will there be any intimate relationships with any of the characters? Correct me if im wrong, but i thought i saw some chem between the MC and the blacksmith, and i just wanna be sure.
There's a 'relationship points' mechanic in the game right now, for the blacksmith as well as a few other NPCs. Relationships with them might indeed blossom, if you play your cards right...
...but that'll be in a future update. It's still early days for now.
