I have zero issues with any of the orientations of the people in the game but I'm getting bored of all the high school relationship stuff in a game it wish was more focused on the adventure. Like I spend more time in dialogs than I do in combat. I'm not saying the game lacks exploring or combat, I'm saying the balance just isn't quite right for me.

So in my opinion the game spends too much time on relationships of any flavor. But that's just me, many many others love this game exactly how it is, and that's pretty great.

You're getting downvoted from one camp who disagrees that more diversity in a game makes it more "believable" and downvoted from another camp that will also downvoted me for disliking or criticizing the game at all. It's very popular, with good reason, and has generated a very strong fanbase. Suggesting anything is "overly focused" is not gonna fly.

That is what I was worried about. I loved playing Divinity 2 because of it´s focus on exploring and combat and never felt that I needed more love/sex/relationships in the game.

Some people obviously never learned how to debate. I did not even say that BG3 was overly focused on relationships, I in fact just asked if it was.
