Why Korean Developer Didn’t Add Romance to His Game

Writers and developers often say “Write what you know” They act with the method. On the other hand, Troubleshooter: Abandoned Children This creates a problem for developers. Because players expect romance elements to be added to the game, but the developer team does not agree on the grounds that they do not have enough experience in real life.

Troubleshooter: Abandoned Children It is a tactical RPG game and has been available since 2020. The game, which currently has more than 8000 reviews on Steam, has an aesthetic reminiscent of JRPGs, but the complex relationship dynamics we often see in those games are not present in this game.

The studio’s response made me both laugh and sad.

of the game In one of the Steam comments One player asked why there is no romance system in the game. The response from the studio to this situation was tragicomic. Developer’s answer: “Appointment system… This is a feature that many people want, but my team members… have no experience with it, even in real life. Thanks for the review.” It was like.

Although comments are closed for this post, some 90 users commented that they found the response funny. The developer of the game dandylion Considering that the studio is based in South Korea and that young people in the country are moving away from romance, the company seems to be trying to be honest rather than trying to be funny.
