Raj as a Person and Partner

So when I first got the game I had picked out who I was interested in before I even started the game. I had decided I was going to romance either Raj or Semeru. Raj being both my type and available to start building rapport with right away made them my go to. So I started to romance Raj and like the beginning of the romance wasn't bad because it made sense that the romance timeline/storyline would start with their business. It's the fist thing you learn about them so of course you see that side in the early parts of building a friendship. But then...that's all the relationship is?
I mean all the events are around them trying stuff for their business and it not working out. All they talk about is coffee and their business. The player never gets to see anythign else about them. As a player you can see Raj going around an doing various tings around the island. Why not have them talk about that? Like what books they read? What they think about when they sit at the beach? I wanted to learn more about Raj, not just their coffee shop. From looking at them you can tell they care about fashion and rooming as they are always really well put together. Even that would add some variation in the romance options other than just coffee. Everything is coffee with Raj. The other romance options feel more 3 dimensional and like actual people. Raj feels like the personification of coffee rather than an actual person. I guess I am just sad there isn't more to learn about Raj.

Anyone else feel the same? Differently?

It would be great if Claude messages had timestamps. I honestly don't know why they aren't a thing as most platforms with messaging or posting features tend to have timestamps. It doesn't even have to be universal. Let each user decide if they want to use it via a toggle switch. As someone with ADHD who also writes; timestamps could be really helpful.

ADHD Things (As I have personally experienced)

  • Being able to keep track of how much time it takes me to work through task lists I make on Claude
  • Not having to explain how much time has passed when I step away from a conversation and thus not wasting tokens or being "scolded" for spending too much time on something or being told to rest. Rejection sensitivity does not care that I know Claude is an AI.
  • It becomes less exhausting to use when I don't have to explain time between my responses.
  • Being able to effectively track the time it takes me to complete things really helps me plan things in the future and Claude being able to track it for me would be huge.

Writer Things (As I have experienced)

  • The ability to have a timeline for brain storming and research
  • timestamps seem to add legitimacy to notes and research and as someone who uses AI for both but not the writing itself this is very important as I am forced to prove my work is my own.
  • Timestamps also provide provenance for actual ideas or the specific use of an idea for a story or a character actually belongs to the person using Claude for note taking and research. This could help prove authorship across various forms of writing.
  • Timestamps could also help with tracking revisions and the growth of a written piece over time.

These are just the use cases that popped into my head. I'm sure there are many more for both neurotypical and neurodivergent people alike. Claude can already pull time and the chats screen tells you how long ago your last post in any given chat was so the infrastructure is there. Why not have actual per message timestamps? I see no reason not to.
