Not as a rule but sometimes. The Witcher, I collected a few cards. The Witcher 2 I think I got them all including Triss. The Witcher III Nor so much except for the Brothels as you got XP. 2 points, but XP is XP. Then there was Yenifer and a couple others. Haven't pursued it in ME. Not aware of it being an option on any of the others I have played. Suppose someone may have come up with a Mod or two.
 
I usually start off taking an interest but I feel that they are such a poor representation of the real thing that they are a waste of time. However if there are XP or prizes then that keeps me going for a while. So probably not so different from the last few posters.

I always respect when games have restrict love lines based on in game choices. When you can do anything and then turn around and just butter up characters with copious amounts of gifts, it hurts the story aspect. I want my romance lines to feel genuine and enhance the story and not just tickle my lust meter.

Greetings and Salutations to all...first post.
I usually do the Romance thing just to get a break from the Grind.
Like ME 3 you are given an Apt. at the fabled Sunset Strip only to get more fighting, the Arcade...Boxing at Shattered Ezo, Shooting more of the same ole tired enemies to get a better score the Barla Von, I forget the name of the place, then only to meet Jack there for more Relaxation?!
If Battle and the Slaughter of her enemies is relaxing, it must follw that FemShep is a very relaxed individual! :LOL:
For me it is a nice break from all the inserted quests that usually come like someone just dumped a basket full of them out on the Bridge.
I really liked the Romance in DA, have most of those games except the newest, and Yes the Heart next to the dialogue helped immensely, the point of the spoken dialogue not fitting with the spoken lines in ME, 2, 3, is right too, who wrote that?!
Anyway thanks for the opportunity to voice my Opinion.

Sometimes. But lately rpg's rarely have characters who are interesting, attractive and romancable. Usually it's 1 or 2 out of 3. Like i wanted to romance Cassia in RT, but she was hetero and i were playing as a woman. And in Pathfinder 2, both characters that seemed nice to me (Nenio and... i don't know what's her english name, but in my traslation she were Charcoal) bot were not romancable at all. And in BG3 all characters were romancable, but also all of them were... meh.

Ember.

Nenio would forget the relationship was going on!
That was one thing that is very simillar between me and her. I also forgot stuff that i do not find interesting very fast, and unable to learn most of the stuff because of that. Like, no matter how much i study, it just gets deleted. The only difference is that she could chose what she deletes, when i do not.
