This game is getting... tedious, to say the least.
I don't think I have ever said a negative thing about any game here, it takes a lot of work and balls to put yourself and your work out there, and I appreciate that... but this many false "paths" all ending in failure... it's not fun. If you are forcing the player down a certain path, particularly when it may be against their play-style, just leave it on rails, don't give false choices; that just frustrates the player... particularly when there are so many choices with only 1 right combo...
You can dangle that carrot only so long before the donkey get's pissed... and the girlfriend was never that likeable to begin with...
