>Actually if you had read any VNs apart from KS you would know that it's very easy to do with proper writing.

No, it's not. In those VNs the personalities of all people involved are within the "plausible relationship" threshold; which is why you have one "story" with multiple possible outcomes, and the impacts of each choice are usually a lot more subtle. That subtlety requires the greater skill. I'm not surprised that KS didn't do this, because they were amateurs, and with one writer making each "route" the co-ordination would have been damn near impossible. What KS is, is about as good as it could have been given how it was made.

It's no surprise that people who've played the real good ones produced by the masters of the genre look down on it, when you consider that.

>And relationships depend on a lot more things that "personality compatibility".

Like what, exactly? I've done a lot of writing myself; over 200 pages worth in one of my stories alone; and I've read my fair share of published authors and even those same authors advice on writing, and I don't know of many who would agree with you on that.

If you mean "viable romantic relationship" however, then yes, you're entirely correct - the wrong event at the wrong time, or the right one at the right time can make all the difference. Momentum is crucial in a relationship, after all. Those are usually the devices VN authors use to tilt things one way or another.

Well, I tried.
