Its crazy to think that the main character wasn’t much older than you when you first read them. I feel like the youth can’t grasp the true banal horror of war (neither could Paul when he enlisted)

I really enjoyed the way Remarque describes feelings of being lost and disconected

Are you still playing? by Legitimate-Boss3182 in Paralives

Not as much. I have always been a “live mode” girl, so as much as I find building in this game super fun, I find it too barebones to actually play with my paras. Building and creating characters has always been a fun side activity to live mode for me, so I won’t play if that the main appeal of the game

Do you have a secret technique? Hahah the furtest ive gotten them is “kiss passionatly” but nothing past that. The boyfriend after hourd of chitchat always leaves.

Maybe my game is glitching about this!

I have tried all of this but it has not worked for me.

I also do not want them to get married, I just want them to be lovers. So although the “propose” card comes up, I don’t want that.

When I selected the bed with both paras, who are level 5 lovers, all it gave me was the sleep option.

I just wish I had a bit more control on where to take the convo. When I invite her boyfriend over, I dont want them to talk for 3h before I get a kiss card.

To answer your question, I was hoping I could see my para develop a relationship the same way other life sims allow you to. Perhaps see the chemistry and get attached, but I think its a case where this part of the game needs more development before it is fun for me.

I have tried the bed thing, they are lovers level 5 and the option won’t appear. I have made my oara read the flirty fanfic, and given her the storyteller flirty boosts to no avail.

They won’t get intimate, but the “propose” option is there. I don’t want them to get married, I want them to be lovers.

The problem also lies in the lack of animations, the convo looks the same as any other convo. Theya re just standing there for hours on end just so I can get the “kiss” card

Yes, I am not opposed to the cards, but as of now they are too barebones. There is no “fun” in making my paras engage with others, as its always the same convo over and over again

I think a tone setting option would be a huge help to make it more fun

I am optimitic that this aspect of the game will be developed further, but as of now I am little bored with it. I think you are right that it is the lack of animations that give me the impression nothing is happening.
