Sooo I got to 'that' story moment in episode 2 and erm... yeah.
I absolutely love Assassin's Creed Odyssey. But this first DLC is a bizarre betrayal of your character and the base game's mechanics.
After being given freedom to choose which characters you get together with romantically, and decide the sexual orientation of your character, the DLC forces you into a poorly written hetronormative relationship with a wet blanket, who you then settle down(!) have a baby(!!) with.
It's an absolutely bizarre choice just to try and tie the lineage of your character into that of Origins' characters.
The attempt to retroactively give in-character conversation choices for those who didn't want to pursue the relationship are stilted and slapdash, And I can totally understand the fan outcry over it.
