Romance. It comes in many forms: wine and chocolates, a bashful serenade, buying someone an expensive League of Legends skin (it was DJ Sona) - it's unique to the individual. But, in the wake of megahits like Baldur's Gate 3, love has become a core component of many videogames, too, including the likes of Dragon Age: The Veilguard and Digital Extremes' upcoming Warframe 1999. Inspired by '90s messenger apps and blossoming high school romances, 1999's system looks to be a fresh take on the traditional RPG dating framework, and I caught up with creative director Rebecca Ford and principal writer Kathryn Kingsley to chat all things amour.
