After v3.0 update Zoi’s and NPCs have changed relationships and show interest in same gender for romantic interaction.
[ Add UI option in game settings to toggle “same gender” romance option ON or OFF ]
Please add an UI option at the top level in the game settings to toggle ON or OFF, romantic interactions with the same gender amongst all zois, player controlled as well as NPCs.
After the v3.0 updated all Zois, player controlled as well as NPCs now display interest in the same gender as well, in fact more so. This happens in a new save game as well. Changing this behavior using cheats is not a good game play technique. It is too time consuming to do for several zois, and almost cannot be done for NPCs. This current zoi behavior is ruining the game experience for me.
With complete respect to all communities, I prefer that in the game that I play, all Zois, including newly created NPCs, should have romantic relationships only with the opposite gender. I understand other players may prefer relationships to be with all genders.
Hence the request for a top level “game settings option to toggle same gender romance relationship ON or OFF”.
Thank you for sharing ideas for the game. We truly appreciate all kinds of suggestions that help us improve. In the meantime, I’ll go ahead and move this post to the Wishlist category since it doesn’t appear to be a bug.
Let me understand this correctly “all Zois, player controlled as well as NPCs now display interest in the same gender as well, in fact more so.” Is not a bug? so your saying that this was done intentionally? Am I missing something here?
The situation of all Zois preferring any gender for interaction got in the game in the v0.3 patch. Since then, in later game versions, when creating a Zoi, an option was added where we can select the preferred gender to interact with other Zois. The game then generates NPCs with similar gender preferences. (I think for all NPCs. Not sure.)
So while a top level option has not been added for gender-interaction preference, a per save game level option exists for all Zois, which does seem to work fine. We can selectively change these preferences via cheats to alter the behavior for specific Zois.
I thought it depends on the character that you create first. Isn’t that so? I often create bisexual Zoi and all NPCs become bisexual too. One time I created a hetero character and then all NPCs became straight too.
But I would like NPCs generated differently. It would be more interesting if the NPCs had different sexual orientations and we could adjust the percentage of different preferences
Doesn’t appear to be the case for me, I’ve always made straight zois but for some reason they always prefer the same sex, and that is despite checking if gender identity, interested in etc. is set correctly.
I’m all for it! Make this switch please
