Nathan and Elena from Uncharted.
The one where the sorceress with big-ass titties gets plowed by the ruggedly handsome warrior dude.also the one where the amazon with big-ass titties, ass, and abs fucks the apprentice magician kid
Prince of Persia.
Both Sands of Time and 2008

OP, you accidentally posted FFG, not Annah.
>>336967171
>Time is not your enemy. Forever is.
I like Annah, but she's got nothing on Fall-From-Grace.
FFG would not look at your face again if she learned the truth about your immortality after killing you with her kiss
>implying wrpg ever had good romance
I thought we had daily threads on this
>tfw no qt aspiring paladin bf whom you lead to the path of righteousness
Not that there's much competition, but nothing holds a candle to these two.
>>336968896
>Oh no, actual characters instead of animu waifus, my weeb brain hurts!
>>336965293
Both of them
>>336965293
These two were pretty genuine. Sadly the most they got was a bitter sweet ending instead of the happy one that they deserved.
>>336968896
Yeah, because the only genres in existence are wRPG and jRPG. Or at least this is what idiots believe.
>>336965293
Bill and his boyfriend from TLOU
it's the best becauseit's believable
Literally 11/10
>>336969298
Been craving some dude romance, Is this legit or just implied?
>>336965293
If anyone has ever fallen for someone in an mmo, her social link fits way too well and hits far too close to home

Morrigan was one of the most unrealistic characters in video games in spite of being incredibly in-depth. It's unbelievable that someone who grew up under such such shitty conditions, turned out to be such a shitty person, and happened to have a heart of gold to unearth. Second time through I was like, "I'm going to make this woman love me" and from an artistic standpoint she never should have only half-way warmed up to you at best.
That being said, she was fucking incredible. She pressed every fantasy fulfillment escapism-in-fiction button I had. She was too perfect. Just too fucking perfect.
the correct answer is shadow of the colossus
>>336970236
That's not Alistair.
Ugh I hate romances. I hate it when I'm just being nice to an NPC then BAM we're apparently dating even though I chose non-flirt options.
Why can't I just be a nice person, and why do I have to be a jerk to tell NPCs to leave me alone?
For example, in BG2, if I want to use Aerie, Jaheira or Viconia I need to make a female main character, otherwise my male character will constantly be harassed by these thirsty ass elves.
>>336965962
This.
Do Planescape: Torment figures/statues exist?
>>336971424
Except for being well worn used goods. The game went well out of its way to explain that both her and Leliana were huge sluts. Odd how wrpgs are so scared of anyone without enough sexual experience to shame a hooker.
Tidus and Yuna is the only correct answer
>>336972932
Around Elves watch yourselves.
Otome games always have the best written romances.
>get to pick your husbando
>choose a male-escort
>literally abandon the mystery/game and run off with him til things blow over
>nurse him back to health
>he loves you in all the right places for the rest of your lives together
Sweet Fuse is probably the most enjoyable game with "romance" options i've ever played.
>video games
>"romance"
Fucking NO

Seconding '08. SoT was a bit forced. Whereas putting all the optional conversations in '08 is rather organic, and rounds out the story.
name one game with good romance that didn't have a sad music box theme to go with it. you can't.
>>336965753
More like best BAWW ever. PST destroyed my feels.
Visas Marr and the Exile
>tfw she wants to look upon his face
>>336969395
>not playing WRPGs with anime portraits
>>336965293
Close, but it's Annah. The Witcher games handle adventurer fucking better than any other game, in that it's generally just "Hey you're immune to disease and sterile and you're a wiry monster slayer let's fuck" rather than retarded romance, and the actual romances are better than most games in that they're not complete tumblerina gigglesquee neckbeard stroking fodder, but they still lean on that side.
Annah however was done well. You don't fuck, which wouldn't make sense with all the shit going on, and you don't even get particularly affectionate. She just gradually becomes friendlier with you, and the final big payoff at the end of the game is she says she loves you during the final confrontation.
>>336976115
Witcher romances are trash m8. 90% of them are just sex as a reward for doing a thing
>>336976265
That's why I was differentiating Witcher's LET'S FUCK encounters with the actual romances (Triss/Yen and to a lesser degree Shani).
>>336965293
You just posted it.
>>336971424
You're half right.
Jacky and his wife from the darkness

