but yea i read some other's comment definitely Ferdinand's route is extremely broken. i think i will just move on to my 2nd pick gilles. I agree with one of the people saying that bugs could have started due to not doing exact things at certain times. so maybe eventually i will come back to his route and follow the guide exactly. for gilles route i'm just going to follow the guide because i don't want to risk another break with me doing what i want. i will let you know if things work after following the guides.
