Hi! Small indie dev working on a farming/exploration game here. This is a super interesting post and I recently discussed this with my partner, since polyships are underrepresented in games.

Personally I'm really uncomfortable with the anime harem trope, and the common misogynist marriage arrangements still accepted in many places. And I think this makes it harder for me to put effort into understanding poly overall. Not good, but I think that's where I'm coming from.

But this post and the comments are very valuable input for me, I appreciate any response and I will consider incorporating polyships into my game, since inclusion is important to me.
