I am in CH3, just got there. She has been at max affection since CH2.... I STILL cant get her to date me, and I have to go do her final companion quest.
Spoilers.
I have tried everything I could to date her. I get things like,"I'm just not ready" to "I dont date in the workplace, but if I did, it would be you." to, her wanting to work on her shooting and show me. I had one scene where I was asked what mattered the most to me, and I said Mako. She looked at me flabergausted and asked me "really?"
do I have to kill Coral for her to date me finally? She knows I like her, and she has TOLD me that she likes me, and I take every flirt option, but the "lets take a vacation to my bed" because I said that and I got minus affection, so I restarted the conversation and said lets take a vacation alone together. And... She keeps talking about how we can once Coral is taken care of... We can finally take our vacation together.
Also, in CH2, when I had to go to my party at the casino, she begged me, if we could go, not as couple, but as friends, and I said Its a date and she basically told me that while she does like me, she just wants to go out and have fun with me. UGH...
My partner, whom I play with, is playing an inquis, and has Ashara up to 6k affection, and she has released her krakken with him, and most recently she proposed to him. It seems like mako is a prude, or just a damsel that I have to save from her sister before I get past first base?