>>336977790
Thanks for reminding me to finish it. I like it quite a bit. I just want to get the true ending all the bad endings are boring the living shit out of me.
>>336976115
all of the "romances" in planescape were trash. you talk to them a few times seeing if you can upgrade their stats or something and then suddenly at the end of the game they want your formaldehyde dick.
>>336978150
Isn't that every RPG romance ever?
>>336974840
*Grandia 2
>>336975813
PoP?
>>336978440
Depends on the era
>>336975813
>a sad music box theme
What does this even mean?
>>336977790
no tyvmyfn
>>336979267
It's been like that since the late 90s anyway, there barely were videogame romances before that.
>>336979501
No, I mean the execution of it. In the late 90s it was just as the other anon described - few chit-chats and then suddenly they are all over your dick/vagina in the final cutscene
>>336974698
Ok, I'm curious. Can I make Keiji Inafune my husbando?
I can't be the only one, right?
>>336969489
Neither character does anything for me, but the romance is very well done for a game.
>>336979660
It's still the exact same shit, just a few more "chit chats".
You raped the cat, right /v/?
>>336980047
W-what game?
>>336979796
Their romance ended in a nice way, but a lot of it was pretty lazy "love at first sight" nonsense, there wasn't much actual romance to it, they just wanted to fuck because the other one was the hottest person they had encountered. Their story did get better as it went along though.
>>336975890
BAWW?
>>336965293
>>336971424
>heart of gold
What?
>>336980047
I would if I knew what was going on. Games that let me rape are the best porn games of all.
>>336980367
It's a pity the "rape" in Rance games is such a letdown, it's always the MOST vanilla shit imaginable, every scene exactly the same and she always loves it by halfway through if not earlier.
>>336978440
every wrpg maybe, plenty of games build things up with events and scenes and special music and stuff.

>>336980228
Alternatively, from the same series.
>>336980823
Oh I thought it might be that one, I can never remember the name. I was never interested in it because all the options seemed kind of bara, I'm more into my twinks or fembois
>>336975993
>not Handmaiden/Exile
C'mon, anonI do like Visas, though
>>336980209
Baww - Similiar to 'Aww', usually said in response to something depressing.
>>336974485
WRPGs reflect the cultural view of the liberal places in North America. Sexual experience in a woman isn't seen as a bad thing in that culture.
Noctis and Gladio will be one of the best, trust me
>>336965293
Alice and Luka in Monster Girl Quest in my opinion is unironically the best romance done in a video game
>>336980479
Not really.
>>336980994
Tita is so cute! CUTE!
>>336981404
Thank you, urban dictionary.
>>336981827
Yes, exactly that. Every scene is identical.
>>336965293
she is only pretending
>>336980823
I don't much care for weebery but that sounds pretty much great, I'll go take a look. Thanks anon.
>>336983308
Initial impression after some casual googling, --weebery, -furry, -gay as the dickens, +++rape someone to the point of suicide, +possible psychological abuse for sex.
About breaking even, here.
>>336965293
Damn she's cute, CUTE!
Locke and Celes is a strong contender for me.
>>336983979
Correct
>>336969584
nier and kaine
>>336979796
cringeworthy as fuck
>>336983979
>not Luka and Granberries
>>336984370
Just because your'e waifu lost doesn't make the romance any worse
>>336982463
Plenty hate it.
>>336983979
Isn't their kid the main character in the sequel?
>>336984634
No, Luka is the main character in the sequel
I've only played up to the part where the translation ends but Luka's kid was only an NPC
I think there's a part where you play as him and fight a fucked up Heinrich though
>>336969584
The bottom one definitely, best posted.
Witcher series
>>336970236
Wrong answer, apostate scum
It took from 1989 to 2014 but it was worth it
>>336965293
>tfw no Twilek gf

>>336966842
Going with this one as well. It was a bit rushed, but it felt pretty organic compared to most vidya game relationships.
>>336965293
The romance between you and your hand.
>>336987952
>She will NEVER EVER bring him back
>>336985430

