what (as evidenced by your previous posts), doesn't impact my life at all. 
I will give you the point that there have been people that;
"were so obsessed with their romantic novel, that they self-inserted them into it, and actually thought that they were the main character being romanced by the characters of the book."
, but that is hardly the norm as you are making it sound.

I NEVER said it was the norm..........

Don't see what this has to do with the romance system
Other than you copying & pasting just to claim about Bioware and praise TW3

It does. Btw, are you stalking me or something ? I'm honored.
The romance system Bioware games is a repetitive "sex for reward" trope that is quite frankly, very tiring at this point. Witcher 3 adopts a more organic, more natural and more believable approach to romance.
No doing one quest and then you get to bang. No retrieve and item for the person you want to bang and then bang. Not a lot of that.
Bioware can do well to learn from this. Making something more natural, more believable and more immersive is not copying for the sake of copying, its copying to improve.

Well, it would be a nice change of pace, to get a new take on the whole romance system, instead of the tried and true "Just agree with everything they say, and shower them with gifts, until they put out" approach that BioWare is otherwise going with.

Josephine doesn't have a "sex for reward" setup.
I like the romance system in DA:I but in my opinion it is inferior to the system in DA:O.
Are we talking about the game where you could literally win over your lover by piling a heap of gifts on them? Not my idea of a healthy relationship.
I do love DAO, but this aspect always annoyed me. Sure, your actions in the field will spark off reactions (will they agree or passionately hate your choices?) but then you go back to camp and start dumping stuff on them. Some are meaningful - like the amulet for Alistair - but simple rings / necklaces also net you goodwill.

I don't know what Stephenie Meyer has to do with Bioware romances... but okay?
