"The heart has no bounds": A study of polyamory in games, how it's done well, and where we should go next

Whilst I read Dusa as a more 'queerplatonic' option, Megaera and Thanatos are clear about their intents with Zagreus, and it gives the game a solid foundation in which to explore both non-monogamy and kink - in a refreshingly honest way. "When it came time for Zagreus to have relationships with Megara and Thanatos - and how they interact at this point - it made sense to [go the polyamorous route], especially in this setting," Supergiant Games' creative director Greg Kasavin once told me in an interview, back in 2021. My favourtie thing about Date Everything's take on the situation is that you will need to act as a facilitator of sorts in order to engage in polyamory, unpicking a pyramid scheme for Celia and Florence, mending bad blood between Drysdale and Washford, or finding common middle ground between Harper and Dirk.
