I like how different cultures have different attitutes when it comes to relationships. One thing I am curious about: Does character background define their culture? Because if so then I am thinking that this mod isa great opportunity to included a rewrite of the stock backgrounds (something the game desperately needs to begin with) to include clear notations as to what starting culture that will place that character into.

For example, a Medieval Lord obviously comes from a Medieval culture, but a Pirate Raider could be anything from Pre-Industrial to Glitterworld - so just having it say "[Spacer]" at the end of the description could help.

Once you do that I'm sure you'll notice that there is room for expannding cultures even further. A "Clone Vat Assassin" certainly sounds Glitterworld, but we could expand on that further to create a new culture type, "Clone Culture" that would include that background but could also add such backgrounds as "Clone Citizen," "Clone Doctor," "Clone Scientist," etc, with different skills. The point being that Clone Culture would always be Glitterworld level technology and automatically Asexual.

Then you could be cheesy and add "Amazon Raider" and the Medieval tech level that goes with it, along with an "Amazon Culture" in which females are very sexually aggressive and males are very meek & unagressive in comparison. Just throwing that out there beause it's obvious and proves a point.

Next you could have a "Missionary Priest" and have them come from a Prudish Culture where the chance of normal romantic interactions are minimal, but if they do end up in a relationship they're automatically faithful and are very quick to get married. And then this can be contrasted with a "Professional Playbeing" from a Hedonist Culture, which does the opposite - make them constantly seek romance, but fear commitment, and are very likely to cheat.

You could even include a culture for, oh I dunno, "Fauxhawk Culture" where no men are gay and all the women are secretely bisexual (but only if they're hot). People from that culture would have Industrial Age technology and suffer major social interaction penalities with both straight & gay women, as well as bisexual men, because they refuse to accept that such things really exist.

I'd like to reiterate that even backgrounds with no special culture modifications would still benefit from a rewrite, as even the same general career can end up with different skills based on the tech level of that carrer. For example, a Tribal level hunter would probably still be rounded out with a small amount of growing, medicine, and other useful skills mixed in. In comparison, a Glitterworld level hunter would be soley focused on shooting and maybe crafting to do their own gunsmithing (fewer skills, but higher level). Point being, again, that the same job description (background) can and should give different values at different technology levels.

One last note: I think there is also room for factoring drugs & alcohol into the relationship mechanics in very obvious ways, as well as creating new drugs that can increase or decrease relationship factors.
