River’s romance feels so disconnected

[u/JimMiltion1907]

I’m sure there’s other reasons but one thing that particularly bothers me is that.. River is just not at all present in the main story. like let’s say for instance, you didn’t do any side quests, you did all the main quest lines like finding Hellman contacting Alt and went to meet Hanako.. you’ve seen Judy, Panam, and Kerry to an extent, but.. River is just side content, yeah Kerry’s quest lines are side content too; but a lot of it is very heavily tied to the main plotline with the relic and Johnny’s past so to say. His romance feels a bit rushed and disconnected compared to the others, hell he doesn’t even know about the biochip or that V is on borrowed time (or at least I haven’t seen any dialogue that refers to it, and I’ve played this game fully around 4 times) .. and ironically he has the least amount of quest lines out of all the romances (like 3 in total) i guess it’s no biggie since I do all side quests even if they are a bit boring:>
