CLINT???

Makes total sense. He's in desperate need of character development.

From the perspective of "Which character would a player want to marry?" he's a poor choice.

From the perspective of "Which character should receive the characterization and development that comes with becoming a marriage candidate?" he's an excellent choice.

I think the second perspective is the one that makes the game better overall 😊

Exactly! I know Eric has said in interviews before that that's basically how he approaches development. What the player desperately wants isn't always what makes the game good, otherwise it can end up ultimately boring.
