That's probably a factor, but I'd played the slave route in Books 1 and 2, and he didn't seem quite quite so nasty then (except to the Fire princess whose name has temporarily slipped my mind, but she thoroughly deserved it).hiya pal, i think the only route open in book four is the slave route at the moment which is why your experiance in this bookmay be so diffirent. i've only played the love routes up to this point in the game so i don't know how much of an arse mr awsome is supposed to be if you play this way, i share your view on the content though in the previous books and hope that when book four gets the love route it's up to the same quality humour and quick wit as the previous books.
