Fever_Discordia: Oh yeah, duh!
Talk of text adventures reminds me of Soft Porn Adventrure, which was remande into Leisure Suit Larry and now I'm thinking that no-one has mentioned Larry Laffer yet but you'll probably point out that ts in the second post down or something :P

chezybezy: has nobody said Fable 3?!
not to mention it was the first game to ever include same sex r/s!

tinyE: My 1st post mentioned it. Kind of. I typed LSL.

You could romance anyone in that game. Anyone. The problem was how your romantic partner was determined, it was done through an affinity with a character, that affinity could be raised by doing quests or, worst of all, by talking. So a lot of players found out to their dismay that even though they were hoping to romance the queen, the character they had the most affinity with was, for example, the innkeeper, because they talked to him 10 times more than anyone else in the game, since resting is how you heal your character.

To pour salt in the wound, the game treats us to scene of your character and his love interest making love in front of campfire just before the credits. So depending how things end up, it could possibly mean that your character was either gay or that sex was non consensual.

Finally, in post-game your love interest leaves their regular job and opens a small shop in your house. So if it was indeed the innkeeper, have fun never changing classes again since he won't be doing that job anymore.

EDIT: I assumed by your examples you meant romance options, not a predetermined love story that is part of the plot.

If that is what you meant, then I enjoyed Valkyria Chronicles. If only because they didn't do the "will they won't they" thing and they were together before the end, and when the end did come they fast forwarded 5 years and showed them married and with a daughter. Most games aren't willing to commit that much to a love story and stop with the "ride into the sunset, will they get together now?".

keeveek: I chose the blind chick for multiple reasons :P

If you don't have anything against manga-like visual novels, I really recommend you to try Katawa Shoujo - it's free!

KneeTheCap: Was it in Fallout 1 or 2 where you could get a shotgun wedding ?

shadowknight2814: Fallout 2.

KneeTheCap: And s/he was completely useless too :D

shadowknight2814: Wrong; if you FIRST max out your companions (assuming maximum charisma), they'll be added in PAST the limit (if you get the shotgun wedding before hitting the limit, they do count towards the limit). Throw them in some power armor, and they make excellent pack-mules. If you want to avoid combat on the oil rig, as long as you and all of your followers are wearing some sort of power-armor, they'll think you're all enclave and leave you alone.
