I'm not actually that up in arms about the game, but it's still the matter that you have to play these routes and you, as the player who would/could otherwise not enjoy these things have to go through it to get to the other two locked routes and if said player is like me who otherwise enjoys the plot, would be stuck with going through two uncomfortable routes with only one bearable one out of three. Especially since there's a certain order for the game to be played in to get the full extent of the lore. So real or not, it's still uncomfortable and can have a negative effect on people in some way, shape and/or form.
Yea it's alright. It's just the matter that I wish they went about the two differently. And the thing is is that all the other routes (Karma, Fritz and Waltz) are actually really good and I really liked them, but it gets so damn SOUR when, to get to the latter two, I have to play at least ONE other route and the other two options besides Karma are so damn uncomfortable to play. Doesn't help that in said routes, they try to play being self aware about the fact it's not really okay and is pretty taboo but 'it's okay cause it's true love!' and whatnot. I hate it
I can understand your frustration with having to finish the route that you are uncomfortable with. I think that many feel okay with his route because they are still unrelated and haven't grown up together, so many don't view it as incest. I personally liked his and Waltz's route the best, but to each their own!
The thing is is that both characters still see each other as family in and out of these routes. It's also the fact that all the characters realize that it'll reflect on the both of them so badly that it would cause an uproar from the public if it got out, hence their need to hide after all has been said and done. The MC even says that, blood or not that is still her brother so it's just,,, eugh. Doesn't help with the fact that because people don't think that step family/foster family still count as family, they can do anything or whatever (which, irl has led to real bad things, of which is why I say this could be really uncomfortable for people, me almost being a victim of this sort of thing for example) so it's just,,, so bad. so so bad
