XYCat: "romancing" is literally just fanservice fluff that people started demanding more and more after games like Mass Effect that were one of the first to have actual sex cutscenes. That's why it's in every game now, not because it's a "significant part of the game".

midrand: I agree wtih OP. This is another example of not enough attention / workmanship to a key part of the game. Either do romances properly or don't do romances - that is always an option. Many RPGs don't have romances at all. Romance is an easy way to engage player into the story - it is easier in my view than designing and implementing a really interesting and deep character otherwise.
And don't forget that Cyberpunk 2077 has only 4 interactive hookers. Which is also not only an "example of not enough attention / workmanship to a key part of the game" but also a "disgrace", as another user pointed out in another thread here.

I quite frankly don't care whether hookers, romances, sex scenes etc. are in the game or not in their entirety. However if you decide to put a specific mechanic - be it hookers, police or gang fanctions - in your game, do try to make them look and feel less ridiculous. Yes, 4 hookers does feel absurd. Why not reduce the number to just one - sole joytoy of Night City could adapt to your preferred depiction of the sex worker (with the relevant item included in game settings).

The game expects you to be a floozy. Just flooze along to your next encounter and floozify them

I see that the discussion has come full predictable circle from flouting romances as "fanservice fluff that people demand" back to calling any mature content porn. Apologies, but I'm not going to praise this game for things it does badly. There are things CP2077 does well like story telling and visuals, but game mechanics including romances and sex sure ain't one of them.
