This weekend, completely out of nowhere, the player I had been playing the romance questline with decided she was done playing with me. She kept reassuring me that it wasn’t a skill issue, and that I’d basically been carrying the whole time, but she felt like she couldn’t see herself doing the endgame quests with me anymore. Of course I was devastated. We spent 2 years doing co-op together. We were just about to start the “move-in together” quest when she decided to end things.
It’s only been a few days but I’ve taken a significant number debuffs. My max stamina dropped like crazy, my hunger bar is doing this thing where it keeps disappearing and I can’t tell if I need food or not, and my character keeps doing this annoying emote where it drops to the floor and starts crying uncontrollably.
The only thing that makes the emote stop is if I put on a marathon of the in-game show “Family Matters” for six hours, which is all well and good but I still have to do quests for my employment guild.
I could use some tips from more experienced players for what to do when your coop player leaves unexpectedly.
