Poll Is there a lack of romance in video games? (288 votes)
This topic came to my mind when I was looking at Konami's survey for the Metal Gear Rising game on their webpage. They asked if there should be more 'romance' in the sequel.
And then I realized, that there is hardly any romance involved in video games nowadays. Most of them are too busy with saving the world type of scenarios. I for one can't recall any games at the moment where romance was the primary driver of the story or had a prominent role in the story. Mass Effect and Halo 4 probably and just a teeny bit in MGS4.
Why is such an obvious story material left out in video games?
