Semeru last 2 hearts stays locked - ps5

[visual galleon]

Hello.

Is it normal that Semeru still have his last 2 hearts locked even though I gave him the medaillon? It is not ticked as given but I already gave him and I can hug him. When I try giving him it is saying that I already date him.
I finished all the quest available in the game. And usually when I give a medaillon then the last 2 hearts unlock.

Is it a bug or am I missing something? I play on ps5.

Here is an ingame video showing what I said.

Thank you for your help 😊

[toxic tide]

are you by chance married to someone else?

[visual galleon]

Yes I am but with the other one I can unlock until 10 hearts even though I’m married

For exemple after getting married I could give lockets and go to 10 hearts with 6 other villagers

[toxic tide]

dating after marriage was removed. so you cant give lockets after marriage.

[visual galleon]

When was it removed? Cuz 2 days ago I gave a locket to Scott and Lily and got to 10 hearts

[toxic tide]

was removed quite awhile back. you being able to give lockets may have been the bug.

[visual galleon]

Oh ok cuz I gave lockets to 8 people and 6/8 I could get to 10 hearts with only hugs of course

[toxic tide]

we do need to find out though for sure cause its being weird lol

[visual galleon]

I can try to give a locket to someone else and see what happened. I can make a video if it unlocks the last two hearts

[toxic tide]

here was the last thing they said on dating after marriage. u can see it was way back. they havent said they changed it to back to allow it.

[visual galleon]

Weird cuz I did with 6 people 😅

[visual galleon]

I just did it with raj as an exemple. I made a video showing everything. That I’m married with 2 kids I gave him the locket he said yes and the last 2 hearts unlocked

Here is the video

i did ping a dev asking as well. maybe we'll get an answer. also by chance are you using any mods?

[visual galleon]

Im on ps5 so no

[toxic tide]

oh right duh lol

[visual galleon]

I hope the videos I made will help them 😊

Oh and also when I do that even if I go the 10 hearts I can only hug. No kiss option is unlocked

But with Semeru the last 2 hearts stays locked but I can give him the locket and hug

Same thing with Denali. I could give her the locket hug but the last 2 hearts stays locked 😅

Hi everyone!
Yes, as VixiaChick shared above, that’s the current design for marriage and relationships with other datables. ✨

Regarding the issue where Merfolk datables’ hearts stay locked even after giving the locket—the team is aware and currently investigating this.

Thank you so much for helping us track this down, and feel free to reach out if you have any other questions! 🙌
