Inquisition is drawing inspiration from games like persona and hopes to have a more realistic story driven romance this time around. In origins you could just gift someone until they had sex with you its not supposed to be the case with this game. The system is supposed to rely more on conversation, and assisting others towards there goals. So that characters in the right situation with the right interest might get together. Eight romances are avalibale but two of them are dependent on race.
It's pretty much the same system but with a slight twist. There's nothing wrong with that. Games have never really gotten romance right, and it's kind of obvious why. We're playing video games after all.
