At first i was confused with the existence of Save Point, then i remembered that the game is actually a Single-Player Game, not a MMO. In essence that fact also make that horrible Marriage Proposal trap much more believable, lol.
It's like those stick-in-your-save-file trap the devs prepared for when Players do something unsightly, like stealing in old-school LoZ. But in this case, it's much worse and basically game-breaking. XD