It's okay though. They both die and live again in canon.
>>336976962
Oh slap mod, the best thing ever created for DA.
I've always been a sucker for puppy love.
>>336983979
>it's another "the demon/monster is actually good and the angels are bad" episode
>>336965293
who is this semon demon?
>>336992060
Lili was a cute. I wonder how badly they'll fuck up their relationship in the sequel.
>>336992060
At least Raz got the one girl in Psychonauts that's actually mostly symmetrical.
>>336979956
But now the chit-chat is actually there, instead of few insignificant and truly lack-luster dialogues that suddenly opens "special ending" slide during the ending slide-show.
Then again, current games tent to over-do the whole thing and you jump in the same fucking dialogue from total stranger to main love interest, which is just as much annoying as late 90s style of handling it.
>>336969584
>mfw they've killed Mona in MP3 just for the sake of it
And people ask why I deny existence of any Max Payne games after the 2nd
>>336981689
>not Noctis and Ignis
The devs agreed, don't bother them about it.
Kazuki and Emma from FM3. Hit it off quickly, have plenty in common, support each other during the game, and even agree to start a family later.
They were really good for one another.
>>336976052
That's... what's the point? They don't even fit, they stand out.
>>336974223
What now?
>>336975993
>From the moment I heard your voice across the galaxy, I have longed for you—When I heard it, I loved you more than my own life. And I wanted you to be here with me, for as long as you will let me love you.
>>336985715
[Shock Vette]
But anyway, the male Trooper had the best romance.
>>336992941
Fall-From-Grace, an actual succubus from Planescape: Torment.
>>336984764
>>336984634
Is the sequel getting a second part? There's no sex scene with the loli Ilyas and THAT IS NOT OK
>canon
Obviously.
>>336984764
Fight a fucked up Heinrich WHAT?
>>336977790
still hurts
>>336976052
harem party best party
>>336970236
Shit-tier taste detected.
Pic related is suited better for true patricians. Close follow ups are Garrus and Aerie.
>>337002137
I am convinced that people who romanced Merril are closeted pedophiles, even if her tits were the second biggest in the game.
But then again, every romance route in that game is fucking awful.
I loved Ciel and Zero. Of course, they never ended up together, but were one of the first examples of Human-Reploid romance, alongside Neige and Craft. Both Zero and Craft sacrificed their futures for the sake of a world where Humans and Reploids co-exist, and then you have those Human-Reploid hybrids in the ZX series.
It is sad to think Ciel died alone in the end.
>>337002137
>Dragon Age 2
>good romance
You have to be genuinely retarded to believe that.
>>336974698
I remember this, It was pretty good. I liked the nerd's route.
This right here.
Ash has a near death experience, his thoughts of the girl next door who is sweet on him give him the willpower to survive.
He gets back home and lays her right.
There is no bullshit. No stupid drama. The guy isn't an oblivious retard. He protects the hometown, she doesn't get kidnapped.
Even though he has a dangerous job that requires lots of traveling, he takes every opportunity he can get to head back home and see her.
Ash and Marina become romantically involved early in the game, support one another and nothing gets between them.
>>337002871
Stay pleb.
GET OUT OF MY FUCKING WAY YOU FUCKING PLEBS... IF NONE OF YOU EVER EXPERIENCED THE ROMANCE WITH THE MOST BEAUTIFUL VICONIA YOU CUMDROPS ARE IN NO WAY ENTITLED TO ANY OPINIONS !!!
REEEE
>my mssinsinsr
>>337004229
Viconia is the shittiest character in the game, on top of being a filthy Drow.
>>336979796
>>336980204
Christ I hate FFX-2. I hate that game with a burning passion for pissing all over everything that made FFX great, including the romance.
Saerileth romance mod for BG2.:^)
>>337002137
This bitch is like one of those chicks that seems kinda normal and kinda cute, only for you to find out on the second date that she's really into crystal meth or carjacking or some bullshit and tries every tired bullshit excuse in the book to justify it. And she's also really shitty at it. I knew this bitch was fucked up and bad news since the first time meeting her. At least Isabella I knew what to expect, and there's the bonus of them curves.
>>336965293
>What's the best romance in video games ever made?
Mask of the Betrayer hands down, the entire plot is about the romance.
>>336995313
Mona dying is cannon, fuck off.
>>337004123
Stay Biodrone.
>>337004579
But that's the best part about the romance. She's such a fucking trainwreck and you help her get better.
>>337005391
Only if you play Max Payne 3.
She fucking SURVIVES MP2. And that's where the story should have ended. Hell, it ended there. It was just greed that created pointless and needless sequel after a fucking decade.
>>337005569
No dude, the Mona survives ending was non-cannon from the start.
>>337005821
Not that anon, but do you have a source for that claim?
>>337005821
>Canon
You are at least aware neither of the endings is confirmed as canonical?
>>337004579
>Except instead of crystal meth or carjackings it's fucking blood magic, bound daemons and a spare Illuvian
>>337002137
>>336985136
>good romance
>good plot
>good characters
>good dialogue
the games past origin/awakening literally have none of the above
>>337006901
Speaking of the sudden drop in quality from Awakening to DA 2, what happened? Did all of the good writers just leave the company?
>>337007417
They didn't leave, they got fired.
