Val's route was my first route and it was pretty decent, as a straight male I still adore the romance within this route, despite some dragging, unnecessarily long storytelling, it was still fine.
But then my second route went with Garrett's, and the dragging writing started to affect the experience, it is so bad that I skipped through the latter part, and even lost my interest playing the remaining 2 routes but instead skipping them just for the Steam achievements.
I really feel bad to have done so when Dev's note mentioned that Garrett's route was their probably least fav, and i was supposed to play Val's at last, which was like slapping in my face and telling me that I am playing it in a totally wrong and opposite way, really unfortunate.
