Why are video game characters always single? Why can't I

play fable 2

Because it's not usually relevant to the story or gameplay

Pac man 2 lets you play the role of Pac Man doing chores for his family. It's not fun.

I feel the same way. Not enough games with husband/wife combination attacks. Some MMOs let you get married though, and generally you get some pretty neat bonuses to go along with it. FE: Awakening also lets you get married, and even has a Bride class you can give to your wife.

The Forest
>Be 10/10 dad
>Cave niggers steal your kid
>The whole game is supposed you trying to get him back
>It's actually Sims innawoods

>>376514315
I don't want any romance. No childhood love interest clinging to me. Not sluts throwing themselves at me. I just want to be free.

>Wanting to be married

Read that contract one time champ. Marriage is a fucking scam.

>>376514315


Because most games have shit writing and can't actually write a sad story without killing them off

>Game has a husband and wife
>You KNOW that they're going to be killed and your character is going to be crying about them the whole game.


At this point when any girlfriend,husband, father mother brother sister is introduced you JUST KNOW whats going to happen.

It's a cheap writing tactic to convey a "Oh no so sad :(" story.

m-MUh family Was KILLED i will avenge thEEEEEEE

There's also the kidnap trope where your children or significant other is taken and you spend the whole game trying to get them back. Both absolutely done to death by now.

You should play Genealogy of the Holy War. Sigurd gets married and lives a happy life.

Aww widdle lonely balding sack of shit got him widdle feewings hurted.

>>376516815
boggles my mind how not a single one of my friends think like this.. they all want kids at some point

>>376518238
Because every single one of your ancestors for the last billion years managed to reproduce, and then YOU came along. YOU are the short circuit, not your friends.

>>376514315
A romance where my wife sits at home while i do stuff sounds fucking boring

>>376514315
Red Dead Redemption
Fable 1-3
The Sims
uh...... I'm sure there's more
The main character is usually very young in most games, around early to mid twenties which is likely why they're not usually married.

Hmm.

>>376518238
probably because people see having kids as some sort of personal achievement instead of something they actually want in their lives
the amount of people who have kids and dont give a shit about them once theyre born is unreal , they just want to be able to add "i have a kid" to the list of shit they can brag about to seem interesting when theyre not

Maybe I should be concerned... But maybe not, considering the average age of this shithole is something like 16

Ah, there it is.

You never fail to disappoint me /v/.

How is your BLACKED subscription going?

>>376514315
Is that a WHITE woman? Married?? To a NIGGER???

This is why GAYMURR GURRLS are TRASH!

>>376519387
I don't pay for porn, but your mother's been worth the subscription.

>>376514315
Imagining her getting turned out by that bbc is making my lwd hard

Where do I find a black girlfriend?

Anywhere. Black women are all over white men. Can't resist the BWC

Because women are unintelligent and uninteresting. Thankfully we're probably close enough to the technological singularity that Trump will make anime real and 3dpd won't have a reason to exist anymore.

>>376519981
Then come to America or Africa. I don't know what European black girls do.

>>376519558
Black girls are fun and easy, the stereotype really should be black chicks are always fawning over white guys, sweetest people you'll meet, even the fat ones. White chicks don't go nearly as gaga over bbc than black chicks do with white guys.

How can you even be this worthless and disgusting of a thing.

How does black chicks wanting BWC more than white chicks with BBC make me a disgusting person

Because 70% of the RPGS are a coming of age story (almost all JRPGs), and the other 30% are a revenge story (almost all WRPGs). Both involve gaining and losing your mate, rather than having or keeping. Relationships simply fall victim to this forced setting. At most you could hope for a steady lover in these games, but marriage simply doesn't work with either setting unless it's the prologue or epilogue.
