If 'Favour' System becomes real...

Kiara:

Garuda's Response to people asking her out:

You'll have to be branded and become my personal servant before I go out with you. *everyone who agrees gets a green garuda tattoo on their upper back similar to the meteor survivors.*

Shiva's Response:

To have the honor of going out with me... you must first know thine own struggle. You must become an outcast, of all your family and friends. Once you have returned, I shall brand you, as I did others... and we shall take to the depths of the cold reaches of Hydaelyn, and there, we shall repopulate. Of course, I will have to turn you into solid ice once I'm through with you.

I want to marry Iceheart.

I don't care if it's forbidden love. I wish to be her warmth.

[Reokudo]

Oh yes, that would be lovely Then I can ride off into the sunset with Y'shtola.

[Gilraen]

You keep your damn dirty hands off my Ser Aymeric! He's mine!!

[Kiara1]

I thnk he would be very confused.

Titan: SONS OF MAN! MURDERERS OF MY CHILDREN!

Kiara: Titan senpai, will you go out with me???

Titan: I SHALL GRIND THEE... I'M SORRY, WHAT?

Kiara: Please go out with me, senpai!!!

Titan: ...

Titan: ......

Titan: ..............................okay.

Kiara:

Only if I get to have a harem. If the Miqo'te can do it, so can I.

Thancred, Aymeric, Haurchefant, Briardien and G'raha are all invited.

I would like to earn the favor of Kan-E-Senna or some other motherly lady.

Its too complicated to begin with. First you need level five: charisma, intelligence, and style before you can even trigger the flag event. You then need to ask Kane-Senna out after school and only on tuesdays and fridays. You also need to make sure to spend lunch together and make sure her favorite food is given to increase her affection. You will also need to make sure she doesn't conflict with the other girls you are dating if you want the true ending. Then at level 7 affection you need to choose if this is the girl you want to end the game with or go with someone else. Once you reach rank 10 affection you two will share a special moment together in your room and form an eternal bond.

....or you can just add them as a "Guest" in your party for solo content.

I think the storyline concerns would be the biggest thing, though there are other things that would make it difficult as well.

I don't see why it couldn't be handled the same way it is in Tales of Xillia 2: there are the default storyline cutscenes, and then if you've built up enough affection with certain characters, you get bonus scenes added to those cutscenes. They don't change or affect the storyline cutscenes in any way, they're just an added bonus.

You could do the same thing here. If you've built up affection with, say, Y'shtola, you would get a short bonus cutscene with her after a storyline cutscene.

Maybe a mentor system similar to Breath of Fire 3, where you pick a mentor and get a +5% bonus in an attribute.
