The Drama Meter will show up in high-stakes scenes. It will tell you that the current scene is likely to have a meaningful impact on the relationship, depending on the outcome of the your choices. As you makes choices in the scene, the Drama Meter will shift towards one end or the other, almost like a see-saw. At the end of it, the Drama Meter’s result is converted into relationship points that improve or erode the particular relationship impacted by the scene.
