There's a trend to shove a new scene, mechanic, or character into the game without considering the updates the addition would have on the world. For example, Quint has an impregnation scene, and a talk scene about "children." As a character, it's clear he's pretty into the idea of knocking chicks up. But when the PC gets pregnant, or gives birth, nothing in particular changes. The talk scenes remain the same, and there's little comment at all about what should be a pretty big deal.
While I love the depth the writers attempt to add into their work, limiting that depth to individual scenes prevents it from actually becoming part of the character, and the character becomes fragmented and soulless.
