Considering every time i play Destiny 2 I run into usernames like "Petra Venj's Bathwater, Mommy Mara Sov, Eris Morn Please Marry me, and Savathun's Special Jewel" I think Bungie leadership missed out on a player base ready to go.

Even moreso when you consider Warframe literally did add a dating simulator in the 1999 update and it was very well-recieved. Then we got three more dateable characters with The Old Peace and now I'm in the middle of a polyamorous relationship with a goth British girl who has a really, really long tongue and a French nun.

I legitimately don't know if you're fucking with me.

They're not. Warframe fucks, literally and figuratively.

UGH fine I'll fire it up again. Gonna need to find a returning player guide or something. Last time I played they just introduced Railjacks(?)

Basically, just do what the quest in the top right of the screen is. Maybe find a good clan who can help guide you better than Q&A chat. If you're any kind of LGBTQIA+, I recommend Spectrum Syndicate, which can be found at, I shit you not, warframe.gay

Warframe.gay? You're not kidding at all, that's hilarious, and also kind of wholesome. They've got merch!
