I have to say first off that I enjoy the romances, I love how you do things that the companion likes and they go from gruff talk to sweet, lovey talk and each time you get Lover's Embrace your companion has something to say upon getting out of bed together. It's a cute and neat little addition to the game, but I can't help feeling like there needed to be something more to it. I applaud Bethesda for finally attempting to add romances to their games, which was better than Skyrim's - do one quest for me then lets get married option - but in Skyrim at least you did have the option to get married. I was so hoping that having your wedding ring and, hopefully not seeming too cold-hearted here, getting the wedding ring off your dead spouse, I was hoping for being able to use those to choose a companion and/or NPC that you liked above all else and propose to them. Unfortunately, it seems that not only are you limited to companions, but once you reach idolization stage with your companion and decide to enter into 'romance' with them, that is the end of it, nothing really special just and abrupt ending. Again, I'm happy that Bethesda is making the effort, but I would like to see them, possibly in an extra download or as part of DLC, to add more depth to the romances making them more in line with Black Isle's old romances(*remembers Baldur's Gate fondly*) with further quests once romance level has been set that will further player's relationship with said companion, and since you can romance more than one companion at once, jealousy between your romantic partners which come more to a head the further you advance your romance with each(just like in Baldur's Gate 2). This is not a post complaining about what's in the game already however(I love that sultry Cait), but rather a topic to express my desire as a possible idea to Bethesda for improvement into a realm they have apparently decided to delve, if only having just waded their toes thus far. Anyone else feel the same way, having looked and hoped for more content in that area?

I would LOVE for the romances to be expanded (DLC plz Bethesda). The companions were the best part of Fallout 4 IMO (coming from DA, this is my second Fallout game (haven't finished NV)), definitely better than the Elder Scrolls followers. I really hope they continue this trend with the next Elder Scrolls game.

As for jealousy, I know John Hancock hates it when you flirt with people in front of him whilst you're romancing him but he doesn't comment on it.

Wait, the wedding ring means nothing?

I would also like to see the companions personal stories (and your intertwined romances with them) to be continued. Some of our companions are in a rather.. interesting state following the endings we see through with them. The nature of our characters importance in the story, wouldn't really warrant a "Settle down with your follower and have a new kid with them" DLC. But going on a lovely adventure for two would.

I'd rather them build on these ones further then introduce new ones we can only use in an off-map locations.

I pryed my wife's one off her cold dead hands and skipped to the nearest merchant to sell them both.

I gave a ring to Piper and nether even got a thanks lol.

Me too, I was REALLY expected at least a comment about it.. but nope. Like it's another piece of armor.

Yeah, I was really disappointed about the ring, I thought for sure that their location and timing in the game had to have something important attributed to them, but apparently they're just that...a unique piece of armor with currently no benefits or use other than caps if you sell them

Disappointing. Another wasted opportunity by Bethesda.
