Hey, thanks! Your comment means a lot to us, especially since we are writers first and foremost!
It's always reassuring to have that kind of feedback, because it compliments both our writing and the quality of our translation. It's important for us to be able to reach you through these words!
As for the routes, we are happy to bring that diversity, and the more the VN will progress, the more each route will be different (even though we intend to have some similar events between the routes).
And don't worry about Maelbjorn, you have a whole route of handsome bear prince ahead of you!
