I voted yes for everything, however I do not think it should be like in Fable III, which it did felt meaningless in (although I do love Peter Molyneux). But anyways, people are complaining that this piece of immersion would be wrong in the game, using "great" excuses like: I already have a girlfriend or go play The Sims 3 or something else stupid. Personally, I think there should be a few romantic options, they do say they are adding loads of companions to the game, why can't some of them offer different relationships than just as a henchman. I honestly don't think it would require that much effort (although they obviously want to do it right), and I don't know why Lionhead finds it so difficult to do. I think as a natural evolution to the series and game-making itself, this should be something Bethesda should look into, if not in Skyrim at least later on. Also, to the naysayers, if you look at any great fantasy novel or film, which is what video games in many ways try to replicate (or IMPROVE upon) there are always love stories and I think with any art, dramatic or emotional involvement is crucial, so "love," like Molyneux believes is something that should not be ignored. If you yourself can not fall in love, I would at least like to see some great relationships/interactions (like hugging, kissing, etc.) between the NPC's (especially now that there are children), so it doesn't feel lifeless and you feel as if you are saving Skyrim/defeating these dragons for a reason.
