of course it would be interesting to have routes. But remember that this takes far more work then creating a linear route/path. Everybody would have to wait for three updates or so to get content for the path one is interested in.if there where routes instead of just linear path
And actually I like the way N_Taii creates his stories and gives alternative endings but actually sticks to the story he is telling. I never liked choose-your-own-adventure-novels like pictured in bandersnatch, where you jump from page 1 to page 233 because your decision brought you there and then again jump to page 45 and so on.
Still it's understandable that sometimes you wish for something else in the story or your experctations are not met. I myself for example did not like the whole magical potion thing in HC1. Still I find it is an awesome game and story because the rest was so good.
