Bro, can you like, not bring that up here? It's bad enough that that thread has been flooded with that topic. With that being said, I have the uncanny ability to separate a character's paths/routes into separate entities, that don't influence my opinion or diminish my love for a character. I only play the path(s) I'm interested in, and to me, that's the version of the character that exist. I don't play games with certain unavoidable kinks/fetishes/character attributes, because I am not interested in it, but it doesn't bother me when these things are avoidable/optional.
I understand not everyone has this uncanny ability that I happen to possess, but it certainly helps me experience a broader spectrum and higher quantity of games, that unfortunately some people just will never give a chance.
