We have a new patch for you and we've updated and fixed quite a bit. One of the big things here is we just took so much (I believe all) of the flirtatious/sexual advances out of the game. The feedback and general community consensus was that they were very poorly executed and there was not a good balance of them. We would have rather we did them right or not at all, and so now they are out of the game until we can do them properly.
Then there are also a lot of small bug fixes, quest polish, little bits and pieces that improve certain interactions, and a lot of changes to remove unnecessary or repetitious dialogue choices that didn't result in a different outcome for the player. Much of this is the result of the feedback and consultation with George and Olga, whose content/writing work will be coming in a future update.
WARNING: SOME SPOILERS INCLUDED IN THE PATCH NOTES:
