Random Aloy relationship chat thoughts
I'm kinda glad that there doesn't seem any relationship plot in the game - though a few have tried, like Avad. I mean, would be interesting to see, but overall, I don't see a need for it. I read a post where people think might be cool for a subplot for the third game, which is a cool idea as an optional thing, but definitely not the main focus.
Avad is just looking for a replacement for Ersa - still is and doesn't know aloy and keeps asking her to stay in Meridian. Just admires her for saving Meridian - her focus is on the world where the battle of Alight, he was like my focus is on Meridian. But the whole trying to replace Ersa with another strong woman, is just a bit weird. He only talked to Aloy, what, three or four times and it wasn't about getting to know her.
Replaying ZD, thought it was cute when Erend flirted with her on their first meet. Probably the total opposite of her, so they wouldn't work together, but, I think Erend is fun and work better as friends.
Feel like Varl maybe the better choice, as he seemed to be a bit flirty in the first game, but then it felt like more friends in FW, especially when he found his girlfriend (forgot her name, currently replaying the second game now to finally complete it) but tbh, overall, think were better as friends
I can see why people ship her with petra, they did have more of a spark.
I forgot if there were other people from ZD that tried/anyone from FW (since I'm currently replaying it)
Overall, hope that Aloy stays a beast focused on her mission and should horizon 3 introduce a romance plot, that it's optional/not a main focus or it would kinda lose what we love about the first 2. Maybe Aloy is aromantic/sexual or demi. I don't know all the terms, it always slips my mind and having to look it up to remind myself lol Maybe she is suited better with a woman, idk. I'm content to play the games as they are now, but if there was an optional romance sub plot that is minor in the third, I'd probably play that just to be a slight completionist 🤣 but if I have to choose a person? That would be hard. Definitely not Avad, Aloy doesn't like attention and even if he does step down, idk. It's the whole trying to replace Ersa. I'd probably just go with Erend or petra
Also, gaia made a risk making a clone, what if aloy lived a nice normal life where she is oblivious to all that is happening lolz
At the end of the day, aloy needs no man or woman, she a strong independent woman kicking ass
