How to Break Dirk and Harper Up
Players will need to break Dirk and Harper up before they can romance them. This can be achieved by choosing dialogue options that will make them angry with each other, or by highlighting how dysfunctional their relationship really is.

If all goes to plan, they’ll be able to romance Harper immediately after the pair split, and Dirk not long after.
